    This is such a cute restaurant in Upland. After an amazing massage session with Alejandra at Certified Hands (check out my review!), I was definitely hungry! I walked in through a door in the middle of the restaurant, and everyone was staring at me LOL. The server kindly told me the to-go entrance was near the patio on the left side of the building. The guy who took my order was super friendly and even shared the lunch special menu. I knew what I wanted and stuck to my plan. I think I must've looked at an old menu because the torpedo was listed at $12, but it's about $20 out the door. The meat was high quality, I love my veggies piled high but not so much here, and the bread was just okay. I'd definitely love to come back and try more of their offerings!

    Dolmeh is to die for! I always ask for extra lemon to drench it in. It's a habit.

    My family and I have been coming here for 25 years now. This family owned restaurant has always made us feel welcomed and at home when we visit. The food is always amazing. Today our server was a pleasant Brazilian young man that gave us excellent service. It was great getting to know him. We ordered hummus, and dolmeh, as appetizers. I had the Beef Soltan plate which comes with a skewer of filet mignon & koobideh kabob which is made with ground beef and lamb mixed with minced onions, and seasoned with salt and pepper. I asked for cherry rice as a side because it's my favorite. It was season to perfection as usual. Keep up the great work!

    Wow, this place is beautiful! I lived in upland a few years ago and had no clue about this place. Italian & Persian food in one spot, amazing. The lasagna is probably one of the best I've ever had. The bread that comes with hummus and cucumber dip? The best thing I've ever tried.

    Beef Soltani, pasta salad, yogurt and garlic dip!

    Everything was amazing, from food, to ambiance, from service to timing! Gabriel was our server, best server!

    Chicken Soltani with berry rice

    Best food in the Inland Empire. Service is excellent especially from Alaa and Eugenia. I went on a Saturday night, it was pretty packed. The newest room is a nice quiet area. I recommend the chicken soltani, kashk, fesenjun, and pizza. The Italian dishes are all pretty good as well.

    Spaghetti and Ravioli

    Wow the service was A+ thanks Diane / Dianna . Now for the fun park I am a True Meat lover but the chicken /vegetable broth. It was vegetable with chicken broth and I enjoyed every bit of it! I had the chicken and steak skewers and it was good to the last drop. The dessert tiramisu was homemade and you can taste the goodness. We were a party of four and everyone had something different. The lamb was tender and all of the dishes were well seasoned and served hot. We will be back! Nice fusion of Italian & Persian food.

    Side rice

    The place is nice and in the mountains which i like as a Texas native. We had Happy as our server and she was great and happy like her name lol. We got some bread and dips and these were very good. the Mast-o-Musir was my favorite and so addicting. The antipasto salad was not very good, the mozzarella used the same types of cheese they have on frozen pizzas. We got lots of plates but the lamb chop and the koobideh were my favorites, but the chicken was dry; i didn't enjoy it. The Gormeh sabzi tasted overcooked and burnt (talkh); the rice it came with was good though. For desserts we got the saffron ice cream which was a yummy treat, but the cream puffs felt frozen and not very good.

    Chicken shish
    Diego s.

    Had a great experience at this establishment! Having a reservation worked out perfectly, and we were attended to very quickly. They started us off with warm bread and butter, which was absolutely delicious. I had the chicken shish, and it was cooked to perfection. The chicken was juicy and full of flavor. The vegetables added an amazing balance, and the rice was so good I could have eaten it by itself. The restaurant was very clean inside. The only slight inconvenience was that there was just one single-stall restroom, so there was a bit of a wait to use it. Other than that, everything was really great. The gentleman, Emerson, was a wonderful host, making sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back to try the other plates!

    Do they make their meatballs with beef or do they add pork?

    Meatballs and all meat items are halal

    How is their meatball sandwich?

    Love it !!! Just get the Spaghetti and make it a dish !!!

    Do they serve beer or wine?

    Yes. They have beer and wine.

    Will you accommodate a group of 35, on a Sunday 1 pm?

    Yes. They have private room for party over 20 people. Buffet style is recomended for large party in Private room. Reservation is needed at least few days ahead.

    Hello, can anyone confirm it's fully Halal?

    No. Some Italian dishes appear to have pork.

    What's their vegan option? Separate grill from the animals bodies?

    They offer a very good seasoned vegetable skewer that comes with basmati rice. Their Dolmeh or Shrazi salad would also be vegan. Check with them re separate grill. Since this is a privately owned restaurant they can answer for themselves. I eat…

I went for dinner on Wednesday so the restaurant wasn't packed. As soon as you walk in you get git with that Italian restaurant smell (idk how else to describe it) so I was hopeful that it would be good. The restaurant is dimly lit so it creates an intimate atmosphere. Very cozy. Our server was friendly and helped me choose between two dishes I wanted. We started with bread service which includes a few different styles of bread along with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. For my entree I went with the clam linguine. It comes with chopped clams, garlic in a white wine sauce and also has a few whole clams in shell. It was so good. It was very "seafoody" which was just what I was craving. I also got to taste the carbonara, which was also very tasty. It had plenty of pancetta and the sauce was rich. Overall a good experience.

An amuse bouche prepared by the chef was also tasty. I was pleased with my dessert of Peach Tart A la Mode. And Blackberry Jasmine Iced Tea washed everything down well. Service by Christophe was very good, and we again appreciated the intimate and classy ambiance of the dining room. XXXX-1/2 stars overall!
