Absolutely amazing. We searched for Italian and this location came up with great reviews so we arrived on a Saturday evening with no reservation and were lucky to have gotten a table. The owner was very nice and accommodating. Sheridan, our waitress was absolutely amazing. The food was so fresh and stayed hot the entire meal. We will definitely be back the next time we visit the area.

What a find!! Really enjoyed our meal! We ate on the patio, which is not much to look at, but ended up being quite pleasant. Closed enough to keep dirt and noise out but cool enough for comfort.We were greeted by (we assume) the owner, who was very friendly. He shared that he and his staff were all excitedly looking forward to an annual reward weekend trip to Palm Springs for the weekend! It is so lovely to hear of an owner sharing good fortune and showing appreciation for its staff.The service could not have been better. Upon seating us, several wait staff began serving YUMMY garlic knots and water. While waiting for our son and grandson to join us, we each enjoyed a glass of wine.Our entrees came out in very reasonable time (even brought out our 3 yr old grandson´s pizza a little earlier than ours which kept him happy and occupied!Hubby and I enjoyed the butternut squash vegan ravioli which were heavenly! Our waiter was very kind and attentive (but not intrusive!) Our son ordered a chicken parm which he thoroughly enjoyed. In the past he had enjoyed takeout from Ma´s but had never ¨dined-in.¨We all agreed we would be back, SOON!!

We did not have the best experience here. I will start off by saying, the hostess was super kind and amazing. And I do appreciate that they do have three vegan options, and they are full entrees as well. We had two people come to our table and get our drink order and asked if we needed anything. And then we had our server which was a very tall bald man come last to take our order. We placed our order and it took over 40 minutes to receive our food. Whenever we asked for anything like straws or napkins we had to ask 4+ times. Our server didn't really acknowledge us. We were surrounded by two other tables and he would come and check on those tables constantly and get them everything they needed not once did he turn around and ask if we needed anything or if we were okay. Not once. And we weren't okay and we did need things. Whenever we would call out to him when he was leaving those tables he would just keep walking. We had to ask another server and the food runner for assistance multiple times. I completely understand that it was busy and it looked like they were understaffed, however we were not informed of any of this by our server. Had he let us know it was busy but he would do his best to get to us. We would have completely understood. He didn't check on us it's almost like he completely avoided us. Because of this we will never return. We drastically cut the amount we are going to leave for a tip. And because of the tipping culture that America insist on establishing we still left a tip. Otherwise we wouldn't have left anything. I gave an extra star for the vegan options, The sweet hostess and the food runner and other server whose section we weren't even in who assisted us.

I loved this restaurant, the food is very good and the service that our waiter Edgar gave us was the best. Highly recommended and very grateful for the care provided.

TERRIBLE. MANAGEMENT SUCKS. Sat us by the bar and kitchen. Argued with me and said “we got this or the bar” started arguing with me so we walked out on Mother’s Day from Ma’s, LOL. Don’t dine in if you want a good experience with this place.

Our entire experience was excellent here. Our server was friendly, attentive, and he gave us excellent recommendations on the menu.

After the WB bros studio tour, we were famished. We googled restaurants close to the studio and found this place. The reviews were so good that we decided to try it. From the moment we got there, they went out of their way to make us comfortable and happy. Too cold? No problem, they turned on the heaters. The above head heaters stopped working? No problem, they brought in a propane space heater. Food was quick and just as delicious as the reviews said. the house Chianti was great and Knowing it was our first time, they comped us a delicious dessert. Something with salted caramel. Even though we were stuffed, we made room for it and it was just as good as the rest of the meal. If we lived here, I’d be back for sure. Our server Bob was wonderful, as was Michel (?) the owner (?) anyway. Great place. Thank you!! So glad we found you.

We were made to feel welcome from the moment we stepped in. Our host was friendly and our server excellent. The food was sublime! Highly recommended.

We got there around 8:30 at night and they close at 9, but said if we could order before 8:45 we could eat. We got Alfredo, ravioli, and the lasagna is amazing! Customer service was awesome, beautiful laid back environment, and even a trumpet player! We got a dessert on the house for no reason at all too it was delicious as well! Highly reccomend this place

This is a cute little Italian restaurant. The food was oh so yummy and the service was fantastic! I had the mushroom ravioli and we ordered a margarita pizza for the table. The mushroom ravioli was so creamy and savory and so good. We ordered the kids ravioli for my 3 y.o. and even that simple red sauce and ravioli pasta was good. The ravioli was filled with ricotta cheese. My daught loved it. The pizza was cheesy and full of flavor.Everyone really enjoyed their dinner.We arrived without a reservation on a Friday evening and they still got us in really fast. The manager did say if we can be out by 7:30 when the table was reserved by another party they'd be able to seat us. We said yes and we had a great time. We didn't even feel rushed to finish and we were done by 7:30 with time for them to clean up (the party) hadn't arrived yet.We will definitely be returning soon with a reservation!
