A gem! The menu is one of a kind and EVERY dish exceeds any expectations. The staff is above and beyond. They not only work there they are a reflection of the restaurant. Friendly, knowledgeable, and inspired. I especially enjoyed the table cover: a blank canvas for all ages to create and engage together It is not often you meet and engage with owners at most places, but here at Roni's Marty interacts with his guests and truly loves what he does. There is something for everyone from sandwiches to salads and an EXCELLENT dessert menu (cannolis were exceptional)Prime Rib Thursdays are my favorite. IT IS BY FAR THE BEST PRIME RIB I HAVE EVER HAD! Thank you Roni's for filling my tummy, my heart and my soul read more

Ronis West - CLOSING 31 JULY 2026 They officially announced (website & Facebook page) that they will be permanently closing their business. Sad to see this happen, my family has truly enjoyed and appreciated this business. Wishing them and all their employees the best of luck in their future endeavors. read more

I came here on Saturday for an early dinner with my family and had an okay experience. Ronis is located in a strip mall and the interior was nicer than you'd expect from the exterior. The inside is decorated with modern paintings. The tables looked nice with what seemed like white table cloths that were actually white parchment paper over a black table cloth. They also had fresh flowers on the table which were nice. Our waiter was okay. We used the groupon- the meal for two and got an additional entree since we had three people. When we asked about the groupon and possibly using 2 groupons (you can't, which was fine), our waiter got a little less friendly but still answered our questions. The groupon included wine. There were three of us and I was the youngest person in the group. He didn't ask for us or me for an ID but stood there, and after a minute, he said he wasn't leaving before he checked my ID. It was a bit strange he didn't initially asked, I would've just taken my ID out right away. As for our food, the meal for two included a salad, garlic bread, two entrees of spaghetti and meatballs- but we got 1 lasagna instead, and an order of cannolis. We also got a shrimp capri. The salad and garlic bread were fine. The pastas looked okay but once we started digging in, it was apparent the pasta was overcooked, or at least very soggy and had a lot of water in it. We could tell from looking at it but you can also taste it. We told our waiter and he said it was because they make the fresh pasta in house and they cooked it before serving. I have had fresh pasta many times before and it wasn't just because it was fresh, it was overcooked. The flavor was okay. The best thing we had was the garlic bread. Overall, we didn't have the best experience. read more

Having grown up on the east coast and enjoyed Saturday nights in New Haven at their park concerts, we were sooo looking forward to coming here. But it was a bust. We didn't finish any of our food. It was either, over cooked, burnt, or just uneatable. My pasta sauce must have been reheated several times. Because it was no longer any shade of red, but black. My wife's Chicken must have been cooked in rancid cooking oil. See photos. read more

This restaurant is honestly under rated. I had an amazing time here and the head chef came out to ensure that. Little did he know, we were a bit disgruntled after driving 2 hours and waiting almost another 2 across the street for some BBQ food - but little did WE know that we were in for a treat. By design if you ask me. We had the bone marrow, roasted garlic, Caesar wedge, elk fettuccine, lamb pop's with mint jelly and the beignets. The paired wine was splendid and we finished off the night with a pour of Hogsworth with the Chef. What a night we had! The cutest authentic Italian restaurant with date night/family vibes. Worth the drive and I CANNOT wait to go again. read more

Mother's Day 2025: My awesome & loving family treated me to a delicious lunch. Reservations are a must! We used to frequently eat here when it was formerly known as the Chef's Grille. It has a warm, inviting, and rustic decor. It does well as an upscale Italian eatery offering culinary delights. The food was incredible! I ordered the gluten free chicken pesto dish, which I would order again. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive to our needs. My family agreed the food was excellent & a return would be in order. Thank you to Chef Martin & staff for making this a rather toothsome and memorable dining experience for Mother's Day! read more

We went here foe dinner with our neighbors. It was eerily quiet for a Wednesday evening, but oh well, we still enjoyed ourselves. Service was amazing and so was the food. We ordered the Garlic Bread appetizer (delicious) along with Meatballs Marinara (yummy) with Ronis homemade Lasagna as our entrée. To take home, we ordered the Cannoli Siciliano...divine!!! A fabulous meal and good time had by all. Highly recommended read more

GO BRUINS!!!!! TORTELLINI ROSE: Was so rich and creamy! It was the star of the show! FILET PASTA: Hubby said he thought the sauce was watery and the meat was chewy but, the service made up for it... WILD MISHROOMS: Great starter! I love mushrooms with arugula salad. ROCK ON RONIS WEST! read more

Food.. was very good , tried the Bleu Balls with blueberry chutney and garlic bread with Marina. Both excellent. Filet medallions with pine-nuts over fresh fettuccini medium rare was very rare. So order medium. Service was Great!! What really stood out to me was the busser, Mason . He gave exceptional service. He was the greeter, checked on us constantly and didn't miss a beat. Appreciates Him. read more

We stopped by for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The reviews looked good so I was excited to try it. It was a quaint little place and not busy at all. We were seated right away by a friendly waiter. We ordered the garlic bread which came out hot and delicious. Great start! I ordered a shrimp pasta and hubby ordered a steak pasta. Both were good but nothing super memorable. There are still a few other things on the menu that I'd like to try. The service was great so we'll definitely give them another try. read more

I've been dining at Chef Martin's establishment for over four years, and it never disappoints! Portions are great and prices are reasonable. There's never a compromise to quality here. If you're looking for an exceptional dining experience, look no further. I love that the menu has something for everyone...gluten-free garlic bread, and a selection of Italian dishes you simply can't find anywhere else. I love the bleu balls, mussels in lemon pernod sauce, sautéed wild mushrooms, lamb osso buco, giambotto stufati (if you don't know about this dish, you should ), and smoked pork chops. The parking lot made for a convenient arrival. Consistent quality, great service, and a unique menu makes it my top pick in the area - hands down. If you're tired of the predictable menus elsewhere, Roni's is a breath of fresh air! read more

Amazing service and food! We've been here twice and Jessica has been our server both times. This last visit we decided to sit outside because it was way too warm for us to sit inside, but we still received great service on the front patio. The host and busser on duty were very accommodating as well! read more

We just found this amazing restaurant. The food was to die for. This is some of the best Italian food I've had in the USA. The portions are very generous. The ambiance is wonderful. The service is excellent. We got to meet Chef Martian who happens to be the owner, he prepared our food. Like I said it rated 40 thumbs. Daniel was our server who was johnny on the spot and one of the best waitress in the world . Would we return? Yep we will. Oh on Tuesdays they have live music . read more

Was our first time and we're definitely coming back. The bread for both the mad Italian and the bruschetta were crispy in the outside and so tender in the middle. Big, savory, and bright Italian flavors. Greg was our server today and was so kind and helpful. Very knowledgeable with the menu making our experience so comfortable. Definitely coming back for a Wednesday date night special! read more

Ronis West - The Mad Italian - Italian Near Me - Murrieta, California

Did this place change ownership?? My husband and I loved it when it was Chef's Grille, but this last time was just... not good! We ordered for pick up and honestly, the only positive thing I can say is that my order was ready when I walked it at the exact time frame they gave me. Other than that, it was bad. For $81 we got meatballs, chicken piccata and the filet minion pasta. The portion size was laughably small. The noodles for both pastas were way overcooked. Like chef boyardi mushy! Also, the food was just bland. We're so disappointed and won't be visiting this place again. read more

This was our first visit tonight. This is like a little secret type place we have passed by a few times a day. They had a lot of items on the menu to choose from. We started off with a beer and an old fashion. We chose the meatballs for an appetizer and they were so good! They were two nice sized meatballs served with a yummy bread. We then chose our entree and we both chose the ribeye steak and missed out on the prime rib which is only served on Thursdays. I ordered my med well and it was perfect! The butter on the steak was a blue cheese with mushroom butter. Our meals were served with asparagus and garlic mashed. The whole meal was perfect and we each brought half of our meals home as they were generous servings. All of the food was fresh, hot and cooked perfectly. Our waitress was Jessica who was so helpful with suggestions and gave excellent service. Tonight was open mic night which we were not able to stay for but it looked like fun. Not sure if it was the owner? roni? But there was a nice gentleman who was out and about and wanted to know how our meal was! We will definitely be back and will recommend to neighbors and friends. Can't wait to go back and try some other items. read more

The food was great! Zero complaints there. Our waiter was kind and attentive, however, the rest of the staff started cleaning up and collecting table cloths and lamps from empty tables an hour before closing. I would've given Ronis a 5/5 if it had not been for the early cleanup. It made me and my party feel rushed. Overall enjoyed my experience and would come back, though! read more

My family and I went there yesterday. We didn't have a good experience service was bad. We had reservations they sat us in the back. And it took 20 minute for a server to even acknowledge us. There was only 2 servers the male server kept checking on the 2 tables next to us and never even acknowledged us. Until the female server asked us any one had been by I said no. She came took our order. The only thing that was good that we got our food about 7 min after we put our order in. The food was ok but not for the price tag. My husband order chicken Parmesan with no flavor at all. My son got the chicken Alfredo which it was ok not the best. The only item we all liked was the Tortellini rose. We would not be returning to this restaurant ever again we didn't have a good first time experience. read more

Had such a great time celebrating my birthday at Roni's West last night!

Absolutely the worst Italian restaurant I've been to. There is nothing authentic about this restaurant as they claim. They don't even serve you bread. Extremely overprice. If you want good Italian food go to Carini's or Nonno's. read more

Roni's west formally known as chefs grille! Food was great we had the appetizer garlic bread yum! The kids loved their spaghetti and meatballs. The mad Italian sandwich was packed full of flavors, I just wish it was bigger. We also had the chicken Marsala and that was a great dish as well. Service was great from Robin even though she wasn't our actual server. Restaurant is nice and clean with a mellow vibe. read more

Chef Martin Corso has raised the culinary bar with this wonderful restaurant! Authentic Italian entrees and desserts are one of a kind. Went with a party of 5 total and we each had a different dish. We started with the garlic bread and it was amazing! Our server Greg was knowledgeable, helpful and a great personality. The homemade pasta really brought the dishes up to another level. I usually only have cannoli for dessert but we tried the limoncello cheesecake on recommendation from Greg and it was heavenly, very light and great limoncello flavor. We travelled from the city of Orange for this restaurant specifically and it was worth every mile we drove and will make the visit again. Highly recommend! Ciao read more

I'm not sure how this got good reviews. I ordered gluten free pasta and the gluten free garlic butter bread to go and it surprised me on so many levels. 1. The pasta was barely cooked. It was still hard. The sauce barely made it in. 2 The portion was like kid size. The pasta and the bread. Nothing like the picture 3. I'd rather buy a frozen meal and microwave it than eat this. read more

My personal visit was incredible. Anniversary dinner with my wife, last minute choice we did not regret . We sat at the bar. Had some very well prepared cocktail's. My lasagna was delicious and stable. It wasn't sliding or falling apart and it wasn't just a bowl of lasagna soup (iykyk) . The Cesar salad was just right also. Can't wait to go back! Our server was so nice and she made us some perfect Manhattan's ! read more

We recently visited Roni's and had a fabulous meal! Martin was an engaged host and treated our family, like family! Their focaccia bread is some of the best pre-meal Italian breads I've had and ours meals and desserts were all great. We've visited several "popular" Italian Restaurants in the area and my husband has not cared for the food, almost too authentic is my guess, but Roni's had a "contemporary" taste to even his liking, and commented that the lasagna was the best he's ever had. read more

We truly enjoyed the atmosphere at Roni's West. The staff was phenomenal, and the food was out of this world. I had the lasagna, and my wife ordered the filet mignon pizzaiola. For our appetizer, we tried the Bruschetta del Giorno--absolutely delicious. What made the evening even more memorable was when we asked for the check. A gentleman sitting behind us, whom we didn't even know, surprised us by paying for our dinner. It completely caught me off guard and left us both touched. Whoever you are, please know your kindness did not go unnoticed--it was very heartwarming, and we are so grateful for your generosity. To the amazing staff at Roni's West--thank you as well. You made our night special, and we'll see you again soon. I already told Susan we're coming back for my birthday this month, and we're bringing my brother and his girlfriend to share the experience. Thanks again for everything--ciao! read more

The problem at Roni's West doesn't just come from the staff--it starts at the top. The owner sets the tone here, and it shows in how poorly customers are treated. If management cared about hospitality, the staff wouldn't act like serving people is beneath them. When we tried to get a simple correction on an order, instead of fixing the mistake, the response was rude and dismissive--as if the customer is always wrong. That kind of attitude doesn't happen by accident, it's a reflection of the owner's priorities: profit over people, arrogance over service. Plenty of restaurants manage to serve good food and treat people with respect. Unfortunately, at Roni's West, the owner seems more interested in pushing customers out the door than building loyalty. Until the leadership changes, this place will keep mistreating guests--and losing them. read more

First time here as we moved up to Murrieta about a year ago. Atmosphere great to start! Our food server was Jessica and she was AMAZING! Friendly and informative and just great service and she never let our drinks be empty before offered refills. The food was great, my wife had the Seabass and I had the Chicken Marsala (which is my favorite and this didn't disappoint). I was in the restaurant business for years when I started my career, it takes a lot to impress me but my wife and were both impressed. The top rating is because Jessica was great and fun. Just made it an overall great first visit. Highly recommend and ask for Jessica to serve you. Cheers read more

We tried out Ronis tonight for the first time and not only was the food really good and fresh but they were also so kind and accommodating for us since we brought our pup. They put us on the patio and brought him out a big bowl of water without us asking. The manager also came out and kept trying to make friends with our boy. Great service, good food, and they made our pup feel welcomed. I couldn't ask for more. We will be back! read more

Chef M--Nothing was experienced because we had reservations from your website on Christmas Eve for a special dinner as our son was in town. We were lucky that we could find another place that was open and had a table for us last minute! Your apology was probably sincere at the time but I have no incentive to visit your restaurant again. And you are commenting a full nine months after this happened! Glad you fixed the problem. The review is staying up. read more
