LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TARANTINO's – i go to tarantinos at least 6 or more times a month. the garlic rolls (you must, must try these) are addictive and the carbonara (huge serving and very garlicky) is heaven. their pizza bread is amazing. i can't get enough of it. i have them on my speed dial and pick-up very often. it's also very cheap considering how great the food is. this is the no fuss italian eatery that's authentic.

Now that's Italia! – This place is so down to earth. The place is bustling and don't take reservations; so be prepared to queue up for a table. My favorite pizza is the Florentine. The service is very friendly service and the prices are great too (cash only). Mangia!

Italian Paradise – Forget the big chain restaurants! Tarantino's is a wonderful little Italian place perfect for two. It is a hole in the wall and the decor isn't exactly romantic. It's like eating at somebody's house, or at a little authentic deli. The garlic rolls are to die for, the salad is always excellent, and I'm partial to the wonderful Stromboli. I live in the Santa Clarita Valley and find it's worth the 40 some mile trip to eat here. Go for the food (and bring CASH) and you won't be disappointed.

Prego! – Great pizza! And the antipasta is fantastic! I love a place where the staff take the time to get to know who you are. It makes you feel welcome. Like you are part of the family

Slices of heaven – It looks like a complete dive inside, but the pasta and pizza are amazing. Don't miss the appetizer "salad" that consists of huge, tender slices of tomatoes, artichokes and all kinds of other stuff with flavorful balsamic viniagrette-based dressing.

Crispy on the bottom, gooey up top – So far the best pizza I've found in Pasadena. A good crunch to the pizza crust, just like NY pizza. The salads are huge and tasty. I've been here several times and have always had the pizza, so I can't vouch for the other dishes.
