While looking for food in the area, I came across this place based on its reviews and decided to give it a try. I ordered the Chicken Lasagna and the black sauce pasta. I asked the gentleman taking my order if I could add extra veggies to the pasta, but after driving an hour back to my side of town, I realized none of the additional veggies nor shrimp I requested were included.The Chicken Lasagna was decent--different, but I'd rate it a 7/10. As for the black sauce pasta, I was told it would have some spice, but it ended up being more on the sweet side, almost like it had a hint of BBQ sauce. I'd rate that a 4/10.

This place was so delicious it has become an absolute staple everytime I go to SoCal. Seriously worth it. Much better than the extremely pricy Italian restaurants.

We dined in and had the shrimp pasta and shrimp risotto with pink sauce. So delicious and it was all cooked perfectly. Service was excellent. Price was amazing. They give you free bread and chips as well. There is a parking lot or you can park across the street at Ralph's. They do have a few tables to sit at. I will definitely be back.

It was our first time here at this place and overall we really liked it!ENVIRONMENT: This place is a hole-in-the-wall hidden gem. It's a very small restaurant with 8 tables total (3 two-person tables and 5 four-person booths). There weren't many people when we went but it might get crowded on other days. We parked on the street to get here. SERVICE: The servers are very friendly & attentive and made sure that we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Wait time was also very quick. They also gave us free chips and salsa as we waited for our food.FOOD: We ordered 2 entrees: the Carne Asada entree and the Monarca Chicken Pasta. Both dishes had huge portions!- Carne Asada Plate: very delicious, the meathad that nice charred bbq flavor with a hint of lime. It was a tiny bit dry though. It came with a side of rice&beans and garlic bread ...huge portion and very filling! 8.5/10- Monarca Chicken Pasta: this dish was surprisingly amazing! It was a chicken bowtie pasta dish with pink sauce (tomato + alfredo sauce) and their signature black sauce which is a sweet savory sauce that tastes similar to teriyaki sauce. I feel that the sweetness of the black sauce brought out all the flavors of the pink sauce and chicken. 9/10-Apple Pie: Their apple pie was not bad, but the crust was kinda hard and not very fresh. But we did like how it was warm and not too sweet, as well as the fact that it came with vanilla ice cream. 6.5/10PRICE: The prices here are very affordable! Almost every dish was under $15, and there were several that were under $10! This restaurant is really a bang for your buck.Overall, we highly recommend! Great food, great prices, and we will DEFINITELY come back to this place if we happen to pass by the area in the future!

What can I say this review was long overdue. Oh how I love with place. Three years ago I found this cozy hole in the wall. It's a take on Italian food with a Mexican twist. The food is always consistent and such a bang for your buck. The service is always friendly and welcoming. This is a small family owned business, nonetheless the food is prepared to order and comes out fast. The only con is that they close early so I miss my chance to grab dinner here and there.

Very good food. I had the chicken pasta and my husband had the carne asada. Everything tasted great. The service was also great and the food came out fast.
