“Jose, the bartender is always excellent.”

Jose, the bartender is always excellent. Gnocchi is a favorite. Volcanic lava cake is delicious. Great espresso martinis. Recommend the mussels in white wine sauce, Parmesan crusted scallops, and lasagna.

“First time dining here and won’t be the last.”

First time dining here and won’t be the last. From the moment you walk in and are greeted by the amazing hostess till you’re finished with your meal, it’s a wonderful experience. Went in on a Tuesday night, packed place and I now know why, but didn’t realize it was 1/2 price wine night, an added bonus to what was a great night. We sat in the bar area/high top and the bartender was our server as well, she was friendly and very attentive. The bussers were on top of their service as well, from taking our empty dishes to making sure our water glasses were constantly full. We started with the giant meatball appetizer, a perfect one at that packed with flavor and so tender. I ordered the spaghetti special which came with a salad to start, the dressing is perfect and a must try, but the spaghetti was top notch too which came with more of those incredible meatballs, so much food and so happy I have leftovers to enjoy the next day. I HIGHLY recommend going there if you haven’t, we will be regulars and I have to apologize for not going sooner, I’m the one who’s been losing out!

Held a baby shower there. Ben & Danny were our servers and from minute one until we walked out the door, they were very attentive to every guest. They were also accommodating to food allergy guests. Great venue, excellent food and exceptional service!

“Thursday is Absolut Martinis.”

Thursday is Absolut Martinis. Frenchies are delicious. Fabulous food, great service, never felt rushed. All the dishes were a hit. We enjoyed the Asparagus salad to start. Our entrees were Gnocchi, Linguini and Clams, Chicken Parm, and Risotto. I forgot to snap pics of desserts, but the Cheesecake, Creme Brule, and a sundae style carmel gelato with biscotti were delicious as was well.

“I've dined here many times and have never had a bad meal.”

I've dined here many times and have never had a bad meal. They have a bar and high tops near the bar and a dining room and an outside patio for dining when it's nice out. I usually try and grab a seat at the bar and then end up staying there to eat as well. The free bread and oil is good; and the salads, pizza, linguine and clams are some of my fave items to order. They have a standard menu and also offer a specials menu. Last time I went they had a grouper entree on special and I tried it as I love grouper. It was seasoned and broiled nicely. It can get crowded by the bar and you may have to wait awhile to get a drink but the staff is always pleasant and make good cocktails. This is one of my fave Italian restaurants in Orland.

“I'm not sure if you're a foodie or not, but I think you'll love this Italian restaurant.”

I'm not sure if you're a foodie or not, but I think you'll love this Italian restaurant. The cozy bar is perfect for hanging out, while the tasty food and excellent service make it a fantastic spot for a night out. The chicken dish is a must-try, and the scallops are so tender they'll make your taste buds sing. And if you're looking for a pre-dinner drink, don't forget to try an Italian Negroni - it's the perfect start to a perfect evening!

Ngl I was really skeptical about the plating and dishes since this was my first time coming but LET ME TELL YOU!! This was absolutely delicious!! I got the chicken picatta and it was so rich and creamy I loved it 🙏 it was full of flavors and the lemon taste of the pasta paired really well with the chicken! Definitely a must try if you do come here—cleaned my plate and everything

Underrated! The vibe on the outside seating is sexy! Very calming and classy. Mostly adults here. The waiter that served was very respectful and recommended some very good dishes. The food is so fresh my wife and I absolutely loved everything. From the zucchini to the shelled pasta. I highly recommend. This is one of the only places in orland that you get that classy city feel.
