"Marisa Furno opened this Argentine-style pizza and empanada shop in 2014, taking over for the former owner, named Guido, and installing her roasted onion and pepperoni-topped pizzas made in the style she grew up with in Buenos Aires. These pizza hybrids, created by Italian-born immigrants in the South American country and proliferated now from Furno, are some of the best baked pies in the Inland Empire. Fried empanadas with chimichurri and milanesa sandwiches are excellent appetizers to the pizzas." - Sean Vukan
"Guido's in Rancho Cucamonga was originally an Italian deli until the business switched to Argentinian ownership, and then the fugazettas showed up on the menu. These pillowy, thick-crust pies get covered in muzza, mozzarella's saltier South American cousin that bubbles beautifully in a hot pizza oven. We're fans of the house special topped with green olives for pops of salt, roasted bell peppers, and sweet grilled onions that turn burnt and smoky around the edges. And like all great Italian delis, there are subs to go, including a milanesa sandwich with breaded steak, sliced provolone, and a kick from yellow mustard." - sylvio martins
"Guido’s is a family-run deli and pizzeria in the heart of the Inland Empire that, needless to say, understands the assignment. Once home to an Italian deli, this now Argentinian-Italian spot makes an excellent milanesa sub with warm, breaded steak and a classic choripan sandwich with spicy Argentinian chorizo drenched in vinegary chimichurri. Pizza also happens to be a pretty big deal in Buenos Aires, and this place specializes in regional pies with toppings like smoked bell peppers, green olives, sliced onions, and Argentinian “muzza” that’s a bit saltier than its Italian counterpart. Make sure to try the fugazzeta with its deep-dish-like crust, grilled onions, and large amounts of muzza both on top and sandwiched inside too." - Sylvio Martins
"This strip mall find in the Inland Empire is known for a variety of Argentinian specialities, including bubbly fried empanadas available by the plate. The space is small, so expect to dine either on the sidewalk or at home, but that’s okay; they seem to have packed all the energy and flavor from the small takeaway space into every empanada bite." - Sylvio Martins
A no‑frills, family‑run deli and market where Argentinian empanadas meet Italian‑American classics. Praised by local diners for handmade fillings and pantry goods, and verified by current hours, it’s a flavor bridge to the diaspora communities that shaped the IE.
