Food was fine. Service at best okay - multiple requests went unfulfilled including missing dishes. Manager (owners son) was extremely rude.

I rally everything about this place was average. Nothing stood out. The food wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t memorable. For those that like a red sauce this one is more “tomatoes”. The gnocchi didn’t have much flavor at all.

A taste of Sunday dinner. Their Sunday gravy(not sauce) I knew I was on to something. So good. Kids had meatballs, other adults had fettuccini other dishes I can’t remember EVERONE liked their dinner, that’s unusual. Ordered online and picked it up.

Food is okay for Santa Cruz which in not the culinary capital of Central California but it is okay. Pasta over or underdone. Food not particularly flavorful. Overpriced and rude and disrespectful hosting. Don't recommend.

We went here based on Yelp and TA reviews. We ordered the truffle stuffed gnocchi with gorgonzola sauce, short rib pasta, and the chicken parmesan. All of the portions were huge and definitely would have split a few dishes instead of ordering a separate dish...for each of us. A bunch went to waste because we were staying in a hotel. The winner was definitely the chicken parmesan. The gnocchi was good but really rich. The short rib pasta was disappointing. Too much raw garlic. Wouldn't order that again. There was a line and without reservations it was going to be 1:45 hour wait. So we opted to order for pickup, which was about 40 min wait. It was a bit surprising to find a large industrial size restaurant. They have a large, impersonal looking indoor dining room and a cute outdoor area in the back parking lot.More

We called in a take out order and loved it so much, we came back again the next night. We enjoyed the gnocchi, eggplant parm, pesto pasta and lasagna. All were wonderful. Next time we are in the area, we will make sure to get...reservations early so we can enjoy dining there.More

We’ve been going to Lilians’s since they were in their tiny restaurant up Soquel Ave. I sometimes miss the little cozy atmosphere. Now it’s been more than discovered and it’s always busy even though the dining room is 5 times the original size. I’ve never...had a bad dish, we stick to the pasta. The Sunday Gravy with meat balls on homemade fettuccine is the perfect comfort food. The Gorgonzola gnocchi with or with out a filet minion is beyond decadent. Right now they have a nice set up in their parking lot due to Covid. They’ve set it up nicely so it feels like a patio vs. part of the parking lot.More
