Gourmet Italia

First of all when you walk in and you see the way that the napkins are folded, I was just amazed by that. Call me easily entertained, but I thought their napkins were really cool! Anyway, the decor in here is really amazing but so is the food and the service was great! A local told us to go here and I’m so glad they did. We ended up splitting the pasta with the meat and the sauce, and I forget what it was called but it was so dang good! See the picture attached. Next time I’m in Temecula, I’ll definitely come back.

Samantha and Marco were wonderful! This is a must go if ever in the area. The food is top notch as is the service. Elegant atmosphere.

One of our Favorite Italian restaurants in the Temecula area. Food and service are always top notch. They feature wine and olive oil from their own farm and winery. The specials are always great. Never disappoints.

From the moment we walked in, our experience at Gourmet Italia was special. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff immediately made us feel welcome. Our waitress was knowledgeable and attentive, guiding us through the menu with care and enthusiasm. As we were seated, we heard the soft, beautiful notes of live piano music filling the space. We asked if we could be seated a bit closer, and the staff was more than happy to accommodate—such a thoughtful touch that truly elevated the evening. The food was nothing short of incredible. We started with the Caesar salad, crisp and flavorful, then enjoyed the fettuccine bolognese and the tortellini alla Benigi, both perfectly cooked and rich in flavor. We added a side of grilled chicken breast, which was tender and well-seasoned. To finish, we shared a scoop of chocolate gelato—just the right amount of sweetness to end the meal on a high note. It’s rare to find a place that delivers both outstanding food and a memorable dining experience, but this spot does just that. We will absolutely be back!

Had a lovely meal here on a Thursday. A young man played the piano in the background and the staff offered complimentary champagne for our celebration. All the food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Thank you Samantha for your recommendations and attention to detail. Everyone had a great time and we are sure to be back!

Live music, great service, and delicious food with a nice selection of wines. Our whole group—large and full of kids after a soccer tournament—was well taken care of, and everyone enjoyed their meal.

I visited this establishment, hoping to enjoy some lasagna. The initial hospitality wasn't particularly welcoming, although our server was kind and attentive. We ordered two dishes with a Caesar salad and were surprised to find a fresh anchovy in the salad, which wasn't listed on the menu. Unfortunately, we couldn't decline the salad once it arrived, and we discovered the anchovy. Since the Caesar salad wasn't listed in the menu, it would have been nice to be told just in case someone dislikes fish/ anchovy. The lemon chicken with vegetables was excessively salty and oily. The lasagna was acceptable, though our experience was negatively impacted by the anchovy. The prices were high, and the overall quality of the food wasn't exceptional. I wouldn't recommend this establishment, nor do I plan to return. I was quite disappointed with my visit and the food.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow — Gourmet Italia never disappoints! The food and service are absolutely over the top. Every bite was fresh, full of flavor, and authentically Italian. You can tell there’s real passion behind what they do. Huge shoutout to Samantha and Marcus for making our experience exceptional. They were friendly, attentive, and made us feel completely taken care of from start to finish. If you’re in Temecula and want a place that delivers both amazing food and top-notch service, this is it!

chicken lemon with angel hair pasta was phenomenal. I'll be dreaming about it for days. Definitely will be coming back For more. Joelle was amazing!

We made our reservation online (Easy), Asked for a quite table for four (Got it). Start to finish everything was GREAT - Chianti, appetizers, salad, entrées and dessert. Service (Hailey L. and her support) were on top of everything and made a nice impression on our friends. I'm sure they will go back again on their own. Always good food and service.

We were invited by a great friend to try this awesome restaurant. Wow, what a great Italian restaurant. As soon as we stepped inside, we can feel the nice decor and atmosphere. Very elegant and upscale. Please note, this is a very popular restaurant. Reservation is highly recommended for large group. Our server Jeremy was very friendly and welcoming. Made us feel right at home. Great hospitality! There were 11 of us all together. For me, I ordered the following: - Fusilli Calabrese (Chicken, mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes in a light tomato cream sauce) As a group we ordered the following to share: - Calamari Fritti w/ Cherry Peppers We end the evening with the: - Tiramisu The Fusilli Calabrese was so good. Loved the mushrooms and the sun-dried tomatoes. The light tomato cream sauce was very tasty. Goes well with the pasta. As for the Calamari Fritti, wow, it was so so good. Our friend said this dish is very good, and she wasn't wrong. Glad we decided to order this item to share. Will definitely get this item again in the future. The Tiramisu was very delicious. Not too sweet. Melt in your mouth. What a great evening! Glad we had the opportunity to try this place. Had a great time and meeting new friends! Thanks Janet for the invite!

I did not know this place existed! I've been to the coffee shop next door. I've been to 88 Ranch Market and never seen this. Thanks to fellow Yelper extraordinaire, Janet, who invited a bunch of Yelpies for a Friendsgiving dinner on a Saturday night, I have now discovered a gem! Parking can be a bear on a Saturday night but it's possible. Definitely reserve a table beforehand or you will be waiting. There were 12 of us and without the reservation it would've been impossible to get in. I was the last to arrive and it was difficult getting the attention of the front desk. Thankfully another guest noticed I was lost. She pointed me toward the direction of the table which was tucked far away in the back. This place is bigger than I thought. There's a antique style part and a larger, modern addition. I will say our waiter, Jeremy did a great job handling all the Yelp Elites at this table. We can be a handful. He also helpers who brought out the food and cleared the table. I am giving it 4 stars for the lasagna. It wasn't my favorite. The price point for it was very high. It was mushy. I did try my friends lamb chop and out was fire. I don't normally eat lamb but this was cooked to perfection. I also got the Gourmet salad. The salad was very good. My teen got fettuccine Alfredo. She said some of the pasta was al dente. She does not like hard pasta. I guess you have to clarify here. The highlight of our evening was the owner came by to every table. He's a hoot. We even got a picture with him and our table. I would give it another try next time but ditch the lasagne.

Definitely my favorite Italian restaurant in Temecula. I have enjoyed it every time I have gone and I have tried many items on the menu. We were treated very well and the food was quite delicious. Also it's a very nice atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant .

Really delicious food and great service. Ambiance is intimate and romantic. We have been there 3xs. We just went again for our 3rd wedding anniversary. Just a heads up, the soda fountain hasn't worked the times we were there. My husband doesn't drink alcohol so he had to drink water each time we went. Other than that, we have been consistently satisfied and I do recommend going here.

Catered gourmet italia for my wedding and the food was amazing. For appetizers, we ordered 6 antipasto boards and they were sooo good and it was more than enough for 150 guests. For the entrees, we ordered 3 types of pastas: filet, chicken, and tomato sauce. Guests were very impressed with how amazing they tasted. We also ordered two kinds of salads and they were also very yummy. The manager, Jennifer, was a huge help. She assisted us with ordering the food and even delivered it herself. Could not have asked for better food for my wedding!!

Honestly one of best meals we've had in this area. Service was quickly, friendly, and amazing. Our server recommended a blueberry mojito mocktail drink for me and it was delicious! We celebrated having family come to town and our baby announcement. Everyone's plate was tasty and cooked extremely well. My husband and MIL ordered their lobster ravioli (special), my FIL ordered their lasagne, and I ordered their seafood pasta (special) - everything was amazing and cooked perfectly. To share, we had the bruschetta, and it's probably one of the best bruschetta we've ever had. At the end, our server provided us with a complimentary cannoli - she was so sweet and thoughtful. The restaurant is really cozy inside and had different seating areas. Really great for a casual dinner, date night, celebration, etc.

I haven't eaten here in years--had an ok experience many years ago, but recently, they catered a rehearsal dinner I went to and I was blown away. Everything from short rib lasagna to shrimp pasta, bruschetta, salads and everything in between was amazing. Now, I've got to revisit the restaurant.

How the heck have I never written a review for this place before?? I've been coming here for years. One of my favorite places for pasta. My go to is always the seafood pasta. I'm usually a light white or wine sauce pasta girl, but the tomato sauce on there is so good. I'm obsessed with their complimentary olive tapenade & bread. I once tried to order something else & ordered their pasta carbonara. But I thought it was too rich. But I'll always come here for their seafood pasta & their olive tapenade. Service is always great, & we do enjoy the live music sometimes.

Fantastic service very romantic atmosphere and the food was absolutely delicious. I am Italian so I definitely approve of this place and would recommend anyone going to Temecula. Our waitress was Hailey L. She was very attentive, kind and generous an, over-the-top waitress that really did her job and made our night even more enjoyable. The food makes a place great but attentive service that is served makes the food and the establishment attractive to go back to. We had the specials, the seafood Linguini and the lobster ravioli. Both were really tasty and we ended the night when some sort of lemon dessert which was incredible .

11 out of 10!!!! Everything is fantastic and amazing! The drinks, food, service and prices all rock. I had a wonderful birthday dinner.

The experience at this restaurant was amazing. Our waitress Nadia was the best. She was friendly, knew the specials like the back of her hand and was truly the best. She makes us want to go back! The food was beyond amazing. My boyfriend is Sicilian and he was in heaven. The whole restaurant was beautiful. Thank you Nadia for making it the best dinner ever!

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner! Located in a big plaza so parking was relatively easy. Staff was nice and accommodating. Restaurant itself is large and provided ample seating! The calamari was my favorite part of the dinner! The breading was perfect, perfectly salty, and the sauce was delicious! I ordered the fettuccine bolognese with a side of meatballs. I thought it was just OK. I tried their squid ink pasta with scallops and was upset I didn't order that instead!

Our server Hailey was super nice and friendly. Talked to us about the specials and made sure our drinks were to our liking. Answered our questions about food my food allergies. Everything came out perfect. She made our evening special and we will definitely be back!

First of all when you walk in and you see the way that the napkins are folded, I was just amazed by that. Call me easily entertained, but I thought their napkins were really cool! Anyway, the decor in here is really amazing but so is the food and the service was great! A local told us to go here and I'm so glad they did. We ended up splitting the pasta with the meat and the sauce, and I forget what it was called but it was so dang good! See the picture attached. Next time I'm in Temecula, I'll definitely come back.

Back again, last night, after making the hour drive down to have dinner. This experience was similar to the last one, amazing! Once again, we were greeted by the Host, Francisco who was able to accommodate my seating request. Francisco also provided us with his attention throughout the evening. He is such a professional and gracious host. Our server, this time, was Hailey and she was incredible! Honestly, Hailey was so friendly and provided a superior level of service! We really enjoyed meeting her. The food was amazing, as it was previously. My date had the Pasta Bolognese and I had the Lobster Ravioli. Both dishes were perfect! My only regret, was that I wish that I lived closer. Thank you Francisco and Hailey and your team for a wonderful evening.

It was very very crowded. You could tell that the management overbooked their reservations.

We love coming here to sit at the bar and enjoy our dinner. We always have a good conversation with Celene and her espresso martinis. Only reason we come here

Me and my husband are speechless. Best italian food I've ever had. The dishes and flavors were incredible. Very great service and ambiance was very romantic and great for a date night or a nice dinner party. Will definitely be back again. It was incredible

Italian run restaurant just on the other side of old town Temecula. The ambiance is intimate, but has a very comforting atmosphere at the same time. Decor reminds you of the furniture and pictures you'd see at your grandparents (nonna's) house. The reservation my friends and I made were at 8:30 on Sunday evening, so being we didn't come during the height of dinner rush we were sat immediately, and everything we ordered came out quite quickly. For starters I had the Insalata fattore. The tomato and mozzarella were lightly seasoned but very fresh. It was a very tasty salad and was a pretty decent portion size as well. My only complaint is the menu claims there are Kalamata olives in the dish, but I didn't see nor taste any which was a bummer. For my entree I opted for the classic Bolognese. Very hearty meat sauce with fresh made noodles, and again was a decent portion so definitely expect to get full. The waitress who recommended the dish did mention that she usually adds red pepper flakes to offset the sweeter aftertaste you get with this dish, which I should've asked for & definitely will tell you readers to do, but even without it was a well executed dish. If you're a pasta lover like me I think you'll really enjoy Gourmet Italia. If you're a first time visitor of the Temecula area though just be sure to make an earlier reservation, so that you can also drive over and walk/shop around old town before the sun sets.

Tonight my husband and I had date night at this restaurant, I ordered a glass of red wine, 20 minutes after ordering midway through my dinner I had to ask the server hey can you bring that glass of cab that I ordered? He asked me if I wanted Parmesan on my pasta I said yes he never came back by the time I was done with dinner, I asked him to put the Parmesan on my pasta and packed the rest to go. The owner of the restaurant could be seen micromanaging all the employees as if they weren't running around enough, the staff is over worked and the owner needs to help, the owner came to my table to clear dishes never say hello how was the food? Nothing just took the dishes away without saying anything, service is lackluster.

Pretty good place Food was amazing The ambience is warm and very cozy Really happy With the service 100% recomended We had a great time

Gourmet Italia could easily be on "Kitchen Nightmares." Pretty good food hampered by the worst service I can remember in years. To that point, this will be my first true one star review in a long time. To set the stage, my dad made reservations for 7:30 for 8 for my mom's birthday. We came to Temecula as a destination and none of us lived particularly close. We arrived at the restaurant at 7;25 and were met with hostility. My mom (the birthday girl) was scolded for going in the wrong door to the restaurant (though there was no signage indicate you couldn't use it) and my dad and I were rather curtly told our table wasn't ready and we couldn't stand near the host stand. Time passed, 40 minutes in fact. At 8:05, 35 minutes after our reservation we began thinking they had been lying to us about having a table "almost ready". We scoured the restaurant and found only one table big enough to suit the party and then applied a bit of pressure asking the host stand why it is taking so long. Finally at 8:10, 40 minutes late. We were seated. The night progressed from bad to worse. We were informed many items were not available on the menu (including a Caesar salad, multiple beers, and some appetizer type items) and then had a confusing interaction over the specials. Our waitress told us the specials included a filet. When I ordered the chop (another special) the "manager" came around and informed me they were out of that too, so I asked for the filet. I was told they didn't have a filet by her. So I ordered lasagna. Then our waitress came back and said they did in fact have a filet. In the end I did get the filet... Which brings me to my next problem. Dinner took 70 minutes to arrive! So at 9:20 pm, almost 2 hours after we arrived, we had got dinner. During this time, the restaurant cleared out, and people coming near our table were few and far between. It felt like we were just forgotten about. We contemplated ordering DoorDash because we truly didn't know what was going on. Multiple times we had to go back to the kitchen and try to find somebody to check on the status of our meal. Even the band who was playing packed and left. When the food came out, it was good. Generally no big complaints other than the quality of a few of the items felt a bit cheap (e.g. gristle in the filet). But the notion of being nearly the last table in the restaurant, with a crying 2 year old an hour past his bed time, alone in a corner, really hampered the taste of any food and cast a shadow on my mom's birthday. The insult to injury came at the end. No discount or concession was offered. The only thing they offered was a free dessert, which we politely declined as my dad had a custom cake for my mom waiting at home. They forced the dessert on us however... and didn't even give us enough places or utensils to eat it with! My dad graciously tipped the waitress the full 20% as she was quite apologetic and seemingly embarrassed by the hellacious service. She took down my dad's number to have to owner/manager call and "make thighs right." They never did. If you are a party of 2 or 4 and want some good, Olive Garden grade food, Gourmet Italia may be for you. But otherwise, steer clear. This is an embarrassment to the restaurant industry. Ambiance: 3/5 Service: 0/5 Drinks: 3/5 Food: 3.5/5 Value: 2/5 Consistency: N/A

We haven't been here in a while. This place is still SUPER CONSISTENT in terms of the flavor and the quality of the food! Francesca's & Trattoria Toscana doesn't even come close... We like to celebrate an occasion like an ANNIVERSARY, BIRTHDAY or CHRISTMAS. This place is beautiful and it has a winery bar lounge.... LIVE PIANO: SATURDAY & SUNDAY from 3-6pm. ( young girl playing Classical music ) LIVE MUSIC: Friday and Saturday at 6pm. SEAFOOD PASTA: 5/5 looks as beautiful as it tastes! The mussels were so sweet and the seafood was so FRESH! SQUID INK PASTA: 5/5 signature dish! BRANZINO: 4/5 Very good and doesn't smell. However, there are lots of bones! CHICKEN Parm with spaghetti : 3.5/5 PASTA was delicious but, the chicken was DRY! LOBSTER RAVIOLI: 5/5 muah! CALAMARI: 5/5 Magnifico! Lunch time is pretty open so we would definitely be back! Highly recommend making a RESERVATION for DINNER! SERVICE: A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Very hardworking and nice people here! However, we didn't get our TIRAMISU birthday cake for the birthday boy ;) Who is the chef here? He deserves a standing ovation! We have people coming from LA and SD for this GEM in Temecula ;) BRAVO GOURMET ITALIA!!!!!!!!

We've come here for birthdays and special occasions for years, but after our most recent visit, I don't think we'll be back. The service and food quality were so shockingly poor. Not sure if it was an off night but it was terrible, I rarely write reviews. We had a 7:00 PM reservation and weren't seated until past 7:30 PM, with no apology or explanation. We were only sat because we asked multiple times if our table was almost ready - we had a babysitter and needed to be back home by a certain time. Once we finally sat down, it took another 30 minutes just to be offered water. The restaurant serves bread while waiting to order, so we asked several times if we could have some while we waited -- we were so hungry by that point. The server kept saying it was "coming right out of the oven," but when it finally arrived (around 8 PM), it was cold. When our waiter finally came, we placed our entire order immediately, but our food didn't arrive for over an hour. When it did, both caesar salads were missing croutons and Parmesan, which is why we normally love this particular salad at this restaurant. We also told them we were celebrating a birthday, as we've done here many times before, and we weren't even offered a dessert as we have been several times in the past -- not even a "happy birthday" acknowledgment. We would've happily paid for dessert, but we weren't even offered a dessert menu to browse. It wouldn't have mattered, by the end we were just ready to leave. We left feeling like we wasted $200 on what would have been well worth it if our reservation was honored, our service was timely by the time we were sat, and the food quality wasn't so far from what we are used to from this place. I hope management reviews this and takes it seriously. We will likely not be returning.

We are Poggio Leano wine club members and love dining at the bar on the lounge side for the relaxed vibe, live music, good food and wine and five star service and entertainment from our favorite bartender, Selene (aka Skinny)!

Love Gourmet Italia! Love the staff! Celine has a wonderfully warm personality and is very attentive of her customers. Francesco is always welcoming and caring for the customers. We look for both anytime we come in!

Celene is always quick to greet us with a smile and she always remembers my name. We love the wine and food here and her hospitality is consistently excellent.

Haylee was awesome as a server. The food was outstanding, but we will come back for Haylee 10 times over.

After a lovely morning of blueberry picking, we decided to stop at Gourmet Italia for lunch. We called ahead and were told they had availability and to "come on in." When we arrived, we were rudely greeted by a male host who abruptly told us they had no room for a party of 8 and that we needed a reservation. I explained we had just called and were told otherwise--but despite the restaurant being nearly empty, he told us to wait Thankfully, once we were finally seated, our waitress was wonderful--patient, informative, and genuinely friendly. Unfortunately, things took a turn again when the same male host brought out our appetizers. He aggressively placed the beet salad down, causing some of the frisée to fall off the plate. To our shock, he then picked the fallen greens up with his bare hands and put them back on the plate. It didn't stop there. He delivered the calamari and, rather than handing it to me or waiting for me to clear space, he placed the dish directly on top of dirty napkins that were still on the table--despite clearly seeing I was trying to make room. This level of carelessness and lack of hygiene is completely unacceptable. While our waitress did her best to salvage the experience, the actions of this particular staff member left us incredibly disappointed and uncomfortable. For a restaurant that presents itself as "gourmet," the standards--both in hospitality and basic food service protocol--were shockingly low.

My wife and I had some really good pasta here last night. I had your must do well to be a good Italian place spaghetti with meat sauce. My wife had fettuccine with vodka sauce. Wow perfect cook on the pasta. Excellent sauce. It came out in good time and temperature. Had a nice plate of bread and some of the best olive tapenade I've ever had. The owner dropped by to see how things were. Hell he cleared a few plates off the table. Nice man. Service was ok. People checked in on us. I think the bar was a little overwhelmed. My red wine took a bit. It was a house Sangiovese (did I spell that right??). A lighter wine, balanced body, lighter fruit notes like strawberry, pomegranate, and a slight smokiness. The color was medium. Lighter alcohol %. Went well even with the deep dark meat sauce. I wish they had more Chianti or a Super Tuscan!!! I think most of the wines are from the owners wineries. I would recommend this place. I think late on the weekend evenings it will be very crowded. So book a reservation.

The consistency of excellence in flavorful entrees year over year makes this restaurant my all time favorite for Italian. The proprietor is a charming character and keeps the ambience elegant yet comfortable. If you enjoy wine... you have many choices. Service was polite and attentive- i always feel spoiled here!

I snuck in for a quick bite of tortellini and a glass of wine and Hailey was an incredible server. She was fun, attentive, and made my dining experience so memorable. Would go back just for Hailey and her amazing service. And the tortellini is one of my favorite dishes.

Very nice establishment with amazing Italian food. Service was top notch and I would highly recommend. You can sit inside or outside.

Had an amazing meal tonight! Samantha was very attentive but not in an intrusive way. She recommended a lovely meal that exceeded expectations. Bravo!

Our server Hailey was AMAZING!! Super friendly and polite. The seafood here is very well done. Everyone was attentive and ask how we were doing multiple times throughout the night. Would recommend!

They had live music which was great. They did covers of songs I listen to so I enjoyed the band. This place was a packed house. The food was delicious! I got the chicken parmigiana. You can choose what type of pasta you want on the side. I got angel hair. The portions are filling so I was able to take half of it home. The prices are fair for the portion and quality of food you get. The only downer was we had a reservation for 7:30pm and the table was not ready for about 45mins later. What made the wait bearable was the live music and the continuous communication with the restaurant owner who was very Italian and hospitable. He was funny and was rushing to get the table free and cleared as fast as he could.

Ordered the calamari and loved the crispy pieces with the sliced peppers and spicy marinara sauce. Excellent appetizer! My main course was a pasta with seafood which was delicious. Great service and will return in the future.!!!!

My wife and I stumbled onto this restaurant after getting a pedicure in the same plaza. What an absolute gem authentic Italian cuisine my wife had the salmon and I had the chicken marsala and we finished it off with spumoni Bomba dessert Jennifer and Francisco were extremely friendly and attentive throughout our entire lunch check this place out for sure.!

Wow this place is pretty good! I'd give it a solid 5 star but we had to wait 45 minutes to an hour for our table to be ready - we had a reservation. They were really busy and short staffed. The food made up for it though! I'll be back...

We had a wonderful experience, as always. Torey was an exceptional server, always checking on us and having great recommendations. We enjoyed the Sangiovese with their lasagna and pasta with chicken and both were delicious. Dessert is a must, we took cannolis home for the family. A must try Italian restaurant.

Gourmet Italian serves some delicious food. In fact it was some of the best we've had in quite a while. If only... things were... a little less uneven. We arrived a few minutes before our Open Table reservation and stood for about ten minutes as the hostess tried to arrange things. Eventually we were told to sit on the couch and she would get us seated shortly. Interestingly, the two parties who came in after us were seated immediately. Not a good sign. After another ten minutes, we were seated in what I would call their grotto area, to the left of the entrance. Our server Ashley came by and introduced herself. She was incredibly nice and welcoming. She listed the Specials and asked if we're celebrating anything that evening. Nice! We started by ordering some wine and the Bruschetta. Ashley gave us some time to relax and then took our order. She was very professional and attentive, without being on top of us. We tried their Poghio Leano house wine, which we found to be pretty tasty. Their Bruschetta had a nice taste too. It came with fresh cherry tomatoes and had a subtle taste of garlic. See photos. For our entrées, we went with their Manila Clams in a white wine reduction sauce Spaghetti and Baked Ziti. Both were exceptionally tasty and generous in portion size. The only drawback to our meal, was the staff trying to bus some of the items off our table before we were done. In their defense, the table sizes here are pretty small and tightly located and you are on top of your neighbor. Btw our neighbors and us, were each celebrating anniversaries. So we were close enough to have some nice casual conversations with them during the evening. Our bill before taxes and gratuities, came to just over $100 including our wine, appetizer and entrées... which we thought seemed pretty fair. Four and a Half Stars.

Took my boyfriend (who is Italian) to Gourmet Italia last night! I've eaten there several times, but this was his first time. Alex greeted us at the door, a beautiful hostess seated us at a lovely table and Haley was our server. We had an amazing time. We are both foodies and with him being Italian, i was hoping he would like it. He loved it! Haley was the best server, the ambiance was serene, the pianist was on point and the food was amazing (as usual). I will definitely taking him back. Thanks Gourmet Italia.

We made reservations for party of 9. We were seated when the party was complete. The food was excellent and the serving was plenty . The servers were attentive and they allowed us to stay long and enjoy the food and company. I would definitely eat here again if I am in the area. Ambiance was nice and plenty of parking. It's in the pricey side but it was a special occasion .

We all chose daily specials. The boys went with the Veal Chop with mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus. I picked Lobster Ravioli. Everything was AMAZING including the chocolate gelato! We didn't have reservations but we were seated right away. The music was great and we loved the ambiance!

Wow! What an absolute gem. I wish I could give this place 100 stars. This is the ideal spot for a romantic dinner. I made a reservation, however this place is very busy! We were asked to wait in the lounge which featured couches and live piano. We were then seated in the red dining room. Christina was our server and she was wonderful. The bread with olive tapenade was life changing. Seriously, it was that good. For dinner I had the manicotti and my husband had the lasagna. We shared s side of meatballs. Everything was absolutely delicious. For dessert we had the frutti di bosco cake. It was one of the best desserts we have ever had. It was light, fruity, and the perfect amount of sweetness. We also shared a bottle of wine and some cocktails. Overall, the night was an absolute dream and we cannot wait to go back when we are in the area.

We did the olive oil and wine tasting. Had a great time! Never did Olive oil tasting before and with the bread it was very yummy. I liked that we had our own private tasting room. I am terrible with names but i think it was Megan who helped us. She was so sweet and entertaining! We got a 20% discount of products for doing the wine tasting. They also offer pretty good packages for their wine club. If u guys ever come to LA i will e the first to sign up for it!

Went in today with my husband and son. We had a very nice experience! The bread is delicious, my seafood pasta was so delicious and packed with seafood, my husbands chicken pasta was superb aswell. I will definitely be coming back!
