Great food service and ambiance! Am absolutely coming back. Great date night spot. Reservations are definitely recommended!

Thank you for amazing service and great food. Scott was so kind and thoughtful. Came here on a whim and now our favorite place in Upland. It has been a rough week just casually speaking about life with Scott and the staff made us feel so uplifted. read more

Nice cozy restaurant located in an unassuming strip mall. Nice service too. Very impressed that our server memorized all the specials ...there were at least 4 specials, and how they were all are prepared. Osso Bucco was EXCELLENT !!! Chilean sea bass is delish too. Started out with their Calamari which is wonderful too! read more

Yikes what a TERRIBLE food experience here. Totally ruined our date night. No complaints about service, but super disappointed in every single food item we ordered. We started with the Wagyu Beef Truffle Ravioli for appetizer. First of all, I don't know why you'd take such beautiful Wagyu Beef and smush it into a crispy ravioli. Second of all you could not even remotely taste the truffle. That kind of beef should be showcased, not hidden. For entree I ordered the Lobster Ravioli which was wayyyy too creamy. It was so heavy that I could barely even eat one. I know the sauce they were trying to make but they really missed the mark. My husband ordered the Rigatoni which was candy level sweet. Neither of us touched our dishes. For dessert we ordered the Chocolate Soufflé which we told our server ahead of time assuming it takes time to prepare. She said it doesn't take long at all. She was right, because that was nothing like soufflé. Soufflé should be light and airy, this was more like chocolate lava cake, thick and dense. We should have taken it as a warning when the place was totally empty on a Saturday night. Needless to say we won't be back!! read more

Great menu selection! Great service! Never disappoints! Good place to go for fine or more formal dining. Dress up or less so; just enjoy! Owner and staff always makes one feel welcomed. Don't forget some great wine with that great meal selection! It is difficult to eat everything, but there are take home boxes, so look at appetizers and desserts!. read more

WOW I never expected this tiny hidden gem to be so good!!!! I never expect much from Inland empire restaurants but this place is LA level! They have their menu AND daily specials which are really unique! Sometimes they even have sashimi as a special which is really delicious. Their food is amazing and freshly made, but the highlight of my experience at spaggis is the owner/waiter who gives you a great 5 minute talk and welcome to the restaurant by talking about their daily menu specials. The first time our table was welcomed by the owner, we were a little shocked because we've never had an experience like the owner gives you. And btw the prices are unbelievably cheap for such good quality fresh Italian food read more

went for a birthday. we walked in and they had a few tables that were not reserved. seated promptly. our waiter's name was zach (unsure about spelling). never had a waiter who knew the menu like that front to back. very descriptive and listed all the ingredients without stuttering. haven't had a waiter before that made the food sound so good. complimentary bread with sauce (not sure what's in it but it's really that sauce). decided to go with the pesto and it was 10/10. owner came over to greet us and was very friendly and engaged in convo with us. asked if we were here for something special and they brought out a surprise carrot cake which was delicious. ambiance is great for a date night or event. we will be back and this was truly a fine dining experience in a discreet location. a true gem read more

Spaggi's - Pesto Pasta - Italian Near Me - Upland, California

One of the best dinning experiences I've had. I've tried both locations in Beverly Hills and Las Vegas. You will not be disappointed.

I just left from my wonderful dinner at Spaggi's and I wish that I had taken some pictures. My food was savory and divine....as usual. My husband and I ordered two appetizers, the sashimi tuna ahi and cheese tomato tart. I died and went to heaven it was so good. I absolutely loved the tart. I love flakey food so this made my day. The warm cheesy cream sauce melted my heart and my belly. It was sooooo tasty. I ordered my usual...I'm a creature of habit. There Chilean sea bass is juicy, tender and falls apart when you put your fork into it. I love it! Yum. My husband got the leg of lamb. It was excellent and flavorful. I got my usual bottle of Cabernet, Domaine from Napa Vally and it pairs well well with the sea bass and leg of lamb. Yeah, they do have reduced hours but I look forward to my dinner here every time read more

We had not been here for many years and decided to stop in unplanned and it was the best decision we could have made! From the moment we entered we were greeted warmly and seated promptly and it only got better from there. The food, service, ambiance and wine selections were outstanding, with a special nod to Chris for entertaining my husband's sense of humor. Truly everything we ordered was above expectations! We can't wait to come back and bring our family and friends for another amazing meal! read more

It's been a while since I've been to Spaggi's but I had gone several times. The food was amazing as was the service and ambiance. Chef came out and spoke to us each time we came. Very nice man a a master in his food! I would highly recommend Spaggi's to anyone that loves great food! read more

I was pleasantly surprised with the local restaurant. I would have to say the location is not the greatest - nothing wrong with the area, just that it's in a strip mall. You dont expect a nice restaurant to be located in one. It was nice inside, the servers were wonderful and the hostess helped us to a nearby table since we were with someone not very ambulatory. Made us feel very welcomed. The food was wonderful and flavorful and I felt the prices reflected the quality. We will be back. read more

One of the best. It sounds kind of weird, but you can feel and taste the love and passion the chef has for his art. I see rants about poor service, but honestly I've only ever experienced top notch service. Sure they may get busy, but that gives me more time to socialize or have a romantic moment, all the while building my appetite and sating it with chefs perfect creations. I normally don't eat spaghetti at restaurants as they are typically disappointing. At Spaggis, it's another story altogether. After my 5th time or so dining here, I finally tried the spaghetti and it's quickly become my go to dish, especially when I bring the kiddos. Salads have always been on point. Always fresh and crispy. Tastes like they picked the veggies fresh from the garden that day every time. Chilean sea bass - honestly don't care too much about fish. But I ventured on my birthday and was pleasantly surprised. Literally cleaned my plate clean. Beef Wellington - never tried until here. After researching online a bit it's not an easy dish. They know what they're doing here. Lasagna - don't even get me started. It's got that perfect amount of crunch and softness. Perfect proportions of noodle to meats to sauce and cheese. Among these, I've ventured into various dishes that I normally wouldn't have and found great little surprises around every corner. Highly recommended! read more

This place is fantastic! I came here for a tasting due to my upcoming wedding. Unfortunately they dont offer a tasting menu so we had to get full courses. We ended up getting the lobster ravioli, chicken with spinach and prosciutto and the salmon dish. They were all fantastic! The ravioli being my husbands and I's favorite then the salmon and lastly the chicken. But I have never experienced an establishment that was so on point in execution! We will be back guys! read more

We had not been to Spaggi's in a long time and wanted to stop in and have a nice meal with friends. Due to the current situation, Spaggi's is not open for lunch and only open for dinner Thursday - Sundays. We placed our reservations for a Saturday evening and once again enjoyed a terrific meal with great service and a wonderful atmosphere. We started with an appetizer of Calamari Fritti which as done very well and a bottle of wine from Kunde Estate. I ordered one of their specials the breaded Swai on a bed of lobster filled ravioli with a Champagne lemon sauce. Swai is a bit of an odd fish and does not always come out right, but Spaggi's nailed it. It was absolutely delicious! My wife ordered the Pollo Con Marsala which she said was delicious as well. Our friends also really enjoyed the Cioppino; Crab meat, scallops, shrimp, calamari , mussels and a selection of fresh fish in light tangy saffron tomato broth with white wine and the Penne Dalle Vigne De Fillippi as well. For desert, each couple ordered a Chocolate Spaggi's Torte as a very rich and delicious way to end the evening. We highly recommend Spaggi's for the fabulous food and service that they provide. read more

Spaggi's in Upland is a family owned restaurant and is one of the best little places in the city. The food is impeccable and the service is second to none. They pride themselves on being family oriented and don't overcharge their customers even in this hyper inflated time. I recommend Spaggi's to anyone in the Upland area if they are looking for an intimate place to dine with a loved one or family. read more

We have been here four times, three during or immediately after Covid. Our first visit was so amazing. Great food and service-one of my favorite wines too. Tonight we felt disappointed with the whole experience. The wedge salad wasn't very good. It was overdressed and on top of the dressing they poured a lot of balsamic-too much. I ordered the chicken with asparagus and artichokes but I dont like artichokes so asked them to leave them off. Also, I told the waiter that I couldn't have dairy and when the meal came, it had artichokes and mashed potatoes. He took the dish back, removed the artichokes and mashed potatoes but didn't substitute anything in the place. Very few small pieces of asparagus and the sauce was very salty, kind of like a bouillon flavor. The frutti de mare didn't have enough spices, tasted on the sweet side and wasn't overwhelming -for the price we expected more. We felt so sad because it wasn't what it used to be. We enjoyed our wine, although they no longer carry the wine I love and the service was fine. Just were hoping for more read more

We spent our 37th anniversary here. First time we have ever been. Our waiter Zach gave us the best service. Everything we had from the Beet salad and the wedding soup had great flavors. The beef Wellington I had was delicious. My husband had the surf & turf which he said was very good. We ended our meal with Pineapple upside cake. That was so delicious. Zach brought us a Raspberry tart for our anniversary. We would definitely come back again. Good job! read more

Chef Henry is an incredible human being. Not just in his ability to prepare a culinary experience like non other in the Inland Empire, but also his heart to serve and give back with his success to his community by participating in various charitable organizations we have been blessed to take part in. We arrived at Spaggi's at the time of our reservation and were quickly ushered to a quiet table that we had requested. I took the liberty of ordering our meals ahead of time so that the evening would flow smoothly. Every plate was better than the last, expertly presented and delicately seasoned. The last plate was quite a surprise to my date, it was an engagement ring and she said yes! I guess the ultimate 5-star review endorsement you could ever write for a location is one that has you retelling it forever as a part of your life story. Thank you Chef Henry and Spaggi's for making our day extra special, we love you. read more

First time here today and it was great. Food was good and the workers were very attentive and nice. The lobster ravioli was a win!

This is one of our absolute favorite restaurants in the area. The food is delicious and quite reasonably priced relative to the excellent quality. There are a diversity of offerings on the menu and always a wide range of daily specialities to choose from. I spend a fair amount of time adventuring to restaurants throughout LA, and I think this is the rare case of a fantastic restaurant here in the 909. The atmosphere is pleasant and the servers, chefs, and managers are a delight to talk with. Spaggi's a real treat. read more

What can you say about a true hidden gem...The food, the service, the ambiance... EXCELLENT!! BUT... Like all hidden gems, if you drive too fast, you may miss it...Spaggi's is the restaurant that will make you turn around... It is located near a gas station, in a strip mall. Although, as soon as you enter, you feel transported to a posh, polished high-end restaurant. Spaggi's sets a relaxed, refined ambiance that helps setting the tone for you to celebrate your meal. BRAVO The staff are very friendly and k ow the menu very well to include meal ingredients... very important for people with unique dietary restrictions. The food,... i once had a friend say that the Inland Empire was a culinary desert... if this is true (which it's not), Spaggi's would be an oasis...the food can easily compete with any restaurant in the Southern California area. Great food... at a descent price. Overall, Spaggi's is an amazing restaurant. The Owner, the Chef, and the Staff should all pay themselves on the back for creating something so wonderful, in this so-called culinary desert!! read more

Food is delicious, service is good, never realized this restaurant was where it is kinda of hidden

We dined in 2x & had a great experience with food & service (once for my bday & Valentine's Day). Then we used Postmates to deliver on a cold rainy day & food was good overall but some things I wouldn't order again. YES - calamari fritti, linguine pesto, & cioppino Skip - eggplant soup, Genovese & chocolate soufflé read more

I hate the term "hidden gem". I react to that in the same way as one scraping their fingernails on a blackboard. So this will have to be my "obscure, inconspicuous little rarity". This dark, candle lit restaurant is a small, tasteful, slow dining experience. A real pleasure. It hardly jumps out at you if you were to drive by, could probably do far better in another location, so this is why I must Yelp it. First impressions are always good when there is a basket of homemade, hot savory bread immediately placed on your table. Served with an pinkish olive spread, it was tangy but we preferred real butter. So, ask and ye shall receive! This is one of those places where you order a la carte. The meat entrees include a starch (ours was a delicious but nontraditional presentation of au gratin potato) and vegetables. If you wish a salad, soup, etc, that will be extra. A lovely menu already, there were an abundance of specials of the day, in nearly every category. If I had one complaint, the server recited them from memory. While quite impressed with his memory, I wish they had been written down, as by the time he got to the end, I remembered little. Hint hint hint to the management. We chose to share a salad, Insalata Della Ana, that was a combination of baby greens, raspberries, mango, feta, candied nuts, and a raspberry-ranch dressing. We would have been ecstatic except the chef forgot to put the dressing on the salad (which he had split onto two plates). Ooops. Mr. B was done with his already, but I was still playing with my food, wondering why the dressing seemed so light. Once alerted, our waiter fixed that, for me, but it was too late for Mr. B. The dressing, by the way, was perfection. If the menu says "lamb", then that is Mr. B's order. So predictable. If that describes you too, prepare yourself for Costatella Di Agnello, four beautifully large, perfectly cooked (to a medium rare), prime rib chops with a nicely executed red wine sauce. The rosemary and garlic seasoning were in there, but so richly balanced. An extremely good choice. I went with Petto Di Pollo Al Doro, a chicken breast in a white wine sauce. It was accessorized with one plump shrimp, avocado, and mushrooms galore. The flavors were downright excellent, but the breast was slightly overcooked. My fault for not notifying the waiter, as I know they would have re-made it. Naturally, dessert was on my agenda. Chocolate, bien sur! But, apparently a little bird, or maybe a not so little Filipino, clued them in "we" were celebrating a birthday. Out came a complimentary creme brulee with one lit candle. Gratefully they did not try to match the candles to my number of years. And no obnoxious song, toilet seat cover hat, or helium balloons tied to my ears (yeah, that happened one year, not here). But back to dessert, the creme brulee was probably one of the best I have ever tasted, so perfectly creamy, with speckles of vanilla bean and a light lemony flavor. And a beautiful burnt sugar crust. Perfect, for a non-chocolate dessert, if you know what I mean. So after I licked the dish, I ordered the chocolate torte with raspberry sauce to-go. Ha! Coffee, a must with dessert, was strong. And that is probably why I am staying up late tonight completing this review. Now I really like feisty coffee, but this one took the whole pitcher of cream and two packets of sugar to lighten it up. Just warning you. To the staff at Spaggi's, they do a great job. While Ronal was our excellent server, he was supported by several others. I applaud their smooth, almost invisible service. Someone would even come by and refold his napkin when Mr. B made a pit stop. C'est manifique! A romantic evening, lovely service, beautiful food. I don't know why we don't come here more often. read more

Such a disappointment. We really like Spaggi's, but they no longer serve Beef Wellington. That dish is one of my favorites as they fixed it perfectly. Sounds probably terrible to say, but not sure if we will be back.

Went to Spaggi's for a Valentine's Day dinner with my wife and had an incredible experience! The Chef was very gracious and created a great ambiance and vibe at Spaggi's.

Definitely try the upside down pineapple cake as well Can't wait to come back and try more dishes - our new favorite in the Inland Empire! read more

Delicious food. Great place for dinner on special occasions. Attentive service. Peaceful ambiance.

Thank you Spaggi's for the delicious NYE dinner! Someone had said that inside the restaurant was reserved for reservations only and that walk ins would be outside in the patio, but when we came in and said we don't have a reservation, we were seated inside at a table within 10 minutes. Thank you guys for keeping us out of the cold I ordered the penne dalle vigne difilippe and my mom ordered the lasagna. The penne was delicious and creamy, but the sauce seemed a little runny in my opinion. I was going to ask for more Parmesan cheese so I can thicken the sauce, but I finished my plate before anybody came to check up on us. I also got a tasty mango martini which was so smooth and delicious as well. Service was excellent and the waitresses and waiters were very attentive to our table as well as all the others. read more
