We ordered a couple of things but Calamari and Shrimp Appetizer was really the only thing that had the most flavor. My girlfriend ordered a Margherita pizza that was fine. The sauce was ok and the crust was fine but other than that it was just again ok. I ordered a Spaghetti Carbonara and I took a bite or two and just couldn't taste much. This was even after they put some extra cheese on it. So I got some salt and pepper and added to a bit to it. After that the flavors finally started coming out and things were a lot better thereafter. It's just been awhile since Ive had to salt and pepper a dish. Part of me wants to give them one more shot but it's hard when I feel like my girl when through the same experience taste wise. Could have just been an off night though because I have had neighbors say they love this place. Hmmm....

Also amazing is how prices change. Picked up a bottle of whit wine we were told was $12.99. He said he had a cold one in the fridge, grabbed it, and quickly tried to remove the $9.99 tag.

4++ Farmers market that pops up in the Downtown Martinez area on Sundays I believe…read more While the market isn't huge, there's a really good selection of produce purveyors along with some eateries, some bakeries, and some general vendors. This farmers market as a small town charm to it and every person I interacted with was friendly. I was in the area because I crashed at a buddy's house the night before. When I was leaving the area, I saw this place and wanted to check it out. Keep in mind it was around the holidays and it was drizzling a bit that Sunday, so I'm not sure if it affected the amount of vendors present as this was my first time visiting. I ended up getting some enchiladas to go from one of the vendors selling Mexican food and a loaf of quinoa bread from one of the bakers (West Won Bread out of Napa). The food was good and the quinoa loaf was amazing and enjoyed by my parents and I later on when we served with some stew. Would love to re-visit with better weather conditions and different parts of the year. But definitely an enjoyable market based on my first visit.

Even those in our party who normally don't enjoy crab cakes had to partake because the rest of us were so enthralled. We had to order three orders of crab cakes - they were THAT GOOD! Definitely the best I have EVER had and I always order crab cakes when we go out to eat and they are on the menu. For dinner we all had a huge assortment of items. All delicious! Chicken parmigiana, cozze & vongole, mushroom ravioli, salmon, two of us enjoyed filet entrees. We were all very delighted with everything that we ordered!

This…read moreplace had a very warm atmosphere in the inside with only a few table but luckily it wasn't too busy when me and my girlfriend came by. From the looks of it, there are many locals who show love to this place because everyone seemed to know everyone which was a nice thing to know. Our waiter was very nice, I forget her name but she was such a nice lady. The food was amazing. You start off with a sliced bread thats warm straight from the oven and is presented to you with a secret homemade sauce that was super delicious. If you love garlic like myself, you will be scraping that sauce till its gone. We got the calamari to start with and share and I think that was the best calamafi I've ever consumed. I usually dont like the firm texture and fishy flavor of some calamari but this was super tender and super flavorful without the fishiness. A really great starter to share. We each got out own dishes and I got the Frutti di Mare. This dish was super flavorful and exactly what I wanted from a seafood pasta. Their mussels were HUGE though so I got kinda turned off from that (just a personal thing). Everything else was amazing and you also get a choice of soup or salad before your main entree which is a great format for eating. My girlfriend got the Pasta Gabriella and it was a VERY large portion. She said it was good but we both agreed there was a very strong bell pepper flavor. If you love bell peppers definitely get this pasta. Overall we had a great experience here and would love to come again!!

The service was extremely disappointing. Our waiter seated us and immediately walked away. When he…read morefinally returned, he asked if everything was okay, and we requested water. He came back again, asked the same question, and once again we had to ask for water. Instead of paying attention to his tables, he appeared to be watching the TV. Another waiter eventually noticed we still didn't have water and brought it to us. Our waiter later asked if we wanted bread, and we said yes. After another long wait, he brought us the appetizer bread, which came with an extra charge. We never ordered an appetizer and reasonably assumed he was offering the complimentary table bread. At no point did he explain there would be a charge. A different waiter ended up bringing out our meals. Our assigned waiter was virtually absent for the rest of the meal and didn't return until it was time to drop off the check. The service was inattentive, unprofessional, and lacked even the most basic communication. It was frustrating to have another server step in repeatedly while our own waiter was nowhere to be found. Unfortunately, this experience fell well below expectations.

First, let me talk about the complimentary bread and dipping sauce. The bread is not sourdough, which I was grateful that it wasn't, and it was very soft and delicious. The dipping sauce appeared to be tomato based with cheese and garlic mixed in, and it paired extremely well with the bread. For our appetizer, we chose the Insalata di Caesar, which is romaine lettuce tossed in their house made Caesar dressing made with eggs and anchovies, then topped with croutons and parmesan cheese. Overall, the Caesar salad was good. My only critique was that since they make such excellent bread, I wish they had made their own garlic croutons as well. Instead, the croutons felt store bought. Aside from that, the salad was very enjoyable. It was priced at $10.95 as of December 2025. For my entrée, I ordered the Fettuccine al Pesto, which includes fettuccine pasta, shrimp, mushrooms, white wine, and garlic in a creamy pesto sauce made with walnuts and anchovies. Overall, the dish was delicious. I really enjoyed the creamy pesto sauce with white wine and garlic, which elevated the flavor beyond a standard pesto and paired beautifully with the fettuccine. The mushrooms were also a great addition. The shrimp were plump and juicy, but my only complaint was that they lacked seasoning and flavor. I wish they had been a bit more seasoned. This dish was $19.95 as of December 2025. The restaurant's interior ambience was surprisingly more family style than fancy, and we actually much prefer that. Our server was also very friendly and helpful, which added to the overall positive dining experience.
