| - I have tried multiple different Italian food places throughout the Valley and nothing in the slightest compares to Cucina Tagliani.
Let me start with the decor first and get that out of the way. Yes, it looks like an italian village or something. However, isn't that what you expect going to an Italian restaurant? It sets the mood and why it may not be the most original it works.
Now for the food! Wow!
The best part is the pick-a-pasta option. You choose the type of pasta you want, with the type of sauce, and the added meats,veggies, etc. You build your entire meal and it has never failed. There are over 10 options of pasta, like 7 types of sauce (which all are delicious depending on what you like), and the add-ons range from meatballs, to chicken, to sun dried tomatoes, and on. There are plenty of options for everyone.
I usually get the tortellini with either the Dynamante sauce (spicy) or the meat sauce (red wine sauce). Then add sundried tomato, ground sausage, and mozzarella...TO DIE FOR. My girlfriend always gets the gnocchi with tomato-fredo sauce, meatballs, and mozzarella.
Not only can you do this but if you order the half size, you get a big portion, but if you order the full, then you get a massive portion to last you anohter day lol And if you ask nicely, on the full, they will allow you to pick 2 sauces and have half as one, half as the other. So if you are indecisive or just wanting to try a ilttle of everything, it works.
They have plenty of the classic staples as well from lasagna, to chicken alfredo, and pizza for those who just want classic italian food and each is prepared perfectly everytime. I love that all the sauce is prepared that day so you can tell the slgith difference every time you go in.
It is very affordable and won't break the bank. The caprese salad is AMAZING as well with the best balsamic vinegar I have ever taster, and the service is almost always great. I have been to all 3 locations and never been disappointed. Oh and their desserts are pretty good if you have room (I suggest the marscapone cake)!
Just like any restaurant, servers may or may not be busy totally on top of it but when they do ask if you need anything, they will get you anything and quickly so just bare with them on a busy night. But as for the overall grade at Cucina Tagliani, nothing but the best. Everyone I have taken there has become a loyal customer now. and with my 2 year anniversary coming up this Monday I know I will be enjoying another great meal there!
