Excellent service, food, and tasted like a home cooked meal! Great find at Newport Beach and the restaurant is a local favorite and now mine. The waiters also give great recommendations if it’s your first time ordering. Food comes out hot and fresh and easily can share portions. Follow me for move local hangouts and fun places to explore!

I was really in the mood for Chicken Parm tonight but as an Italian American who grew up in NYC I am very particular about Italian restaurants. I saw that this restaurant was highly reviewed and saw a number of groups outside waiting for a table - and after eating here I know why! Really great Italian American food- their sauces are fantastic. Portions are also very large - I’m a hearty eater and I could barely finish. As good as their food is (and it really is good!) the service may arguably be better. Everyone was super friendly and attentive despite the fact the restaurant was extremely busy. Highly recommended
Popular for a good reason, the food is great and it feels like a family is running the place. I had the chicken parmesan and enjoyed it. My dinner came with a nice portion of spaghetti and veggies. Fresh toasted bread who was served with a seasoned olive oil for dipping. ????
