Neighbourhood gem
Good for special occasions

"Delizie" meaning delicious, is an enthusiastic endeavor to preserve sacred family traditions & bring delight to peoples’ plates far beyond Italy's borders. Hailing from Calabria, the infamous "toe" of the Italian peninsula where the mountains meet a breathtaking coastline, owner Francesco Ruggiero brings to life the richness of this southern region's culinary heritage, introducing & reacquainting others with an irresistible array of savory flavors & vibrant aromas. Using a combination of carefully selected imports & fresh, locally grown ingredients, you can indulge to your heart's desire in a variety of homemade pastas & traditional dishes. To render the meal complete pair your food with an appealing wine from a list featuring Italian & Californian wines that best suit your palate. The restaurant itself maintains a cozy, relaxed, yet elegant feel that invites others to join in the ambience that comes to life when the simplest things are brought to the table: good food, wine & people.

We return to Delizie over and over because they treat us very nicely and the food is consistently delicious. We’ve celebrated two birthdays, New Years, and Valentine’s at Delizie, and each time the staff went above and beyond to provide a memorable experience.

Delicious food! The calamari is great, my favorite was Rigatoni a la Nonna. Right amount of spice and heat and lovely cooked pasta! Nice selection of Italian wines. Dessert. Go for Ricotta Pistachio cake!

This is easily one of my favorite Italian restaurants in the area. Their food is always great, the service is awesome, and they regularly have specials. It's a great place to feel catered to with great wine and atmosphere. They even made this meal great by making it truly a happy birthday experience for my partner. Simple awesome!

Always a special treat. The food is consistently delicious. We love coming here! This time we had the branzino and seafood gnocchi as our mains - both were outstanding! The pistachio tiramisu cake was light and flavorful. Service was attentive as usual. Delizie is always at the top of our list!
