    Gnocchi in pink sauce
    Alison T.

    Cute spot with good Italian food. Usually not crowded with both indoor and outdoor seating. Great customer service. Hits the spot for everything Italian.

    Linguini alla pescatore
    Janney A.

    Literally just left & will be coming back soon to try their pizza! Such a cute little spot with outside and indoor seating. Very cozy and romantic. Perfect for a date night. The outdoor area is covered and has heaters. There's plenty of parking, it's in the CVS plaza. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a young lady. The decor transports you to a different place. You can see where they make the pizzas, which I can't wait to try. Our server recommended the Tuscany pizza. We were seated right away. Our server, Carlos, is the nicest, most attentive server ever. We loved him! Thank you for the awesome service, Carlos. He deserves a raise. He made us feel welcomed (they all did, but he was amazing), at home and answered our questions. I ordered the fettuccine al funghi con tartufi, it has mushrooms and truffle cream sauce. It was delicious. Im not sure if they make the pasta from scratch, but it certainly tasted like it. The sauce was just perfect, savory and creamy. I think adding chicken or shrimp would pair really well with this dish. Next time! My bf ordered the linguini alla pescatore. It has clams, scallops, shrimp and I think calamari with tomato sauce. It was good, I liked it. The portions are pretty decent. They also offer garlic bread. My bf never really eats the bread, but today he almost finished it Lol. It was warm, garlicky and not salty. They do have Coke products, A+ in my book! They also have beer and wine. No prosecco, or bubbles, but still love this restaurant.

    Cremini fettuccine pasta in cream sauce with truffle oil. Added chicken to this. Highly recommended.

    We stopped in again for dinner at this family-owned restaurant. They've been around for about 45 years and are a staple for Italian food in this community. I ordered the salmon and the others ordered the lasagne and linguine alla pescatore (seafood), paired with glasses of chianti wine. Everything was consistently delicious, cooked/flavored just right, and filling like last time. Highly recommend this venue for authentic Italian food.

    Stuffed Mushrooms
    Gen G.

    Out on a date night and decided to come here. We always order Renato's pizza for home occassions--husband keeps saying he grew up eating this-- but this is the first time I've tried dining in. The place has a quiet, elegant atmosphere..very Italian and my husband loves it. Service was friendly and very accommodating. I wasn't too happy with my gnocchi but I super enjoyed the Stuffed Mushrooms and our usual favorite Cheese Pizza. My husband savored his Penne Con Salsiccia.

    CALAMARI FRITTI

    Every time its fantastic! The calamari fab, the picata, the pastas. No complaints!!!

    Antipasto Salad Fettuccine Al Funghi with Truffle Cream Sauce

    Took the e-bike to Huntington Beach on this beautiful summer day. On the way home I was starving and decided to stop at Renato's for an antipasto salad and fettuccine Al funghi with chicken. Wow the service and food was awesome! Felt comfy eating in the outside patio and staff was very kind . Just the meal I needed after a long bike ride

    Stuffed mushrooms seasoned so well

    Hidden gem. Didn't not expect despite having bought take out from here long ago. Came to fine in and the indoor seating is hidden behind the wall where you walk in to pick up and pay. Beautiful mural on the wall and cute dining area. Service was attentive and pleasant. Meal was delicious and doesn't break the bank. Loved the pasta options and the stuffed mushroom appetizer. The dessert cannoli was fresh and decadent. Would definitely come back. Cute for a date night. Easy parking. Good portions. I don't have a negative thing to say other than to blame myself for not dining in sooner! Ps- restaurant does have good accommodations for wheelchairs (wide aisles) and tables that are of friendly height. No stairs or extra steps.

    Chicken Parmigiana
    Peter T.

    This great is great, especially when you consider an Italian restaurant that is surrounded in an Asian community full of Vietnamese restaurants. What's also fascinating is that I wasn't the only Vietnamese party on the day I went, so it should tell you something about this place. The food is great and the prices are decent, the free garlic bread is really good too.

    Such a cozy family owned restaurant! I came here with my office for lunch and they are so kind! The decor is so cute and everything we got was delish! Give it a try and support a family owned business when you're in the area!

    Side of meatballs and side of spaghetti was more than enough for 2

    Delish. Bustling indoor and patio dining. On top of dinner service. Tables are full for a reason and thankful we didn't need to wait. Soup of the day was clam chowder which was surprising. Calamari looked good.

    Eggplant Parmigiana
    Mai T.

    Delicious Italian food in Westminster! A restaurant where every customer is treated VIP. Staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and kind. Complimentary bread is addicting and every dish tastes homemade. The service was impeccable with perfectly timed refills and check-in from staff. The food portions are shareable and at unbelievably affordable prices! Imagine a place cheaper than Olive Garden but of the caliber of your Italian-born neighbor. Our party ordered individual plates and we each took home plenty for a second and maybe third meal. I can't wait to come back and try more! It was such a wonderful first experience and perfect for an intimate lunch date with the girls or a romantic date!

    Came to Renato's tonight for dinner with hubby. He had the eggplant parmigiana and I had the fettuccine alfredo. Hubby's dish was yummy the tomato sauce was really good. My dish was just ok. The complimentary bread was bland not garlicky or anything. Service was good a lot of waiters and people kept walking in and out. Didn't order a pizza but they did look pretty good ..next time.

    Gosh I Love living in southern Ca so many choices. I'm a Central Valley gal so choices were limited . So the bread was yummy, the house salad with vinaigrette , I asked for some fresh mozzarella cheese so good. We tried some pastas I don't recall name but Cannoli's Omg delish.

    Anybody know what the corkage fee was s here ? Thanks

    $17

    Are they opened today(on Easter)?

    Do they have outdoor dining / is the patio open and spaced out?

    Yes.

    Their number is not correct. Does anyone know their current phone number? Does their online order works?

    If you tried to call today, there is a good chance something happened to their phone line or the general Westminster area. My bf has ordered online in the past and today his call also could not go through.

    Do they have good spaghetti?

    Yes. All the food is good.

The standout for me was the Braised Short Rib--tender, slow-cooked to perfection, and paired with creamy garlic mashed potatoes that had the perfect texture. The Seafood Mafaldine was equally impressive, with a rich, flavorful sauce that was simply heavenly.

And rather than apologize for the inconvenience and offer a bag, he has the audacity to give me attitude and rude looks to me and my children and yells "why are you using that?! Use a bag! That box is only for corn dogs!" Like ok sir I didn't know you have fckn bags you didn't have them out in an appropriate place??? NOT TO MENTION: we came here for the corn dogs (which all the boxes are for but we couldn't use???) and they didn't even have any. NONE. No corn dogs at all.... We had to settle for their overpriced pastas . Yeah, if it wasn't for him being super rude, this review would have been a 4 or 5 stars simply because the girls were so nice & pasta was good . Other than that, if you don't want to be yelled at by the owner for an inconvenience that HE caused by poor organization, DONT come here ‍ besides, we saw him just sitting in the back without hair cover while all the women worked smh typical !

You can actually taste the freshness! Service is very friendly and knows the menu really well; our server helped me to decide the day we went. Price range is actually from $8 to $38. Ordered the garlic bread with cheese. The bread was toasted and soft in the middle, very buttery too. Even their house bread they give you before starters was really good! Crispy on the edges but so soft and warm in the middle and light buttery flavor. This is how bread used to taste like... Their fried zucchini's are perfectly fried to golden brown, crispy on the surface but soft on the middle, thick battered crust to a thick zucchini slice, and the complimentary sauce is rich and creamy, best dipping sauce of any other restaurant I've dined in. The pizza BBQ Chicken was very cheesy and soft, but the flavor wasn't all quite there. The crust bread was good though, crispy edge but very soft in the middle. Their large calzone is HUGE--the size is basically their medium pizza folded in half. The calzone is better than their pizza. And it comes with big sized dipping sauces, marinara and pesto. Their pasta that comes with a bed of seafood with white wine sauce was very creamy. Their seafood was also pungent and flavorful. It wasn't too salty either and was balanced with the saltiness. We actually went two days straight this weekend. I tried their pesto pasta, and it was perfectly creamy and flavorful, but I think their linguini would be better with this; I got their alfredo. Portions feed two people, so they are huge and you will have leftovers which I really like though. I didn't get to try their dessert as the starters fill you up pretty quickly due to the portion size. The inside is simply beautiful. Dimly lit, warm evening lights, grape vines decor on the pillars, wooden floor and tables. Small and intimate. But you can definitely bring a party of 15 people.

The place was packed and we waited about 20 minutes for a table of 7 (5 adults and 2 kids). As the waitress took our order, she proceeded to ask each one of us soup/salad whether it came with our dish or not. Pay attention otherwise you may unknowingly be ordering a soup/salad thinking it is included with your meal to later find out it is not. The garlic bread which is complimentary was delicious and the calamari appetizer we ordered was good, better than most places, but those were unfortunately the highlights of the dinner for me personally. My brother-in-law had to send back his silverware and appetizer plate that was set out for him were really dirty. Mine were questionable but I just went with it. I ordered the Linguine Frutti Di Mare at the recommendation of the waitress. Once it arrived it had an extremely watery sauce and looked more like a Cioppino (seafood stew} then any type of pasta entree dish with a sauce. The flavors were okay at best, but I was shocked at how watery the sauce was. I even asked the waitress if it was supposed to be so watery to which she had no response. I don't know if they are watering down all the sauces to stretch ingredients or if they don't drain the water from the pasta before they mix them - either way it was way too watery. My 5-year-old son had spaghetti with marinara sauce that was extremely watery as well and he refused to eat it after a couple of bites. My son always eats spaghetti with red sauce everywhere we go so we were shocked to see that he wasn't going to. We asked the waitress if we could get something else since he didn't like it to which she stated she would have to check with management. She came back and said unfortunately we could not nor would they remove it from the bill, but she did say she could get us some Alfredo sauce that we could mix in to the spaghetti and red sauce pasta. My 8-year-old ordered Fettuccini Alfredo which had good flavors but was extremely watery as well. It was more of a scampi sauce (water/butter sauce} then anything remotely close to a creamy alfredo sauce. My wife and brother-in-law who also ordered pasta dishes agreed their sauces were extremely watery as well. Lastly, when the bill came, we were shocked to see a $6 fee for tiny little dish of Alfredo Sauce that the waitress went out of her way and offered to bring my 5-year-old son so he would eat his dish. She should have at least let us know there was a charge for it if it wasn't going to be free. I do not plan on going back and would much rather eat at Renato's in Westminster.
