We always order the tiramisu for dessert and a hot cup of coffee. Perfect dinner . Thank you very much

It was a weeknight and showed up around 7 o'clock plenty of seating inside and it's an upscale nice Italian restaurant. Started off with a glass of wine and a Caesar salad and extra points for the anchovies that were fresh.

This place is on my list to come back and try again but something different next time I would highly recommend this if you like good Italian food and great service!

Friendly, attentive, and the kind of service that makes you want to come back before you've even finished your meal. The food was outstanding. Every dish tasted incredibly fresh, and you can really tell they care about the quality of their ingredients. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, which isn't always easy to find, and every bite was packed with flavor. To top it all off, don't skip dessert. The affogato was the perfect ending to an amazing meal. Its simple, rich, and absolutely delicious. It's clear that Mehmet takes a lot of pride in both the food and the experience he provides, and it shows in every detail. If you're looking for authentic, high-quality Italian food in Burlingame with exceptional service to match, Bistro Arancini is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!

Dinner reservations for me and the wife, her birthday celebration …read more Got there a little early. Confirmed reservations and were given choices of seating. Wasn't as busy as the last time we where here a couple of weeks Ago. To me it seemed a little short staff, person, seating us, was also taking orders and bartering. I also believe I saw another waiter and two bus people they were working they were working really hard, applause to them they seem to pull it off. Same MO as last time, half bottle of wine, two entrées, bread and dipping sauce. And tiramisu for dessert with a candle for the birthday girl awesome touch. . Everything was perfect. Can't wait to come back again. Thank you.

I think they purposely up their prices for Mother's Day, Valentine's Day etc., because our bill was ridiculous. Anyway...we ordered the bolognese pasta and vodka rigatoni with added chicken. Their chicken was extremely dry and hard to chew, the way they cooked it just didn't complement the dish at all. To top things off the pastas were under seasoned. Our server did not come to refill our water even ONCE. It was an extremely disappointing Mother's Day dinner. I don't think I'll be coming here again.

We came around 6pm and requested to be seated near the television because my husband wanted to watch the basketball game they had on. The host said that those tables are for reservation only. However, he was willing to let us sit right below the tv. For food, we ordered: -the vongole pasta: super flavorful white wine sauce with plenty of clams and mussels. This is our favorite dish to order here. -the spaghetti with homemade meatballs: very disappointing with the meatballs that are supposed to be specially made here. They tasted very dry and the sauce was very watery. Here's where things went wrong: The complementary bread and garlic dip are usually so good. But today, the sauce tasted completely off...the garlic tasted and smelled like an old, wet rag..but my husband continued to eat it. When we got home a few hours later, both my husband and I started to get really bad stomachaches. I ended up puking and basically the both of us got food poisoning. It's odd that the host was saving the tables for reservations when no one even came at the time we were there. Service was good and attentive. The food, however, is not how it used to be. Probably won't be coming back again.

A menu of exquisite entrees wetting ones appetite anticipating an evening of aperitivo, savory antipasto, primo and secondo. The beet salad was not like the one your aunt would bring to the family reunion which was heavy and too sweet, this one was fresh, crispy lettus with a light taste of cheese. The clam chowder was also light but creamy, not heavy or over loaded with potatoes or clams the perfect primo. My wife's salmon was enhanced with a lemon cream sauce and the grilled braising pleased the palate. The Veal Marsala was tender and the red meat sauce and mashed potatoes was both a delicacy and a comfort. Coupled with a chianti classico, the evening was a date night to remember.

To-go review:…read more Meat-stuffed pasta w/ pancetta, peas & mushrooms had a cream sauce that was rich. The pancetta gives it that salty smoky kick, peas keep it from feeling too rich, mushrooms soaking up all that sauce goodness. I was mopping up the extra sauce with focaccia bread :) Butternut squash gnocchi was pillowy soft and sweet from the squash. Bread pudding w/ maple brandy sauce + crème anglaise was the best! Warm, custardy, crispy edges, and that maple brandy sauce hits with a sweet a with a little boozy warmth 10/10. Will definitely be back for date night!

We got some wings and the bulgogi pizza, and our only regret was not ordering the larger size of the pizza.

They were very generous with the protein in the paella, and the empanadas were yummy and had good breading. The octopus was very tender with a smoky char. The calamari had a light and crispy batter to it. The patatas bravas were just okay, there was nothing particularly exceptional about them. The sampler is a good item to order if you'd like to get a taste of multiple appetizers without wanting to load up on them! The sliders had very thick patties and were well seasoned. Service was quite good, I'm not sure if I would come back.

Realistically a 3.5/5. Came here for Valentine's Day and it was good! We had reservations at 6:30,…read morebut came at 5:30 to see if they could seat us and they were actually able to! The hostess and waitress were both very nice & lovely. What I didn't really like was them telling every table when getting seated that they're putting a 1 hour limit since it was Valentine's Day. It just felt distasteful but we also didn't feel rushed out. I think it started getting really crowded around 6:30. The tables were also very close together, I think they tried to stuff as many tables as they could since it was Valentine's Day. There wasn't a lot of room in between tables to even go to the restroom. We were seated near the entrance as well so I had people bumping into my chair whenever they came in. We ordered the Gambas Al Ajillo, Paella and the short ribs. Gambas Al Ajillo: good flavor, a little spicy/sour but was just a little bit too salty. Paella: This was really good, but not the best i've had. I still prefer the paella from Picaro. There was a lot of toppings but I feel like there wasn't enough rice. Short Ribs: These were good, but I feel like it was expensive for what you got. It came with potato wedges and mixed veggies. Some of the meat was also a little bit tough, but the other pieces melted in your mouth. Overall, I would come back! Staff was very friendly and attentive and the food was good.

You can't go wrong with a #3 and a pepperoni with garlic (a must try!). As someone who's had some of the best pizza in Little Italy in San Diego and in New York, Toto's is still my favorite. The sauce, bubbly crust, and flavor are incredible. The restaurant itself is no frills, but that's exactly what I'd expect from an authentic pizzeria. Good food, amazing smells, a clean dining room, sports on the TVs, and a family friendly atmosphere. We go out of our way to come here every year and even bring some home because it's just as good the next day. Pizza here is 5 stars!!

SMALL pepperoni, sausage and mushroom for $34.50. The same pizza is $25.99 at the OTHER famous San Bruno pizza joint across the street. For decades, kids from the Bruno fought over these 2 spots. I've ALWAYS been the Toto's guy. Not anymore. You own the property. Your staff isn't enormous. Real ingredients don't cost that much. You're gouging your customers. Toto's has always been a family joint. Now the only family who can afford it are the Kardashians. I suggest you freeze future price hikes until you run it by me.
