      This is the most authentic italian food close by besides going to italy! I have visited italy, and this is by far the best I've tried here. I ordered the homemade gnocchi and it was delicious, my family loved their orders as well. The service was great as well, all staff members were very kind and sure we were alright the whole dinner. Food got served very fast as well. The vibe inside is very old-timey in the best way, it gives casual with an elegant flair.

      We came here on a Saturday night for dinner after reading all the good reviews this place has acquired. Highly recommend making a reservation because it gets packed!

      Here's what we ordered:
      Appetizer: Zucchini fries.
      Came out fresh and crispy. Before I knew it, they were gone!
      Main dish: Funghi Porcini and Fettuccine with vodka pink sauce
      Both were equally good but the Funghi Porcini was the hit from everyone in our group. From my 7 old year: it was the BBBEEESSSTTT.
      Dessert: Canolli
      It was quite good
      Cocktails: Strawberry lemon drop and Midnight beach
      Both were good. Midnight beach stood out.

      Highly recommend this place when you're in a mood for Italian fare.

      We decided we wanted some Italian comfort food on a lazy Sunday. Last time we went to Italian Bros. was some time back and it was time to get another taste!

      We sat outside, they have ample seating both inside and outside. We sat in their parklet and then ambience is perfect, other nearby restaurants were also busy serving brunch, but we needed Arancini and Lasagna. The arancini was excellent, two were bolognese and two were spinach and cheese, glad we chose both flavors! Then we had their lasagna, in the US lasagna is often reproduced with ricotta instead of béchamel, this is not authentic and I won't eat this. The Italian Bros. version was the real deal and probably the best I've had in the US, I was super impressed. My only complaint, the inside of the restaurant is a little dated and needs some work, but as mentioned their outside is lovely.

      Delicious pasta! We ordered the papardelle rustica and spinach ravioli, both were outstanding. The food is fresh and you can tell the handmade quality of the pasta!

      The restaurant itself has both indoor and outdoor seating and the servers were very nice.

      Ambiance: The restaurant is not big but has a nice inside and a small patio area with heaters outside that is covered.

      Service: Our service was great. The restaurant looked like it was run by family as several of the women appeared to be spouses of the other folks who worked there. They were very courteous.

      Food: Please see below; we went here for our wedding anniversary and it was well worth the drive!

      ---------------------------------

      Appetizers:
      - Burrata and Prosciutto: The presentation of the app was fantastic and the meat was very fresh and the burrata was very tasty.

      Main:
      - Ravioli Crostacel: My Wife ordered this and she said that it was very tasty but the food portion was so large that she could only finish about 1/3 and we had to take the rest home (for reference, she ate it for another meal and then my younger son who is 8 also ate it as a meal!)

      - Rigatoni Mafiosa (sub for Fettuccine): I had this as my main and it was SO TASTY! Again the portion was massive and I could only finish 1/2 but I had it for another meal. It was very hearty and actually spicy. Nice dish!

      Desert: We never ever get desert but since it was our anniversary, we got desert and it was Tiramisu...it was so good!!

      Had a chance to do an awesome date night with my fiancé and it was great! This is a really cute mom and pop shop with really delicious and wholesome Italian food. We got reservations earlier in the day and were promptly seated with great service. Once we sat down we ordered:

      * pesto pappardelle - this was a homemade pasta and came with clams and shrimp and omg this was delicious. The sauce was perfectly creamy and the pasta was cooked to perfection

      * homemade casarecce pasta salsiccia e funghi - this was absolutely delicious and each bite was a chewy flavorful perfection. We had it the next day also and so yummy

      *limoncello cake - you must get this when you go!! Me and my fiance gobbled this up in a jiffy

      If you do a Yelp check in they give you a mini ricotta cannoli - so yummy and flavorful. You also get some bread for your entrees which is awesome. Overall AMAZING experience and can't wait to go back!

      Good food, friendly staff, American Italian style on the creamy side,

      We liked the arenchini and the flat bread,
      Lazgane, not on menu was well made,
      Also the gnocchi pesto and ravioli short rib,
      The marinara gnocchi was a miss, but they kindly took it off the bull, will. Be back!

      Came here on a Friday night with six people and it was great. The service and restaurant decor was perfect. They were very attentive and it was like being in Italy with their design. Started out with the meatball appetizer and it was delicious. The meatball was tasty and their sauce was amazing. I got the chicken parmigiana and it was perfect. My wife loved her veal raviolis. Then we moved on to dessert and another homerun. I got the gelato and it was fantastic. Dont miss out on this place!

      I love the pasta here! We ordered caprese and carbonara for lunch and they were delicious. The pasta was perfectly al dente with a creamy sauce, just as I imagined it. Caprese was so simple yet so refreshing. Being in downtown Los Gatos is a plus--it's surrounded by cute shops and restaurants. It's a great spot to spend an afternoon enjoying a meal while exploring the area. The service was quick, and everyone was so friendly. The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere too. I would definitely come back!

      Authentic Italian food at prices that are reasonable. Large sitting area outside the restaurant that makes the ambiance relaxed and chill. Items were well cooked and amounts are filling. Vincenzo took care of our table and he was attentive. I strongly recommend everyone to try this place though it could be a little far for some. We stay a little far but found the ride worth the time. Each item was prepared with care and tasted delicious. Definitely worth many more visits.
