Great Place for ALL Occasions!

by skigirl99

After my aunt had a party here, I couldn't stop talking about how much fun I had. So, I decided to go back & try the restaurant out.

My aunt's party was all you can eat, but I never imagined how great the portions would be in the restaurant...they were huge! It was great too because I was able to eat it for lunch the following day.

Super festive decor here. Very fun place to go...I would think this would be a great place for a first date.

• Pros: Large Menu & Great Service

Horrible

by Caminggay

My husband and I was visisting Fullerton and our daughter who goes to CSU Fullerton took us to this place. The decor was horrible. The wall were loaded with crazy looking stuff and it gives me a huge head ache just looking at it. The furnitures were horrible. Chairs were torn. The tables are too close to each other you literally can smell the breath of the people sitting in the other table. The food were horrible. Large portion, I agree, but the pasta were blah. Breads were okay. The pizza crust tasted like cardboard. I don't recommend this place if you are looking for a real Italian taste. Service were okay. The place look dirty.

• Pros: Big Portions
• Cons: Horrible Taste. The place look dirty. Ambience...horrible.

Great Food!

by Halfiron

My husband and I have eaten here about 15 times. We've brought friends and family with us as well. Always great service and even better food. Parking is never a problem. Can't think of a time when we were disapointed. They do have great pizza but they also have a huge menu with lots of amazing food. We love this place ! We'll make the 1/2 drive anytime at a moments notice!!

• Pros: Great food, great staff and great ambience
• Cons: Can't think of any...

The Best Italian Food

by GinaMarieG1978

I have been to my fair share of Italian food chains, holes in the wall etc. This place clearly is above all of them! The pizza is fantastic and full of cheese! The pasta is served up with huge portions (enough to take home for a second meal). I absolutely love their Alfredo sauce! The bread is homemade tasting and awesome and fresh!

They have good prices. I always take my guest here to show off this hidden treasure and make them a fan as well!

I just booked my wedding there because the atmosphere is amazing. So much history in this place. It makes eating here fun! I have always had good service as well. I highly recommend this place. I am italian myself and LOVE IT!

I have been here probably hundreds of times to say the least and nothing compares!

• Pros: Fresh, Authentic, Tasty, Huge Portions
• Cons: NONE!

Loved it, loved it!

by Sirjames1

My wife and I visited this restaurant when visiting the USA. It was an exceptional experience. Great food coupled with experienced and friendly staff made for a great evening. In fact evenings as we went back 3 times during our stay. We are not used to such an incredible ambience as our restaurants in the UK tend to be more reserved and certainly do not offer such amazing value for money.

Would that we could take Angelo's & Vinci's home with us!

Cannot understand some of the detrimental comments made by previous reviewers.

• Pros: Fresh ingredients
• Cons: We have nothing like this in the UK!

For 1st Timers - Get the Oil, Garlic & Romano Cheese

by outland177

One of my favorite places for pizza in Orange County. Their ingredients are incredibly fresh and the quality of food is really amazing compared to other pizza establishments.

Not a place I would go for Italian food, but I highly recommend the "Oil, Garlic & Romano Cheese" pizza with a stuffed crust. Its very simple, but one of the best pizzas you will ever have.

Note - I've tried nearly every topping to add to this pizza to better its flavor, but its best kept simple.

• Pros: Great pizza, take-out available which I highly recommend
• Cons: Italian food isn't good and the ambience is like Buca, yet crazier

fabulous atmosphere !!! Music was so fun to hear.

by rigarmi

The waiter was very nice wish I had his name. The food was pretty good,americanized Italian food but I did enjoy it very much. The soup was good but didn't seem to be homemade. One thing that could make this place better to me is the other people that work there. They

were cold and unsociable. I am Italian and Italians are usually sociable. Even the host who I'm

guessing is the owner was a grump. She couldn't break a

smile and I gave her a few chances. We also wanted a tour they were not very busy but couldn't give one. It was my first time there and I have heard about others getting tours of the haunted building. I will go back and give it another shot. Hopefully the hospitality improves.

• Pros: fun place
• Cons: the staff is cold

Great flavours and wonderful value for money

by squeezy37

My family have eaten at Angelos and Vinci's many times over the last 18 years and we think that the food is as good as ever and the flavours in the dishes are fantastic. Value for money is assured here. We have never had a problem with the service and find it is still the best overall experience we have in Fullerton.

• Pros: Flavours. Value for money. Parking.

Marginal food with TERRIBLE SERVICE

by pik0

So the decor is beautiful and A&V came HIGHLY recommended by an old friend. But, apparently, the original owner died a few years ago and the place has gone down hill ever since. While we were seated immediately, the waiter took forever to deliver Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar (something we take for granted at a true Italian place) for the bread that the busboy had dropped off 20 minutes prior. Our anti-pasti of calamari never showed up until long after we had finished eating the bland entrees. The waiter even asked if we still wanted the calamari!! Also, when the entree was served, the server tried to take my half eaten salad (not even asking if I was done) sticking his armpit in my face in the process. Then he shot be a look as if I'd insulted him. TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!!

I was at least expecting the manager to come over and apologize for the terrible service (everyone has a bad night), but that never happened either.

Otherwise, the Chicken Parmigiana and the Fettucine Afredo were bland at best. As I understand it, this place is known ONLY for it's Pizza and nothing else. Honestly, with the decor, it would make a GREAT Buca di Beppo, whose food is ALWAYS great and service stellar... Perhaps some day... :(

• Pros: Great decor. Pizza is supposed to be good...
• Cons: TERRIBLE SERVICE, all food served on plastic dishes
