    Italian sandwich
    Kaytlyn G.

    Didn't know what I wanted but the guy at the counter was nice enough to recommend a sandwich and boy was he right this is the best Italian sandwich I've ever had!

    Very awesome place to go to get a good pie! The taste and sauce are MMn good! So with that said, will you try this and enjoy!

    First off the manager was a really cool dude, introduced himself to me was curious why I chose this place to eat pizza, super kind and friendly I can see that they care about what customers think of their pizza so that's a plus....well the pizza was very good! Half Margharitta Pizza half Formaggio Combo both delicious! The crust super thin pizza, the pizza sauce different than I've had very tasty! I can also taste some garlic on the crust I believe really good stuff! The buffalo wings definitely a a great choice, try them paired with their homemade ranch was perfect! Super clean inside. If I'm ever in the area again I will be back Forsure! Thank you!

    #THANKYOUTHURSDAY Nothing beats a local, small business owner who is cranking out phenomenal, artesian-style pizzas! Can you say YUM! I have been hearing great things about Formaggio Pizza Express located across from Target in the El Dorado Hills Town Center. As well as reading some awesome Yelp reviews including two from fellow Yelp friends Joe Y. and Lillian W. (Both of them can be pretty picky about his/her food:). So I finally had to try it for myself. And, wow, I am sure glad I did! Because i was in the area, I popped in about 3 p.m., last week. Decided to order in person for pick up later that evening and to check things out. Steve was manning the counter. I soon discovered he is the owner too. Nice guy! He was more than happy to share some details about the business. He has been open for a about a year and hires a lot of family members to maintain overall high standards. And his standards include using the highest quality ingredients possible. His delivery range is approximately 4 to 5 miles but if someone is really insistent he may stretch it to 6 or 7 miles. I love how passionate he is about his restaurant! I ordered a 14-inch vegetarian doing half one type of veg and half the other! Not your typical veg either! Unique toppings for sure. Menu board photos included so you may read the pizza offerings and other food/beverage choices. I wanted a 5:15 p.m. pick up and that was not a problem! It was also nice to receive a text when my pizza was ready. Cool! (Btw: Online and phone ordering available.) Bottom line: GREAT pizza! Fresh, hot, perfect crust and a generous amount of toppings! Not a slice was left! Steve has created an affordable take out or delivery, awesome high quality food niche much needed in our area. And for that I am grateful. He also offers a 10% Yelp check-in discount. Woohoo! Stop by and say hi to Steve and experience some really top-notch pizza AND service! As well as that generous "thank you" discount too! Welcome to the hood Steve! Will definitely see you soon.

    Cheesy breadsticks. Couldn't get a photo before the kids in the household dug in haha.

    I've ordered here for delivery a couple of times now, and I've been happy with their service. By far, my favorite item I've gotten from them is their margherita pizza! I love the whole slices of thin tomato, and they top it with dried Italian herbs, it's so yummy! The ranch here seems to be made in-house, I'm a fan of it. I always order a cheese pizza when I order here, and the cheesy breadsticks, both of which I find to be pretty standard. I actually find the breadsticks to be on the plain, drier side but they're a big hit for the kids in the household. If you're a fan of margherita pizzas, definitely try Formaggio's take on it! Eventually I do want to try their Armenian combo, since that seems to be another popular pizza of theirs and something else from their starters, probably jalapeno poppers.

    The pepperoni pizza medium 12"

    The FOOD IS EXCELLENT!!!! The service is so friendly and welcoming and the pizza taste so good is a perfect amount of everything and it comes with ranch!! The place was very clean and well decorated.

I believe I found them thru Yelp while looking around at cities on the way back to SJ. We walked in and easily got a table. The space is pretty big. I was worried I may be too dressed down. I was in athleisure and a comfy sweatshirt, but there were people in shorts and t-shirts, so no real dress code here. Dinner started with a complimentary cheesy kinda garlicky bread. The hubs enjoyed that. The scallops were an app. A lil dry. I think due to the way they seared it. But it was a good size with three scallops. The house salads were a nice intro into our mains. A good portion for a an inclusion. My pasta was huge. Plenty of seafood and sauce. And it was nice and creamy which was what I was craving. The hubs sole was fine. I'm not a huge lemon caper person, but it was a good temp. I don't believe the broccoli was sauteed in anything so it's just seemed veg. I like broccoli by itself, so this was fine with me. Nice impromptu stop on the way home. REVIEW #4038

The service has never been better and I highly recommend the 60 Day Dry-Aged Grilled CheeseBurger. Alexa and Nick were a beacon in the light during the great shut down of 2020. They kept the portions the same and the love and kindness pouring out of the doors every time my husband or I wasted another mask, I mean risked our lives to come into contact with those we know and appreciate in our lives. I had to slow my visits to focus on health for a few years but on those fleeting evenings where I dared to eat out I always chose Milestone for their home town family atmosphere and delicious food. Servers have come and moved on over the years and it was a pleasure to interact with each one. Last year, Milestone celebrated its 10th anniversary and it was exciting to see several former employees return to celebrate. To anyone reading this. Be kind to your servers, remember these are your friends, neighbors, and the kids of your neighbors. They take care of this community and elevate our taste buds. This restaurant would not have the feelings it does when you walk in the door if the tenured staff were not around all these years to make sure you and your friends are taken care of and served with a smile on their face. Those skills don't come easily. I want to give Alexa and Nick a huge thank you for investing in this community, and everyone you come in contact with.

We wrapped up with a lemon dessert that added a bright, refreshing note to finish the meal. We sat outside which made for a relaxing setting.

Just before noon we were seated right away but it took several minutes before our server actually showed up. I noticed the ambiance was dark and hasn't changed AT ALL over the past 10-15 years. It is showing (and smelling) it's age and really needs a freshening up to a clean and modern take on Italian decor. Outdoor seating is available and the restaurant is in a well maintained shopping area near a grocery store. We loved seeing the fresh made bread coming out of the oven which is served with an oil/vinegar dip; however, the bread was doughy in the middle and became inedible. The Fettucini Alfredo for $25 was meh. The pasta was gummy and the sauce needed A LOT of salt, pepper and extra parmesan to amp up the flavor. The Penne with sausage was good with full flavored red sauce. And the pizza and other dishes that went by looked delicious but I based on this trip I am not sure we'll be back.
