Delicious Italian eatery! The Pepe salad is so great, I’d go back for that alone! Shrimp pizza was great too. Complimentary bread and a small salad come with pasta plates. I had the baked ziti which was good too. The restaurant is on the small side but has a a cozy, family owned feel. Parking may be a little tough as you have to find a spot in the street, so allow some time for that. High chairs available. This place is CASH only, come prepared. PpThis is a great hole in the wall restaurant and it’s hard to go wrong on anything you order, definitely recommend!

This place is cash only first of all, just as an FYI. The food was average to mediocre at best. The carbonara that we got had burnt pancetta and onions that just dominated the flavor. The pizza was lack luster in flavor, sauce, and crust. I would recommend elsewhere if I had friends visiting and doubt I’ll be back.

Delicious food! My favorite is the Stromboli. A calzone filled with mozzarella, ricotta, pepperoni, sausage, onion, and mushrooms, covered with one of the best red sauce I’ve ever had! The combo salad is also fantastic, (penne, pesto bow tie, marinated cucumber and tomato, garbanzos, and red cabbage. They also have the fluffiest and most delicious cheesecake as well. Order anything, and you won’t be disappointed. Small, but nice wine and beer selections.

This is a tiny cash only neighborhood Italian restaurant. They make an award winning Florentine pizza with delicious sautéed spinach and a blend of special cheeses. The tutte mare pasta is well balanced and delicious. The fettuccine with clams was savory. The cheese lasagna was overwhelming with its thick layers of ricotta. Do not miss the garlic rolls, but ask the server to minimize the olive oil.

Salad was delicious. Made sure i finished even just the sauce with the bread. Pesto pasta was good too. Pizza was ok or.maybe we ordered the wrong flavour. Calzone dessert was just ok too. Shouldnhave ordered the tiramisu. Staff are all pleasant and helpful.

This is some of the best Italian food ever!! Everything is so delicious that I can’t pick a favorite dish. The Cesar salad has some of the best dressing I’ve ever had, the Bianca bread is fresh and delicious, and the white pizza has amazing crust. It was well worth the drive to Pasadena!

2 slices with pepperoni and side salad for $11 is a great deal. Add that the food is delicious and it’s got to be over off the best lunch deals in Pasadena. The dough is crisp under cheese but soft at the crust end. Well be back.

So, I never noticed this place even though I’m always in Pasadena. I had a craving for spaghetti and meatballs today, and I decided to get one from here. The ambiance is interesting, it is kind of like eating in someone’s basement or something.
