Nardò Italian Restaurant

We were here for our friends service. Special block was reserved and food was catered. Thus review might be different from the actual dine in experience. Most of the food items were very good. Margarita pizza was dry and ok, but they were out for self service. Freshly ordered might be better. We also had meatballs, fresh Mozzarella salad, Brussel sprouts were really good. We had multiple servers and they were all very attentive and helpful. Overall we had a good experience. We will definitely go in for dine in service.

Convinced that everyone that works here is really Italian. With that the dishes were pretty close to some we had not long ago in Italy. Highly suggest this place For a date night. Casual atmosphere and delicious food. We will be coming back.

I love this place, the food is amazing! Best pizza in OC! Very very authentic.
We’ll come back for sure

Great Napolitano style pizza, pleasant atmosphere inside, at least a few of the servers were from Italy. Going to try more dishes next time!
Not stroller friendly, don't drink the tap water.

Nice atmosphere with good outdoor patio views of the beach but lots of foot traffic goes by due to the mall atmosphere. Service was great and food comes out fast. The truffle fries were amazing and flavorful; however, the entrees were disappointing. My friend had pistachio pizza and it just wasn't flavorful but good crust/dough. I was really disappointed in my calzone as even though the bread was cooked well and tasted great the inside cheese wasn't melted. The mozzarella was still in pieces as if maybe it was too cold going into oven and didn't melt in time. This made it very weird texture and not flavorful. Realize they've only been open a few months but apparently have other locations so shocked that the food quality was subpar. Parking was easy in garage and they validate for 2 hrs free which is nice.
