As a group from work we went out for dinner. One of our favorite place for us to get together when we are in town. Great Food, atmosphere, and great service.
This is a thoroughly Italian restaurant that literally could be on Mulberry St in NYC. Service is very good snd the food was great. We had the special shrimp with pasta and a special order of rigatoni with olive oil, garlic and tomatoes. The latter was a very light meal but it was plentiful. The shrimp dish could of fed two not so hungrys or one really hungry. Atmosphere is NewYork old Italian. Nice bar up front and eating at the bar would be fine if the place was full. Overall this is a very good restaurant and we give it four clams on the coveted Five Quahog Rating Scale (five stars by the google rating system).
The lunch set can upgrade to French onion soup which was good. All the sauce on pasta tasted good, except the pasta was over cooked. I was disappointed as the menu specified all pasta is fresh house made. I was expecting al dente texture. Cream Brule tasted good, but would be better with more egg favor. Server was very patient to come back a few times b4 we were ready to order. We had an enjoyable lunch.
Nice Italian place with great salmon dish! Everything about this place is classy - service is top notch and the food is excellent. Bread was great, salad was great, salmon special of the day was awesome. Nice, quiet, and quaint location - try it out!

Been to a few Italian restaurants lately and this is the first one I feel is genuinely 5 stars. No complaints or problems with anything. Everything was great; the food, the service, the atmosphere.
I took my wife there for her birthday. It was a Monday, so it wasn't very busy, which was awesome. Parking can be a problem in Downtown Fullerton on the weekends, but the weekdays are much better.
The servers were great. They were constantly checking on us and refilling our water, even the servers who were waiting other tables. It was a team effort. It made us feel very comfortable and taken care of.
The food was outstanding. The presentation of the plating wasn't anything visually stunning, but the taste was delicious! I got the salmon, which is one of their specials and it was cooked so perfectly. My wife got the chicken piccata, which typically comes with potatoes instead of pasta, but she was able to substitute the potatoes for pasta instead so she was very happy because she really wanted pasta for her birthday.
For dessert, we got the tiramisu and creme brulee. Both were unbelievably amazing. The tiramisu maybe be in my top 5 tiramisu's of all time. It has a rich chocolatey flavor to it.
It's fairly pricey. Most of the entrees fall into the $20-$30 range, but it's not any different from typical Italian places, so I can't complain that it's too expensive.
All in all, we loved it and had a great time. This will definitely be a place we return to for special occasions.
A lovely restaurant in a quaint location. We ate inside and it was very comfortable and conversation was easy. I thought the outside tables would be wonderful for a larger party. The food was delicious and rich. We had a couple of chicken dishes, the New York strip and, a pasta dish or two. Desert was delicious. Several of us had creme brulee and a couple had the spumoni. Everything was excellent which sadly made the salad even worse! We were told it would be mixed salad greens. We asked if there was much iceberg in it and were told only a little. The salad was primarily iceberg. All the lettuces were old tasting and had the distinctive taste of bagged lettuce. I could not eat it. A remarkably yucky salad in an otherwise divine restaurant!
Very busy for an early Wednesday dinner. Best Chicken Piccata in a long time. Their House Salad with house dressing was fabulous!! Good service. There was a mix up concerning our final bill, but our server explained that he had corrected it and provided us with the correct bill.. We'll check our credit card statement when it is received. Otherwise, it was a delightful early dinner.
We went to celebrate a birthday and they were able to accommodate 11 of us which was awesome. That was just the beginning of it their pasta was amazing great food and awesome service.
I hadn't been here in more than 20 years and was excited to discover it's still going strong. My companions raved about the salad with house dressing, and their pasta dishes looked delicious. I had half a French dip sandwich and a cup of white clam chowder. Super. The service was friendly and prompt. For a wonderful Italian meal, be sure to go here.
Went in for lunch on a Friday. 1st time there. Glad we were early. Place filled up.
There are many good Italian restaurants, however "this one is exceptional". Hand made pastas, will delight. Soups and sauces that are NOT over salted to cover up inferior preparation and cooking. Well thought out wine list, and a full bar.
Atmosphere is nicely decorated and that makes it warm, inviting and family friendly.
Our first meeting was here tonight she lives in Aneheim I’m in Menifee and the 11/2 drive was worth it for two reasons HER and this amazing family owned resturant
Mushroom soup was delicious the chicken Marsala was superb cooked perfectly. It will be the place we will come back to for a romantic dining experience

We've lived in Fullerton for quite some time but we're astonished to have come across this restaurant! The Alfredo was delicious and my toddler brother was asking for more, can't wait to come back. Also the portions give you a lot of bang for your buck !
Amazing find. Old school feel and look. Open late which was nice for our after show dinner. Friendly staff, good service, and great food. Both the capellini pasta and eggplant parmesan were delicious.
My husband and I had our first date here in 2012. We go here for every anniversary. Its one our favorite restaurants. We always get the artichoke hearts. The food is always delicious and tbe atmosphere is great.
We had dinner to celebrate a birthday! We enjoyed it . The food was delicious and we all share the desserts.
