    Good overall. The wait for a table was long but understandable because we were a party of six at peak time. The Linguine spicy calamari had a good texture. The sauce wasn’t anything special. It wasn’t super spicy. The pizza is thin crust and pretty crispy. The garlic bread was good. Nobody had major complaints about what they got.

    Don’t think about it, just come! Especially for a date or with just family or a friend. I just want to take my time to express how awesome this restaurant is. My friend (who I claim has a bad taste in food) was with me. We were nearby so we decided to come for my first time. Our server Bianca (shout out to her) was amazing and recommended me the meal we had. I’m so sorry if I butcher the name, pictures will be added but the pizza was amazing and the pasta even better! I remember the pasta started with Rigatoni, and the pizza was B- something LOL I’ll look it up after and edit the name. I just want to say I need to come back here, and try it with sausage as Bianca recommended us. I can definitely see how that would be amazing. This pasta was something I used to get when I was a kid somewhere else but elevated to another level. You guys have another fan and I just want to express my gratitude. 🙏🏼

    In my opinion, the atmosphere is best part of this restaurant. Outside seating is adorable, somewhat comfortable but very close to other tables. We ordered some beers and a large pepperoni pizza. The Za was, ok. I hear some people LOVE IT HERE however I found the za to be mediocre. I’ve had better pizza else where. Thin crust was tasty. Sauce was ehhh. First time there, it was busy AF which was crazy. I saw someone order ravioli…it looked ok. The dessert was super yummy I’ll give it one more chance, I suppose .

    The food is amazing and the service was outstanding. Parking is tough but you can park in the church lot on Estrella if their lot is full.

    It’s been 9 years since our first visit and that photo (not amazing, but shameless plug) has 2.7 million views to date. We returned this weekend after a few years and as expected, we were greeted by a friendly staff and the food was just as amazing as our first visit. Great atmosphere and great people. A mandatory stop for us in San Clemente. Ciao
