Reviews for Kiantis Pizza & Pasta Bar in Santa Cruz, CA
Great place, delicious pasta. We went here for a carb heavy meal before the race. We got creamy fettuccine and pesto primavera,... both taste great. Read more
Kianti's is a fun and semi affordable Italian option in Santa Cruz! We really like the lasagna, spicy pasta, bruschetta pasta,... and spicy breadsticks. My biggest issue is getting delivery from them, in person on the patio is pretty good. Delivery? We'vehad THREE recent ones that the bag got so saturated that the food literally fell through the bag on to the ground or came apart.To expensive for this! Their bags used to be durable, and their to go containers used to be better too. It's a simple change,either buy better bags and containers or at least double bag. I wrote them an email saying all this, which went unanswered.Seriously.... the worst place for yummy food to be is on the ground. We're some of the "top customers" for delivery, apparentlywe've ordered it more than 25 times (we've also been dining there since it opened). If only they listened to their loyalcustomers, lol.

They have their menu's on wheels...which I thought was funny and a first time for me???? I really liked the food. Pizza was... great and pasta's Kiantis and fettuccine...on point! The kids were offered dough to play with while waiting for food order ????Area is located near other restaurants and a variety of local stores. Definitely recommend this place! Read more
food was great we had a large combination pizza, and a large half pepperoni and have Hawaiian with jalapeños pizza, also... kiantis spicy pasta if you like spicy food that pasta has a good little kick to it. and also creamy fettuccine pasta. and ahomemade lasagna. they also give the kids raw dough to play with, we sat outside it was a good vibe. I recommend this place notbad for our first time would of gave it a five star but waiter keep forgetting to get us stuff that we had ask. but still a goodplace to visit. Read more
You are able to customize pasta orders, choosing type of pasta, sauce, and various ingredients. But their menu dishes are also... very nice, including the delicious Creamy Buffalo Chicken Pasta with penne pasta that I had. They also possibly have the bestlasagna in Santa Cruz, which I got to try. A quite extensive wine, cocktail, and beer menu is available. The outside seating isquite nice, with heaters for when it gets a bit chilly; however, the metal chairs aren't so comfortable. Read more
Great indoor and outdoor atmosphere, and the food is great. They have plenty of vegetarian options; we got the Traditional... Italian Pizza and the Bruschetta. We got to see a dance/pizza dough tossing show from the staff while we were here which was acomplete surprise! Read more
This review is for this Fiesta pizza; we have gotten it several times in the past and the avocados have been fresh (green). The... past two times the avocados have been black like pictured here. It is obviously a bad avocado... sad to see it even beingserved; it's not a cheap pizza! Read more
This was our first time and it was the best!! We had the Buffalo Chicken pasta and the Fettuccine which comes with bread and... tasted great. The flavors are off the wall!!! We had pizza rolls as an appetizer and that alone set the mood. Great place andthe service was amazing. We will definitely be back. I even had a picky eater and he enjoyed the food....that to me says a lot!! Read more
