Gregorio's Restaurant

When the reservation was made, we were asked 'would you like to sit inside or outside?' My husband mentioned 'well, we're coming for our anniversary so which would you recomnend?' Host said 'we have a nice covered patio, I'll put you out there.' Unfortunately, they didn't remember there was a 30(+) people party that was scheduled to have dinner at the same time that would be taking up the entire covered patio. 🙄 so we were sat on the side of the building between a wall and a planter where the members of the party had to squeeze by and bend over our table to get to their very beautifully set up patio. So when we asked to sit inside, we grabbed our own silverware and were sat at the smallest table in the middle of the room. Not at the nice corner table by the windows or the high table with the beautiful decor on the wall. There were two other tables being used and a few couples at the bar eating. Not busy at all, plenty of room to accommodate a couple having dinner on their anniversary. The strawberry lemon drop was good though. 🍸 We got the check at left. So disappointing. The food on the menu on the website looked like it could be good.

Absolutely incredible experience at Gregorio near the Vatican! From the moment we sat down, we were blown away—not just by the food, but by the service. Our server, Miki, was amazing—so knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole night feel special. We started with the Sexy Woman and Paloma cocktails—both delicious and perfectly balanced. The tuna tartare and squid were standouts, but honestly, every dish we tried was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The vibe? Spot on. Lighting is warm and cozy, and the space is super comfortable—perfect for a relaxed yet elevated evening out. If you’re anywhere near the Vatican, do yourself a favor and go. Highly recommend!

We went for a late afternoon lunch. The restaurant was about 20% full. Service was rather slow about 10 minutes before we had someone come over to the table. I felt the food was about average. Calamari was well prepared and the pasta was fairly good, however the pizza was well overdone and was scorched on the bottom. Prices were on the high end for the area. The atmosphere was good and views were very nice.

Gregorio's is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the cozy Italian villa ambiance set the perfect tone for a memorable evening. We visited on a Saturday night without a reservation and were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately! The handmade pizzas were a hit at our table — absolutely delicious — and the gluten-free pasta was hands down one of the best I've ever had. My husband loved the gnocchi. Everyone was raving about their meals! Our server was an absolute queen — charismatic, attentive, and made our night so much fun. She truly elevated the whole experience. The wine selection was fantastic as well, perfectly complementing the flavorful dishes. If you're craving authentic Italian cuisine with great vibes and exceptional service, Gregorio's is the place to go! Can't wait to return.

Excellent food and service. They have indoor and outdoor seating with live music. Great little spot within walking distance of the beach.

This place is awesome, we have always wanted to go in but never quite made it there not sure why but this is our new favorite place to go. Give me a shout out to Christian and Spencer. Even the bread here is really good and one of my favorites is the butter is warmed and ready to spread. The chicken and broccoli was amazing. I was so full that I could not even eat dessert which does not happen very often. Can't wait to go back and try the other stuff and the desserts. They do have a good wine selection here also.

My husband and I went there for a glass of wine and an Appetizer for our anniversary last Saturday. It was roughly 30 minutes before they closed. However, our waitress was amazing! She was very welcoming and helped answered any questions we may had. The appetizers were HUGE portions. The atmosphere during this time was very calming. We will definitely be coming back.

This place does everything AMAZINGLY well!! We’ve had the supreme pizza numerous times (the perfectly crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, abundant toppings delicious kind) and decided to try out the pasta. I had the ravioli and subbed Alfredo sauce (the best I’ve ever had and they make their own pasta - gigantic ravioli!) and my husband had pasta primavera. We had a Caesar salad beforehand and they even nailed the dressing. Hands down fabulous food across the board!

First night in Carlsbad and everyone was craving Italian ! Found this place made a reservation and upon walking up the indoors is so pretty, it's an open kitchen, has a huge balcony and hidden bathrooms ! Koral took care of us and she was so kind, patient and honest !! Super sweet gal. (Thanks so much I remember her name because it's so pretty !) Everything we got was 10/10 and was perfectly proportioned. Drinks delish- got 2 Italian Paloma's and a Italian marg We come every summer around the 4th and this place will definitely be added to the list of coming back to enjoying again !!

It's a great Italian resturant in the adorable village town faire shopping. They had beautiful life music tonight. The server Claire was very helpful in my food decision. I enjoy coming here when I'm in CA They have an elevator to get to the upper floor . Inside outside dining.

"Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar Dancing on the light from star to star (Neil Young) On Thursday evening, in the one hour between 5:30 and 6:30 pm, the outdoor dining patio at Gregorio's went from a very sparsely populated tranquil space to a jam-packed crowded party atmosphere with plenty of hooting and hollering. After dinner, when we left the patio to exit through the restaurant proper, the inside dining rooms were just as packed. So, we can deduce that Gregorio's is crazy popular -maybe for their food, pricing, atmosphere, Happy Hour or a combination of things. Our server Brandee was very pleasant and funny and made us feel welcome. She started us off with a nice hunk of sliced Italian bread and a scoop of whipped butter. We went into the Happy Hour menu for two things. The first was a Tossed Salad for sharing at $9.00 with "Green leaf lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrots, red onion, bell pepper, and marinated mushrooms. Served with house red wine vinaigrette". The second was HH Eggplant Parmigiana ($15.00) - "Eggplant fried & layered with cheese & tomato sauce" I went into their regular menu for Shrimp & Calamari ($19.00) - "Sautéed in our arrabbiata. Not breaded or fried!" The salad was very good and the HH portion was plenty for us to split. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her eggplant, but there were some improvement opportunities with the shrimp and calamari. Don't get me wrong, the dish had a lot of really good things going on. First of all, it was served piping hot! The arrabbiata sauce was excellent, with a deep tomato flavor, and plenty of spicy zing, and there must have been 8 ounces of sauce in that dish. It had 5 or 6 big shrimps there that were excellent. The problem was the rubbery calamari rings; they were a real disappointment and echoed some of the worst chewy versions I ever had. I mentioned it to our server, and she said "oh, were they over-cooked? I'll let the chef know". We had a very good time at Gregorio's that sure could have been better....

Their service is excellent and they have the BEST Meatball Sandwiches and homemade Potato Chips! Whenever I visit Carlsbad, I try to stop in for a Meatball Sandwich!

The absolute worst place to be!! The owner( was his wife ) we were all having a great time laughing enjoying our time, now to be insulted by the owners we even brought drinks what a pathetic piece of work!!! I will not ever or my friends come back to this place again!!! The staff said not to say anything!! We all felt like trash here!!!was a complete really disservice here!!!

Always a favorite spot, especially when we have guests in town. Love the Staff, always welcoming. Food & drinks never disappoint!

This is a fantastic place to get some great Italian food in Carlsbad Village. It has a wonderful patio upstairs with a great view of the village and live music a few times weekly with great performers. The bar is top notch with a fantastic wine selection and the food is always delicious. Highly recommended.

This was my first time visiting Gregorio's restaurant and we came to celebrate an out-of-town friend's birthday. The ambience was good and we had a nice view from the outside patio. Being in the heart of Carlsbad Village, there's a lot of foot traffic and you can often enjoy good live music coming from Coyote's Bar. The wait staff was friendly, helpful, and overall attentive to our needs. The restaurant was clean despite being in the middle of dinner rush. I feel like there was room for improvement with regards to the food and drinks in general. A couple of us had to have our cocktails sent back because it was subpar and for a fine Italian Eatery, I expected the Eggplant Parm to be better. It was lukewarm and a little overcooked. We all did enjoy the chopped Antipasti salad and Artichoke & Spinach dip. Perhaps we'll give it a second chance at some point.

The most sub par, overpriced pasta experience. The food was not a hit in our experience. Out $100 for two plates of food and a kids pasta. Feels wrong to pay for food you didnt enjoy. Good location and the young lady who helped us were the positives. Although when I shared feedback about my dislike of the bolognese her response was not that of understanding but rather her own affirmation for it.

The food, drinks, staff & atmosphere are Great! We have been coming here for years & just Love it! A neighborhood gem for sure ! :)

Really loved this place! The BMGT seriously fantastic - I'm still thinking about it - The atmosphere is really comfortable - I love the Carlsbad Village area this restaurant has outdoor seating - the service was great our waitress had wonderful suggestions nothing disappointed. - the chopped Wedge was awesome -the drinks were fun and strong - the eggplant parm plate was good Check it out and DEFINITELY get the BMGT thin crust well done!

I remembered the food being amazing at the place, so we decided to go with our kids. My husband's food was great. Some type of creamy pasta with chicken. Kids loved their pizza. I ordered the lasagna. Omg, they put to much ricotta, I couldn't eat it. Who does that? Thank god my husband loves ricotta, as he took it for his lunch the next day. I'm super disappointed. So if you don't like a lot of ricotta, do not order the lasagna, and I love lasagna, when made right. Our waitress was nice and it was otherwise a fun time. Dessert was also delicious.

I've never been to Gregorio's, but I'm about to write a review for them. Why? Because I've never been there personally but have ordered Door Dash a few times! I will say, I know sometimes I'm kind of slow, but some of the pictures and descriptions are a little confusing. For example... the Lasagna. It's called Lasagna Four Cheese with meat sauce. The description sounds like it's lasagna with a lot of cheese and a marinara sauce as standard, but you pay extra for the meat sauce? The description says $3 for the meat sauce, but the ordering says it's $5 for meat sauce? Now I personally would have liked to have it without the meat sauce at all, but I don't know man.... That picture is looking pretty meaty there, which would be great for some, but not tor what I was looking for, so I skipped it. Then you have the Gnocchi soup. As you can see from the picture, there is an option for bowl vs cup. Great! I'll order a bowl. But why is the bowl red and the cup is white cream? Soooo many questions . But that's ok I ordered the bowl and hoped it was actually the cream on that showed up, and it was. Whew! My daughter ordered the bolognese and my husband got the Shrimp Aglio y Olio. The soup though? This soup..... I can't even stress enough how deeeeeelicious this soup was. It was so tasty and perfect and if I could have bought a gallon size I would have but at $17.50 for a bowl, it would probably cost a small fortune. Everything else was really delicious too according to my family. Maybe one day we will actually go to the restaurant and see how ambiance is, but in the meantime, I swear I wanted to order more soup this morning.

My Friend & I stopped in after dining over at 264 Fresco to have One More Drink each. She had the Kung Fu Girl White Wine I just had a Corona extra with a Lime Wedge The Wait Staff was Great so that helped quite a bit. There was even a LIVE Band for background Music.

Good food. Good service, great portions. We had the chicken parm and it was delicious. The children's portion was pretty big, they had meatball and pasta and the meatball was huge! Out server was nice, knowledgeable and polite. We sat outside, the had heaters so it was perfect. Inside it's kind of small and crowded. Parking sucks on a Saturday moght but well worth trying this place out

Gregorio's was great. It was my first time there. We split appetizers and dishes between the whole table: calamari, pizza, and two pasta dishes. Everything was amazing. The complimentary bread at the beginning was served warm and was extremely soft on the inside. What made the dinner great was our server. She was so friendly and made our dinner that much better.

First, my Moscow Mule arrived in a cocktail glass instead of a chilled copper mug...so wrong! It was also very disappointing, it had bitters in it! Then the bread and veggie antipasto salad arrived which were both really good. It went downhill badly from there. My dinner should be a slam dunk for an Italian restaurant...spaghetti and meatballs. So disappointing...the pasta did not seem to be fresh and the sauce was too watery. The meatball was so dense it was difficult to cut and it lacked any discernible herbs or spices...very bland. My wife ordered the Chicken Limone it came with broccoli that my wife said was overdone and artichokes that see said were a little off. Neither of us finished the meal...and we did not ask for takeout boxes. This was extremely disappointing for us because in the past this was one of our favorites. I don't know if they changed chef's and bartenders, or if they are just cutting corners. We will have to think hard before going back again. There are so many better Italian places in Carlsbad.

If you're looking for a good Italian restaurant I highly recommend this place. It's located upstairs in the little shopping center, the only downside is the small parking lot that's always full. I would also recommend getting a reservation for busier nights! I ordered the supreme individual pizza which ended up being three meals for me. They loaded the pizza up with veggies and meat, definitely did not skimp out on the toppings. My boyfriend and friends all order the tortellini with pesto and it was amazing. We all loved how creamy the pesto was. They also got the mojitos which were light and refreshing. The calamari was a large service and tasted really fresh and crunchy. The prices for the restaurant were definitely on the higher side for me but the quantity and quality matched it.

Move over Vigilucci's, Gregorio's is slaying it in Carlsbad. We were warmly welcomed by Christian, who was extremely knowledgeable about the food and wine menu and made smart recommendations based on our questions. Ordered the house salad with Gorgonzola, chopped; Greg's beesting flatbread; butternut squash ravioli and others. Portions are generous, and the baked Ziti delicious. Food was wonderful and the pre meal bread so soft and tasty. Ambiance isn't glamorous, however, sat out on the clean balcony, perfect evening with a heater, and laughed at the servers T-shirts. Good vibe and kid friendly. Looking forward to going back with the rest of our Italian family and trying the chicken parmigiana.

Excellent food. I would recommend. I had the gnocchi with spicy red sauce. We had a very large group and they handled us very well. Excellent service.

Went here for Mother's Day, excited to try something new in the Village, but unfortunately left very underwhelmed. For an Italian restaurant, you'd expect the pasta to be cooked properly--but mine was undercooked and slightly hard . The overall flavor was bland and forgettable, nothing special. The drinks were decent, but $17 for a basic "Italian cocktail" felt excessive. There's so many good restaurants in a similar price range in the area would recommend

Five stars incredibly well deserved. We had the risotto with halibut and it was amazing. It's not something they have normally on the menu, but we're happy to prepare it for us. The service with Coral was delightful and professional.

Food was good but was expecting maybe some handmade pasta as the dish was $31. The complimentary bread was so good as well.

Excellent meal here after the music turned out to be too loud at Clara's. Food: typical red sauce Italian, big portions. Not anything mind-blowing but definitely tasty. 4 stars Drink: above-average cocktail menu. Got a traditional Mojito (they also offer a version that has both rum and vodka) and it was tasty. 4.5 stars Service: Coral was an exceptional server. Friendly and efficient. Hooray for Coral! 5 stars Patio: since I'm only eating outside I like a nice patio. They have one section that is more full of tables and also has a partially covered overhead. But we had a table that was separate from the others along the walkway away from the restaurant. Excellent distancing from others and quieter too. 5 stars I had not heard of Gregorio's before we were making a scramble away from where we had planned to eat but I'm very glad we found it. Super option in Carlsbad especially if you want to eat outside. Just keep in mind that parking here can be a little hectic on a weekend night even though there are lots of lots, since there are also lots of people coming to eat at this complex.

We just went for wine and live music so we did not eat. But we got plain chicken for our dog and he loved it! Big wine pours. Great and friendly service. The band and location was fantastic!

We have been lucky this restaurant was our second dinner in the San Diego/Carlsbad area and it was also fantastic! Our server was Christian who was super polite, helpful, and very friendly. We ordered: * Chopped garden salad with gorgonzola * Shrimp Spicy Tomato Cream: I would HIGHLY recommend this dish if you like pasta and spicy tomato sauce. It was so very tasty. (My wife and I split the two dishes above and it was plenty of food for us - their portions are very generous). * Kinds spaghetti and meatballs: My son ate the whole dish...they put one meatball which was huge and plenty for a 6 year old. * Sauteed shrimp (off menu): My older son wasn't hungry but wanted shrimp. Our server said they would sautee shrimp, garlic, and butter and his dish was tasty. * The bread is fresh which is awesome to eat before the meal! A note about ambiance - the outside seating is very nice (we didn't sit there but looked nice). We sat inside which was not as nice but perfect if you don't want to wait for the tables outside. The added benefit is that this restaurant has clean restrooms in the restaurants (it is part of a larger shopping structure so some of the stores have shared restaurants but not this restaurant!). I would highly recommend this local spot. Our bill was $119.66

Our fav Place! Best service and fun experience-great menu and bring your family! We like to sit at the bar with the attentive service and have appetizers! But you can also order full meals, pizzas, etc. The ambiance is always lit up and fun with heaters in the patio as well. It's our "go-to" in Carlsbad!

We came into the relatively empty restaurant with reservations and were given the worst two person table in the restaurant while couples with no reservations got nice 4 person tables. The waitress was nice and service was adequate. The fried calamari was the frozen ring type and was passable but super salty. ($20) The Halibut(catch of the day) was $40 and small square cut pieces that was served on a small skewer. The sausage Cacciatore was pizza sausage thin slices with small shell pasta in a overly thick red sauce(too much tomato paste) and was just plain bad. We skipped desert naturally. Definitely a hard pass on a return.

One of our most favorite Italian places overall, and a go to when we're in Carlsbad! I don't think we've ever had anything that was bad. Maybe a couple times we were a little disappointed, but overall.... I can just say .... YUMMMM! I highly recommend the eggplant parm! It is divine! Meatballs are delish. I've heard the sausage & peppers are also very good (I don't like onions, so I'm not prone to ordering this). The bread.... I'm wishing I had some right now... Excellent! Christian was our server this last time and was personable and put up with my "over sharing" and wanting to chat. lol The "hostess" that has been there the past couple times, seems not to be very happy at all to be there. That's a shame. Bottom line - highly recommended! Their food is delicious!

Food was great. Service was sub-par. Ambiance was upscale but casual & kid-friendly. The kiddos had their own kid friendly menu where Gregorio's cooked their own version of "chicken tenders". Lightly breaded and moist chicken strips sided with in-house potato chips. The Scallop Linguini was definitely full of flavor. Huge servings of scallops with the linguini. We were seated immediately upon arrival. Service had to dock a star as it took some time for our orders to be placed and followed-up on. Overall was a marginal 3.5.

I came here with family and we had a really nice time! The service was amazing. Everyone was so attentive and accommodating. The food was really fresh and I love that they have a full bar! The Village has a decent amount of parking available. It was such an enjoyable time, I'd definitely come back!

Food was delicious! Service was kind of odd in the beginning. It was cold out but we couldn't get a working heater and it took about 20 minutes before someone actually came to fix it. Our server brought us bread but we had 5 people and only 4 pieces of bread so we immediately asked for more. We never got a water refill even though we had empty glasses. I had the Chianti to pair with the baked ziti, which was great. And their happy hour has some great deals. Overall I will be back because the food saved the whole experience, but I hope my service is a little better next time.

I had the nicest lunch yesterday at Gregorio's with my daughter at 2 PM. I haven't been there for many years and was afraid that somehow it might've changed but it hasn't. It is one of my favorite places to go when I want good Italian food. Rosemary, chicken chop salad was out of this world as well as the chicken Parmesan pizza I'm craving it right now so bad I want to go back.

We had dinner for my girls for their birthday! We made reservations and Brandee was our waitress. She was so friendly and accommodating. From start to finish we had an amazing time. The food was so good from appetizers to salads and egg plant, lasagna and their homemade pasta. She surprised us we an amazing desert for my girls and everyone sang including Brandee and other servers. We will definitely be back. Everyone is still talking about how much fun we had! Thank you Gregorios and Brandee!

As a longtime visitor I'm very disappointed with my recent visit. While the food and service were good. It was the receipt that I found to be an insult. As usual I tipped 20% after sales tax and I receive a receipt suggesting I didn't tip enough. I don't know if I will be returning but if I do it won't be with a 20% tip.

This is my new favorite restaurant in Carlsbad! The food was delicious!!! Definitely recommend the sangria, spinach and artichoke dip and chicken limone. We will definitely become regulars here now

My favorite food is Mexican or Italian..... and there are plenty of each here in Carlsbad..... Our first time at Gregorio's.... I gave three stars because the restaurant itself is very clean....tabletops are really pretty ....All The employees are very friendly and helpful....and they have the cutest tee shirts.... I made our reservations thru Yelp, it's very easy and Yelp will also give you a reminder the day of..... Claire was our server, she was very attentive and did a great job!!! We decided to try a couple of different things, my husband ordered an individual pizza.... (It was Big enough for 2) ‍ he said it was good... but not great..... I ordered a bowl of pasta fagioli and a side meatball... they definitely don't skimp on their portions but I believe they need lots more seasoning.....my soup was mostly pasta, carrots & beans.... I added my meatball and that helped but we were very disappointed.....

Love this place. Pasta is always so fresh and atmosphere is perfect. Had a rough week and ordered a meal to go and to my surprise my rewards and my birthday reward covered my meal completely and I walked out of there for free. What a surprise and a perfect meal

Tomato soup paired with the mozzarella garlic bread + fresh catch on piccata style is the way to go!! Parking can be tough, so give yourself some time.

One of the greatest joys in my life has been walking around in a city far from home--be it Rome or Paris or Helsinki or Marrakech or Adelaide or Singapore--and finding an ordinary-looking place to eat that is family-owned and that serves wonderful food. They are out there. So many restaurants in California these days are corporate things. Even restaurants that I like a lot can have 8 or 12 or 20 locations and probably a CEO. Gregorio's is the kind of place that I would be delighted to stumble across in Rome or Naples or Florence. It's not a chain. It is operated by its owners. It serves food that is made the way the owners want to make it, and not the way the Food section of big newspapers say it should be made. I love it. My wife believes that their spaghetti with meatballs is the best restaurant version she has ever eaten. I am partial to the Chicken Piccata and their pizza (especially the pear/gorgonzola pizza and the house ("Gregorio's") pizza. I don't love everything they serve--I haven't eaten everything they serve--but I love what I love and it's enough to bring me back. Oh, also I LOVE the tomato soup. It's probably enough all by itself to bring me back. It's on the 2nd floor above the UPS Store. There is a wide stairway right next to it, and a dingy old elevator over across from the back of Coyote, on the side towards I-5.

Got a pizza to go a couple of weeks ago. Called it in ahead of time and it was ready by the time I got there. The pizza was pear and prosciutto and it was amazing. Overall, I would go back in a heartbeat. The pizza was on the thinner side which is perfect for me.

Customer service is always great and the food is absolutely delicious!! Love coming here when in Carlsbad!

I posted a great review for the eggplant parmesan before as we have been a long time customer for this dish, and we used to drive 30 minutes to get there, but the experience last October, 2024, was not good. The portion got smaller, and the tomato sauce didn't taste the same at all. My husband said, he almost couldn't eat it. Did this restaurant change recently??

I'm so disappointed. I have had wonderful pasta meals here before. My fiend suggested the pizza so I took my date there. We ordered the pizza. Overpriced and under delivered. I was so embarrassed and I even spoke to my bartender about this. He dismissed me right away. I felt really unheard and I felt like they really didn't care. I'm sorry Greg. Cause I really always liked your past dishes. We are never going there again. Tracy and Christian.

Very mixed. Cold non-italian ambiance, but balanced with a catering and friendly staff. Fresh bread and attempts at making a good sauce but with zero flavor. Their kid's pizza had zero flavor but looked great, and their pastas are all at least around $30 or more for pasta dishes that had zero authenticity and zero flavor. As an Italian I can't imagine charging that much unless it's important from Tuscany, Emilia Romana, or Sicily. And did I mention zero flavor. The chicken parm sandwich was decent but with a very thin slice of chicken. I suppose the minimum wage in California is driving restaurants to charge more and provide less, but that shouldn't affect spices for sauces so no excuse for that. Won't go again. But try to find something a little more lively and higher quality

Made a reservation for eight on Father's Day kind of last-minute and they took us without a problem. Our table was ready when we arrived. The food was delicious. The service was great. We really enjoyed our time as a family at Gregorio's. Definitely will be back.

Meeting friends from Carlsbad for a casual dinner. Party of 10. And we would only dine outdoors (COVID cautious). Gregorio's would reserve a table on the patio for us until 5:30. Not a problem, we could make that work. Besides, that got us there for Happy Hour. Even better! Pamula, our server, was at the table right away to get our drink orders. She then brought fresh bread - more than enough for our large party. She provided spectacular service throughout the meal despite having to juggle at least one other large party on the patio. We started the meal with spinach and artichoke dip appetizer on the HH menu ($12). It came with sliced cucumber and carrots on the side. But I liked it better with their bread. I also got a draft IPA beer on the HH menu ($6). For our main course, we shared a large pizza with mushroom, sausage, and extra cheese ($28). Wow, was that good pizza! Excellent food, excellent service, and excellent ambiance. We will definitely return the next time we are in Carlsbad.

Very nice location, nice ambiance. Service was normal. Ordered pizza and was beyond disbelief that they sold me the pizza I received. Did not look appetizing, some vegetables were not even properly cut, lacked flavor could definitely tell its frozen as it tasted watery, bad dough, not salted just in general possibly the worst pizza I have had in Southern California. Costco Pizza definitely taste better

Good portions. Good food. Great service. Sauces are great. We tried Alfredo and Lasagna. Pizza dough is really good.
