Does anyone know if we can make reservations? Thank you in advance

They are not currently taking reservations.

How come when I ordered the capellini pomodora with shrimp the price for the shrimp add-on is $6 online when the printed receipt said $4? I paid $2 more when ordered online than what it said on the printed receipt.

They have pricing discrepancies between online and the menu and the system that generates the bill. Ordinarily this would be a huge problem for a store but the restaurant does nothing to fix it. See my review a long time ago that complained about…

Hi Julie, What's the back room capacity? I'm looking for a restaurant that can accommodate 130.

Probably no more than 40 people in the back room and that would be tight. Vince's Spaghetti in Ontario has private rooms that can accommodate the number of people you are looking for and their Italian food is very good.

Is the pasta hand made or dry?

Unfortunately, we do not make our pasta in house! On occasion we do make the gnocchi, but most we purchase as we do not have the space to lay out the pasta when making it from scratch!

How is their catering?

Legit! Just ask to speak with the owner Julie and she will make sure you're taken care of.

AMBIANCE 5.5/10…read more After spending way too long trying to decide what to eat, we finally settled on seafood boil and landed on The Big Catch because of their all-you-can-eat option. Walking in, our first impression wasn't great the building looked a little run down. Once inside, though, the vibe improved. It had a rustic sports bar feel with TVs everywhere, an open bar, and a seafood station. Nothing fancy, but not terrible. EXPERIENCE 7/10 The service was one of the better parts of the visit. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and took the time to answer our questions and recommend a few items. The food took a little while to come out. BTW there's a 90 minute limit after we were seated and the second round of our seafood took 30 minutes to come out (they apparently forgot our order) and they proceeded to tell us we had last call right after our second round of food barely got to the table. Not sure if that's done on purpose but we really didn't really appreciate that. Overall though, the staff definitely made the experience better. THE FOOD 5/10 Here's where things started to fall apart. The first all-you-can-eat platter came with two snow crab clusters, 1/2lb crawfish, 1/2lb mussels, 1/2lb peeled shrimp, plus unlimited sides. One thing that caught us off guard and maybe we just missed it on the menu is that after your first round, you can no longer order the snow crab or peeled shrimp. That was disappointing since those ended up being the best seafood options on the table. The snow crab was solid, and the peeled shrimp were surprisingly good the texture was crunchy and we didn't get any fishy smell or flavors. Everything after that... not so much. Round two included whole shrimp, clams, and scallops. The portions were noticeably smaller, and almost everything tasted like it had been frozen for too long. The crawfish lacked freshness, the whole shrimp had the same issue and were mushy without the initial crunch additionally the shrimp was hard to peel which makes us think that it was POSSIBLY reheated, and the scallops were tiny with a strong fishy flavor that made them hard to enjoy. Even the House/Cajun seasoning didn't do much to save it. It was too oily and honestly just tasted like salt, there was no spiciness either and we got the hot flavor. Ironically, the sides ended up carrying the meal. The cucumber salad was fresh and crunchy, which balanced out some of the heavier seafood, and the sweet potato fries were honestly one of our favorite things we ordered. And one last thing... somehow even the water tasted off. What We'd Order Again Snow Crab Clusters Peeled Shrimp Fish Taco Sweet Potato Fries Cucumber Salad Sausage Corn Skip These Whole Shrimp Clams Mussels Scallops Crawfish House/Cajun Seasoning Cajun Fries Cajun Wings Boiled Egg Water Final Rating If you're going for the all-you-can-eat seafood, don't expect premium quality. The first round is decent, but once the crab and peeled shrimp are off the table, the meal drops off pretty quickly. Would we come back? Definitely not. We ended up paying 90$ for 2 people which you can argue is good since it's an AYCE seafood meal but afterwards after speaking to the waiter we found out the shrimp and crawfish was indeed frozen that along with all the other disappointing food doesn't make us feel like it was worth the money. Overall Gassington Rating: (5/10)

The prices were comparable to other similar places but this place also offers all you can eat (except holidays) but we did not do this as we did not have the appetite. Plenty of parking and close to Ontario Mills. Staff were very friendly. Restaurant could use a facelift in some areas like the restroom but overall relatively clean. We ordered 2lbs medium spice house seasoned whole shrimp with corn and an egg, cucumber salad, and Cajun fries. The cucumber salad has a soy/vinegar sauce. We ordered it mainly to cut the butter/salt from the other stuff, it was decent, there was a little bitterness from the cucumber. The shrimps were nice and plump, only 1-2 were overdone at the bottom of the bag. The flavor was tasty, though I would have liked chunks of garlic in the bag to enhance more flavor. The basil was different than most places we've frequented, a welcomed surprise. Although we ordered medium spice, I think it was more on the mild side. The Cajun fries had a nice bite to them, but were simply fries with seasoned salt/Cajun seasoning on top...I've had better but they went well with the shrimps. Corn was sweet and egg was fine.

Yum!!

Our usual order is 1lb of shrimp and 1lb of mussels, and we've always been happy with it. This time, we decided to try the Combo #2 because we wanted to add crab legs.

I can't prove it, so I can only share our experience, but it honestly felt like there were fewer than 15 shrimp in the bag. For the first time ever, we finished our meal and were still hungry afterward. Based on this experience, I wouldn't recommend ordering the combo bag. Not only did it seem like there was significantly less food, but with all the ingredients piled together, some items ended up overcooked. We were really disappointed because we've had consistently good experiences with multiple locations here over the years. Hopefully this was just an off day, but we'll be sticking with ordering the seafood separately next time.

HOUSE PAN ROAST It tasted exactly what was expected. A creamy tomato soup consistency and flavor. Got level 2 or 3 for spice level. I wanted more of that creamy flavor, not spice. Any higher than 3 would be Tabasco level spice and up. Deliciously filled with shrimp, chopped scallops, small crab meat. I could taste the crab meat, which was all sitting at the bottom of the bowl. The scoop of jasmine rice with the creamy pan roast was comfort on another level. Got the small size, but it is enough for me. I do wish there were more shrimp and scallops and crab in the pan roast. I felt the scallops and crab were chopped too small and wished there was a bit more. But still I enjoyed the pan roast and would get it again. As an appetizer and accompaniment to the house pan roast, they bring a basket with three sliced breads and a side of butter. It's a light, soft bread with a bit of sour flavor. Didn't like it. I would have preferred dinner rolls. CUSTOMER SERVICE I arrived 1 hr before lunch closing time. It closes at 2:00pm and then re-opens for dinner at 5:00pm. But service was good! Only one server, but she checked back with everyone and all around better than most places I've been at recently. Lots of people came in 30-40 mins before closing time.

Hey Jackson, Instead…read moreof giving me an imaginary prize for being relentless, I would much rather appreciate your business taking accountability for the really poor service I had to experience in order to get a basic refund as a result of a mistake that was clearly from your restaurant. I can definitely be more upfront about my dietary needs moving forward when ordering, but even your employee admitted over the phone that chicken is not automatically part of the item that I ordered. If your staff wanted to add chicken to an item that should be seafood only, perhaps they should have asked if I was okay with that. After communicating with your employee about my concerns, I realized that the mistake on the food was secondary compared to the horrendous service I experienced when I shared my concerns. In your reply, you failed to mention anything regarding customer service that I mentioned, so let me say these facts again. I was hung up on several times over the phone, ignored multiple times when I showed up in person the next day, pressured to sign a claims release in order to get the refund, then was told I was an inconvenience to your business. Another fact is I lost my appetite after tasting your food yet was essentially called a liar when I came in the next day because I didn't appear sick to your employee. I cannot believe that is how your employee was allowed to treat a customer and I honestly hope you had a serious conversation with them. For the record, I was signed out of my main account for several months and did leave a review on a temporary account. Once I gained access to my main account, the review on my temporary account got deleted because that account got deleted. I operate on only one account and needed to re-write any reviews that got deleted. Looks like someone reported my review for your business, so I did revise it to better follow yelp's guidelines. Therefore, it is absolutely not an exact duplicate of the previous review. The real impact here is not only the loss of appetite, but also how I was treated after I raised concerns. It really was one of the most horrendous experience with restaurant staff. I will never again feel comfortable stepping inside your restaurant that is careless enough to scoop an item that was already made with chicken in it instead of making a fresh one with only seafood then try to pressure a customer to sign a claims release to protect yourselves. Nice try, but I'm not falling for that and neither should anyone else.

If you're in search of an authentic Italian dining experience, look no further than Cannataro's! This hidden gem has completely changed my perception of Italian cuisine. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm ambiance and the enticing aroma of freshly prepared dishes. One dish that absolutely blew me away was the **Fettuccine**. The creamy sauce was perfectly balanced and coated the fettuccine beautifully. Each bite melted in my mouth, making it clear that this isn't your average Alfredo; it's a masterpiece! Another standout was the **Calamari**. Cooked to perfection, it was tender and so flavorful, with just the right amount of crunch. Served with a zesty marinara sauce, it was an excellent start to our meal that had us wanting more. The **Stuffed Peppers** were another highlight. Bursting with flavor and generously filled with a blend of cheeses, herbs, and spices, they made for a delightful surprise. They were hearty yet light enough that I could still taste everything else we ordered. Finally, we couldn't resist the **Sampler Plate**, which gave us a taste of various house specialties. It was like a tour of Italy on one plate! Each item was delicious, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients and authentic preparation. Every dish we tried was expertly crafted, and the service was impeccable. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring our dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary. Cannataro's is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates exceptional Italian food. I can't wait to return and try more of their delightful offerings! Treat yourself--you won't regret it! read more

We recently visited this Italian restaurant with a large party, for my Aunts 50th birthday and overall it was a mixed experience. Let's start with the food, because that's where they shine. The complimentary garlic bread was good and freshly made. The garlic knots were honestly some of the best parts of the meal. The calamari was flavorful and cooked well. I'm not usually a mushroom lover, but the stuffed mushrooms surprised me, they were packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. I ordered the steak with grilled veggies, and it definitely had great flavor. The salmon fillet with veggies was amazing and one of the standout dishes at the table. The Alfredo Supremo (basically chicken Alfredo with broccoli) was pretty good the sauce was lighter than I prefer (I'm more of a creamy Alfredo girl), but still enjoyable. The pesto was okay, I've had better but their pizzas were very delicious and everyone loved the cheesy garlic bread. Now for the downside, the service. We were a big party, so I want to give some grace in case they were short-staffed or especially busy. However, it took about an hour just to get waters and be asked if we were ready to order. Our server was difficult to find, and we often had to get up and ask for things ourselves. Some of the staff seemed a bit irritated, and unfortunately it didn't feel like the most welcoming or friendly experience. Overall, the food was decent and had some real highlights. I would be willing to give it another try, hopefully on a less hectic day, because the flavors were definitely there. read more

My husband and I have found our go-to spot, and it's like stepping into a comforting embrace. This Italian gem radiates warmth, and Julie, who we assume is the owner, plays a pivotal role in making every visit special. She moves around the restaurant selflessly, ensuring everyone has a great time. The menu here is a treasure trove of delights, and you can't go wrong with any choice. Every dish tastes like a comforting home-cooked meal. Our absolute favorite is Julie's wedding soup - a bowl of pure joy. The warm, watery broth, filled with small meatballs, chicken, and vegetables, is an instant mood lifter. The servers are not just nice; they're incredibly attentive, providing a warm welcome that sets the tone for a delightful dining experience. The selection of wines, including their house wine, adds a perfect touch to the meal. However, the only hiccup is the wait time. We frequent this place, and more often than not, we find ourselves waiting for 30 minutes to an hour. It would be fantastic if they either took reservations or managed to shorten the wait. Despite this, the overall experience is so delightful that we keep coming back. This Italian restaurant has truly become a cherished part of our dining routine. read more

The low rating solely because of the poor service for a take out order. I completely understand that they are overwhelmed and I am trying to support local business. They are not picking up their phone. We are forced to order usinf an app that charge minimal fee. We are ok with that. It was supposed to be ready between 6-6:10 pm. I got there and the place was chaos. Not sure who to talk to. They started to serve other customers who came after me. I am still holding my patience. Then I asked the Manager or owner about my take out order. She said it's here and that they are processing it and I should have a sit to wait. So, I waited. Then, I saw another customer who came in much later then I do, she must have waited like 5 minutes and got her take out order. That is just not right. I got my order like almost 6:30 pm. I have waited nearly 30 minutes. I understand that they are overwhelmed, but jeez please get some organization in the restaurant. To add, the employee does not seem to care. So, that just made me so mad to write this review. Sorry Cannataro's, we love your food but you need to get your service up. read more

First time coming here, we ordered sampler appetizer, the Calamari was overcooked, squeezing lemon on it didn't help, fried zucchini looked like it was fused together like clumps of grease, while breaking them apart the inside looked old and gross. Mozzarella sticks were just as bad, I've never seen cheese soak up that much grease before. I ordered the linguini pescatore and we'll what can I say the seafood was overcooked and the light marinara wine sauce tasted like canned tomato sauce. My wife ordered the shrimp ravioli and she said the shrimp was overcooked and half the plate was overloaded with salt. Overall the glasses of water and bread basket they brought us before we ate were good. Just wanna say Congratulations to the cooks here. You guys have successfully proved that you CANNOT cook seafood or Italian food. The only positive thing I can say is that our waitress was sweet even though she forgot to bring my drink untill the food came out and also she discounted 50% off the appetizer, we ate less than half of it. Needless to say we will not be returning here again. read more

We recently discovered Cannataros and it has quickly become one of our favorites! The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. Our favorite waitress (Julie) is the best!!! We almost never go out for Italian (because I can make it at home) and you wouldn't catch me dead in an Olive Garden, but this place is the exception. The food is better than homemade. My favs on the menu are the baked eggplant parm (I recommend ordering the sauce on the side) This is absolutely the best I've ever had! I am also addicted to their meat sauce. I like it best on the angel hair pasta with a couple of (outstanding) meatballs. Hubby always gets the sampler platter (lasagna, chicken parm and linguine alfredo). All 3 selections are delish and it always fills him up (not easy to do!). Pizzas here are awesome too. The prices are very reasonable and with internet discounts its downright awesome. We have to drive 30 minutes to get there but it's well worth the drive. Definately a hit! read more

Cannataro's is hands down the best Italian food I've had in a long time. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, inviting, and authentic. The service was outstanding--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The pasta was perfectly al dente, the sauces were rich and balanced, and you can truly taste the quality ingredients in every bite. The portions were generous without sacrificing presentation. What really stood out was the consistency across everything we tried--appetizers, entrees, and even dessert were all top tier. It's clear the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. Whether you're going for a casual dinner or a special night out, this spot delivers. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends and family. If you're craving real Italian food done right, this is the place to go. You won't be disappointed. read more

My wife and I ordered their alfredo for our wedding reception. We were nervous. If one thing hinges on how well any reception goes, it's the food. When the time came, we tore away the tops, still warm to the touch, and stared down at what we hoped would be the alfredo to end all alfredo. At first blush, it looked like any pasta. My wife and I, however, have loved Italian food, and specifically fettuccine alfredo, all our lives. We've had it just about everywhere we go, so you can imagine our delight once we took that first bite, to discover the quality within. The sauce was creamy, with flavor that lingered at the roof of our mouths. The noodles were the perfect texture. It felt like we were discovering our love for the dish all over again. We highly recommend Cannataro's to anyone in the Southern California area. They made our wedding special, and we appreciate that more than a review can say. read more

If you're looking for authentic Italian food, this is the place! From the moment we walked in, Cassandra welcomed us and it felt like we were having dinner at a family member's house. The oldies music playing in the background created such a warm, cozy atmosphere that instantly made us feel at home.

I was particularly excited to try the lasagna, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. It lacked the rich flavor I was anticipating, and I found it somewhat disappointing. On a brighter note, I also ordered the salmon piccata, which was quite good! The fish was cooked well, but I felt there was a bit too much seasoning for my taste, which overshadowed the natural flavors of the salmon. Overall, while I enjoyed the salmon, the lasagna didn't meet my expectations. I might give Cannataro's another try in the future, as I'm curious about their other dishes! read more

We had dinner there Saturday night and while the food was fine I feel I have to comment on the horrible wait staff. The waitress who helped us was the exception. If you must go make certain you get the brunette with the LONG pony tail below her waist. I tried to ask another waitress to help us and she acted like I was dirt and she couldn't be bothered. Seriously, our waitress was the only human being on the premises. It was not just the universal nasty attitude although certainly that was pervasive from the dark haired young man at the front who refused to acknowledge me to the entire staff.... but they were actually unkind. You will be treated better at McDonld's for a lot less money. read more

Let's start out talking about first impressions, walked through the door and stood there waiting for a greeting or something watching waitresses walk around, but no one saying anything. Next the table service was great and our waitress was prompt and friendly. Next, we ordered an Antipasto salad which was great. For the main course a Cannataro's Special pizza; Pepperoni, Italian sausage, meatballs, fresh mushrooms, onions, bell pepper & garlic, this was just okay, the toppings were good and the crust was very flavorful, but it just lacked that I have a craving for a Cannataro's pizza. We'll be back to try other dishes and then decide if it's a place we'll want to come back to. read more

All that i can really tell you about this resturuant is that you are at home!!!! When you are there you are part of the family. Our family eats here about 3 times a week and I have never had a bad expeience . I was reading the review about the credit card incedent what about the responsibilty of the credit card holder ???I If I didn't know where my crdit card was lost first thing i would have done was cancel it to to be safe yah maybe the server might have saved it for you but for how long is it their responsibity ????I know I would never hold anybody responsible for my owre responsibilty. All I have to say is that Cannataros is is the best read more

Suzie was the best waitress we've ever had at Canatarro's, minus the family who runs it. From entering the premises, we were greeted with a smile and promptly told if we would have a seat or need to wait. Suzie immediately came and asked for our drink order followed by a basket of their scrumptious bread! Although we've been here several times, this by far has been our best visit. We are grateful to the new employee who has a business sense and adds a wealth of experience with customer service to the experience. Kudos to you Suzie for creating such a great environment and experience. read more

What a DUMP!!! The quality of the food was unacceptable. Cheap and from frozen packages. I asked to speak to the supervisor/owner. Guess she was too busy chatting up on personal calls. And get this... The owner had an attitude!!! Never ever again, and I will share my experience with anyone that will listen. Chef Boy R Dee canned food is more flavorful than this joint. Anyone that recommends this place must not know real Italian cuisine. I've noticed the employees rate and praise the restaurant. Talk about foul play and cheating.... False ratings and manipulative comments. read more

Cannataro's NEVER fails to impress! The warmth and hospitality you feel when you walk in is almost like coming home. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for a romantic dinner or a family celebration. And the food? Bomb! Each dish has authentic Italian flavors, from their savory pasta dishes to their mouthwatering pizzas straight from the oven. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, always ready with recommendations to suit your taste. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a truly unforgettable dining experience! read more

I truly love coming back to this place, my second time visiting south California, was here on Friday and I was feeling like having authentic Italian food and Cannataros food is so welcoming and comforting, but what really keeps me returning is the service, especially from Eli, attentive, kind, and always makes sure everything is perfect without ever feeling rushed. Being served by him genuinely makes the experience even better. This is one of those spots where you feel taken care of every single time. Highly recommended! read more

Nevertheless, as I savored the dish with the sauce, the clams became more pronounced and tantalizing. Regrettably, the absence of wine flavor was noticeable.

We had an amazing dinner at Pizzaioli, but the person who truly made our experience unforgettable…read morewas Zoey. Our daughter has celiac disease and is on a very strict gluten-free diet, so eating away from home can sometimes be stressful. Shortly after we arrived, our daughter noticed a mint displayed near the bar area where Zoey was working and politely asked her, "Excuse me, is this mint gluten-free?" Zoey immediately smiled and told her she would find out. What really impressed us was that she didn't guess or simply tell us what she thought--she actually went to the back of the restaurant to check. A few minutes later, she came back smiling and told our daughter that she could absolutely have the candy and that it was safe for her. It may sound like such a small thing, but for a child with celiac disease--and for parents who are constantly checking ingredients and worrying about what is safe--it meant so much. And the most amazing part? Zoey wasn't even our server. We were seated outside on the patio, but she still took the time to help our daughter and make her feel comfortable. As we talked more, Zoey shared that her niece also has celiac disease. Suddenly, we understood why she was so caring and knowledgeable. She told us how much her niece loves Pizzaioli's gluten-free pasta, explained some of the gluten-free options, and even took time to recommend other places in the area where our daughter could safely eat during the following days of our stay. That went far beyond simply doing her job. It was genuine kindness. We also want to recognize our actual server, whose name we unfortunately didn't catch. She was wonderful. We were seated on the patio and couldn't get a good view of a game we wanted to watch on TV, and she went out of her way to help relocate us to better seats so we could enjoy the game with our dinner. She took excellent care of us throughout the evening. And the food? Absolutely delicious. We loved it so much that we even ordered another meal to take with us for the road! But when we think back on our evening at Pizzaioli, we'll remember Zoey most. Zoey, thank you for taking the time to care for our daughter even though we weren't your table. Your kindness, your smile, and the way you immediately understood our concerns made our family feel incredibly welcomed. What may have seemed like a few small gestures to you made a very big impression on us. Pizzaioli is very lucky to have you. We will absolutely be back the next time we're in the area.

The servers were extremely intentive and always asking us if we needed more coffee or extra water for it to be so packed and the fact that they were so welcoming and attentive, says a lot about the restaurant. We sat outside and ate on the back patio, which was perfect to enjoy the sunshine. There were tons of beautiful plants and butterflies all around while we were enjoying our food. They also make sure to include fans at each table, so that flies won't get to your food. Our breakfast itself was amazing. No notes I will absolutely be back and I'm mad that I haven't gone back sooner to be honest.
