Ameci Pizza &amp; Pasta - Oxnard North

Love, love LOVE Settebello's craft pizza!!!…read more Great service, food and wine/drinks. Cocktail menu is fun and worth the adventure! The ambiance is hip and love the hanging bar. And the view of the pizza oven! The little burnt marks & bubbling crust reminds me of pizza in Italy and France. Sorry Italy -- but France make the best pizza! They make the best everything when it comes to food. But I regress... haha Settebello's is the closest I can get to the Italy & France pizzas! NY is different and of course the best in the US -- but for west coast pizza, Settebellos is my FAV!!! Wish there was one in Westlake Village!! Anyway -- I let all my friend know how good the pizza and the beet salad are. And the Sun-Friday (3-6pm) happy hour -- is worth the drive!!! BTW - if you see a 1-star review from people in Ojai (and there are a few) I believe those reviews are written by a "troll or trolls" trying to bring down Settebello's ratings. So don't fall for those reviews. They should probably be flagged. Thank you Settebello for keeping a smile on my face when I'm jonesing for GREAT pizza and a nice casual dining experience!! Oh - -and the outdoor patio is a fun hang when it's summer and the evening temps are wonderful!

If I could give this restaurant 0 stars, I would…read more This was, without a doubt, the worst service I've ever experienced, especially considering the price point. Not only did it take a long time for anyone to even take our order, but they also forgot our waters. It took about 20 minutes before we received anything. We ordered drinks and two appetizers. One appetizer arrived after about 20 minutes, but our drinks didn't arrive until approximately 25 minutes after we ordered. While we waited, we observed several waiters standing around talking instead of helping customers. We also watched two other tables ask multiple times for their checks before finally receiving them. The staff didn't appear busy or overwhelmed, which made the delays even more frustrating. To make matters worse, several tables that were seated after us received their food before we did. After waiting a total of 40 minutes without receiving our second appetizer or even being offered drink refills, we had enough. We asked the busser for our check and requested to cancel the remaining appetizer because we were extremely frustrated at that point. Instead of a manager or supervisor coming to speak with us, the busser returned to tell us that we couldn't cancel the appetizer because it had already been prepared. We paid, took the meatballs to go, and left disappointed. Only then did our server come over and say, "Sorry, we got stacked up." No manager or person in charge ever came to apologize or address the situation. The person who appeared to be the manager simply dropped off our boxed food and walked away without saying a word. This was the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. I've dined here multiple times before and have always enjoyed both the food and the service, which makes this experience even more disappointing. Unfortunately, I will no longer support this business and will make sure to warn my family, friends, and colleagues to save their money and support businesses that value their customers and hire competent, attentive staff.

If I want store bought I'll buy them myself. These were so obviously reheated in a microwave it's stupid. Parts of the raviolis were hard and a had just a tiny amount of filling. Part of the spaghetti noodles hard & mushy. I detect more microwave cooking here too. Does anyone know what happened to them? It's such a shame as it used to be a prime dining experience.

I did, but the bossy-looking guy, kept on looking at me like he is annoyed by my presence. I just decided to leave because having that guy in a seemingly good restaurant like this did not come to me with positive vibes and I did not feel like being there.

Too bad for me I did not get to try the food here. Well, maybe next time.

While it's still aesthetic-ish, it feels like a European restaurant imitating an American cafe but less dialed in. A little more kitschy than cute. The food, sadly, was mid. I ordered my usual - known as the Caffe Breakfast here ($18). It comes with 2 eggs, your choice of protein (chicken sausage for me), potatoes, and ciabatta. It tasted like a regular ole hotel breakfast. The texture of the chicken sausage was crumbly which I didn't prefer and the eggs looked and tasted kind of limp. We also tried an omelette which was better, but not by much. On a more positive note, the line moves fast (esp since you're standing out in the sun).

This place is disgusting, I use to order delivery from here almost on a daily basis and I finally went into the place just to save the delivery charge and ewwww, I ordered my food and asked to use the restroom to wash my hands and walked by a sink on my left that was filled with dishes that looked like they've been there all night and there was no wash, rinse, or sanitizing water in any of the sinks, then the trash can I walked by smelled very badly and when I got to the back I looked out the back door just to see whats out there and there was a huge pile of mouse shit out there, another gross thing. the bathroom smelt like piss and the soap dispenser didn't even work so that made me think how the hell do the employees wash they re hands. on the way out I started noticing food on the floor and flies around the make-line table fridge, and I glanced over at they're cutting table and then I saw it, the pizza cutter just sitting on a small pizza pan covered in old food and so was the cutter and the hot box for the slices he sells was full of old crumbs and liked like the moisture water bin had ether stagnant water in it or oil and it was also filled with old food, it was soo gross that I just walked around the counter and told that Iranian dude to give me back my money and told him I'd never spend a penny on his food again, how the hell does he not get closed down by the health dept. for this crap. If I were any of you I'd save my money and my health and go to little ceasers across the street or go to some other pizza shop or risk getting sick from this disgusting place. read more
