I am sorry your daughter shut down her business. Your prices and the quantity of your food sucks. So I will buy from Guieppes... until they follow your lead. I can cook for myself. REALLY disappointed in you. This is my last order. Good luck with theignorant tourists. TWA Read more

My wife and I just moved to Palm Springs and came to Nicolino's. They had live music and the owner and his wife stopped by to... introduce themselves. Staff is fantastic and we like the fact that any staff will come by your table if you needsomething. Great Pizza, plan on going back soon. Read more

Our absolute favorite Italian restaurant! The food tasted like they truly love making it, it?s always delicious no matter what... you order. We travel to Palm Springs every year and this is on our ?out to eat? list every year. The people are so friendly,always fun with the kids, and so accommodating to any requests or needs we may have!

Terrible! A co-worker recommend this place so I looked it up online. It had many good reviews and the pictures looked delicious... with reasonable prices. I ordered the meatball sandwich which they served with no marina sauce. It was dry with mozzarellacheese on it only. I asked for some sauce and it was brown not red. It had a really nasty flavor to it. My Aunt had penne withItalian sausage that had the sauce mixed in it, she agreed it was horrible. I ordered a Arnold Palmer and received a nasty icetea. I had to ask for sugar and drank only half of it. Waitress never asked if we wanted refills anyway and handed me the nexttable's bill which was over $100 and mine was 43.00. The whole experience had me wondering how they get so many good reviews. Iwas really looking forward to some good Italian food but was very disappointed. Next time I'll stick to Mario's pizzarestaurant, they have delicious food that's worth the price. Read more

Does this look like $77.00 worth of food? We ordered 3 #1 mediterranean flatbread pizzas. Added pepperoni, sun-dried tomatoes,... garlic. These are more like one and a half of regular pizza slices. We phone ordered this Wednesday, October 13 and picked upat 4:50 PM They charged $2.50 for each additional topping for each pizza. So $23.00 for each flat bread. These were not flatbread. Seriously, so $7.50 to put a couple crumbs of garlic on three flatbread $7.50 to put some pepperoni on three smallflatbread $7.50 to put some sun-dried tomatoes on three small flat breads. I get it if it was $2.50 just for all three eachtopping, but this was way overcharged?.in our opinion. Then we payed $8.00 for a Caesar salad. A small bowl of Romain, couplecrumbs of cheese, and dressing. ( we requested no croutons ) I know times are tough, supplies are short, inflation, shortstaffed, but fleecing customers is a fast way to lose them. We used to visit this restaurant every few weeks for taco Tuesdayloved their flatbread. This was pre-Covid. Now after yesterday?s order they have lost us as returning customers. On a sidenotethe pizza was good but insulting, and left disgusted with how much we paid for so little. It?s not a matter of not being ableto afford it, but there is no rationalizing how much this cost for so little in return. Way too many other decent restaurantsout there at a fraction of the cost, especially for pizza. The only reason we took the food and left., starving and did notwant to deal with it. We did get to see our buddy ?Speedo? there.???? Alittle old European man, that is a regular there. Read more

Went for dinner, it was very good. Our server was very friendly and super helpful. They have a good well rounded menu with... something for everyone. I loved the garlic bread that was offered for the table a nice touch instead of just plain bread. Theservings were a good size and came from the kitchen poppin hot! I love to support local businesses and this is a familyrestaurant that is doing it right. The menu pricing was very reasonable. I would definitely go back. Just so you know my 4star is very very good (I believe 5 star is perfect) Read more

Visited on a Thursday early evening. Food was fast and fantastic. Had sauteed mushroom app and a 10 inch pizza. Nikky Special, I... think. Mind blown. Service was friendly and attentive. If I'm ever in town again, I'll definitely come back! Read more
