Love this place so much! My kids absolutely love it too! Can always count on the food being delicious

I use to visit the original location in Rancho Cucamonga. This location is smaller, and when I went on a Saturday afternoon, it was pretty empty. I don't think their AC was working, so it was kind of warm. After we sat ourselves down, our server promptly welcomed me and my party. After ordering, our food arrived within less than 10 min. The portion sizes are huge. They do charge a fee for splitting the food, so just be aware of that. I jokingly told my party that I need a bib. The server overheard me and offered me one. I didn't know they had bibs! I'm glad I wore one, because I am a messy eater and got sauce on me. The highlight was the lasagna and the garlic cheese bread. The spaghetti was good too, but the lasagna just hit the spot. We all went home with plenty of leftovers for tomorrow. If you're in the mood for some basic, yet delicious Italian food, definitely check this place out. The manager was really happy to have us there. read more

This ain't it. A friend got catering from them a couple months back--lasagna, bread and salad. The lasagna was different, but I really enjoyed it. Inside the restaurant was a whole different matter. The inside feels like a diner from yesteryear, and not in a good way. The food wasn't good, but boy did it come out fast! The server was nice. But it's not enough to make me go back. I don't know what the difference was between catering and in-person, but I'll never know. And listen--at the end of the day, the name is accurate. It's fast, for sure. And it's not like the name is Vince's Spaghetti Deliciousness. Because then? Wouldn't be accurate at all. read more

I really wanted to love this place. I love the Vinces in Ontario & Rancho Cucamonga. However, the service at this location is awful. I gave it 4 chances and every time they forgot an item, got my order wrong or had attitude. Unfortunately won't be back this time. I'd recommend revamping the staff here. Menu is quite simple to mess up and order every time. The last time, I used the drive thru. I asked for a soda, they confirmed. Then they forgot my soda so I drove back and reminded them. At first the response was "oh yes I remember, the Pepsi"... then they said actually that'll be $4 I don't think I charged you. How do you remember my drink order and then try to charge again? Bar is quite low here for service. Food is pretty similar to the OGs. read more

We love Vince's authentic Italian. I was so unhappy with Olive Garden and even the spots downtown old town. The meatballs & sausage are super amazing and fresh. Noodles are adente. Love the salad, simple, but super great ranch dressing and the cheesy garlic bread is superb. This is our second visit in. Really enjoyed everything. We also had strawberry cheesecake to share and it was fresh with an amazing graham crust. Christina was our server and she was wonderful, blessing to have met her. The vibe was fantastic. Thanks for the great food. Large portions are perfect to share. Also the minestrone soup was super delish. read more

To anyone wanting a great Italian meal I would make sure to visit and dine at Vince's in Temecula, Ca. It was my first time to Vince's Spaghetti Express. I enjoyed the spaghetti and meat sauce, (1/2order), sausage and garlic cheese bread. It was a plentiful serving and very authentic and delicious tasting dish. The ambiance is inviting and relaxing. Displayed are some photos and history of Vince's Spaghetti in their beginning. I had a great service provided by Mia who attended me with her wonderful service. Way to go Vince's, I will be back. read more

Spaghetti is so El Dente here. Since Torrance had their Vince's Spaghetti closed down this was such a treat. We all had a half order of spaghetti with meat sauce. Half Garlic and half cheese bread. Service is great. We got there early. Restaurant is clean and they were kind enough To offer a Birthday Treat for our cousin. I recommend this place read more

After a fun filled day at a few wineries in Temecula, I needed some sustenance to keep me going. Across the street from our pet friendly hotel there was a bright shining star pointing me to such a place. Ok, well no star but the sign was bright . Vince's Express Spaghetti, hit the spot and kept me going the rest of the day. I ordered the #1 lunch special spaghetti with meat sauce, a salad with wine vinegar dressing and garlic bread. Very reasonably priced and even a drive thru! Frank was helpful with helping me decide what was the best deal and the whole meal was only $13! Thanks Vince's Express Spaghetti in Temecula California for a great lunch! read more

Drive thru's are for FAST food... I shouldn't have to wait dine in lengths in the drive thru... especially if the dining room is closed

The food is great, been coming here for years. Service is fast and the staff is great.

Once again, doing a review after a year, and the meatball is super hot & so filling! The antipasto salad, 1/3 order with red wine vinaigrette & oil w/blue cheese, to die for! Try it out, you'll be surprised!! If your in the mood for Italian & need a quick stop, they have a drive thru & are super convenient, not too far off the rancho Cal freeway exit in Temecula!! Been coming here for over 5 years & it's been delicious each & every time! read more

Always fabulous at Vinces! Food, vibe, and service from Mia always outstanding! 30 years of this Wednesday addiction, never had a bad experience! read more

Their spaghetti sauce is amazing! I had it last night for the first time. The sausage was good too. My mother in law goes her all the time and now I know why. Can't wait to try their lasagna. read more

I've never seen a spot that had a drive thru spaghetti. Just for that alone, it gets a star. But what I liked most is that you get a ton of food for the price. It's not the best spaghetti, but it certainly wasn't bad. I would say that it's on the better side of restaurants where I had spaghetti, but I would usually pay way more money for the amount of food I would get. Anyway, if you're nearby, this is certainly a great spot to pick up food for your family for a very affordable price. And you don't even have to get out of your car and can just use their drive thru. read more

Delicious home made Italian food! The service was amazing and the ambiance was chill and friendly. Will definitely be visiting again when we return to visit friends. read more

Vince's Spaghetti Express - Italian Near Me - Temecula, California

I've been coming to Vince's Spaghetti since I was 17 years old, dating the man who is now my husband. Thirty-nine years later, we're still making memories here. We used to live in the South Bay and loved going to the Torrance location until it unfortunately closed. Then we found the Upland location. One day while visiting Pechanga Casino Resort, someone asked us, "You don't know there's a Vince's around the corner?" We couldn't believe it! This location has truly become our place. The owner is one of the sweetest ladies you'll ever meet. I still remember the first time we came here -- it was her daughter's very first day ever serving. Now she's all grown up and still working there, which makes it feel even more special. We celebrated Valentine's Day 2026 here last night, and it was amazing as always. The food is consistently delicious, and the portions are unreal -- huge! Next time, I'm definitely sharing. The restaurant is always clean and well kept, and the waitresses are so kind and welcoming. Thank you, Vince's, for another beautiful and memorable evening. After 39 years, this place will forever be part of our love story. "BUON APPETITO" read more

I'm going to Vincent Ontario since the 80s. This food does not taste anything like Ontario Vincent. I will never go back here again it's a rip off. I have to give a star read more

Service sucks now Sat at the booth for 1/2 hour before someone even greeted me then said that they only serve people on one side of the restaurant I walked out If you are going to close off part of the restaurant because you don't have enough staff then you should have someone greeting people as they walk in and seat them according read more

A colleague recommended this spot that has been here for 20 years but I never stopped by, since 99% of Italian spots have sausage or pork in their meat sauce, so I've always avoided these places. Apparently, Vince's uses pure beef in their meat sauce (no pork) and their meatballs are also all beef. I tried the spaghetti lunch special and it was delicious!! It was smothered w melted provolone cheese atop the meat sauce. The spaghetti special comes w soup or salad and garlic cheese bread. I opted for the beef and barley soup which was served hot and warmed my soul. The garlic cheese bread was also smothered w melted provolone cheese... so, so good!! What I really like was that the meat sauce on the spaghetti was made w beef only and it was very tasty!! The tomato based sauce that the meatball was covered in had its own unique flavor that tasted very herby and is vegetarian (the tomato based sauce, not the meatball). Service was great, Gianna took very good care of me, coming by to check if I needed anything and asked how I liked the food. BTW, there is also a drive thru at this location. Overall, I love the food a lot, it was really delish and I appreciate that their meat sauce does not contain pork. Absolutely coming back to try other items!! My new (and probably one and only) Italian spot!! read more

So wonderful as usual! As a long time customer of 35+ years to mostly the OG locations in Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga, the food and service was on point. Thank you! read more

We came here for the first time on Saturday night. The menu is very simple, but that's okay because we did enjoy the food. My hubby got a half order of spaghetti with marinara. It came with garlic/cheese bread. The portion size was large even though it was half size. He really liked the marinara, but prefers angel hair pasta. I got the soup and salad, as well as a couple of meatballs. The meatballs were great and they gave me enough sauce, which is a big deal to me. I often have to ask for extra sauce. It's not far from my office, they have a drive-thru, and I think they have lunch specials, so I see that in my future! read more

so unprofessional at this location. the food came out quick. All the employees were just sitting where the customers sit and laughing loud and it was unjoyable. when we went to the front to pay it took awhile for her to take our payment,the lady with blonde/ brown hair she was too busy talking. she didn't even ask us if we wanted boxes to go. not much customers either. were the only ones in there. read more

Heard about Vinces Spaghetti Express from my sister who stayed at the hotel across the street and wondered hmmm could this Vince's be associated with the Vince's that was in Torrance back in the day? So one weekend after visiting a local casino, we decided to drop by and try it out. Got there early and waited for the drive thru to open, looked at the menu and it looked similar to what we remembered. Low n behold I ask the gentleman at the drive thru window and YES he confirmed Vince's spaghetti express was the son of the original location. We longed for their delicious spaghetti sauce and their garlic bread and my father in law even buys it online for our family outings. Vince's spaghetti express is a MUST try if you haven't had it before. read more

My server was really nice. Server #13. She was sweet and friendly. Very refreshing. Thank you. I ate a 1/2 antipasto salad and a sausage link. Both were delicious. The 1/2 salad was big. It was filling. Sausage was good too. Paid $15. Good deal. Restaurant was clean and comfortable. I will definitely come back here. read more

Vince's Spaghetti Express - Dry spaghetti with "meat sauce" - Italian Near Me - Temecula, California

Extremely small sausages. No vinegar in the vinegar and oil salad dressing and no cheese for the salad. Good memories of the original place in Ontario. This one didn't do it for me. read more

When we were kids my parents always took us to the original location on holt ave. Now since the Temecula location is open I made my first trip there with my son and the food hasn't changed a bit, it's fantastic! I love the rich meat sauce and garlic cheese bread. Great place and great food read more

Sad to have to do this but between a lousy and surprisingly small sausage sandwich and spaghetti that u surprisingly was overcooked but not even warm I have to give the food two stars. The lasagna deserves 3 stars but the service or lack thereof are getting the dreaded one star. My poor buddy Chuck dares to try their Chianti but the wine was undrinkable and possibly soured/spoiled. I pointed this out to the waitress and asked if she could replace the wine with something else. She said the cab is better and would get a glass of that. She brought the glass and I asked her to remove the full glass of bad Chianti. Much to our dismay when the bill came both glasses of wine were on the bill. It was the adding of insult to injury. Plenty of leftovers to take and throw away which we did. In general not impressed with any of the food options outside of uncle Gino's pizza. Will It be back. read more

Ordered the dinner for two... not really a lot of pasta which was disappointing, but the bread, salad, and soup were portioned fine. As for the taste? Lord have mercy, I could have sworn the meat sauce was Chef Boyardi. Soup tasted like it was kroger brand vegetable soup out of a can. Bread was hard and tasted freezer burned. Salad was okay (surprising at this point). First time trying this place and man it was not good. Nothing authentic about Vince's, not much better than fazoli's, and that place is inedible. Better off making your own pasta at home cost you a fraction of the price and 10x the flavor. I guess thats what you get for express. read more

As a New Yorker, I can say that the food here was delicious. Much better than the other options in the area that use canned sauce.

Omg what a treat! I never heard of this place before until my family suggested it & WOW! Great service, large portions & great prices! I had more than enough for dinner & lunch (the next day). read more

Vince's Spaghetti Express - Reheated spaghetti with meat sauce & garlic bread - Italian Near Me - Temecula, California

Pro tip: Check your order before leaving the drive through! OR, just don't use the drive through. There's been a few times that I have utilized the drive through and half the time something is missing. Usually it's something small but this time I was missing the meatballs I ordered! Those babies are $4 each! Definitely worth it... if you actually get them. I would've driven back if it weren't for it being a 45 minute round trip. I have a habit of paying a tip at the point of sale, before getting my food. I think from now on, I'll inspect my order before leaving a tip. I don't want to be totally negative in this review because we do love Vince's! So, I need to add that it's definitely worth the drive to eat Vince's spaghetti! It's actually a 40+ year family tradition to eat at Vince's for birthdays and other special occasions. It was my mom's favorite restaurant so we still eat there in her memory for her birthday. Just don't use the Temecula drive through and you'll never be disappointed. read more

Love their food! Everything is delicious! Especially love the meal with spaghetti, soup, salad and bread. read more

Vince's Spaghetti Express - Italian Near Me - Temecula, California

Vince's express is my favorite Italian restaurant. Normally I get the lasagna dish which is AMAZINGLY good, but this time I thought I worked try the meatball sandwich which was quite good, but I think I like the lasagna better. There are quite friendly and welcoming here. The service is great and the food was delivered amazingly fast ( hence the "express") in what seemed less than 5 minutes. The food is always fresh. The ambiance is chill and casual, not overly loud so it has an intimate vibe (though it was on a weekend for lunch so it was not full). They are about on par for pricing for what you would pay ( maybe a little less) at the "big box" Italian restaurants, but Vince's is way better. A Unique feature is that they have a drive through window you can order from. For great fresh friendly Italian food with great service, you have to give Vince's a try. read more

So good! It's located across from the hotel we were staying at and I love spaghetti so it was a clear choice to go. Cute little place, comfortable with old Italian vibes. The service was excellent! We had a blonde young lady as our server and she was wonderful! I ordered a side salad and half order of spaghetti and meat sauce. It was so good and flavorful. Reminded me of pasta back in NY. The portions are huge! Will def return when we pass through Temecula again. read more
