Bring cash for good pizza – For a little hole in the wall pizza place that reqires you to pay CASH ONLY!!! It sure does have some great pizza. Forget Pizza Hut and all those 30min or less places...If you are looking for good quality pizza come to Taratino's. Just remember it's cash only!!!

Think Olive Oil...... – No, not Popeye, Italian food, olive oil and lots of garlic. This place was a life saver when you need a quick lunch. I would waiver between a meatball sandwich and the pizza with salad. One of my favorites was the pasta with olive oil and garlic, but this wasn't the favorite of my co-workers. I only had the nerve to bring this back to my desk once and then I was offered breath mints for the rest of the day. The ambience is great if you're looking for a Mom & Pop type of restaurant. I could always pict... read more

great pasta – I really liked thier tomato basil and pasta. The bruschetta was good. The pizza was okay although I got the feeling that there cheese wasnt real, it was a bit rubbery. Cash Only here.

Best little pizzaria in Pasadena – Tarantino's is a dark and comfy mom n' pop sort of pizza place. It's the kind of restaurant where you can take the kids or take a date. The real reason to come here is the great pizza...so cheesy with thick and chewy crust. Their pizza sauce is perky but not a bit sour. My favorite is the plain ol' pepperoni and cheese pizza. They are also pretty quick to serve their pizza by the slice and salad by the boat...at Tarantino's your in and out in a flash, and predictably, their food is always f... read more

Little place, great food – Working across the street from this place was a life saver at lunch time. I've never been disappointed with the food. Pizza, calzone, pasta, salads, it's all good!

Cash Only – Good pizza and pasta for dinner. Tarantino's is also a good lunch spot. The pizza (by the slice) and calzone are quick from oven to bag. And the pasta -- especially the pomodoro or putanesca -- is ready in minutes. They accept cash only.
