Best Italian Restaurants in Fountain Valley

Incredible birthday dinner with delicious food, outstanding service and a lively atmosphere. We caught up with a friend and the restaurant let us stay while they closed the place down which was so thoughtful of them. We tried the butternut squash ravioli which was amazing and two of the seafood pastas which were truly outstanding. Make sure you stop by if you are in the mood for a great night of delicious Italian food!

Fresh new Italian restaurant with delicious food and a beautiful plating. Pomodoro salad was one of the best I ever tasted. Simplicity of yellowtail crudo made it very special with addition of beetroot sauce. King crab ravioli and chicken breast were very fulfilling mains. Chicken breast was stuffed with root vegetable purée, which is tasty, but not for me due to dietary restrictions, so I didn’t expect it and it was not clear from the menu. My husband enjoyed it though. Overall it was a very pleasant dinner experience.

Great food and great service always love coming to Maggiano’s!

Specials were “special”. Outstanding tableside deboning of Dover Sole which was rich and savory. Lovely presentation of Bananas Foster. Very genuine feeling of welcome from entry to departure.

Service was excellent. Food was delicious. The wait time for both getting the table and getting our food was great. The staff are very considerate. I perceived that they are short on staff, considering it's Christmas Day, but service was very kind, attentive and cheerful despite the stress of handling so many tables, even assuring us of getting our food as quick as possible, owing the waiting time before they got our orders. I really have to stress that as a comment of thanks and praise! Food tasted amazing. We had the big thin crust pizza, the pasta with the artichokes and chicken parmesan - all really good, great portions and tasty! We had the calamari as our appetizer. Really good crunch and the spicy marinara had a good kick to it!
