Crivello's Italian Bistro

Let me start by supporting my family and I like to support small businesses. We had seen this restaurant for a while and wanted to try. Our visit took place on September 14 at 18:30. When we arrived, we were greeted and sitting in a reasonable time, but our server Adolfo was unprofessional. We checked the menu and decided to order a bottle of wine. Adolfo returned with a bottle we had accepted what we had ordered. He poured a sample for my sister. We agreed it was ok, but later learned, he switched what we had ordered to a $44 bottle, which is listed on our bill as Pinor Noir, Sextant, Santa Lucia Highlands, Monterey California. From there, everything got worse than our whole meal was terrible. The bread on which the Bruschetta $14.95 came was too hard, the Gnocchi with Pesto which I had ordered was too oily, the Penne Fra Diavolo, which we were told, came only with a little spice, but holy cow this thing was on fire and my wife could eat only 3 bites. The Chilean Lake Bass was a special and recommended by Adolfa, but was less than desirable. I will give them a little praise as my son liked his spaghetti and meatballs and the Tiramisu was also good. Overall, I would not recommend this facility!

5 star food in a strip-ball. Your cook could be any high-end restaurant he wanted, the sauces are devine and meals are really fantastic. Some go to dishes are the Calamari steak in lemon caper sauce or salmon (although his only try on the menu). The healthy part of the lasagna is also a family lover.

We?re from Boston where we had great Italian restaurants. We were disappointed here in SoCal until we found Crivellos. Great food and wonderful service and always consistent. Smaller restaurant that?s tucked away. The owner is most often behind the bar.

Great service. Bolognese sauce too dry. Key Limecake good not big, hard crust. Shrimp Fatuccine Alfredo excellent.
