Perfect place for lunch break as midway point of our bike ride along Newport beach. The set lunch menu at $20 was a steal. Food was superb and service impeccable. Would be happy to go back for dinner to try our other items on dinner menu.
Absolutely one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. Fresh sea food and delicious Italian food. Add the excellent service, I don't think we could have picked a better place.
Nice little Italian restaurant in Newport beach. The chefs meat and cheese board was pretty good. The mozzarella cheese they used was amazing. I had to ask where they get it from. Its imported directly from Italy. It was one of the best cheeses I've ever had. This started the dinner off really well.
We picked this restaurant based on on its reviews, and we were not disappointed. Heather took good care of us, and we thoroughly enjoyed the spaghetti verde and short rib pasta. We'll come here again!!
10 STARS TO THE MINESTRONE SOUP!
& also the bolognese is so good too. I wish I had a photo to share, but unfortunately I ate it all too quickly.
Consistently great Italian food!
I haven't tried anything on the menu that I wouldn't give 5 stars for.
I found out Alessa when I was driving back to LA and wanted some place to eat and pick up the food! I call them and made the order and ate in the car, it was everything so delicious and fresh! We order Gnocchi Alfredo e Pepperoni Pizza, both so so soooo delicious! The breads with the pesto sauce it'
Excellent italian seafood. A very pleasant and courteous place with easy parking access off PCH. Sitting inside available right now with some social distancing. Reservation preferred I would say given the place seems to be always busy. Service is quick.
Went to happy hour with friends. Best time to go, best prices, it's a little pricey but the food and drinks are very good!!! Patio is nice but traffic very loud!
Excellent Italian cuisine. Very unexpected too. Food is fresh and tasty. Very nice low key restaurant meanwhile the service is outstanding. Will come again.
This is my favorite Italian restaurant in OC. Whenever I’m craving Italian food I head over to Cucina Alessa. Great service and the food is always delicious.
Delicious food, always a home run, the butternut squash with toasted sage. Really friendly and accommodating staff.personal favorite in Newport beach
Great food, quick service. Visited for dinner around 8, with a party of 4. No wait, seated immediately. Complimentary bread and pesto was just the thing to stave off our hunger until our food arrived. I ordered seafood linguine. The seafood was fresh and cooked well. The chicken parm is enough for
Great Italian food, one of the best I had in the US. The team is very friendly too.
Foods are great! Good services and their creme brulé is so delicious. Worth to be recommended!
