Lasagna was not great for $24. It was sloppy and it had no taste. Not enough seasoning either. This restaurant they won't serve Spaghetti, meatballs, bread and butter, no garlic, macaroni and cheese, and fettuccine alfredo.This business won't be here for long.

What a cute place. Authentic Italy for sure. The chef did an incredible job.My daughter is really picky and asked for something that wasn't on the menu. The chef came to the table and went ahead and made a pasta with a creamy garlic sauce for my daughter and she loved it.My lasagna was incredible. I think it was the best I've had.My older daughter got a lemon chicken scalopinni and that was yummy too.After dinner the chef offered dessert and we were full. So she still brought out some strawberries and an almond biscotti for a little treat.W really enjoyed the true Italian vibe and decorations.This is definitely a hidden gem in Santa Clarita. A must try for great Italian food.Dietary restrictions: They were able to previous provide gluten free options for one person in our party.

Nancy was amazing. Attentive and helpful. The food was delicious and fresh. Do not expect "Americanized". This has the pallet of Italy.Wheelchair accessibility: There are plenty of available parking spaces for handicap patrons.

This is my worst review, and I feel horrible. I just feel like I have to let you know what to expect. Most of my reviews are positive and 4 & 5 star reviews.My wife decided tonight that we were going to try something new. Usually I pick all the places we eat.After sitting us at our table, they offered us water. It took atleast 10 minutes for the water to arrive at the table. I ordered an ice tea and my wife ordered a glass of wine. By the time the wine arrived at the table there was an up charge, because it was aged an additional 5 years. This place doesn't hustle, so don't expect attentive service. Bread was not offered. My wife asked for bread and another 10 minutes passed before we got 3 small pieces of bread. Don't ask for butter, because they have signs that say no butter & bread. You get vinegar, oil, and spice. I ate plain bread. It's not the end of the world.We finally ordered 35-45 minutes after arriving and it took another 35-45 minutes for our food to arrive. In-between drinks, bread and our meal, no one came to check on us. I noticed that the staff wasn't checking on anyone.When our meal finally came we asked for more bread. They acknowledged the request,but the bread never came. While we were eating our meal, no one came to check on us and ask us "is everything OK?"My wife's lasagna looked like it had beef gravy poured over it and she said it tasted like lasagna with chili and beans.My spaghetti fruti with seafood was blah. The muscles and clams were still hiding in their shells & didn't burst open during the cooking process. They were not cooked correctly.For 2 entrées, 1glass of wine and 1 glass of ice tea it was $92. The food tasted as good as frozen entrées from Dollar General.Other patrons experienced the same problems. Service was horrible, wrong food served, and the people sitting next to us had their appetizers served to them twice, they had to ask for the salad when they ordered the appetizers, had to ask for the salad that never arrived. The two people who waited on us were kind and polite. They just don't understand how to properly wait on customers.Ultimately this place isn't going to be around very long. Their food isn't that good. Service is horrible and the topper is they won't serve Spaghetti and meatballs, bread and butter, no garlic, macaroni and cheese, and fettuccine alfredo. This business isn't here to succeed. It's here to make a statement. My wife read the other reviews, and I read them after the fact. Basesd on my experience tonight I don't believe those 5 star reviews. I've had great Italian food and this isn't it. Be warned.BTW...My wife apologized to me. Her first apology to me ever... ?Parking: One handicap spot near the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Not a lot of small kid options. If they are picky eaters, don't bring them.

We were looking for a quaint place to celebrate our 43rd anniversary. We found it here. Food was wonderful. Service was excellent, our waitress was very knowledgeable and fun. Great sense of humor. She made our night so special! Highly recommended for a special occasion!

I have eaten at many Italian restaurants and this would not be my top choice. Two is generous.

As other reviewers said, food portions are very small and expensive. Our family of two adults and two teens ordered four items totaling $130+ and still not feeling full after finishing all the food and free breads. We usually have some leftovers with other restaurants.The salmon is good. Salad is plain. Pastas are homemade quality with very little ground meat. Actually it's less tasty than our homemade.Not impressed and will not come back.

I was so impressed with the quality of the food in the authentic Italian cuisine! The staff is impeccable, Nancy and Summer, were attentive, and helpful. I am making this my once a week location to visit in the future and recommending to all my friends for authentic Italian cuisine.?

My fiancé and I ordered wine, an appetizer and 1 pasta dish each.They didn't open the bottle of wine at the table and were confused about us ordering a bottle of wine.The staff was not knowledgeable about the menu and could not answer basic questions.They kept bringing the wrong plates to our table, where we had to mention it was not something we ordered.Tables that came and ordered after us were receiving their entrees, then our waitress came up to us asking what we ordered because she didn't remember.At this point we were pretty hungry and asking if the food had been started yet or not. She lied and said she was just confirming.After waiting way too long we were both served under cooked pasta dishes that were underwhelming and over priced.While we were waiting we kept hearing puppy cries, then overheard the staff talking about how they bread dogs and keep them on the patio of the restaurant.This was one of the oddest/worst dining experiences we have had.For anyone looking for good Italian food please save your time and go to Piccola instead.

I went to celebrate my birthday at Litaliano with my family. Excellent service, the hostess brought us portions of delicious tasting cheeses to the tables, the food was excellent and very abundant. Nancy explained the menu to us and told us the history of the owner's family. Everything is beautiful and spectacular. Without a doubt, we will return. Happy 55 years for me. Thank you Nancy ?

I just had to share my experience at this incredible Italian restaurant. The food here is mind-blowing—delicious flavors and beautiful presentation. The staff is amazing, friendly, and always on point. The atmosphere is just right, creating the perfect vibe. Trust me, you've got to try this place! It's a true taste of Italy that will leave you wanting more.

It is difficult for me to write a 2 star review. However this is my experience last night and I am giving two stars solely because the food was decent. I was excited to try this place because of the other 5 star reviews and the hype on social media. After walking in, we weren’t greeted for about 10 minutes. There weren’t many tables filled, but everyone working ignored us. One finally came over and stated she didn’t see my reservation. Then she crossed off someone else’s name and continued to seat us.No one came to our table for about 25 minutes. We had to flag someone down to get water and they still didn’t bring any. We asked 3 different waiters to bring water and they all ignored us. We finally were able to order after 45 minutes of just sitting there. The food came out relatively quick, but two dishes came and mine didn’t come out for another 15 minutes! I just sat there and let everyone else eat. We ordered wine with our dinner and the waitress never brought it until we were done with our meal.The portions are on the smaller side and are very pricey for the quality it was. My truffle tortellini was good, so I will admit that, and the ravioli de zucca was good according my husband. However, for this price I’d rather go to a different Italian restaurant so that I receive better service. The staff were rude and not trained well.

Just an absolute gem of a restaurant, super delicious food and amazing staff.If you are in the mood for something truly special, and exciting Italian, this will become your new favorite place.This place has a unique Italian atmosphere, from the moment you walk through the doors, is like stepping into a cozy mom&pap restaurant in the old country. (And what’s not to love about that).We enjoyed a couple of different dishes, they were both way more than just delicious, you really should spoil yourself and your company, by coming here to try it yourself.I know we definitely will be back, to try out many more dishes in the future.
