Reviews for Tutti Mangia Italian Chophouse in Claremont, CA

Such a lovely time at @tuttimangia last night. Appetizers included griilled octopus with marbled potatoes, castelvetrano... olives, fennel, fresno chiles, with preserved lemon-erb vinaigrette and fresh yellowfin tuna crudo with sesame seed spice,burrata, eggplant caponata and a crostini. These appetizers were hit and miss. The octopus texture was off and I felt itneeded seasoning whereas the tuna had incredible texture but was severely over seasoned. I found myself scraping off theseasoning with my butter knife so I could actually taste the fish. The accompanying burrata and caponata were very good thoughand made up for the not so great octopus and over seasoned tuna. On the bright side, my veal chop with bone marrow andmushrooms was phenomenal! Meat was seared and seasoned to absolute perfection. I was so impressed with my main course. Wish Icould say the same for the desserts. My server recommend the ricotta lemon cheesecake which surprisingly I didn't love. It hadweird texture and was smothered in a sweet whipped cream. When I let my server know I didn't care for it he thoughtfully broughtout the other dessert I was looking at, the bundino. It was okay. I appreciated the gesture greatly. Overall, the star was themeat. The ambiance is lovely and my server was friendly. I'd love to go back and try some of the fish and pasta. Read more

I wanted to treat myself to something nice after a long weekend of call & a long day at work. I called in advance to see if... there was a dress code because I was in sweat pants. I was told there was a business casual dress code but that I was welcomeas I was. I was greeted & seated almost immediately. I was tempted to try the raw beef app but the server was not reassuring. Each time I asked a question about the preparation he attempted to explain & then shrugged it off saying he didn’t eat rawbeef. So I passed. I ended up ordering the sautéed spinach & grilled asparagus to accompany the Dry Aged Rib Chop that Irequested medium-well. It was a bit more well, than medium but it was still great. The vegetable were unsurprisingly bland & Iwould have preferred a better cooked asparagus. For the price I paid, it could have been better but I would still recommend &return. The staff was great.

This was our secondtime here. We were there for a birthday dinner. The service was ok and the food was delicious. There were... twenty of us in a small restaurant. It's seems like they were overwhelmed because there were 2 other big birthday parties. Thefood and drinks were great. Read more

Enjoyed dinner outside on the patio. It took a little longer than expected to be seated, but once we were seated, everything was... perfection from beginning to end. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful in selecting the best options. The pasta, salad,bread and dessert were all high quality ingredients and prepared expertly. The recommended Bananas Foster was especiallydelicious. Excellent experience. Read more

Tutti Mangia is a gem of a restaurant. The best you will find in food, service and cocktails. The bartender Lisa is an artist... with her cocktails. From presentation to taste, it's like you're on vacation instantly. We always enjoy patronizing them. Thefood is delicious. Don't forget to ask what their specials are. Read more

Amazing service and food. We visited on a weekday for a birthday dinner. I love the slight taste of char on the grilled veggies.... Octopus was also amazing! The shishito peppers were the best I have ever tasted. Read more

I have been at this restaurant, during Fourth of July weekend! The meal, that I have ordered, was delicious. At the time, there... was ample of space to sit down outside. So, I did, since that weekend, they had warm weather. I really enjoyed my experience, atthis establishment. The working staff was courteous, friendly, and polite. Of course, prices were on the expensive side. So, Iwould recommend to visit this establishment, only when disposable cash is available! I will come back, but only, when I havemore disposable cash.
