Excellent food. The portions were large. We ordered the dinners Shrimp Fettuccine and Tortellini Alfredo. Comes with soup or salad. Lettuce was crisp and in the Soup you could taste carrot and Celery (which so often gets lost) because of the freshness. We will order...Read More

Delicious is an understatement. This place is a hidden gem. We stumbled upon it and decided to try the eggplant parmesan and angel hair pasta. The portions were generous and the price was reasonable. The food was so tasty. We'll definitely be back!!

I went on a Saturday for lunch and got the meatball sandwich. It was an incredible sandwich and the meatballs were very tasty with a generous amount of sauce. It was a huge meal because it also came with a side of fries, breadsticks, and...Read More
Take outLunch$10–20There are a lot of spots, and even more spots behind the Staples.It’s not a formal sit-down Italian place. It’s just a more casual Italian place with sit-down type food. So unlike traditional Italian restaurants, kids are welcome and there’s tables to sit.

We had a quick bite. They definitely were quick. Very nice customer service. They can customize your meal. They would let you try a couple sauces before you made up your mind. Close to Carlsbad's airport. Would definitely come to visit again when nearby!!

Absolutely loved the Italian food here. The capellini pasta with marinara and veggies was delicious; breadsticks and salad were just perfect! This resto is definitely going to be one of our regular goto's for Italian dining!!
