Mom and pop joint. I enjoyed my veggie breakfast omelette and my partner thought the Philly mushroom cheesecake was mediocre. Partner thought it was weird to have it served with lettuce, and wished there was an option for Swiss cheese instead. My partner is too picky and difficult to please. I tried the sandwich and it was fine to me. I hope to come back and try other items on the menu.

The owner is so sweet. I don’t know what they do to their Thai tea, but it is the best one I have found in the Richmond area. Amazing. If the order is under $10 you need cash and I make sure to have cash on deck so I can go grab their delicious tea!! Love this place

Started going here in the mid 1980's. I love the welcoming aroma of garlic that hugs you real hard as you walk in! So glad it hasn't changed, like just about everything else has. Would you like your traditional M&M's to be changed up, never to be tasted again? The sauce for the jumbo prawns is my favorite, one of a kind. It's great comfort food, and you don't leave hungry. Everything's fresh. Love the bread!

I love this mom and pop restaurant. They always are warm and welcoming here. It’s an Asian Italian restaurant. Food is good quality here, very early Americana feel to this place. Just good decent food for an okay price. Tonight they really touched my heart when they offered to cut my food up because of my broken hand. It’s the kind of thing I expect when I come here, always welcome, considerate, and well fed. Love this place and the people here

Sally is the owner and so wonderful! I ordered catering for a Valentine's event at my church and she added tons of extras to our order to make sure everyone was fed and well satisfied. My favorite dish is the Fettuccine Della Casa! Support local!

The wait staff seat you quickly and take your order almost immediately. The food comes to the table incredibly fast and hot. The food quality is good and the portions are fair. The prices are high compared to the other food options on the block. Parking is quite challenging at peak meal times.

An Italian omelet (eggs and red sauce over a huge serving of ground beef) made a tasty and high-protein quick lunch at a very reasonable price.

They had a type of fusion of Italian and I think Chinese. The food smelled good and had a variety of options. I decided on a Philly cheese steak and a refreshing beverage. It was overall a good experience and it's a place to enjoy comfort food.

I was hoping for an authentic Italian restaurant, but this was not the case. The minestrone soup was very basic. I had the ravioli and meat sauce. The ravioli was good. The meat sauce was very generic. The price was rather high for the quality of the food. Waitress was very prompt, and the food came out hot and quickly. If you are looking for a quick bite to eat, this restaurant would be fine, if you’re looking for true quality ethnic Italian food, this is not the place for you.

Food was yummy, tho very different from expected. Should be marketed as Chinese Italian food. Pricey for what you get, we only ordered one entree to share and it was almost $40. It was pretty cold in the restaurant as well, wear a sweater.

Staff is very friendly and inviting however I hate to say it but the food could use a lottt of help. This place brings out my inner Gordon Ramsey -- they just need a few tweaks for the prices they are charging. (My pasta was swimming! Lol) I hope this was more constructive than a let down -- I know it's hard to run a good restaurant. Keep up the good work and plz continue to read the reviews 👌

Very friendly, but don't understand English well. Dishes came to the table dirty (floating things in my water, glasses had red sticky stuff on it). Salad is literally lettuce.lol.No where close to authentic Italian! Prices are ok roughly $4 for a drink, $12 for the special, $20 for most meals

Did not like the food low quality. the salad was just one slice of tomato and lettuce. Alfredo chicken fake chicken, and the sauce was horrible tasted. The price was outrageous! $125 for 3 plates 2 sprites, and water. Good service though.

Incredibly expensive and they tried to take more. Paid in cash for a to-go order and they attempted to not give me my change. Given it was a small amount, but I need my coins for laundry so I typically leave tips in dollar bills. I was peeved that they assumed my change was their tip (esp on a to-go order). I told the cashier about the issue and she had an attitude and gave me less than half of my change. Over this principle issue, I will not be going back. And if you do, I would definitely recommend not paying in cash!! Also, spaghetti and meatballs should imply more than three meatballs! Overall feeling scammed by this place.

This is what Italian food tastes like if you bought all your ingredients at the frozen section at Walmart. Terrible meatballs & generic marinara, the pasta is drained and served like they do in soup kitchens- not tossed with hot butter, garlic and cheese but just thrown on your plate straight from the colander. You can seriously do a better job at home with American Beauty pasta and a jar of generic marinara from Safeway. Not sure how this places stays in business but this neighborhood doesn't have a good sense of what Italian food should taste like. Maybe Fiorella a few blocks to the east on Clement will eventually wake everyone up.

The rudest staff! Went with my family of 4 sat, used the restroom then reviewed the menu and all items were over $25, out of my budget. Apologized to the waitress who then became irate yelling that we came only to use the bathroom and we were never allowed back. We were shocked at her behavior. We should have known better when the restaurant was empty. Avoid at all costs!!
