Garduno's Italiano - Costa Mesa

Family owned OG OC Italian joint. Quaint, delicious, how did we not know about this sooner? Hand made pastas. House dressing is unreal. Come hungry.

I’ve been going here for a few years. I’m never disappointed. Small little family owned place with great food in my opinion.

I had an invite at Maggiano's Little Italy. My experience was pleasant except I was expecting Little Italy to be more of an Italian Piazza or an experience of a restaurant more than a family diner. The crepes were a bit edgy I didn't care for them much for the breakfast but I loved the fruits and desserts including the creme brulee. Next time I'll check out the bar and cocktails. It's a good spot if you're going shopping at the mall because the mall has one small Cafe restaurant and a Starbucks. I would go back for the service the waiters were very pleasant, polite and professional, which is something unique if you live in Los Angeles.

Amazing made-from-scratch dishes. Everyone was kind and professional. Reminds me of a few Italian Restaurants I’ve visited in Philly and NYC on the past. Definitely recommend this place as your local Italian joint.

Food was delicious, reasonably priced post plandemic, date night with wifey was less than $50 my only complaint was the parking situation but other than that everything was
