My wife has an appointment at Lather this afternoon so we decided to have lunch at Italian homemade…read morecompany near Lather. We had a great time to find some new hand care products @Lather and went to discover an authentic italian restaurant which lots of Yelpers mentioned. My wife said, we have to order at the front, then they bring the foods to the table but the owner took our orders, and brought the foods so fast just like other Italian restaurant. We love meat lasagna, pasta w bolonese sauce, and some flat breads like appetizer pizza. We ordered 3, lasagna, tagliatelle bolonese, flat bread sandwich called Cassone w sausage, bell pepper, onions. I had some italian red wine per glass ($14). First, I loved so much my lasagna and kept eating until finish my entire portion. I give 10 stars. My wife's pasta, she said pasta is too thick, might be on purpose? She likes soft, thin texture handmade tagliatelle. For the first time, we ordered flat bread sandwich. The sandwich flavor was good, but not the dough for flat bread. Well, we tried here for the 1st time after shopping. Today was almost 81 this afternoon. Hot and humid.....unluckily AC was broken so he opened the entrance door. One big fly bothered a lot annoying us eating the foods. And so hot inside restaurant. Overall, I liked my lasagna a lot, not really tagliatelle bolonese, nor the flat bread sandwich. If AC was working during lunch time. We felt much comfortable to enjoy our foods. One thing, I loved the red wine but the portion was not enough for $14. Even my wife said, not much for this price. I got 2 glasses of italian red wine, not enough. The view was great ocean side from the patio. This is a strong point eating here for the view. My wife saw the live pasta cooking show, a chef made the pasta, stretching the pasta dough in the kitchen....great show! Fun! Hopefully AC runs well especially hot summer season, the portions of pastas and wines might be more generous for the future.

He mentioned that many customers come in for a quick bite and the portions of the lunch special seem adequate for that. Hubby got chose the meat lasagna that comes with a side salad. I wanted something plant based that day so vegetable lasagna and side salad was for me. Buonissimo which is very delicious in Italian! From my photos, you can see that they have various items for sale such as wine, oils, ground coffee, pasta and more. They also offer pasta classes Delightful Italian food for sure. You can find them by the marina side on the main level. Grazie, Italian Homemade!

They have a variety of different pastas on the menu, but me and my husband's go to's are the uni pasta and the mentai cream pasta. If you're a spicy food lover like me, do yourself a favor and drizzle on some of the chili oil that they have on the table. Each pasta also comes with bread and a side salad, which is a nice touch as well. I've always come here for weekend dinners and the wait hasn't been more than 10 minutes. Service is friendly and attentive. It is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking.

A small Japanese/Italian fusion establishment with little seating, but big flavor…read more We ordered 4 pasta dishes for the night, and while I didn't get to sample everything, what I did try was delicious. Each table has a chili oil that I strongly recommend you add, especially to the uni pasta as I found it heavily under-seasoned. All the noodles were al dente, and the dishes were served with bread and a small house salad. Our waiter did the best he could, but for some reason, the weekday we chose was a pretty busy day with a crowd outside the door. My biggest qualm with my experience was the portion size and the seasoning. Our party was still a bit hungry (or, at least I was) after the meal, and we found each dish to be a bit flat,, though the chili oil helped with that. Looking forward to my next visit, and will definitely order something different.

Staff was nice but our waiter was not super attentive, didn't ask if I wanted anything to drink aside from water, didn't ask for my main course so I will be surprised to see his choice i guess? update: he gave me the chicken, wasn't a huge fan of this, the sauce tasted similar to ketchup so it was basically just ketchup covered chicken :/ vegetarian section: my partner is vegetarian and emailed a week prior to our meal, she asked them about the vegetarian options for the prix-fix monday supper and we never heard back. Upon arrival we found that all the main courses are just substituted with cali flour. This wasn't a great option, but the cali flour itself was fine, just kinda sad that they didn't have a better option for vegetarians. after some thought, moved this down to a 2 star experience.

Had an opportunity to try North Italia again. We have been fortunate that each time we've been…read morehere, service is great, good quality is great, food choice has been spot on. I don't blame anyone but this visit, I think we made the wrong choice. This was my son's first visit and so we decided to order two different items and split it to give him the opportunity to try at least two menu items in one visit. We ordered the Sunday Night Lasagna and the Breakfast Rosa Pizza. The food tasted delicious, but my complaint was the pizza was very spicy. I can handle spice, but this had a kick that the spiciness would hit you in the back of your throat and make you cough uncontrollably because of the spice. It was annoying, but I managed to get through it and finish my share. The other issue about the pizza is it was not cut well. I think they rushed on trying to get it served, but I could not even pull it apart. The table knife couldn't even cut through the crust. That's just poor quality control on the person prepping the item for playing and getting it sent out to the table. As for the lasagna, the meat sauce was great, but our complaint was the portion size. It was thin and small. Some lasagna's I've hade in the past would be a four to five layer thickness. This was just two layers. The bottom pasta, a little bit of meat sauce and the top layer of pasta, with a little sauce on the top and some dollops of cheese. I think my next chance I get to go back again, I should try something different and hope it's a better food experience.

My husband and I decided to try it here for dineLA since they had a good pre-fixed menu…read more We were seated right away. I really liked the ambiance of the restaurant. It had a beautiful wall art decor towards the back where we were seated. From the dineLA menu, we ordered ceasar salad and cacio e Pepe arancini for our appetizer. For our entree, we ordered the house bolognese pasta and hot honey & prosciutto pizza. And dessert, we got tiramisu and chocolate gelato. I enjoyed the ceasar salad, although it did seem like a small portion. My husband and I shared the cacio e Pepe arancini. It was delicious. Crunchy and crispy on the outside, and nice soft texture on the inside. It pairs well with the pesto sauce provided. Although, it was a little bit too salty for our liking. The hot honey & prosciutto pizza was good. It was different than what we normally eat, so it was worth a try. It had a kick to it because if the hot honey. But our favorite of the meal was the house bolognese pasta! The texture and good of the pasta was on point! The sauce.... Exceptional! I really enjoyed the tiramisu as it is my favorite. The chocolate gelato was night and light and had bits of (I want to say) cacao nibs. Overall delicious meal! We received great service! Definitely coming back here to try their other food items!

My wife saw a FB posting of Deli News Pizza, advertising their $4.99 small pizza special (last…read moreTuesday of every month). Well...the next day was the last Tuesday of August, so we made plans to bring her mom for an informal dinner the next day, knowing that they supported dine-in. It was great. Deli News Pizza is located in the Los Altos Shopping Center (Trader Joe's and Five Below being two businesses that we frequent), so there was available parking in the large surface lot (so I was reminded that cars tend to drive a little too fast with so many pedestrians around). We intentionally came early (around 4 pm), since I had seen a picture for a $10 small pizza with unlimited topping special. Wasn't sure if that was still available (since I couldn't find a board advertising it), but the nice young man behind the counter, confirmed that it was, before 5pm. This is what I call the standard Domino's pizza style (puffy, thick around the edges - style), and tastes better when cooked a bit longer (which Dominos and Little Caesars never seems to do right). Well, they did it right here. We got the $5 pepperoni small 12", and also ordered the small 12" (got pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, tomato, pineapple), both of it asked for well done. Also got potato wedges ($4.99). The pepperoni came out first, and was OK...with not the greatest amount of cheese, but had been cooked crisp so really liked the crust and the crisped pepperoni. The combo came out later, and probably could have been cooked longer (the cheese wasn't browned much because of all the toppers)...but they didn't skimp on the toppings. I really liked how the green peppers and white onion were sliced really thin. The pineapple and mushrooms were canned (I think). I really liked the potato wedges...this was one time when the food actually looked better in person than on the on-line menu. They don't have a deep fryer, so these were baked and had been done long enough to get them really crispy on the outside. Super glad they took the time to do that. The three of us ended up eating half of each pizza and most of the wedges so probably could have fed another 2 - 3 people. We took the remainder home, and will freeze the pizzas for another day. Crazy good value for a under $30 meal. All the young folks working at Deli, were extremely nice, and made it just a very pleasant dining experience. They deliver the food to you, use reusable plates and there is no place to self-bus, so the tip line when paying by credit card was appropriate. Drinks are given behind the counter from a soda fountain, and they had no issues giving the two of us water (Mom got a small Coke for $1.99). They have bottles and cans of soda as well, along with draft beer. Yup...came at the right time for great value pizza. But it tasted pretty good too, and the service was top rate. Definitely great value, and a place to go out of the way for, when in the mood for cheap but tasty pizza, especially if the last Tuesday of the month.

We were seated quickly and ordered a bottle of wine. I wish it were possible to taste the wine before buying, there were a couple I had not had before and they looked amazing, but I'm not gambling 100 bucks on a wine I haven't tried. The wine we ordered was fine, not incredible but not horrible. We also ordered the bread, meatballs, and ribeye. The bread was the dish that stood out the most. It was great. The other dishes were fine. Not worth the money to me. The entire experience lacked soul. From service to food, just kind of fine. Our dishes came out on top of each other, we should have asked them to course them. So this experience was definitely not worth it, which is a shame. I was left feeling like this is a place that does not have exceptional food but does have very high prices and maybe that's to vet clientele ;)

Sammie took my order, but it would have been much better if she had engaged more with the customers and made us feel welcome.

I waited about 20 minutes for my coffee and around 30 minutes for all of the food after I finished placing my order. My friend and I have been to this restaurant before, but this visit was more disappointing than our previous experiences. I hope the service can improve because the food itself has potential.
