Bodega Biondi

The service was great and the food was delicious. Our party ordered the Eggplant parmesian, the Meatball Sandwich, the Breakfast Omelette, the Stuffed Manicotti,and the Potatoes Brava. We all shared small samples of each meal and were all in agreement that evry dish was fantastic.

Food: Solid Italian food and tasty. We had the lasagna, chicken marsala, minestrone soup, and calamari. All the food was good overall. Their minestrone soup was thick and I liked the inclusion of lentils.Service: Service was prompt and good. They accepted reservations here. Ambiance: Cozy and warm overall. My only potential issue was the fact that the inside was rather smoky/hazy when we arrived, so their air circulation didn't seem that great when we went. I could see people with dry eye potentially having issues in that environment.

What an unexpected surprise...Nestled in old Fair Oaks, this could be a hidden gem. My favorite dining companion and I settled in at our table, and perused the menu. Diners tip: this is a super small restaurant, and reservations are a good idea. We ordered the gnocchi with pesto sauce as a shared appetizer, The gnocchi and pesto are made in house, and you can taste it! They do offer three different sauces for you to select from for the gnocchi, and the pesto came recommended. The gnocchi was pillowy, and the pesto was perfect. This is definitely a must try.We opted for one more appetizer, and chose the meatballs. Another great call! Service was fairly slow, and the only thing that we could figure out was that by the time the meatballs made it to the table, could have been because they were made to order. However, that wasn't communicated with us, nor were we told that there would be a long wait. So I'm just speculating. It's also possible that other orders were taken care of before ours.The meatballs were delicious! The perfect combination of seasoning, different meats, and just everything. The meatball itself was a good size, and I absolutely love the fact that it wasn't this heavy dish, but instead they have perfected making meatballs. So if these were made to order, then they were absolutely worth the wait. The marinara sauce also surprised me in a good way. It wasn't acidic, it was light and flavorful and a perfect compliment to the well seasoned meatball. The light sprinkling of Parm on top was a nice way to enjoy each bite.We found ourselves full after the two appetizers, and after the relatively slower service, we didn't want to wait for a full entrée.This is a lovely quaint restaurant. Parking is challenging, but if you're looking for a place for a lovely date, good times with friends, or a small family dinner, this is definitely worth checking out!

Cozy and comfortable wine bar / grill / lounge.A wide variety of wine offerings are available.A genuine Italian Beef sandwich with great au jus and giardinera is available. A small cheese fondue appetizer is also available. Great food, great service, comfortable and well appointed atmosphere.

Adding... updating a few photos. Worth checking this place out. Great for a date or just hanging out with some friends. Great service and a nice laid back ambiance.

New bodega! Let's get after it. Visited twice. Both delightful. First time was to smash through a flatbread (Franco! Meat counter on a flatbread - so good) and work. Back patio was quiet and easy to work and eat (and drink). White wine was tasty. Service was great. Second time, brought the Better Half and sat at the bar. Beet salad is a gorgeous presentation. Added the minestrone, which was exactly what this cold, rainy fall day needed. Husband had the harvest salad, which he seemed to enjoy. The tortilla Española was good, but not my fave. Flavors on point. Wine is delish. Service is excellent. New fave!

Food Amazing Service Amazing Thank you Rachel!!!Ambiance-Absolutely Wonderful.The evening was absolutely great. The Staff was so Welcoming and all the Patrons appeared to be so happy and contented.

Came here for a date night and had a blast! We showed up early (5pm) and we had no reservations, but we still got a nice two top table by the window. Then by 6pm it got busy, full, and people had reservations so I recommend you get them because it isn't a big place inside. Wine selection was amazing and delicious. Food was outstanding, it's small plates so we got about 5 different things to share and we finished every piece of food. Pics posted so check them out, and this might be our new date night spot. This is in the village so parking can be tough if it's busy, prepare for that.

Fantastic service and even better food. The lasagne was the best I have had. Tasted like a home cooked meal.

I wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, my bf and I feel like we wasted around $80 on a very mediocre dinner. I don't know if we will give this place a second chance. It will be along time. We got the steak bites for an appetizer. They had good flavor, but it was over cooked and there was nothing with it. It could have been on a bed of arugala or something. I got the chicken marsala. It looked and tasted like it came from a cafeteria at an assisted living. Like it was trying to be good, but just didn't get there. My partner got the manicotti. He is not a complainer but he said it was very mediocre and he was not happy with his meal. We did get the food to go. Perhaps that made a difference? but it really shouldn't have. The menu is also super random, it's like this place doesn't know what it wants to be. very weird.
