Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
We had lunch at Italian Cravings and were completely blown away. As someone who needs gluten-free options, finding a place that makes it taste this good is incredible. I had the gluten-free pasta with clams, and it was one of the best I've ever had – truly divine. On top of the amazing food, the staff is just wonderful. Everyone was so kind and made us feel right at home. It was so good that we couldn't resist coming back for dinner the next night! This is our new favorite spot.
Vegetarian spot ; This was the first time visiting this charming Italian restaurant after living in San Clemente for several months. Nestled in the heart of town, it’s a small eatery with a convenient parking lot. We visited on a Sunday afternoon, enjoying a quiet meal as we had the restaurant to ourselves. The food arrived promptly—within about 20 minutes—and it was delicious, especially considering the reasonable prices. We ordered a Cheese Garlic Bread, Greek Salad, with 2 large pizzas, which was pretty good for 5-6 people. Service was attentive; everything we ordered was brought out correctly, and the refillable drinks were a nice touch. The atmosphere added to the experience, with soothing instrumental music playing softly in the background. Just as we were leaving, the place started to fill up, which shows its popularity. Overall, it was a delightful meal with great service and a welcoming vibe. Definitely looking forward to coming back again!
Some of the best Italian I've had in awhile! Kids got the cheese pizza..very good! Husband and I started with clam chowder and the kids stole our bread and requested a second basket, almost like toasted sticks...perfect for dipping. We ordered the seafood pasta and the Cravings Mama Mia...both were delicious but the Cravings Mama Mia.....the sauce was just perfect. Both highly recommend. Service was outstanding.
Amazing Italian and a great price. Togo orders are ready fast if you dont want to eat in there cozy dining room. Definitely a staple in San Clemente.
I've been to this place a few times and my wife and I really like it. We've ordered a few pizzas and both were better than average. A lot of toppings and everything tasted fresh. The dough tasted fresh too. I've been to a few Italian restaurants in San Clemente and I like this place the best. I also have tried the lasagna and trio appetizer and both were pretty good too. We had a great waitress and service too.
