Best Italian Restaurants in Los Alamitos / Cypress

Service was excellent. Food was delicious. The wait time for both getting the table and getting our food was great. The staff are very considerate. I perceived that they are short on staff, considering it's Christmas Day, but service was very kind, attentive and cheerful despite the stress of handling so many tables, even assuring us of getting our food as quick as possible, owing the waiting time before they got our orders. I really have to stress that as a comment of thanks and praise! Food tasted amazing. We had the big thin crust pizza, the pasta with the artichokes and chicken parmesan - all really good, great portions and tasty! We had the calamari as our appetizer. Really good crunch and the spicy marinara had a good kick to it!

I had a reservation, but when I got there, they asked inside or outside or first available. Which is odd because I booked an outside reservation. We were a party of five and one of us got our food about 10 minutes before the rest of us. The pizza was good. The spaghetti was bland. 

Delish!!! Beautiful place to celebrate the holidays

The food was fantastic and only second to the service. Our server was amazing. She was on it, had great suggestions, and never let a drink go empty. The food, as always, was 10/10. If you're going around Christmas, get the pantone butter cake...it's worth the calories!

What an amazing experience from the time we arrived and were greeted by the Reception staff to Chef Bruno in the lobby greeting guests as they come in, this was by far the best experience we have had at any restaurant! We arrived early and were welcome to take photos of the beautiful restaurant and grab a drink at the upstairs bar. My husband had a California Cab and I had a berry Mojito, a special on the menu. The mojito was the best I have ever had! What a great start! We were seated at a quaint table for two and provided water and rolls immediately. We ordered the Volcano Roll for appetizers and it arrived very shortly after. The roll was 6 pieces and I wish there were more because it was so delicious! We ordered our entrees next, I ordered the Blackened Ahi and my husband had the Petite Filet. Both arrived quickly and were presented well. The Blackened Ahi was absolutely fantastic and my husband’s filet was melt-in-your-mouth good! We had the privilege of speaking with Chef Bruno one more time. Brian was so delightful to talk to and engaged in conversation with us. We never felt rushed, and after we ordered the soufflé (definitely order this early in your meal), we were told it would take 20 mins to make. It seemed like it was just minutes and it was at our table. This was the absolute best dessert we have ever had! Our meal was amazing, the staff was amazing, and the restaurant was decorated in the holiday spirit. Such an awesome experience! I’m so glad we came and would come back again in a heartbeat!
