Reviews for Carolina's Italian Restaurant in Garden Grove, CA

I was very excited when I saw the menu. But when the order arrived, the garlic bread were slightly burned on top and burned at... the bottom. Also very tough, like when bread is microwaved. The calamari were also too salty and not sure if they have to becrispy. The spaghetti with meatballs was good but the Spaghetti with mushrooms didn?t have any taste. Maybe I got a bad batch offood?

I'm hoping we came on a bad day. The food was very "frozen food" in taste. The meatball was inedible. The bread was more... appetizing than the meal. Our waitress was so nice we didn't want to complain but we won't be coming back. The atmosphere hereis nice. Hand painted walls and a to go option next door. For the price I'd rather go to another Italian chain. We were hopingfor authentic Italian and this was far from being it. Read more

Stopped by after spending time at Disneyland. My daughter requested spaghetti and I was on a mission to find the best spaghetti... for her. I didn't have to go far. The service was amazing and the food was very good. I had the minestrone soup and thespaghetti and meatballs. My daughter played an audible and asked for a pizza. The crust was good and it tasted fresh. Allin all a great restaurant. Thank you! Read more

How could this place not be a five-star restaurant? Plenty. Plenty of toppings. Lots of sauce. Thin crust. It's messy. It's... full of flavor and they don't mess around with their toppings they load the pizza up. So if you want a great pizza I woulddefinitely go here and I'm from Idaho going to Disneyland and happened to find this place and I'm glad I did Read more

Never am I really down in Cali to get some pasta, but this store was calling out to me. The service was great! Everyone was... really friendly and welcoming, and was a very nice and peaceful area. They where busy so the service was a little bit on theslow side, but was to be expected. The complimentary bread that they bring out is soft, fluffy and very tasty, with a crunchycrust Now the Pastas are to die for, they are huge and I mean huge portions that I was not expecting at all! I got the pesto,with chicken and was a little disappointed, as the chicken I had seemed to be over cooked, and seemed to not really be cooked inthe sauce, but rather just chicken cooked, and then the noodles and sauce just dumped on it.. which is okay but would have lovedto have the chicken cooked in the sauce. Other than that the basil and garlic ratio was phenomenal and very enjoyable :) Iasked for a side salad, and it was massive, which kinda makes me wonder how big a salad ordered would be. Will definetly becoming back that's for sure! Read more

We came for lunch. The food was very tasty and alot of it. I couldn't finish mine. Service was delightful. I would just suggest... since this is a authentic Italian restaurant. It would be nice to have real table service shredded parmesean cheese on thedishes. Read more

Very small, but quaint Italian restaurant in the Anaheim resort district that was walkable from our hotel. The wait was a little... long due to only having one waitress, but that's honestly something I've come to expect of good Italian food. Prices wereaffordable for the area and the food was delicious... And check out that cheese pull! Read more

Wonderful restaurant! The staff was very accommodating towards me and my guest. The aesthetic of the interior is also very... beautiful. The food is also very good! One of the best pasta places I've been to. The price is high but consider the foodportioning! One dish could be shared with two people. If you get the three sampler, I would suggest sharing that with someoneelse. 100% would drive back to this place just for their Alfredo & Cream Soda ! Read more
