This is a sweet, intimate, family owned Italian restaurant. You can tell everything is authentic in each and every one of their dishes. Even their bread is homemade and it was the best bread I have had in a restaurant. The first time we came here (6 years ago) we tried their pizza. The pizza is fun to order because you get to choose how much sauce and cheese you want. They have an extensive list of toppings and everything tastes so fresh. Pizza is definitely 5 stars! This time, we both ordered pasta dishes. I ordered their pesto and mine was so fresh tasting and the flavors were well balanced. My wife ordered chicken alfredo and it was the cheesiest, tastiest alfredo I've ever had. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the chicken was quite dry and I could only eat a couple pieces of it before I gave up on it. But overall, I would recommend this place and we will be coming here again next time we visit the Mendocino area.

What a great regular ol' neighborhood spot. It seems like places like this almost don't exist anymore (or really don't care about their food quality enough to bother.) The pizza was soooo good and every dish that came out had people asking "what did that table order??" It's small so don't expect immediate seating or quick takeout but expect the bread to be amazing and the house Italian dressing to be really made in house! and delicious.

We love this place. Our first time was 20+ years ago and the pizza and salad were delicious! Came back when in the area a couple years ago and ordered pizza and salad to go and did not disappoint. We were in the area again just recently and very tasty! Great service, nice people, old style atmosphere, (don't go by the outside strip mall ) you won't be disappointed! Yum!

This is a pizza place that is in a mini strip mall in Ft. Bragg. My wife and I were jonesin' for some pizza and Yelp came through....many, many good reviews...almost too good to believe. Warning it doesn't look like much from the outside but trust the reviews and go in. So, the pizza and service were 5+ - to quote other Yelp reviewers, it might be one of the best pizzas we've ever had. The service was very helpful since my wife has a few allergies - especially egg so anything mayo is also out. The server was incredibly helpful, checking other dishes in the back for egg related ingredients. Two thumbs up. So my wife had a meat lover pizza with light cheese and thin crust and, after stealing a few bites, I had to agree, it was mindblowingly good. I had their minestrone soup as a starter before my lasagna - very good. So, why a 4 star? This is one of those where you wish there were 1/2 stars....A few small bobbles. First, get ready to like your neighbor eaters because your booth bench is really close with the bench across the way...not a deal killer but a little uncomfortable. Also, they provide bread at the beginning but it's really like sliced white bread, light sourdough maybe? Not much taste. The final bobble was the lasagna - my wife had the pizza and I ordered the lasagna. I realize there are a lot of opinions on lasagna but here's mine...The dish was a cheese bomb. I literally had to dig to find any meat sauce. The ratio was upside down - needed way more meat, way less cheese. This was a Wednesday and the place was hopping - it's clearly a popular local place for good reason. This place is a must stop if you're in the area but my recommendation is to stick with the pizza.

Fast, friendly service. Consistent excellence with salads, pizzas, sandwiches, and calzones. The minestrone soup is tasty. Have been going here when in town every year for over 15 years. Oh, and the house-made bread ahead of the meal is always a treat! Always busy, but never noisy. You feel like your in your Italian mama's kitchen.

Been coming here since i was a kid, and it's always consistently good. still reasonably priced for all the food you get. i rarely take home left overs, but the meatball sub was huge for $17, with a side salad and bread as a starter! fast service!

7. Emily G.

Everything on the menu sounded yummy. Asked the waitress to surprise me. She brought me a full order of lasagna and this was HEAVEN. layers of meaty cheesy yummy goodness. The basil vinaigrette was mind blowing and I still think about it weeks later. Great service. Delicious food. Pleasant surprise tucked away in For Bragg.

Excellent portion sizes. I mean they were very generous with it. It's an Italian restaurant that has been around for a while. They offer hometown Italian fare such as pizza, focaccia, and soups and salads. They also sell their home made Italian bread and garlic bread, baked fresh daily. I tried their pesto linguini with chicken and it was pretty good. I probably would omit the olives out next time but the dish itself was bright and very herby. The pesto gave the dish a savory and rich flavor. Server was pretty friendly but it did take a while for the food to come out. It didn't seem too busy inside but they did have a few takeout orders.
