"The food was bland and lacked sauce. Sauce also bland. Cheese was good. Paid 20 bucks for this. Not impessed at all. The pasta was not fresh. Its reheated. And overcooked. Check out the picture. Thats literally what they served me. Does it look appetizing"

"Maybe quality suffers with takeout orders? Our Pasta bolognese was dry; the pasta noodles had very little sauce. Same with the sausage & mushroom pasta. Although we asked for & they confirmed we were getting ribbons of tagliatelle pasta, we got corkscrew pasta instead. Taste for both was just ok.
Maybe you just have to eat in."

"Love the place when it firsts open, but now lacks quality, flavor, and seriously needs to train your college student employees about the hospitality industry... we were served reheated food and the past was overcooked..."

"Ordered at 6:15, served at 7:13. Mine was ravioli that only requires you to boil the pasta, sliced tomatoes, capers and shredded cheese. It should not take nearly an hour.
Objectively, it probably tasted fine, but when you're inconvenienced, food is bound to taste differently. Wont be back."

"I came to Italian Homemade before and their dishes are relatively good --or at least I thought it was--until I tried their panna cotta and was extremely disappointed. The best way to describe the taste of this panna cotta was "plasticy" and also left a very distasteful taste in my mouth. The texture and consistency of the panna cotta was also unauthe..." Read more

"Ordered two specials online.
Portions were small, but even worse they gave me a duplicate of one of the specials, because they were out of the other.
Thought that was an awful assumption, and wish they would've contacted me instead of assuming. And didn't recompense me for difference in price.
Lost my biz"

"Not worth the price! Totally disappointed. The proportion size is very small. For what you're paying, I would expect more. The over quality of the pasta was not impressive."

"The food is decent and the staff is friendly but the prices are ridiculously high and an absolute ripoff. $23 for simple pasta with red sauce!? Absurd"

"How do you screw up pasta? Got a takeout order with marinara sauce and the pasta was dry, hardly any sauce, and then, oddly, they added a package of sliced tortillas to the order."

But recently my friends are I have been greeted by this guy (seems to be the only man working here and the one in charge), and he was checking us out way too much. Made us all..." Read more

"I came here with high hopes and left genuinely confused as to how this place is still in business. The food was mediocre at best in terms of taste and left me feeling physically ill! I saw literal mold on the parmesan that they were selling at the front after I ate my meal which is so concerning. To top it all off, I saw a fat fucking cockroach near the ba..." Read more

"Worst restaurant in the Bay Area! Do not go to this establishment I'm pretty sure they spit in your food. The manager has a nasty receding hairline but acts like he is a movie star. The poor staff needs to escape from this place because it is such a hostile environment. Did not have a good experience eating here!!! The pasta was too cold and salty and the sa..." Read more

"The Gnocchi with sauce was very small portion for an overpriced $18 dish. The restaurant made the dish so saucy to make it look like you're getting a lot of food. But really you're not! We ordered an entrée not an appetizer! So please get the portions right. If the portion served was from a fancy restaurant, it may be expected. But this place is nowhere fanc..." Read more

"GREATLY OVERRATED! Absolutely nothing special about the pasta. The sauces for the pasta are mediocre at best. The lamb Raghu is watery and far from a Raghu sauce. The pasta tastes like homemade pasta from someone who is trying to make pasta for the first time.The cold sandwich is a thin piece of flare bread with slices of tomorrow and..." Read more

"We recently dined at the Italian Homemade Company, and the experience was disappointing. The service was terrible, particularly from the woman at the register, who I believe is the owner. She refused to remove an item from my order before I had even paid, claiming it had already been sent to the kitchen. This was surprising, as I had ordered too much and wan..." Read more
