About Maggiano’s Little Italy
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.
Review: Maggiano's Little Italy My recent visit to Maggiano's was an absolute delight! The entire experience, from the moment we walked in, was fantastic. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and feels like a classic Italian-American family dinner, making it the perfect setting for any occasion. The service was impeccable—our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. And the food? Simply amazing. I opted for the lunch special and was completely blown away by the quality and portion size. The dish was incredibly flavorful and prepared to perfection, a true testament to the kitchen's dedication to classic Italian recipes. It was a perfect blend of fresh ingredients and bold flavors. I can't wait to go back and try another one of their delicious specials!
This place went beyond my expectations. I was able to meet the chef he came out and shook my hand. And the manager came by my table as well the service was top tier and the food was immaculate! I recommend this place 10/10 from dinner dates to birthday parties
Awesome experience last night at Maggiano’s by South Coast Plaza. Plenty of parking. We made reservations for a party of 5 at five pm (We like to eat dinner early and beat the crowd, haha) Very nice atmosphere, not busy on a Friday around 5 pm. By the time we left, maybe 6:30 pm, the place was really busy and people waiting inside and outside the restaurant to be seated. Our waiter, Eduardo, was excellent. Very professional, polite, kind, and attentive. Food was delicious, worth every penny. High quality and good quantity. My wife and I usually order an appetizer, then split a main dish, and then get some dessert. Love the atmosphere!
My husband brought us here to celebrate my birthday 🎂 this was our first time at Maggiano’s and our experience was AMAZING! Our server Eddie made this experience truly extraordinary, he was kind, knowledgeable, and overall helpful. He had the best recommendations, even letting us try different wines based on our liking. We will only be coming back to have Eddie as our server. Thank you so much Eddie! 🙌
We visited the Maggianos near South Coast Plaza on a busy Saturday night. We had a reservation and we were seated. Immediately, service was congenial, quick yet efficient. Our server Taylor was very friendly and attentive. Had the best chicken piccata of my life. Compliments to the chef!
