The Place

My daughter and her mother brought me here for Father's Day dinner. It is a great place, small, so make sure to make reservations ahead of time. Though it did take a while to get seated and get drinks, I'd say overall a great recommendation for Italian food. My daughter had the Cheese Ravioli e pomadoro, can't go wrong with Ravioli with delectable, her mother had the Braised Beef in Polenta that was to die for as that beef was so tender and it paired very well with the polenta, and I had the Wild Mushroom Black Truffle Risotto that was so amazingly delicious, I left that plate trembling 😁

We stopped by before this place opened and were intrigued, so we made a point to come back once it did. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the start. There are no servers—you order and pay through a link online, which made it feel more like a diner or fast-casual spot rather than a restaurant. Yet, the prices don’t reflect that at all. We were served on paper plates with plastic cups, which felt cheap considering how much they’re charging. Another letdown: they don’t serve ranch, only blue cheese, which was unexpected and honestly strange given how common ranch is as a dressing option.

Food was decent.. what you would expect for italian food. I found our server pretty rude though and I would dread him coming to our table. Each time he came, he said something snarky. Not sure if it was supposed to be as a joke? Either way, didn't enjoy that experience. He had a mustache (pretty cool looking one)

Had a wonderful dinner at The Place. You definitely need reservations if you plan on going on a Friday or Saturday evening. The place was packed. They had a gentleman playing music and singing Italian songs. And the food and service was excellent. I highly recommend the polenta fries and Mikey’s Big Balls are good too.

The Place in Roseville is hands down one of my favorite spots to eat! The vibe is cozy yet trendy, perfect for date night or dinner with friends. The service is always friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Now let’s talk food—absolutely incredible. The pasta is fresh and flavorful, the pizzas are perfectly wood-fired, and the wine selection is top-notch. You can tell they put thought and heart into every dish. If you haven’t been yet, do yourself a favor and go. You’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.

The Real Deal is The Place, top to bottom a solid Italian restaurant. The atmosphere was a true Italian setting with an inside and outside feel all inside of a one indoor space. The service was pretty good, keeping drinks full slowed towards the end of meal service. Now onto the main event, The Food, started with the Brushette that was well-rounded with fresh mozzarella cheese only needed a bit more of the tomato blend on top 8 out 10. I had a Chicken Marsala with homemade noddles which was amazing 9 out 10 only reason it wasn’t a 10/10 was I wish for a bit more of the amazing flavoring/zest on the chicken. Another dished sampled was Clams e Linguine with prawns 10/10 best clams linguine I have ever tasted, amazing flavor and fresh ingredients. Each meal served with delicious bread and oils. Must try!!!

Service was great waitress was very polite and attentive. We had a party of 10 and were served fairly quickly. Chicken was wonderful ,tender and juicy and the Lasagna was freshly made and delicious. The only negative thing I can say is about the portion size. I feel the portions were fairly small for the price. (mid priced) Chicken Marsala $31.00 . Parking wasn't to bad and because we had a reservation , there was no wait time being seated. Cocktails are a little on the pricey side but tasty so all around 👍

The place used to be fine Italian dining. And then when you take Italians there and they don't have an espresso machine, and their cannolis didn't wow them, then how good of a place can it be? Worth going, just leave tradition at home.

The Place is a small Italian restaurant in old town Roseville with about 25 tables. Several of their dishes are made daily with homemade pasta in house. We had a Caesar salad, 10 layer lasagne and a customized green monsta pizza. Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious. The waitress was attentive and helpful. I can't wait to go back! Great job chef and team. The only suggestion would be to have a better wine selection. The Chianti was mediocre/okay and the red Italian blend was very sweet. There is open bar seating. If you prefer to sit at a table, be sure to have a reservation or you may miss out on some fabulous food.

I love this place. Authentic Italian at its finest. I would say some of the best in the area along with accounting for a broad menu as well. The vibe is truly wonderful. Laid back, casual, old style atmosphere and really on target with really good food and service. It's also a place where you can be a little loud and raucous. We had seven people and it was a blast! Very fun. We were off to the side so not to disturb anyone, plus the bar activity nearby was noisy anyway. I really had a hard time deciding as so many items on the menu looked good. My final choice was Papa's Rice Pot. A rice dish is a bit odd in an Italian restaurant, other than risotto, and this dish resembled a light Jambalaya. Overall I'd say it was competent, fresh, and tasty but ultimately I would have preferred a pasta dish. For the table we had two bottles of Barbera wine which came more in a decanter type bottle. The absolute highlight for me was the cannoli for dessert. Oh my gosh, it was beyond delicious! Not too sweet the ricotta and ingredients were so well put together, plus the shell was just right in texture and consistency. The service was so friendly and professional. We enjoyed what our server added to the experience. I will definitely go back and try a variety of different things, but not by-pass the cannoli.

Wow.... The Place did not disappoint!! Was truly hyped up prior to going after having take out and hearing many great things. Picked out a Friday evening to go so we could get the lasagna (only serves on Fri and Sat, go early... limited pans made). Unbelievable light pasta layered with fresh made ricotta and served with their meaty bolognese sauce, was incredible!!! Gnocchi, cheesey garlic bread, and more.... All phenomenal!!! Specialty cocktail list is deep and a great wine list by the glass or bottle. Loved the location in Central Roseville, older buildings with great character. Dining room was split up into two areas so the noise level was definitely better than most places. The team of servers, cooks, and hosts all worked well together and provided a top notch experience!!!

I highly recommend the minestrone soup and bolognese. I also love their short rib. Service is fast and friendly. It can be crowded and loud in here since it is a popular spot. Make a reservation it's worth it!

This has been one of our favorite places to hang out during "Roseville Tuesday Night Car Show." The Place is a quaint eatery on Vernon Street. I love Mikey's Big Balls, it's their signature meatballs covered in sauce topped with cheese, baked and served piping HOT! We usually order that alongside the Original Grammy's salad. You can just order these two items and be content. The fresh house made pasta and the sauce that's been passed down through the family is delicious. You also can't go wrong with any of their pizzas too! FYI-if you're a fan of reality TV, Tamra from Real Housewives of Orange County dined here! (-;

Our friends took us here a couple of weeks ago. My friend's husband is from the East Coast and huge Red Sox fan, so he wanted to support this family-owned business from Boston. I'm ready to go back for more soft, delicious foccacia dipped in olive oil and basalmic vinger and tasty meatballs named Everybody Love's Mikey's Big Balls lol. We sure did! My friend and I shared the Caesar Salad. I paused and cursed after my first bite, then put my fork down to praise this simple and superb salad. That home made dressing was the best. We also shared the Woodsman Pizza with mushrooms, sausage, and pepperoni in a cream sauce. It was great, but then my husband shared a bite of his Wicked Diavolo pizza. That was the winner with hot honey, chorizo, mortadella and hot peppers. The honey took it over the top. It wasn't too spicy and I didn't need my Pepto chewables! My son loved his Boscaiola with cream sauce, mushrooms, and the same tasty sausage that was in our pizza. Our table also shared two of their pistachio and chocolate cannolis for dessert. The shells were pretty hard but the filling and flavors were good. I prefer a delicate crunch and my friend preferred her grandma's. I'll still give this place 5 stars because of the other outstanding dishes, our friendly, down-to-earth server, Lene, and the casual, cozy ambiance. The music and bathrooms were cute too!

Old Roseville is filled with cute shops, and some cool restaurants. We hadn't tried The Place yet, and decided to grab some food to go. We had perused the menu before walking in, and decided to order some sandwiches and dessert. We found out that they no longer offer sandwiches! Even the wait staff was bummed that sandwiches aren't on the menu! We opted for two calzones to go. I opted out of ordering dessert, because it's crazy to pay $12.00 for one small cannoli. The meatball calzone and the sweet pig were boxed up for us, with added marinara sauce and the fig jam on the side. What's lacking- intense meat flavors and sauce. We found both calzones needed more sauce cooked into the mixture. Both calzones needed a lot more meat, especially for the price point. I'll also add that more cheese would have helped as well. What's tasty- the dough is house made. It's fluffy, and baked perfectly. I'd kick it up a notch, and add garlic or some tasty seasoning to the dough. It would help! The staff is really kind, helpful, and they made me feel welcomed. The Place is definitely "neighborhood ", which makes it endearing. The price point is pretty high for what's being served ($60.00 for the two calzones).

Found this place on Yelp, made reservations for Sunday evening and had no issue finding parking so I guess we were lucky! I wish we had come earlier to walk around "old" downtown Roseville beforehand - what a cute area with all the lights and businesses! Service 5* Our server was INCREDIBLE! He rolled with my questions, offered suggestions, hooked us up with bread though the focaccia had run out, and in general, treated us like regulars. I could see how busy he was (bartending as well) but he never made us feel rushed. He was GREAT! Ambiance 5* Nothing fancy, definitely warm and cozy. We were greeted quickly and shown to our table which was off to the side and gave us a great view of everything going on. The place was full of families dining together, a table of teen girls celebrating their friend's 14th birthday, a very large office party, a solo diner at the table behind, and couples just like us. Great place for everyone to come for any occasion. I didn't find the place to be loud but I also wasn't there when any live music was happening. Food 3* Dang it. Why can't the food have been 5* too? The focaccia had run out so our server gave us some contraband bread...but... it was pretty dense and had a hard time soaking up the delicious olive oil/vinegar. The minestrone soup was tasty enough. I went for my server's suggestion of the Sweet Pig pizza: House-made sausage, pancetta, prosciutto, pineapple fig jam, provolone, mozzarella. I get the play on "hawaiian" with the pineapple jam but all I could taste was fig. Nothing wrong with that but then I'm almost looking for prosciutto or ricotta to go with it. Descriptions have an effect! Crust was thin (which I like) but overdone so it made the crust crunchy to the bite (which I don't like since it's not a cracker.) The meats were delicious and the provolone not overwhelming. Hubby wasn't wowed by his clam linguine because riddled throughout were strips of onion, which he doesn't like. It's not typical and not on the menu so it kind of ruined it for him. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the clams fresh so that was all positive. I think we'd go back to give it a second try but we don't live in the area.

The Place is a hidden gem in downtown Roseville. Make reservations! They have a great cocktail menu. The wine list is minimal. The chicken marsala had that perfect balance of savory and sweet with perfectly thin tender chicken. The frutti de mare was also cooked to perfection served in marinara.

Wow...ok- "The Place" is not the place for me. Located in downtown Roseville, very limited parking, "The Place" is squeezed between businesses with very limited seating. It's best to call ahead and make a reservation if you are coming here, or you'll be stuck at an empty restaurant at the bar top with an unpleasant bartender, like me. Thankfully, I didn't need a table. Tonight as I walked in to an almost empty restaurant, I was told they were not taking to go orders because the kitchen was short staffed (EMPTY RESTAURANT!). So I asked if I could sit at the bar top since none of the EMPTY tables were available, and order food then box it up myself. Yup. At the bar top, there are maybe about 8 spots available to sit. The kitchen staff was polite and let me know he didn't mind making my food to go. I thanked him and mentioned it was my first time here. As the bartender Randy, was taking my order, I had questions since it was my first time. After ordering two items for my client (I wanted those to start cooking and if i didn't find anything, then I wasn't going to eat) , Robert (the name on my receipt) suddenly, right in the middle of taking my order, rushing me through, me still having questions, he tells the kitchen to stop making my order because I didn't know what I wanted. I told him to keep those cooking, but he was in such a rush, he was not willing to listen to me. Then, walking away from the kitchen, he says "F*CK" out of frustration and tells me he has hot food to get out and tables he needs to help. Honestly it took everything I had not to walk out, especially, because this is where my client wanted to order food. After he was done delivering his food and whatever else he needed to do, he sarcastically stood in front of me, reminding me how he had other customers that needed him, and about hot food, and so on. I understand that hot food needs to get out right away, but aren't I a customer, too? And surly, there was a much better way to talk to me than how he did. I was starting to shut down. I also had to change my order because they no longer made items that they had on their online menu. After fixing my order, (they no longer made Dad's carbonara) then reordering, I decided not to order my meal from here. I sat there for about 45 minutes. Watching TV. I was up close and had a really good view of the kitchen staff working hard. Then, while waiting on my order, Randy asked the kitchen where my order was, and they told him it had still been on hold because he never told them to continue making it (that's because I decided not to eat her). So he had to print up my ticket and hand it to the kitchen. I received my full order almost 10 another minutes later. When I paid, Randy was not willing to get me change. I honestly didn't feel like he deserved a tip. He treated me like I was wasting his time from the moment I sat down. Sorry, but you are getting paid to do this job, minus the a$$hole attitude. He walked up and looked at the cash I left on the tickets, then walked off. I had to ask the waitress that happened to be by the register to make change. The food: Tagliatelle Bolognese No Bueno. The noodles were barely warm and chewy, maybe not cooked all the way, not soft. Not even al dente. The meatballs were hot, but not much flavor, too much bread crumbs. The sauce was ok. Not worth the money paid for it. No where close ($26+$6 for 2 meatballs +$6 more for 2 more meatballs). Chicken Parmigiana The hand-breaded chicken didn't even taste like like chicken! Which make me think that this food is not fresh. The pasta felt better in this dish than in the Tagliatelle Bolognese. My clients exact words... "what a joke. $68.42 down the drain." The best part of dinner was the complimentary bread and olive oil (and maybe getting away from the rude bartender). That had good flavor. The bread was soft. I honestly think if there had been a more pleasant service, I may want to give "The Place" another chance...

Came for a date night dinner before catching a show at Goldfields. Heard so many great things about this place and it didn't disappoint! The food was so great!

We came in for our anniversary after hearing wonderful things. Upon entering I was ready to leave. This is definitely a small place that tried to pack as many tables in without considering flow of people, waiting area, live music location.. everything just seemed out of sorts. We were sat at the first table by the front door and windows. There was a water cup stain on the paper table cover before we even sat. It was just left there. The music was far too loud for dinner. The server was inattentive and gave attitude, when we asked about the drink menu. Nothing impressive when it comes to cocktails. We were with our 2 children and crayons were brought to the neighboring table, but not ours.. we took theirs when they left. The place was miserably hot, and when we asked about the heat, they said it was due to an old building and the ac was indeed on. Being in the front of the restaurant by the large window with the heat blasting on the velvet window covers didn't help but we were never offered a different table, even though there were openings and we were constantly fanning ourselves. The food was OK in my opinion, I've had much better for less. My husband loved the lasagna, I had the pesto pasta with added chicken. Kids had pasta, my son did love the meatball he ordered. Overall the food was OK, but the experience with the heat and mediocre service does not make me want to return nor recommend this place to anyone. Would not eat there again.

Went there on Friday night with my friend. I called earlier to make reservations for two. I showed up a bit early and the place was already full. I waited for couple of minutes and then I was seated. Our server Teresa was amazing! It was my first time there and the place looked cozy and cute! We were served with the complimentary bread and oil/balsamic. For starters we got the Garlic bread and the garlic parmesan polenta. They were good but very salty! We also got the Bruschetta which was divine! For the Entree we got the Tagliatelle Bolognese (I had chicken on it instead of the meatballs) and the Maccheroni e formaggio: they were delicious! There was a singer playing and the vibe was beautiful! The Place is lovely and loud in a good way!

My go to place for pasta in the Roseville area. The staff here always makes me feel welcome. As soon as I walk in, they give me a hug and pour me a glass of red. Randy makes the most amazing drinks! Anything you order tastes like it's makes with love and so fresh! Please do yourself a favor and come in and let them know Jess sent you!

I used to really enjoy The Place, until today. My family brought me today for a father's day for dinner, which was ruined by the little guy with the silly mustache. We had a reservation for 5 and they sit us at a table for 4, placing my son on the end, not a huge deal. Then mr. mustache grabs the uncomfortable host chair from the front for my son to sit in. We swap the chair for a cushioned chair at an empty table and awaited our server. Well mr mustache did not like this and began to pull the chair as my son was sitting in it, stating its for the empty table. This was completely unacceptable and was a sign to how our experience would be, so we left. This is how you treat return customers, that have been coming here since your opening? Pathetic and disappointing, thanks for ruining my father's day dinner, will not be coming back and will never recommend this place to anyone.

The Place is always busy so making a reservation would be highly recommended! It's been a while since my last visit and I had forgotten how loud the place can be. The volume of the live entertainment seemed to have heightened. The food however made up for the boisterous ambiance. Everything we had was very good! The complimentary bread and dip (so flavorful and good), bruschetta was fresh and refreshing, our entrees... the clams e linguine and dad's carbonara were delicious. We topped off dinner with the tiramisu. It was unique with three whoopie pie layers soaked in coffee sauce. I've always enjoyed the amaretto sour at the place. Funny how hubby ordered a Prosecco and they gave him a mini bottle of La Marca. Thought that was a bit unusual.

So disappointing. Not real Italian at all. The fettuccine was in little pieces he told me "it's because its home made it breaks" NO I am Italian I make it all the time and if fresh you can make LONG strands. $23 for about a cup and 1/2 of broken pasta. Nope not good, not fresh and not real Italian. To top it off the bread side came with nice olive oil and stale bread. The noise level is also really bad

We went as a party of 12 & the service & food were both superb. The bread & drink refills kept coming. I highly recommend a reservation.

If this reviewed was based just on food on a plate, easy 5 stars, no hesitation. But, because they advertise as a "dining experience", let me tell you about OUR barely 3 star experience. (Basically if you take anything away from this review - do not make reservations here. But if you do, be prepared to wait an hour for your reservation. I do mean this with all seriousness. You will wait an hour- and the entire restaurant will stare at you- until you are seated or give up and leave.) On Saturday night it was my friends birthday and a week in advanced. She made a reservation for 7:00 PM. Earlier that day she called to confirm at 1 o'clock that her table would be ready for a party of 7. She did everything right, put down the $10 per person reservation deposit, confirmed twice and we got there at 7:02 PM. Seems fine? Just wait it gets worse. I think it's important to know that this is a very small restaurant- if I stood in the middle of the room I can easily see the kitchen, the front door, all the tables and the bar from exactly where I stand. Our party of seven was invited to either wait outside in the cold weather (that was a no) or wait at the very busy bar with limited seating, while we waited for our table. Now I understand bartenders are busy and I can only imagine the stress and anxiety at this bartender felt as he was the only person behind the bar on truly a busy Saturday night. However - in all my times of standing at bars, I have never encountered a more unpleasant, unwelcoming, and rude bartender. I understand that as a group of young women who are excited to be there, that we may come off as "immature, and young" but the bartender treated us so negatively, and with such crassness and unwelcoming behavior, that we opted just to stand outside in the cold. Anytime we try to go in and check on the status or progress of our reservation. We were met with a simple "I can't give you or release that information." Like - what do you mean you can't? What an odd thing to say. I would understand that response if I was asking for Social Security number or for the password to someone's bank..... but the amount of attitude I got from asking "when is our paid reservation going to be ready?" Oh my Our party ended up waiting until 8:15 (hour and 15 minutes) to even be notified that our table was "being prepared". We were informed that there was a party of four ahead of us. However, we did get "lucky" because this party of four gave up and probably were already enjoying food elsewhere. (Keep in mind this place closes at 9pm) Here comes the part of the review about how we found a small solution to our terrible night so far. We had no reservations, accommodations, or plants for anywhere else that could possibly take our large party, and we were determined to stay and make sure that our friends deposit would not go to waste. The deposit ended up being put towards the bill and my friends (solo birthday meal) got compensated, don't worry the bill was still over $100 - I will say that Teresa, the waitress was the only shining star of the story and apologized for the extreme and ridiculous amount of wait time. They gave my friend a small birthday cookie - and the group two free appetizers, which split evenly between a group of 7- was crumbs ... The food is good. There is no doubt about that, and if you only went for the food, it would be fine. If you try to make a reservation, please keep in mind that they're fine print does not guarantee that you get sat down at the time of your reservation, and they reserve the right to make you wait an hour for a timeslot that you already put money down for. Is this a fantastic, well-run business that handles busy nights well? As a customer I would say not. Is this the only Italian restaurant in Roseville? No - my suggestion just go somewhere else.

Ambiance, service, food was excellent. only thing I would say is have the music volume down a little so customers could enjoy the evening visiting with each other. Otherwise we all enjoyed the evening.

This place took us straight back to Italy! I have been wanting to visit for so long and now that I have- my only regret is not going sooner! When you walk in you're greeted with authentic Italy restaurant decor. The food is the real deal, handmade pastas and homemade focaccia are made daily. The service was great, all the staff were friendly and inviting and constantly filled our waters. I had to try the Tagliatelle Bolognese, the verdict? It was hard not to wipe the plate clean. My friend ordered the Chicken Marsala and it was extremely tender and flavorful. We ordered the lemon rocket salad to share and it was yummy but I want to try another salad next time! Overall, I can't wait to bring my husband and more friends back.

This is my new favorite place to get Italian food!! It's location in Old Town Roseville. My husband and I went here for our anniversary dinner and we were quite impressed. We got a quiet table in the middle of the room and we got bread and dipping sauce first before we ordered our meals. The bread was super soft and baked and the dipping balsamic sauce was perfectly delicious. We got a salad to share; so good oh my goodness and I got penne pasta with Parmesan sauce (which was one of their vegetarian meals. My husband got the chicken Parmesan and we both loved our meals. So delicious! For dessert, we got a lemon cake with frosting; yummy! We instantly knew we wanted to come back here. So good and highly recommend too!!

I feel like we come here at least once a year to celebrate my grandma's birthday . This year she turned 93 and of course she wanted to come back to The Place . We all got excited we love the food here . We came on a Friday night once we arrived, it was not as busy or crowded a little later through the night it did get busy. It looked like everybody had reservations or either some people sat at the bar area . The Place is a small Italian restaurant in the heart of down town Roseville it's super cute inside it feel like it says mom and pops real Italian restaurant. All the food here is great . My favorite is the lasagna which they only make on Fridays and Saturdays but once it's gone, it's gone so you better get there early and order it before it's gone. This lasagna has 10 thin layers of greatness in your mouth. Sooo good !!! My kids love to order the Italian sodas. They do offer kids dishes you just have to ask, which is a kid spaghetti or a kids small pizza, which is really good portions for kids by the way. One thing I did not like the complementary bread with the oil comes as soon as they remove your menus from your table. I wish we would've got the bread as soon as we sat down. We did get our appetizers and we were still looking at the menu for our main entree and still not bread I asked and she said they have to remove the menus completely from the table to receive the bread. They food is excellent and the service is great also just be ready to wait a while for your food or drinks but it's definitely worth it ..The food is delicious. They offer wine and specialty cocktails as well. My favorites are the Clover club, French 75 and the Espresso Martini. Some not all of the drinks are a little bit on the smaller side for the price range of $16 or so. Wish they were a little bit bigger for that price but they are really good. At the end of the night they gave my grandma a complementary birthday dessert that was a very nice touch . We all ended up ordering dessert my kids loved the Zeppole Originale' and I loved the Tiramisu delicious.. One thing my grandma and all of us love the the man of the hour the live music ! He made my grandma feel special all night he would announce that its her birthday throughout the evening . He even sang happy birthday to her and took a picture with her. He is the sweetest!! He definitely made our night and my grandma's birthday super special we thank you for that ! Overall this is a must try restaurant. I highly recommend trying it out. The food is delicious. You get the small Italian restaurant feel.

Had the Caesar salad which I usually race about but the chicken tasted fake. Just like rubber! OMG couldn't even eat it disgusting! Didn't co Plain but will not ever order the chicken from here again. So much for my beloved Chicken Caesar salad.

stopped at this spot for lunch, decided to get the Garlic Cheesy Bread and the Fettuccine Alfredo! The pasta was creamy and delicious, it was hard to choose between the Fettuccine Alfredo and the Pesto Alla Penne! It wasn't the best Fettuccine Alfredo in my opinion. The Cheesy Garlic Bread was alright, not my favorite so I probably wouldn't get it again. It was too hard and "crispy" for my liking. Service here was okay, the server just tried to get us in n out from what it seemed. I honestly think there is just better Italian food in the area and this would not be a spot I visit again.

I have dined here many times, always great until the last visit! The server was so rude, inappropriate and told my guest and I he hated his job and wanted to quit! Well I hope he did to spare any other guests from his abusive behavior. Yes, it's Randy! After reading many comments on yelp, why is this guy still employed at this establishment? I guess they don't care how he treats people. Truly sad. I left a message for the manager and or the owners who were both present in the restaurant that evening. No one responded. Very disappointing!

Disclaimer: In February of 2024, As a birthday surprise my father took me to The Place located in the Historic Vernon Street District in Roseville, California. Please excuse the delayed review. The Place is the place for authentic Italian food in Roseville. For my birthday meal I had the veal accompanied by a salad. To drink I had a sparkling Italian soda and plenty of water. As for a dessert I had gelato with decaf americano. Everything appeared fresh and tasted quite delightful. This establishment is definitely a family, date, and /or friends night establishment with tables placed in about every corner. Highly recommend that you make a reservations. It appears there is a bar area however have been told by locals in Roseville the bar is used mostly during the week and The Place is more used for open table seating. While the dress code is casual for the restaurant. However I enjoy dressing up for an establishment such as The Place. Service was superb. The waitress ensured every dish came out on time and that our drinks especially the water received a refill upon request. Overall If you have a special occasion, a date night, friends evening, ect. The Place is the place. Look forward to the next to visit either with friends and/or family. However I am curious to further explore the use of the small bar area as a solo individual at The Place. Yet I have taken note The Place also owns Daniello and heard that caters to groups to individuals such as the solo reviewer. As the solo review I would like to explore both options.

Having lived by this place for a couple of years, walked by it a few dozen times and driven by it a few hundred, if not thousands of times, I finally went in for it. The place is pretty small with not a whole ton of space. But, has this family, cozy, warm in your stomach feel to it. The service is amazing! Fast, attentive, patient and very helpful. The food is by far some of the best Italian I've had in a long, long time. Everything was fresh, hot out of the oven, fulfilling and very satisfying. With a lot of places having become so commercialized, it is refreshing to find a spot where you feel welcomed, looking forward to and planning out your next visit or two... if you haven't been here, you're missing out for sure and definitely need to prioritize yourself, if you crave something delicious and heartwarming. Until next time!

The food was absolutely delicious... The Margherita pizza was perfect and the linguine and clams was great flavor pasta cooked perfectly Al dente and martini that was delicious next time will try the gelato sandwich

My husband read the reviews online. And we took the family her to try it out. The wait was not bad only 1/2 hour. It is small inside, and sit pretty close to other customers. The lighting is nice. The bread and dipping sauce were amazing ! Nice sized portions. We ordered the lasagna, chicken Marsala, chicken fettuccine Alfredo. All delicious Even though very busy the service was still impeccable! Highly recommend!

We went here to celebrate a birthday and "The Place" was a hit with all! It was a busy night but the staff were attentive, the food and drinks came out in the perfect cadence for a nice relaxing meal together and everything was a winner! Everything was great but the Braised Short Rib was so tender and rich, it was the favorite. We will definitely be back!

I haven't been to this Italian restaurant, but called to order their ciappino, if it was still being served this evening. I spoke with two separate people and neither one even knew what it was. I spelled it for them in case I pronounced it wrong (chee-a-PEE-no) but they had no idea what I was asking. Extra star for having a live person pick up, in spite of not knowing much about a great Italian dish their online menu shows they DO serve. I won't be going there...but maybe try it later if I see good reviews. If so will go in person and take a look.

We decided to try The Place without reservations on a Saturday night - a mistake on my part!! The restaurant was very crowded at 7PM with an hour wait. Fortunately, we were able to grab 2 seats at the bar. Speaking of the bar, we had the best bartender I have experienced in years!! I wish I had got his name, but he's definitely Italian looking with a great mustache and wonderful sense of humor. He had a great attitude given the restaurant was crazy with customers. Almost an hour went by before we were informed our order was messed up by the cooks!! Our bartender came over and apologized for the delay. Nice touch. However, it was about 30 more minutes before we got our appetizer, so at least an hour went by without any food. This was while others around us who came in after us were already eating their main course while my GF and I sat sipping our wine and waiting...again our bartender apologized for the wait which was nice of him. I was disappointed that the restaurant didn't offer to comp us at least the appetizer or the wine...that would have been a nice, respectful touch but no such offer was extended....and we had to wait another 20 minutes before any food showed up. Speaking of food, the artichoke appetizer was undercooked and disappointing. However, the ravioli main course was outstanding. The Place is expensive so bring your gold card and definitely make reservations.

Been here enough times to know a few things. The staff is usually really good except for Bar Meister Randy. All depends on his attitude of the evening if you happen to eat at bar. At best his Bill Burr-esque shtick can be amusing, but if he's frazzled that night there will be problems. He's been there for years so that won't change. What has changed is the food... its gone from passable to a joke. The pasta was sub par.... and sub par by California standards is one tiny step above Olive Garden. Never again.

Good food but very understaffed- Sunday with one server and cook. Server did everything- several people walked out due to not being acknowledged. Restaurant was out of several dishes and we waited a very long time for bread and drink. It was Also very cold inside. Front door is always open as it does not close properly. I will say server worked hard but sad there was no support. If you're ok waiting for service this is your go to place

Visited here for my mom's birthday and loved it! She even got a free birthday dessert. The restaurant its self is small and it gets busy so make sure to get here early for a table (or make a reservation.) Not much waiting room inside, but definitely worth the wait. I got the Macceroni e formaggio which was fantastic. If you love Italian food this is "the place" to go!

I wanted to try this place for so long and we finally did. The service was slow- like slower than slow. But we were in no rush and could see how hard they were working. It appeared to be only one chef and one waitress who was acting as host, server, runner, busser, bartender etc- hire that woman some help!!! The food was SO good. Almost indescribable. The hot bath makes you want to just melt in there with it. The mac and cheese was so flavorful and not dry it was just insanely good. Finished off with a cannoli and espresso martini and I was in absolute heaven. Definitely don't come here with small kids expecting a quick service meal. But if you have time to relax and really enjoy the food, then this is THE PLACE

The food was decent. Our server (guy with mustache) was kinda rude though, I dreaded everytime he would come because he would make a comment or two. I'm not sure if he was trying to be funny or if he's just straight up mean.

They're consistent; consistently short staffed, consistently overwhelmed, consistently up- charging you without letting you know beforehand, consistently hit or miss with flavor and quality. When the food is on point it's delicious, but as Roseville's only non-chain Italian restaurant, 'the place' sure leave a lot to be desired.

The food is actually quite impressive. I'd say it's Michelin territory good and I'm not joking. However, as to why they don't have a star and probably other restaurants do locally which are less impressive is the extremely rude waitstaff. I used to eat here regularly but I genuinely have never been to a restaurant with worse service. I saw a waitress throw a glass at a woman.

Authentic Italian cuisine, excellent wine list, friendly attentive service. All around awesome! Couldn't be better!

This place is amazing! When my group of 4 including me came, there was a musician singing in the corner. Awesome music! The waitresses working at were extremely kind and friendly. When they accidentally put chicken in my friend's order, they immediately went to go replace it. Amazing restaurant that I would recommend to anyone in the area. It was great going with some pescatarian friends!

I have wanted to try this spot for awhile and finally got the chance. It is in old town roseville and from the outside it is understated. Once inside it is well appointed, clean, and not cramped like i thought it would be when approaching outside. I liked the vibe with wood burning pizza oven in the back. I ordered a bit off-menu, but it was a simple linguine, marinara, and prawns. And it was good. Not great, but i would order again. Sauce had good deep flavor. Prawns were a bit overdone and could have used better seasoning. Also it was served with tails on, which is standard for a dish you may be eating with your fingers, but for a pasta dish it meant i needed to do the extra step of removing the tails gently while not splashing sauce on me or my neighbor. It's a detail but would have been nice if that was done before it was served. They provide a bread basket with homemade foccacia bread, which was excellent. So net net, it was an OK lunch in a comfortable environment. Why the 3 stars? The value for this meal was well out of step with expectations. The bill was $32 before tip, for a very simple pasta dish. Their cost for my plate was maybe $4-5 and that is being generous. In my opinion this place is 2 or 3 times as expensive as it should be. This restaurant is not at a high end casino on the strip or a swanky resort overlooking the beach. I would kind of understand that. No, this is next to the tracks in old town. They are out of touch with reality. And to top it off, i looked closely at my bill and they sneak in a BOH surcharge of 5%. Nowhere on the menu or signage at the tables did they say that they add this surcharge. It is ridiculous and almost laughable when taken in the context of how much they are already overcharging. Of course I, like most people i suspect, just calculated my tip from the original subtotal and reduced that by the surcharge. Net net the same outcome for me but i really disagree with these types of hidden charges. I'm not the atm to fund whatever social justice movement is in vogue at the moment. I doubt that i will return.

I'll try and be brief, but it was a lot. I'll start positive... we showed up early for our reservation in the hopes of squeezing into a table before our scheduled time. The hostess was able to accommodate us and that was great. Our server was very bubbly. I thought she might be new because she had no idea what a Pelligrino was and kept calling it different things like "Pelligano and Pellatino." We asked to split an appetizer and a Caesar salad and she told us we should put in our entree at the same time because "it's busy." We asked to put the starters in first because we had not decided on our entrees yet. The salad came out first. There was no offer of extra plates, salt or pepper. The bread came next and she made a separate trip for the dipping oil. We had extra plates by then and she also left bread plates. After a while she brought out the appetizer and left the empty salad plate and extras so now our table was at max capacity. We stacked the plates and were enjoying the conversation and the app when she came over and started setting the table next to us. She suddenly remembered that we had not ordered yet and took our orders. We both added chicken to our pastas. She offered me another drink and I said no thank you. When our pastas came, they were brought out by another person and only mine had a tiny amount of chicken. (Definitely NOT worth the up charge.) My date's had none. Again, no Parmesan, salt or pepper offered. And our table still had not been pre-bussed and we had to ask her to take the empties. When we were almost finished, our server came by to see how everything was and apologized for forgetting my drink. I reminded her that I hadn't ordered another one. She brought me one on the house anyway. In the end, my pasta was bland and I've had it there before and it had been amazing. My date was completely frustrated and he's usually the patient one. Despite it being my birthday dinner we did not order dessert. We had enough for one night. Ironically, my daughter and her friend went there tonight and she described much of the same kind of thing except the server completely forgot to put their order in and didn't figure it out until someone tried to drop off their bill!! The place has gone way downhill IMO.

Food is really good , portions could be bigger for sure. Thought I ordered a kid plate... people dress up but it's not fancy at all

Came here in between normal lunch and dinner time on a Sunday after walking around downtown Roseville for a bit. Got seated immediately. It sounded like they get pretty busy on the weekends with reservations. I ordered the boscaiola - three types of mushroom with pasta and a creamy oregano sauce. It was so delicious and there were tons of mushrooms. I think the waitress said it was 6 oz of pasta. It was enough for me to finish in one sitting without being super full. It also came with focaccia bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar that was great. My friend got the margherita pizza with added pepperoni and said it was really good as well. No complaints. I think it came out to $48 before tip. Would come back to either get the same thing or try something else on the menu.

The food is always fantastic here, it's one of my favorite Italian restaurants. I will usually come if I'm in the area for a concert or kid sporting event. The ambiance is cute, rustic Italy vibes, but often pretty warm in there (old building). Service is usually good and the bartenders are fantastic! One of my faves is their tagliatelle with meatballs, so good! Their pizzas are also great as is their lasagna. Try a cocktail too, they will not disappoint!

The service here is phenomenal! The staff are super friendly and of course just really helpful. Makes the whole experience so much fun. I got the House Margherita pizza. It was really good. The restaurant has a great vibe. Classy and quiet enough for a good conversation with out having to speak loudly. Ive been here a few times now and it's always a pleasure. Just had an issue with the front door. The door would open on its own and bring in a cold windy draft in. They really gotta fix that thing. Also, I highly recommend to NOT to bother getting the sad excuse for Lasagna. Sorry to break it to everyone, it's trash. Save yourself and don't even bother going on a Friday and hoping to get a bite of it. They run out quick and it's really not all that good as most claim it to be. Just stick with everything else, like the mushroom risotto. I had a bite of that, that's really good! The lasagna was garbage though.

Food was excellent service was excellent. Ambience was excellent. The entertainment was excellent. It's our new go to place for the whole family. I recommend it highly to anyone. I can't wait to get back there and have their delicious lasagna.
