They were nice, but personally I thought the food was just okay. It is way over priced for just pastas and pizza. The vibe is nice and I see what they are trying to do, but just too pricey for my taste.
I could eat here EVERY day! Food is WONDERFUL and the staff is worth a large tip! :) Best to make a reservation.
Amazing food with a great selection of beer and wine. Everything is fresh. My only complaint is the lack of seating.
Fantastic, friendly, and attentive service. Great pizza!! Thin crust cooked perfrctly. Hommade sausage on pizza was plentiful and exceptionally flavorfull. We dont eat here enough. Erin was so attentive. Thanks Laurie for stopping by.
Went to a great little pizza place last night, La Volata Pizzeria in Redlands, on Ford St.
Just a little place, with a great staff, and deliciously wonderful food!
Macaroni & Cheese to start, and a great start it was. Nice big macaroni, (not that little stuff you normally get, like out of a Kraft box), cooked perfectly with a creamy white cheese sauce, and small chunks of meat, (like an Italian ham?), topped with a crumb crust and garnish, in a cast-iron "boat", and cooked in an awesome wood fire stove.
For pizza we had the Ellie, and a Chris.
The Ellie had sausage, chilies, fresh greens, and mozzarella.
The Chris had homemade sausage, baby potato slices, mozzarella, and is topped with a perfectly cooked fried egg sunny side up.
Dessert was semi-frozen chocolate mousse with chantilly cream, fresh peach slices, and candied almonds.
In a word, divine!
Giving you the ingredients doesn't even come close to describing the taste. As far as I can see, just about all the ingredients are local, homemade, and fresh!
Also, any of their pizzas can be made to order.
The staff are knowledgeable, super friendly, and quick to answer, or explain, anything you may want to know. Costs a little more, but so worth it.
Treat yourself, go to La Volata Pizzeria!
This place is awesome. We've been going there ever since it opened. No screaming kids or loud noises like a cafeteria. Very intimate and classy. Premium wines and beers. I'm hooked on the "chaci" pizza. Its not on the menu but it's wonderful.
I've been wanting to come here for a long time and we finally made it. Was not disappointed. Flavors were out of this world. Fresh ingredients. A unique experience. Staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is nice quiet and relaxing. Definitely coming back.
This place is okay. Aside from an amazing crust, I thought the pizza we had was alright to good, but far from amazing. While I can't see myself personally coming back in the future, this is still an okay place for a casual meal with a small group of friends or lunch date.
Food:
We got the Elle pizza. Can't say it was knock-your-socks-off good, but it did the job as far as filling us up. The most remarkable thing about it was how delicious the crust was! Super crispy but still chewy and a bit of harmless char to give it that oven-baked taste. As for the rest of the pizza, it was packed with veggies and some fresh lettuce on top (drizzled with some sort of light balsamic vinegar). Overall, crust = fantastic; rest of pizza = meh. I thought the lettuce on top was kind of annoying since it made bites awkward. I resorted to just taking the lettuce off and eating it separately like some weird, awkward rabbit.
Service:
Our server was pretty friendly and helpful. He didn't really check on us much except to tell us that they ran out of chicken (at 2 PM in the afternoon? Kind of weird.). Not the best service, not the worst.
Vibes:
Inside, La Volata has quite a nice feel to it. It's pretty rustic and the tables are super cool with a bunch of corks/old bottle lids as decoration. Ceilings and walls are adorned with fun decorations as well. I can definitely see this place as a nice spot for a date.
Overall, I wasn't too impressed but I thought it was an okay last-resort kind of place to go.
My husband and I have beem looking for a good authentic Italian pizzeria and have finally found one. It was so good. With him being from Italy he generally finds the pizzas here not up to par. He loved the pizza. Our only suggestion/ complaint was that we both would have like 1 of the pizzas on the menu to come with a type of meat since add ons are a bit pricey. We spent 42$ on 2 pizzas . We ordered a margarita pizza each one with salami and sausage and one with prosciutto and sausage. But the pizza it's self was heavenly.
Definitely a nicer sit down pizza place. Not traditional American style pizza, so prepare for something new and amazing
Wasn't expecting the epic experiance I just had at this place. I didn't even know it was here. They have no shortage of IPA's and pizza. The place has an indigenous feel instead of that corporate profile. They actually care about you. It felt good when I could sense I actually mattered to them. What a breath of freshness this awesome place is.
I highly recommend it and I will return with others soon.
Fantastic place. You feel right at home the moment you walk in. The scenery is original and lovely. The service is delightful. The food is original, local, and delicious.
Just so happened to find this place while taking a pit stop between The Bay Area and Phoenix and WOW did we luck out! What an amazing spot! They have an awesome selection of craft beers, and our waitress was super nice. She brought us out samples of a few to taste. She also recommended a tasty choice of meats and cheeses for our platter, which were perfect with the beer. Good pizza, good beer, good food, good people and really, really cool tables. You gotta check this place out.
