We arrived just 5 min before closing but, the lady helping us (I presume the owner) was super kind enough to let us order and she was super friendly and in no rush. Fast forward, we brought it home and when we opened the containers, the food was steaming hot and smelled great. We ordered the spinach ricotta and eggplant Parmesan with a side of meatballs and everything was delicious! It tasted so fresh and well prepared, I'd love to come back to try more! I can't wait to stop by and get a pizza or a sandwich. The interior was also really clean, mom and pop vibe. 10/10 all around, see you soon!!

What a wonderful place!!! We had to try the eggplant parmesan. Exceeded our expectations! The sauce was made with quality tomatoes. It was so homemade. The garlic bread was crisp and delicious. The service was top notch. We're looking forward to going back again. What a hidden gem in our neighborhood!

This is a cute mom and pop shop in a hidden part of Laguna Hills. I happened to stumble across it while I was picking up some items from the shop next store, and I am so glad I did. I ordered the minestrone soup, which was delicious. I could tell that it was homemade. I also ordered a full sized salad that came with the works ( peppers, cucumbers, onion, tomatoes, chickpeas) and it did not fall short. The current owner, who was pleasant and kind, spoke to me for a little bit about the restaurant and the new ownership. I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant and the food. I will definitely be back.

Absolutely delightful! The flavors of Italy come alive with each dish; the pasta is perfectly cooked and the sauces are incredibly rich. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making you feel right at home. Plus, the service was top-notch! I can't recommend them enough for a cozy dinner. A true gem!

Bro this place is awesome!! Tucked away in the middle of a business strip mall, so it's a little small. Despite this, the ambiance does not disappoint. Pictures and feel of Italy, and the food is awesome. I tried the cheese and short rib ravioli with butter and parmesan. Both were sooooo good. Ravioli was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. The garlic bread was even better. Man, it was good. The dude behind the counter was super helpful and friendly. Would 100% recommend to any ravioli fans.

This was a lovely, unexpected surprise. The location is in a business complex with no foot traffic, so I assumed this would just be a simple sandwich shop for the corporate lunchtime crowd. Instead, I felt like I was eating Italian food from Nonna's kitchen.It's not high end or fancy, but the food soothes your soul with richly flavored sauces and well-balanced ingredients. It's about $15/plate which is very reasonable given cost of goods everywhere. There's a handful of tables outside (dog friendly) and a slightly larger handful inside.The vegetable lasagne (fully vegetarian/no animal stocks used per owner) was full of hearty flavor, and my spouse loved how clean and fresh the tuna salad was. The coffee reminded me of an elevated version of church coffee, which added to the Nonna's food ambiance vibe.

This place has the most welcoming owners manning the counter, and some of the best Italian food in OC. The wild mushroom ravioli and the butternut squash ravioli are standouts - just excellent. It is in a very unexpected location in a very small space with only a few tables inside, but it's quite charming and well-worth a visit!
