    Pasta garlic oil mushrooms, spinach, and olives
    Steve W.

    What a find!! We were enjoying our friends band, 3 Chord Kings at Mother's Tavern, and got hungry. Across the alley about 40 feet from door to door is this Italian place. I asked a local in Mother's if it was any good, he replied "effing yes it's great". That was enough for me. In between sets we enjoyed pasta with spinach, mushrooms, and olives. I tried the Italian Trio. This is three small portions of Chicken Parm, Fettuccine Alfredo, and meat lasagna. Off the charts explains the meal. The service is great, and the vibe is small, local, beach cool. I can't give it 6 stars, but I would. We shall return for what we see is yummy looking pizza. Well done Sunset Pizza and Pasta!

    we enjoyed our experience. we came for pasta: one puttanesca and one spaghetti with sausage links. delicious flavors along with the accompanying bread. the puttanesca is heavy on the anchovies. as someone reviewed previously the spaghetti sauce was watery but when brought to the chef's attention he fixed it right up! next night we got a large pizza with 3 toppings and a chicken parm sandwich. the pizza was great but the sandwich bread was not so good. a nice salad accompanied the sandwich that had very good chicken. we got this order to go and the sandwich plate had two sandwiches. i saved one for the next day but only ate the chicken. tasty. service is great! comfortable with highway view or secluded towards the rear. i would recommend coming here. servings are good size. both meals came to $50+

    Best food and service ever!!! 10/10 came here from arizona for 3 nights and ate here for two of them. I never review restaurants on yelp but it was so amazing had to share the love.

    Very nice mom and pop shop really enjoyed everything that they had I love their vibe I love their service I love everything about it The coolest thing is that everyone so was so involved not even just a waitresses the cooks the salad people the whomever they were just everybody I mean you have people who are locally eating dinner and also picking up big family meals to go You really got to give it to them I think they did an excellent job I told my wife and kids about them whenever we're in the area we got to come here

    MUST TRY!! I came here once on a whim- now it's a true favorite. Beautiful atmosphere (right by the beach), the most attentive and hard-working staff, and an open kitchen where you can watch the chefs at work. The food is fantastic, especially anything with their pesto and the menu has so many delicious pastas and pizzas to choose from. The salads are super fresh. The caesar dressing and vinaigrette are both exceptional. They serve warm house made garlic bread that's absolutely delicious! This place never disappoints.

    Looking for great pizza and pasta in the Huntington Beach area? This is the place! Incredible food at a very reasonable price. The owners are the cooks, so you know the food is going to be top notch. Family-owned feel, quaint and welcoming environment. Staff was extremely friendly, and service was above and beyond! Right on the PCH, and Sunset Beach. My recommendations for orders (no particular order): (1) Margherita Pizza (2) The Sunset Pizza (3) Trio Italiano -which includes the most delicious, breaded chicken parmigiana, homemade lasagna and creamy fettuccini alfredo that is to die for! We live 800 miles away but always see to it that we visit Sunset Pizza whenever we are in CA- worth the drive!!!! You won't regret it. Just remember - they are closed every Tuesday.

    My wife and I stopped in for an early dinner the other day. This is actually the place where we had our first date so many years ago. Not too many things have changed in the year since. The food is still as good as ever, and the seating is as small and cramped as ever, we had traffic service! Young lady took great care of us. For starters we open with their toasted ravioli and an adult beverage. They were OK, never having them before. My wife and I split a small carnivore pizza. It was a little greasy. But that said delicious.

    Do you make a vodka sauce?

    Yes

    Are there any gluten free options?

    We do have penne pasta gluten free that we can cook for you, it will take a little longer but we can make it for you.

The truth is I couldn't have imagined what an enjoyable meal myself and my two companions would be having. Having flown in from Seattle for work we were desperate to get away from the Hyatt Regency for a little bit better food. So I turned to yelp. As we walked inside you are immediately taken by the charming atmosphere. Everyone was so welcoming! From our amazing waiter Timmy to Misty our chef/owner. Every single dish was fantastic. From the French Onion soup with bone marrow, the Mac and cheese shareable, to the garlic bread with pesto.. But the entrees and desserts SHINED! I had the scallops while the other two had the 8oz hanger steak. Both steaks were cooked to perfection (rare and medium well) and the scallops were so buttery soft they melted in your mouth. The desserts was cheesecake with a raspberry gelee for one and a warm banana bread with ice cream and chocolate drizzle for the other. Even though we were all stuffed, the plates were worthy of a lick (although we restrained ourselves). So if you're ever find yourself in Huntington Beach and want to up your food game, come to this little gem. It won't disappoint. Will definitely be back next time!

So we had to get the charcuterie which was so small and cost $30. Really ridiculous price for something with a few pieces of meat, cheese, grapes and nuts. The wine was good, and the tastings were generous and I know it is a wine bar but the day was really spoiled by not having a lunch there. I don't think I would go there again.

He was helpful, knowledgeable, and even assisted me with carrying the box out to my car. Good prices and a wonderful selection of Chilean, South African, New Zealand, Australian, & Argentinean wines. I typically go to Costco and chat with the "Costco Sommelier," as I call him. He has helped me select wines as I have been lost in the wine isles at Costco previously.
