Their wood fired pizza has just the right amount of sauce and a great tasting crust. Our daughter loves their chicken bites and fries and our son always has a hard time deciding between their moist and tasty chicken sandwich or prime rib sandwich (both with homemade buns . My favorite recently has been their garlic pesto pasta (the pasta is homemade and melts in your mouth! . If you love garlic you need to try this dish and the breadsticks that come with it are so delicious. For an anniversary date we came here and had their special beer battered shrimp and fries and loved it! So far we haven't tried anything we didn't love on the menu and the atmosphere outside with the waterfall running is so peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely be back!

It was as though we were transported to rural Italy with all its charm and beauty. We sat outside in the rear patio area. I suppose that was for the restaurant to maintain social distancing for the safety of ourselves and others. The sound of running water from the architectural pools was soothing and contributed to the Mediterranean ambiance. My partner never completes a full meal. She did here. She had a local wine and I a local beer. Very reasonable pricing. The food, however, was the highlight. I had the best pesto pasta I've ever had. The breadsticks were outstanding. We saw and enjoyed the aroma of fresh wood baked pizza. The customers at a nearby table were locals and told us they loved the food and came often. I understand why and plan to return even though we live about an hour away in the Sacramento area. If you're hungry and looking for an excellent meal in a surprisingly exotic setting, give it a try.
