Have eaten here 4 times in 2 months.
Caesar salad with grilled chicken - amazing. I feel silly getting giddy over a salad but it really is that good.
Cindy’s special is a great dish - filled with veggies and protein so you don’t hate yourself later. All entree served with an abundance of bread.
Meatballs - darn good. My go-to when establishing whether or not I’ll be revisiting an Italian restaurant.
Parking lot is sufficient, shared with other retailers but always able to find a spot. Hospitality and ambiance - you feel like family when dining here. They are warm welcoming and attentive. Love the chocolate Andes mints after dinner.

Yummmm. So far one of my favorito Italian restaurants in Orange County. We had Chicken Parmesan and a shrimp pasta and both were equally scrumptious. The Chianti house wine was sweet, full of a berry taste and was smooth. It was also a generous pour. The only thing the place needs is Italian music instead of Taylor Swift. That’s my 1 request since I’ll definitely be back. It would complete the ambiance. But great food and friendly service so 5 stars.

Remember when this place served authentic NY-style food? When they first opened in aliso What a letdown tonight. $31 cioppino for nothing, couple chopped up pieces fish and mussels a few shrimp and some water not even a side! It’s turned into a money grab. Nothing like when it first opened. It's sick what there giving for 31 dollars 😂 save your money! I left completely pissed for spending my money there.. I should have taken picture for all to see

Family friendly place. Really nice and attentive staff. I’m a big fan of the pasta rustica. Their pasta dishes and salads I think are the best thing they have. My kids love it as well. Desserts are fantastic but as a word of advice, find someone to share.

I took 2 bites. And then a picture to leave this review. I am not from this area and am loyal to my favorite Italian place. Ok. This is hands down one of the best takes of chicken carbonara I have ever had. I asked for butter they were so generous, same with the bread. I'm Here for a short time but thank you Cosmos for making my night better with your fantastic food
