Food & service is amazing. Pricing is reasonable and comparable for the area we live, and the ambiance is comfortable and refreshingly different than most offerings these days. read more

Wonderful dining experience! I loved the interior and the feel of being taken back in time to the early 1900's! Food was great too, and the service. Allyson was super nice and was very patient in taking our photos. Will definitely come back when in the area! read more

We have been dining at Scopazzi's for 40 years now. We have celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, and taken out of towner's for meals here. The staff, and food have been consistently great every time we have dined here. The bar is an excellent place to meet with friends and enjoy appetizers. It's really nice to have a restaurant this great so close by. read more

Ok, came back here one month later for birthday dinner. Ordered Capellini seafood pasta and requested it be prepared with a red sauce. It was delicious! This is one of the most accommodating restaurants I have ever experienced. We had some special dietary requirements that were graciously accepted and supplied. What's really awesome is the service is incredible. Other restaurants should send their wait staff here to see how it's done. We will return as often as possible. Kudos to the chef and staff. read more

I love this place. Have been going there for years. We moved out of state but this place is one we always visit when traveling. The people are awesome. read more

The food and service was great. I ordered a veggie burger and it was awesome! The ambiance was ok. read more

Old school dining in the Santa Cruz Mountains! The bar is fun and the wait staff dresses professionally. The service, food, and ambiance are all above average for this area. I love that you can dress casual or fancy and feel like you are in just the right place! I definitely recommend the Caesar salad, prepared table side or the nightly specials. read more

Get a drink here, but eat elsewhere. This place would be expensive for San Francisco and the food is not made with love. The chef has clearly never had real Italian food before. Italian food is simple ingredients done well, so I don't know how you can charge this much for what I ate (eggplant parm) without knowing you are ripping people off or being an incompetent cook. Im Italian, I've eaten a lot of Italian food at home and at restaurants, and this was clearly off. Super cool interior and worth checking out but again, but don't eat here. If everywhere else is closed, go down to the grocery store and get some chips as opposed to eating here. read more

Great food and great. Staff warm and welcoming. The place really nice with its decor. Dog friendly as well!

Love the atmosphere. My whole family loves the food! The duck is great...or so says my eight year old!!!

What a delightful surprise this place was. It felt like stepping back in time. The ambiance is lovely, the service was fantastic, and the food was delicious! We will definitely be back. read more

The atmosphere was quaint. The food was subpar. The service was decent. There wasn't anything that makes this restaurant stand above the rest. The green beans in the steak dish tasted like it can't from a can. I ordered a cream of broccoli soup but the waiter brought a minestrone. We also ordered bruschetta but we never received it. The bill came out to be $90. It wasn't worth it. read more

We moved to Boulder Creek almost 10 years ago and go to Scopazzi's frequently. We usually go for dinner - fantastic pastas, steaks, soups, salads, and drinks. We love their filet mignon, cedar planked salmon, clam chowder, and Caesar salad. We also have pasta quite a bit and love the creamy pesto, Gorgonzola ravioli, and fettuccini Alfredo. We've been for brunch a few times and enjoy their eggs Benedict and omelets. We especially enjoy the staff and the atmosphere. Scopazzi's is a very unique and special place to us and we highly recommend them! read more

We came here for our anniversary dinner. Food was excellent. We had the veal and raviolis, friends had the Steak and lobster. Bananas flambé for dessert.. all was great. The staff was very accommodating and our waitress. Aaron made us feel very special. Thanks for the great experience. read more

Just had dinner there last night, and I have to say, whoever cooked my filet mignon did it absolutely PERFECT! It was so tender and juicy. Just perfect. In fact, everything was delicious! The creamy artichoke soup was divine, the gnocchi were soft pillows of goodness, and the bananas foster was the perfect fiery end to the night. I love coming here on a cold night and getting cozy by the fire with a cocktail. One of my favorite spots! Great service from Alan and the whole crew, great drinks, and great food! read more

My First Time here. It was Recommended By A Friend so I Drove all the way from Monterey. What a Great Drive tho Curvy and Driving at Night.

I ordered Clam Chowder Then Veal Scallopini It was Delicious Tender Good Portion For Dessert Chocolate Angel Strata Pie.

we had a great lunch this thursday at Scopazzi's in bolder creek. great environment, wonderful food, and the real treat was GRANT our waiter. after the meal i complemented GRANT when he shared with us we were his very first customers. he was a busboy at the restaurant for sometime and thursday was his big opportunity to become a waiter. his energy, his humility, and his loyalty to the owners of Scopazzi told us a lot about the restaurant. i tip my hat to the owners! cheers, Barry read more

We had another superb experience at Scopazzis on December 23, 2021. We had a reservation and were able to sit in front of the fireplace! We were given excellent service from our favorite waiter, Allen. He always steers me right in making a selection! Finally I tried the Pepper Fettuccine- it's fettuccine Alfredo plus prawns, ginger, and cilantro! Amazing flavors !!! I highly recommend this unique dish! read more

Food: not that great. Maybe it was just what I ordered. But, the service from Adam was excellent. Our group left happy. I think he was a bartender, but still took the extra step to help a server out during a rush and served us. He was super nice and drinks were filled consistently before I even noticed they were low. 10/10 experience read more

We love Scopazzis for the incredible ambience and delightful cocktails. Food is yummy but not mind blowing. We love to come for a cocktail and a couple apps. There's nothing like that dining room! Incredibly kind and helpful service. read more

Scopazzi's hits a home run for 12 of my staff and I. We had great service and everyone enjoyed their meal. Thank you so much!

Great service, yummy food! Dining rooms & outdoor seating is nicely appointed. Been going here for years, a must stop if you're in the area! read more

This was our first time there and loved it. The food was great, as well as the service. We I'll be back.

Fine Italian dining in a tranquil ambiance. Inside as well as outside in a beautiful garden like setting. Service is super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu! Love it and our most regular spot here in the mountains. read more

We've been eating here for 18 years and have never been disappointed. It's by far the best restaurant in San Lorenzo Valley! The ambiance can't be beat, service is impeccable, and the food is always delicious. We love the oyster Rockefeller, Caesar for two, minestrone, and all of the mains are good but we especially love the filet mignon. It's like butter! Don't miss an opportunity to eat here if you are from out of town. And if you're a local PLEASE support them as often as you can so we can keep them in business! read more

Holy cow! How have I missed this place! Off the hook!! Let me say, if you're all caught up in cold atmosphere's, chefs that will only visit your table because you dropped a $grand$, and want to impress some wannabe Insta model, better pass. But if you're looking for a dining experience and don't mind a couple curves on 9 vs driving to SF and dodging human feces to get you your special spot, hit up Scopazzi's. Now. Pepper Steak is prepared at the table, as is Bananas Foster and Cherries Jubilee. And that's just what I experienced. This place is a throw back to DINING where you feel special, not part of the 'scene'. Staff was great, bartender knew the difference between killing a Manhattan by shaking it vs. stirred, and the chef was there to be sure everything was on point. Don't miss this... our food was amazing... and I'm going back as soon as I can. 6 out of 5 stars. read more

Love it! Want good food, good service, good bar and very lovely ambiance? Scopazzi's! Also Sunday brunch is delightful and you can sit outside in the sunshine. If you live in the valley you've probably already eaten there because duh! If not, I recommend having dinner there and taking dessert home because you'll be too full. They give you lots of bread and butter or oil/vinegar to keep nibbling on and cocktails to sip on while waiting for food. Then they'll give you lots of good food! We always wanted to try the cherries jubilee or bananas foster because they do the fun tableside display with the flames, but we were always so full and tired after dinner. So we decided one evening on a whim, after an early dinner, to drive down (5 minutes away) just for dessert. So fun! Desert and an aperitif...how quaint! Gosh I hope they stay in business because this valley needs and wants them. Please go...you will be pleased and they will keep doing what they do. The only reason Im docking one star is because there is a bit of inconsistency in food and/or service. But not much. read more

Since 1915, this place has been in business starting as a loggers stop to tourist hotel, and finally after change of ownerships to become Scopazzi's restaurant from the golden ages. I hear it was open during the true prohibition ages and I can feel the old spirits hanging around. I had venison with shiitake mushrooms as our server said its not gamey. It was definitely gamey but I liked it since it was soft & medium rare tenderness. I also tried the pickles, scallops, minestrone & steak. All were good and the company as well as the ambiance of Scopazzi made the dinner experience really nice. The carts going by and antique froufrou calmness of the 50s was a different kind of secretly cool. The servers are friendly & kind, but don't come if you're not into this type of scenery or hipster. It's probably not what you're looking for. Live piano, fireplace, nice wood hostess table etc all hidden in Boulder Creek. read more

Food tastes microwaved. Chicken parm had a kraft singles slice and sauce tasted jarred.

The service was outstanding. They allowed us to tweak our orders and order lunch items off the menu. I have been here a few times and each time was fantastic. Even had Bananas Foster at lunch. We ordered unusual cocktails, items not on the menu and had a wonderful time. Delicious food! read more

Very average food and drinks. The server forgot our utensils multiple times. The restaurant itself is very charming though and felt very lively! Nothing special about the food though. read more

During the two year pandemic, I appreciated whenever outdoor seating was an option. Portion sizes here are good, and the interior seating decor will take you back in time a bit. Whether on a date, or enjoying a family dinner, there is something for everyone. I enjoy the Caesar salad, and on Saturdays their prime rib special. They also provide holiday options, so be sure to check their website. read more

20 + years I've been coming here. It's a drive well worth it if you are visiting or live in Santa Cruz. Just a few miles up in Boulder Creek. It doesn't look like much from the outside but the inside is gorgeous. Very beautiful at the holidays. read more

The bar is good and cocktails are well made. Food however... Large portions of elaborate sounding food that has mediocre (I think frozen) ingredients and heavy sauces to make up for it. If you want to take grandma to an expensive place with nice tablecloths, attentive waiters and a tableside flambé cherries jubilee dessert presentation then this is the place for you. If you want quality pasta, meats or seafood, keep looking. read more

Had a wonderful lunch salad here. They allow you to split and the food was high quality, beautiful presentation and large portions. Lovely ambiance, lots of history. Charming patio. Wonderful waitress took amazing care of us. Will return soon. I hear the bar is worth visiting! read more

Bit of a drive but so worth it. Kind of old school but the food is delicious. Raviolis with Gorgonzola is the best

Amazing food, amazing experience. Everyone was extremely helpful. They really know what they're doing. Best food in Boulder Creek.
