I come here often with my family, the food is always amazing. If you're looking for authentic Italian food, look not further. It's small, but comfortable. The wait for the food is worth it. It's made fresh by hand and always delicious.

Authentic Italian food, the pasta was perfectly cooked and our server recommended a very good choice of wine. I wish the atmosphere is a little bit more engaging but it is very quite. Overall it’s a good experience and will come back.

They are an authentic Italian family that runs the restaurant. The food is decent and the staff was very kind. The prices are very reasonable for an Italian restaurant.

If you want to feel like you are in Italy with the fresh pasta and breads you are in the right place. Attended the wine tasting and I was a little hesitant as I don't eat seafood but I was amazed at the flavor of the seafood stuffed portobello. The lobster ravioli was rich and the pasta so fresh and cooked to a perfect texture. The wines were delicious and they kept the glasses filled. The main course was lamb which I have never had before but the Brandi sauce was rich and buttery with a heavy cream base and a hint of garlic. I didn't get a photo of the bread but it is made to order for the table a freshness you don't expect. Truly a gem in Litchfield Park. Ps for those that say it takes long...fresh food does take a awhile and the amount of care in every dish is worth waiting.

La Bona Pasta is intimate and authentic. We went at 4PM on a Sunday and had the place to ourselves. Food was fresh and delicious. We plan to visit often!

This little place in a mall delivers a great punch. The chef/owner is very personable, but more importantly cooks delicious dishes. Visiting from NY I am used to find great places, but this one exceeded my expectations. Everything is fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend.

Food was fantastic. Service was well above board. Homemade rolls and bread (devoured before i could get pictures) cant be beat. Chicken Parmigiano was delicious. The house rose sauce and penne was a very well executed pairing with the deliciously seasoned, breaded, and cooked chicken, house marinara and mozzarella. Both alfredo dished were prepared wonderfully. Broccoli was slightly undercooked but not enough to truly matter. Pesto pasta was again very well exucuted and tasted of fresh basil. Desserts were rich and flavorful. Tiramisu was on point and very well made nd presented. Amazingly prepared food. Definitely coming back.

Granted that we showed up right as it opened, the small cozy restaurant is set for romantic dining with its dim lighting and small tables. The service was quick and waiter was attentive the entire time we were there. The starter salads were a little underwhelming but the pasta dishes made up it. Its a hidden gem for those who seek a nice italian restaurant away from all the hubbub of trying to find a place to eat during the dinner rush.

This place is quite unassuming at first, easily missed from the street. But missing this place is a huge mistake! Me and the wife tried this place today and were blown away! The food was so amazing, and the atmosphere was very quiet and romantic. They offer a huge selection of booze, and while the menu isn't as big as the chain restaurants that cook "italian" what this place does offer is a far superior quality of food. Everything from the bread to the pasta is on a completely different level. This place is a definite must try for anyone looking for authentic Italian food.

Great little independent owned Italian restaurant. We went here after our daughter graduated so there were 8 of us and we thoughrly enjoyed it. Great food, service and atmosphere was great. I'd definitely recommend them if you're looking for a great date night. I'd go here again before Olive Garden.

A true hidden gem in the West Valley. Parallels Italian cooking at my Nonna’s - homemade, handmade bread. Wonderful wine tastings. You can’t go wrong with anything on their menu. If you’re looking for an in-and-out dining experience, look elsewhere. This place allows you to savor the flavors and your company. A must-go-to for your next date night.

This is an old style Italian, old world restaurant, that serves the classic Italian style food. You will not be disappointed if this is what you are looking for. Be prepared to take your time and socialize as this is the standard, dinner will take 2 to 3 hours if you order all courses. The Parmesan Eggplant was very good but the Clam pasta was a bit light on clams. The bread was outstanding, l like that they served two different kinds. The Fosters creamla was done very well. Over all a very relaxing meal with good family-friends time.

Don't let the unassuming look of this tiny strip mall restaurant fool you! The food is amazing! Veal Piccatta and Veal Parmesan both tender, delicious and good portions. The pasta was el dente with a delicious Palmina sauce (creamy tomato) rather than standard tomato sauce. The vegetables were crisp but tender and tasty. I worked at a top notch Italian restaurant in Michigan, and this was comparable. Jesus, our waiter, was lacking in the personality department, but adequate. The owner, Humberto, is also the chef, along with his wife in the kitchen. The only complaint is the drink menu has not been updated and says Grey Goose is $5, it was $11(a going rate). But wine prices were moderate. All in all, a wonderful meal! We will return!

My first time visiting the resturant was overall a good experience. There were some pros and cons. The homemade rolls were amazing! The salad was light and good, but I would suggest not getting the fresh cracked pepper added on top, I almost choked! The price of the meal I felt was way too over priced. My bill with tip was around $25 for my 1 meal with drinking water. My breaded chicken that was covered in sauce was yummy. There was probabily just 1 cup worth of noodles on the side. And the veggies were hard and so so. Good overall, but small portions compared to the cost. The atmosphere in the resturant was nice. It is located in one small rectangle room, so seating would probabily feel cramped if it was all full of people. I would probabily come back again sometime, and try something new.
