Soooo happy to have found this restaurant!! We just moved to the area and food options have been subpar. Once we found Bambino's we got takeout 4 times within a week. Lol. I want to try everything. I love their pizza - crust is perfect. I love their pesto sauce (had it with tortellini). I love their chicken Marsala. read more

Bambino's - Pepperoni pizza - Italian Near Me - Concord, California

My fiancé and I have been coming in for months every Wednesday night for a date night. The service is amazing every time. The food is consistent we get the same thing practically every time we come in. When we try something new it's always good. Rotating beer selections and great happy hour prices. This is the perfect place for a date night or even a family night. read more

Family was tired of Skip's, Mountain Mike, Round Table, Domino's, Pizza Hut and even Strictly To Go Pizza. Thought about Rocco's but we decided to try Bambino's on Farm Bureau by Willow Pass in Concord. Ordered extra large with half mushroom/green pepper and other half pepperoni/sausage. Crust was ok, very Domino's like regular crust. Large slices. Toppings were ok but certainly not abundant or evenly spread across each half. Nothing special about it except tasting like a Domino's. They have pastas here but I couldn't see their menu on Yelp when we ordered for dinner so we didn't try it. Service was good. Had our order ready to go when we arrived. Maybe this is the place for those needing gluten free pizzas and pasta. I think I'll stick to my New York Pizza. read more

Bambino's - Italian Near Me - Concord, California

Walked in with my family and young server with dark hair set the tone. She literally has some weird vibes going on. The other male server / waiter shorter with dark hair was remarkable and deserves a raise though! Salad had some brown lettuce, pizza was served hot and fresh overall not bad for North Concord. read more

New favorite pizza spot! Our friends brought us here as a baby friendly restaurant to enjoy a night out and it did not disappoint! It's loud enough to feel comfortable with little ones and everyone is so friendly. We've been able to enjoy amazing food while walking around with the babies and feeling right at home. The gluten free pizza is delicious too! Total locals vibe! read more

The pizza was delicious, sauce was so flavorful and dough is to die for. Service from both ladies with smile and engaging interaction. Catalina was awesome. All her recs were spot on. Chix wings were juicy and cooked perfect.. dipping sauces...DELICIOUS!! Get more than one flavor. I will be back again!! Clean and inviting sports bar vibe . Full bar yay!! read more

This is the quintessential neighborhood Italian restaurant. Without all the fake Italian kitsch. Been going here for 5 years now and have not once had a bad meal. And have not once been in an empty restaurant. Couples young and old, families, softball teams, work groups. And lots of TVs. I'm not a drinker, but the bar area always seems to be busy too, so they must be doing someth read more

Best pizza sauce is tasty not to spicy. Favorite is sausage with black olives, pasta is good size serving. Very friendly service.

First time trying. Ordered online, got an email that said it would be ready between 6:12-6:27, still waiting at 6:38. Not a good first impression. read more

This is one of my favorite places. A local place with a casual vibe. The wait staff is always super friendly and helpful. They have a great beer list and a full bar. Their bread "sticks" are served with incredible garlic butter. Everything is so good I can't pick a favorite-and I've tried a lot! read more

TLDR: racist owner, food is horrible with changed recipes Me and my wife have been long time customers of "bambino's" which we are not sure we can call it bambino's anymore and not in a good way. For the past 5-6 years that we've been coming here the food WAS always amazing but recently the new owner hired a new "head chef" who has taken the liberty to change all the recipes for the worst. Our pastas (spaghetti marinara and tortellini chef sauce) were completely different and absolutely disgusting than what we were used too. We also ordered a bowl of clam chowder which also tasted different and for the worst, not to mention the portion was cut in half and still for the same price. Next we had a very lovely talk with our server (not going to mention who as to not get them in trouble but the service was impeccable) but we found out that the new owner and new "head chef" have told the existing Latino kitchen crew to "learn more English" excuse me but why don't you learn more Spanish, after all America doesn't have a official language and to say that in 2024 is utterly disrespectful. The owner has also been noted to repeatedly yell at his kitchen crew but never to the head chef. Discriminatory and disrespectful much? also with the new chef, food takes way longer to come out and we've noticed very unsanitary things from him such as tasting multiple sauces WITH THE SAME SPOON and never washing it. Also long dirty hair. Never in my 45 years of being on this planet have I experienced such a pathetic downfall from a restaurant due to a new owner who is inexperienced in the restaurant industry and him bringing his personal political views into his business. Farewell "bambino's concord" you will be missed. read more

Nice place . Good vibes fresh food. Awesome. Will come again. Wait time minimum. Good location.

Great food!! Friendly service. Seemed to take a while to get our food; longer than it should have. The interior surprises you; much nicer on the inside than you expect. All-in-all a good experience. read more

The fact that you don't deliver on Sunday or Monday is absolutely ridiculous. Get it together. Sunday and Monday are the number one days that no one wants to Cook. Guess I'll take my business elsewhere read more

This is a great neighborhood Italian restaurant. Everything on the menu that I have tried has been fantastic! Prices are decent. Service is good. Pizza is great! This place never disappoints. read more

The homemade bread and pasta dishes are so so good. The staff is always friendly and service is great. The drinks are also strong and well made. I like this place a lot! read more

A great Italian restaurants in the East Bay. Pizza is great, the crust is not soggy which is a plus. Sauce is neutral, and cheese is plentiful. My son liked the chicken parm and the bolognese cream sauce ravioli was very flavorful. Yes its in a strip-mall which I questioned at first glance but the inside is spacious. Will definitely go back to try out their other dishes. read more

I live 5 mins from Bambinos. I ordered a medium Bambinos special pizza. The Grease had soaked through the cardboard box before I got home. The pizza was drowning in grease. I ate one piece and had to throw the away. Never again! read more

I've gone here over the years infrequently. We'll I've been coming in more frequently and really enjoying it. The only thing better than the Bambino Special pizza (thin crust), is their staff. Everyone is very helpful, friendly and always smiling. They have a great selection of beer and recommend coming in for NFL football on Sunday and enjoy $5 pints. I will be there tonight and enjoy $5 pints on their Thursday special. Thanks again BAMBINOS this place is awesome read more

ordered a large special came out of the oven hot to go a little soggy. Had to pan fry it make it crispy and it was good.

Great food, great service, nice establishment ! If you ever want some good Italian food look no further ! read more

Bambino's - Chicken and salmon fettuccine - Italian Near Me - Concord, California

My favorite find in Concord! Homemade, delicious pizza and salads. I ordered take out and I was so pleased to get a pizza that wasn't shiny with oils, but still gorgeous! The topping ratios were spot on and the crust reminded me of my mom's pizza crust recipe. Can't think of a bad thing to say about this food. read more

Came in to grab some chicken wings and so glad I did! The order was ready for pick up as soon as I got there. The wings are so good and crispy alone! I got sauce on the side. Will definitely come back to sit down and eat. read more

I've been to this place 3 times. All 3 times, we enjoyed the food, which I can go into a bit later. The ambiance, depending on where you sit, can be relaxing or lively. If you sit closer to the bar, it can get loud, but I personally enjoyed the energy. If you sit further away, on the left side of the restaurant, it's more quiet and peaceful, but not bad at all. This could have also been because of the times we went here. The service, when we sat at a table by the bar, was excellent. The waitresses were friendly and approachable, the food arrived quickly, and they were on top of our refills and getting the table cleared. The one time we sat on the left side, perhaps because we sat by the corner, the service was terrible. It took about half an hour for just the water, the appetizers were only somewhat warm, he got things off of the table when asked, but refills (for just water) took a while.The food was still hot when it arrived, but service was slow, overall. I think it could've been an exception to the otherwise excellent service, but If we go again, we'll be sitting closer to the bar, as the service there was incredible both times we sat there. The to-go food, which we've ordered once before, still had the same amount of portions, and was equally delicious. The group favorite was the gnocchi with Alfredo sauce. read more

We had no idea what we were walking into - but the food here is very good! We're glad we found this place. A younger me would've come here with friends and watched the games on the big screens in here, with all the finger food and entrees this place has to offer. Definitely check it out! We had the eggplant parm, pesto gnocchi, and the kids had a ravioli and fettucine alfredo. Yum! read more

I really enjoy this restaurant whenever we dine in or takeout. I usually get the chicken piccata. Their pizza is awesome as well. I recommend this place for some good food. The staff is friendly as well. read more

5 stars because JOSIE ROCKS Literally a tower of split checks and she handled it like a boss. It woulda been a definite YES from me. Most servers would not have even tried to pull that off. She handled our massive table like a frikkin pro. 10 Stars. read more

I recommend that anyone that is looking for great Italian food with amazing service go here and make sure to ask for Lina! My favorite is the cannelloni.. but it us all great and the chicken wings are off the hook.. thank you Lina being so awesome especially with the kiddos. read more

In my opinion other Pizza is not that great, but they do excel in the pastas. I could just not be a fan of the bread or dough that they use.

Walked in for a late lunch. Very warm welcoming from the staff and was told to sit anywhere. The staff made me and my partner feel very welcomed. Water was brought over, and then the server explained some things on the menu and took our drink orders. The food came out quick. There was a slight problem with the food but the staff immediately rose to the occasion and took care of the issue. Overall the place is clean, and great for family gatherings and small parties. They have a full bar and good drink specials. The staff is friendly and polite. Would definitely recommend the pizza here. read more

Great service and the food was good. It's not too crowded and it's family friendly. There are a few pizza and pasta options to choose from.

Wanted to try this place for the first time and the person taking the order on the phone sounded like they didn't know the menu and didn't speak clearly, just heard mumbling (the background noise was clearer). I then asked what were my options for pastas and they didn't know what was available. Because of this, it wasn't a good first experience. I'm sure the food is good but first impressions with customer service wasn't good read more

The teenage servers stand around a lot. We were the only customers seated in the dining room. We were given menus, not offered anything else. Decided and placed our menus aside. Sat and talked for about ten minutes. Another couple came in, so that's two couples in a rom of 20 tables with 3 servers standing behind the counter who are socializing...the new couple are given menus and a minute later the server returns and asks to take their order, walks right past us to the counter and starts chatting again. Her coworker walks out and I'm thinking she's GOT to come take our order because the first signal we were ready (and they can plainly see us in a room full of no one and I can see exactly what they're doing this entire time through the mirrors) was when we put the menus down, the second signal was obviously when the second couple had their order taken first...nope, she walked past us and in the back. SO I guess Bambino's didn't need our business tonight. Opting for Rocco's. We really liked going to Bambino's for pasta and wine. Totally wasted our time tonight. RUDE read more

Bambino's Calzone is a sight to behold. I ordered the Medium (should have ordered the small) c. $14 & it was humongous. The flavor was Ok. I'll try the small next time & see if the flavor has improved. Service was very good & Ambiance good. read more
