Garduno's Ristorante Italiano

Omg ..this place is amazing. Went here for business dinner with my work. This italian restaurant is located in Costa Mesa . I had ordered the linguini saliccia. The food was great and the aroma of herbs blended in with the sausages and sauce out of this world. It came with a side salad the house vinaigrette sauce ( secret). Loved it. The tiramisu was elegant. Soft melted in your mouth. The portion size easily can feed 4 people.

Amazing made-from-scratch dishes. Everyone was kind and professional. Reminds me of a few Italian Restaurants I’ve visited in Philly and NYC on the past. Definitely recommend this place as your local Italian joint.

Food was delicious, reasonably priced post plandemic, date night with wifey was less than $50 my only complaint was the parking situation but other than that everything was wonderful

Been coming here for years. Never disappoints. Check out their lunch specials.

Very much a neighborhood family run gem. The food was authentic and delicious and very attentive and courteous service. Pricing was good. That wallpaper makes me feel like I've come home to my grandma's kitchen!

Have to say I'm a novice at Italian cuisine (other than Neapolitan pizzas--which I'm learning to make at home on the Ooni, but that's another story). We ordered spaghetti with meatballs, fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the lasagna. All were delicious! Homemade taste with great portions! Service was wondering as well... We asked for outdoor seating as we brought the dog and they accommodated with their patio seating even though it was super cold outside. We were fine (no heater, but we're used to it)... And grateful for the outdoor seating:). Will come back and try other dishes!

Family owned OG OC Italian joint. Quaint, delicious, how did we not know about this sooner? Hand made pastas. House dressing is unreal. Come hungry.
