    Chicken Tortellini
    Tiffany T.

    Ordered the chicken tortellini, delicious! Chicken is white meat and they give plenty of sauce. Restaurant has a big indoor and outdoor section with plenty of seating. Loved the warm bread, table service. Can't wait to go again.

    cajun seafood pasta
    Paul R.

    Very unique concept a higher end counter service Italian restaurant. Many good pasta choices soI settled on the seafood cajun pasta. It had an amazing sauce and came with a sizable helping of various seafood. the pasta was perfect and it had mussels shrimp and a few scallops. I believe there was a smaller spiny lobster on there but I broke the tail off and the meat was mushy so I didn't eat it. Otherwise very enjoyable place and very reasonable prices. pasta was ready fairly quickly and came with complimentary bread service.

    gnocchi al carne
    Charlize V.

    Loved this spot for a late lunch! Very convenient you can order at the counter and sit anywhere, they have a drive thru as well. Starting with the free bread which was very soft and comes with balsamic/olive oil to dip. The tomato bisque is nice and a bit chunky. We ordered the chicken marsala and gnocchi al carne for our entrees. Both were super flavorful and satisfying portions. I do wish the sauce on the gnocchi was a bit thicker. The staff was nice, they come check on you even for a casual environment and have no issue giving you togo boxes instantly.

    Sangrias to celebrate 3

    Brought in my two friends to celebrate a recent engagement, I knew it was the best place to share a meal together and talk about the proposal she just had over the weekend . The food was delicious and the staff was very sweet and welcoming . As soon as we entered we were greeted by one of the owners and it was a family feel when he introduced himself . I'll always come back with different friends and share this place

    First timer! Easy to find with lots of parking. Very clean (even restrooms). Cozy set up with lots of seating both indoor and outdoor. They play great background music. Was very surprised to see they have a drive thru! Order food at the counter then they bring it out to you with complimentary bread. The staff is very helpful and kind. Great portions and tasted homemade. We really enjoyed our experience here!

    Excellent service, delicious food, and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend this restaurant!

    DINE-IN: My visit reflects a dine-in experience. I visited around 6 pm on a Friday, and we definitely beat the rush because soon after, there were a ton of folks behind us. This place seems like the spot to visit with a group because you order, pay, and find your seat. This takes out the whole, someone pay and we Venmo that one person ordeal. I ordered mozzarella sticks for the table and a pepperoni pizza. My friend had the Cajun chicken pasta. Pizza was good and it's a personal size, but I definitely had leftover. The mozzarella sticks were okay and my friend thought her pasta was just okay. The bread they give you when you sit down comes with olive oil and vinegar, and it was pretty good. I think it's moderately priced but the people seem to love it because I'm telling you that place was PACKED! I'll have to try the drive thru on a lazy day because this is the first I'm hearing of a drive through Italian place. WILD but I love it!

    Chicken Piccata
    Vu N.

    Tutto fresco. Came for lunch today. And I was surprised how much I enjoyed this place. 18-19 bucks for a quality Italian meal with a decent size Caesar salad. They also got lunch special. 14 bucks for pasta and salad. Chicken parmigiana. Not dry at all. Big portions. It was done very well actually. Only thing I wish. Pasta was more under cooked. I like it harder. Chicken picatta. Breast was done well. Sauce had great flavor. Overall great dish also Free bread is bomb. So soft. Pillowy. Man I want some more now. Overall excellent spot for quick Italian that's not too pricey. The roasted chicken is also very good here. Definitely be back

    Bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar
    Kathy W.

    If you're looking for fast, delicious, and plentiful Italian food, look behind the Chevron station. Because that is where you'll find Tutto Fresco. It's a fast casual restaurant -- you wait in line (there's almost always a line), order at the counter, and they'll bring you your food. There's a lot to choose from including dozens of pasta dishes, appetizers, salads, pizzas, and a pretty tasty meat-filled calzone. If you're eating in the restaurant, they'll bring you a basket of soft, delicious rolls to dip in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Most of the pasta dishes and entrees come with a side salad to start, so you won't be waiting too long before you're enjoying your meal. What are my favorites? the Camera Pasta, the meaty calzone, the calamari, and the spaghetti and meatballs (with two HUGE meatballs). If you don't have leftovers at the end, you are very hungry.

    Kudos to Jerry and the catering team at Tutto Fresco for delivering an exceptional experience! They catered an event for our Italian clients yesterday, and everything was outstanding. The client's response said it all: "First class!" From the incredible quality of the food to the attention to detail in the presentation, every element exceeded expectations. The elegant chafing dishes and décor added a beautiful, polished touch that truly elevated the event. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to impress their guests--Tutto Fresco delivers on every level.

    We celebrated here for my cousin's birthday and service was great but food was okay. Very spacious inside and lots of food options! You order at the register and they bring the food out to you. What we ordered: -Gnocchi Al Carne: This was okay. The little meat there was was tender and sauce wasn't very flavorful, it just felt very oily. Gnocchi also felt very rubbery, like the ones you get from the grocery. 3/5 -Fontaine: Very oily as well. A little bit more flavorful than the gnocchi. Didn't taste the truffle though. 3/5 -Calamari: Breading was bland, not the best. 2/5 I had bookmarked this place because I've been wanting to try it but unfortunately it was a let down. It felt very fastfood like, not my cup of tea with Italian food. Service was nice though!

    Decided to try the drive through window and was pleasantly surprised by how quick, yummy, and easy it all was! Everyone going in the restraunt was dressed fairly nicely so it was a nice feature to be able to stay in my car to order. The spinach ravioli was so good and I was given a good amount of bread with oil and balsamic. I'll definitely have to try the service inside one day

    Lemon chicken piccata and tomato bisque soup
    Sally T.

    I had a solo dinner here recently because I was craving Tutto Fresco's lemon chicken piccata and tomato bisque soup. I tried this dish a few months ago with my best friend and he's heard me talk about it every day since, so I had to go back! Their lemon chicken piccata is divine. Thls dish truly puts the angel in angel hair, and I can't help but sing its praises. The chicken is seasoned perfectly, and every caper's placement seems intentional. 10/10 and underrated dish by far. Their tomato bisque was creamy, thicc in all the right places, and perfect for dipping house bread in. Now, onto the topic of their house bread specifically because it deserves its own special call-out. If Yelp had an option to search restaurants based on whether they offered free bread, Tutto Fresco would dominate that space. Their soft, yet crispy bread pairs incredibly with their olive oil and balsamic vinegar offering. A major perk of dining alone is lowkey not having to share your bread, LMAO.. I had so much leftover bread that I was able to bring some home to finish with my leftovers the next day. The staff were very polite and accommodating, making sure they visited my table frequently enough for me to feel comfortable, but not an excessive amount where it felt overwhelming. Their restaurant absolutely has a strong family ambiance and I felt like I was having dinner at an Italian relative's house (lol). They also have a drive-through window for takeout orders, which is an interesting offering for pasta. I've never used it, but can see it being convenient for quick lunch orders if I lived closer. All in all, this restaurant is perfect for a quick and delicious meal that isn't compromised in quality. Oh and there's plentiful parking in their private lot.

This is one of our go-to date spot that our friends introduced to us to. From my understanding this is Italian owned business with not only great quality food but also a wonderful assortment of rich olive oil, balsamic vinegar, jam, wine, packaged noodles you can buy straight from Italy. The service is always friendly but they can get very busy. Highly recommend a reservation. They've been so busy before they wouldn't even do take out orders. Ambiance is quaint. I love the beautiful Italian chandeliers they have. I've had a hard time with the chairs if I have a thick coat or a clutch hand back hard to put on the seat My husband orders the carbonara everytime which is our favorite item on the menu. Very authentic to us. I've tried many different pastas and just tried the lasagna last night which is not super heavy if your hesitant on feeling too full, was a great portion amount and wasn't super greasy either. Other items I've tried are the but my favorites are the fettuccine Alfredo (not on the menu), the short rib ravioli - super tasty!, and this mozerella crusted Pattie's in balsamic and creamy tomato sauce (seasonal or not on the menu sometime) that we love! I wanted to love the seafood risotto but I've had better. I used to order paccheri alla boscaiola which a popular item but I have to be in the mood for all the red onions which can be overpowering if there's a lot. We have tried some Of the apps which are always super fresh but we tend to order insalata calabrese which has a bit of everything Italian salad and great for sharing. The free bread is a plus too. Highly recommend coming for date night, family night, or even a small special occasion. Thanks for the great food and service!

Placed the order at 4:35 pm with an ETA of 15-20 minutes. The app said it should be ready before 5 pm. Keep in mind, I intentionally placed the order early so that my 2 year old would have food at her normal dinner time. When I entered the restaurant, there were a few customers who didn't know what's going on. Neither did I. There wasn't anyone at the cashier's area. I had to flag the lady down to ask about my order. This was around 4:50 ish, so I don't mind waiting 10 minutes for my pizza. However, at 5, they didn't even start making my pizza, let alone put it in the oven. It's not until 5:21 pm that the pizza finally made its way out of the oven. It was disappointingly slow. Good news, though, I was able to write this review while I waited for my pizza and I finally got out of there by 5:23 pm. Also, one more thing to note, it felt like they were definitely short staffed and the person who was taking the orders at the front was also the person who was making the pizza. However, I noticed that she didn't use any gloves when making the pizza after transitioning from taking orders nor did I see her wash her hands. Just for that reason alone I don't know if I'd be coming back or would I recommend this place.

    Pizzeria Irene is one of the City of Oranges hidden gems. Located on Olive street and just off of…read moreChapman. Cool casual vibe. Old school music playing softly in the background. And the Pizza is cooked , slightly burnt to perfection. brick oven. Place is small and they do offer reservations. Cool thing is if you try your luck and the wait too long. Just order your food to go. Take a 20 minute stroll around the plaza and head back. Food will be out shortly. Then enjoy a picnic in the circle near the fountain Started off with the Caesar Salad. Next we Ordered the Bianca Pizza "Love the fresh garlic " .... The crust is soft and burnt for that perfect Napolitano style pizza firewood heated oven. Add a side of sliced prosciutto ham. Will try the broccolini appetizer the next time we dine in.

    Solid, gourmet pizza that's just a bit overhyped…read more Gourmet is no hyperbole - everything here is as clean and fresh as can be. People raved about the Caesar salad - which was really good. But the big item here is the pizza and...it was really good. Just not maybe to the level others praised it to be. Good portions, flavorful, fresh, but something was a bit off. Not sure if the marinara was just okay, or what, but it tasted a bit more like paste than what I'm used to. Forgive my uncultured taste buds. Service rocked - we were taken care of wonderfully and the small space makes it feel pretty special. Incredibly charming and a perfect spot for a romantic night out or just a more chill space. While I'll definitely come back - it's not my first choice for food (or even pizza) in downtown Orange...but given everyone else's high praise you really should try it at least once.

    I ordered a full bowl of the Salsiccia pasta. Plenty of free parking behind l…read more The pasta was really well done. Perfectly cooked and coated in a rich, flavorful sauce with the sausage bringing a nice savory depth to the whole dish. It felt hearty without being too heavy, and every bite was consistent. The place has a clean, modern feel but still feels comfortable enough to sit and enjoy your meal. Staff was friendly and service was quick and smooth from start to finish. Simple order, but everything was done right. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm in the mood for a solid pasta.

    I came to Storico for an early Mother's day lunch. It was around 12:30 on Saturday…read more I called the day before to ask if I could get a reservation but the nice gentleman on the phone said they don't do reservations for that time but I should be good to get seated right away with 7 people. He assured me I shouldn't have any issues. I will assume he forgot it was Mother's day weekend lol. When we arrived the hostess told us all of the big tables were full and it would be a 30 minute wait. She also said the kitchen closes down at 1:45 so.... In other words my chances of dining in were slim to none? Or we would not be able to order any food once we are seated?? I really am not sure where she was going with that. My daughter stepped in and asked if there were tables available outside. She said there was but it was probably too small for us, we asked to go see and thought the table was actually perfect for us. So we asked to be seated there. We had plenty of elbow room and the table fit our food perfectly so I am not sure why she thought it was too small. Overall we did not feel like she was taking much initiative to be accomadating on a holiday weekend. The food was so authentic and amazing that I didn't even care. My pesto was so fresh and flavorful, the pasta was cooked perfectly. Everyone in my family ordered something different and everyone loved their dish! Service was friendly but not very attentive. They add a 20% gratuity for parties 6 and up. The restaurant inside and outside is super duper cute and charming. I would definitely come back again as the food was just so good, I would hope to have a better experience with service next time though. I am always very aware and forgiving when going out Mother's day weekend.
