Mi Piace - (Near Pasadena, CA)

5 /5 Hesam Kedinov: Great experience- what stood out the most was service. We sat in the lounge area, and our server was really attentive, patient, and present throughout. The burrata appetizer dish was really good and so was the Pizza. I’m not an expert in Italian food so can’t judge the bolognese

5 /5 Sophia Liu: The Caprese Burrata was a refreshing appetizer, I enjoyed the ratio of tomato to burrata. The Fettucine Alfredo Tartufo was so delicious, 9/10! The wider pasta noodles paired really well with the cream sauce, which was flavorful and not too heavy like other versions of this dish. But the portion size was a bit smaller than expected. Perfect for one person, but if you want to share dishes or are hella hungry, I’d recommend ordering two. The Farfalle Salmone Vodka was also very tasty. The smoked salmon was very salty, but if you eat it in small bites with pasta, the flavors balance out well. Solid 8/10! The open kitchen adds to the ambiance, but the restauraunt itself was quite dim. I think an addition of candles or mini centerpieces would really enhance the atmosphere. Although the service was a bit slow and difficult to get attention, the restauraunt was so busy and we didn’t mind too much. Shoutout to the one chef who went around asking how everyone’s dinner was. Gave him a fistbump and he kindly gave us a tiramisu on the house. Which was bomb!!! Perfectly balanced flavors and sweetness. Would come back just for that dessert. Overall, would definitely recommend this place to anyone craving some authentic italian.

5 /5 J Bird: Delicious pasta..really enjoyed pollo lasagna, calamari, spaghetti and meatballs, and pizza. Ambience is nice and service is great. Little pricey but you come here to enjoy fresh pasta! Dessert was good but skip apple pie, some odd herb thrown in and it just threw off the whole taste but great chocolate cakes. Enjoyed our midnight fantasy and velvet panache. Also recommend making a reservation, gets pretty packed and lounge may get crowded.

5 /5 Daniel Vasquez: Came in Saturday night with my date and we had a Reservation but ended up sitting at the bar. The vibe in the whole restaurant is great. Evn the bar seats are cozy. Inside the restaurant every table was full, and the ambience was just right.. I ordered the margarita pizza a chicken fettuccine pasta and a Caesar salad. All three items were fantastic. The pizza was delicious fresh and the pasta was very good. The salad was crisp and refreshing with the most incredible croutons! This was my second time here and both times I enjoyed my meal. The owner is always walking around making sure everything is just right, and you can tell because this place is top-notch I highly recommend.

5 /5 Christopher Myers: We tried a variety of entrees and every single one was impressive. Each dish was flavorful and satisfying, making it hard to pick a favorite. The food arrived quickly and the overall experience was excellent.
