The only word i have for this place is 'GREAT'. The servers are great, polite and affectionate. The food is really good. It think its overall worth the price as well.

Does not suck.  The food was good and not very expensive.  They were playing a dvd through the store speakers (-1 for TV's) but when asked they switched it over to some more ambient  music.I wouldn't go far out of my way but, when I'm in the area this is definitely on the list.

I have only delivered from this place... never actually ate at the restaurant.  For delivery food... this is pretty good. Better than the big chains.  We ordered their Tiramisu and some ice cream wrap thing... both delicious.  We also ordered their Primavera Pasta (not too exctiting,  but good... a white sauce with veggies) and their beef ravioli (good... nothing too special).  Their veggie soup was really good though... all fresh veggies. Salad was the plain old lettuce type. Note: They do not make pizzas... but they do make calzones. Total damage: $36.57 (that includes two huge ice teas and garlic bread).  When in the mood for delivery... this is definitely high on my list for the area.

I've been going to Demiceli's ever since high school. We used to go for the never ending pasta special that they had, which I'm not sure if they still have it going on. I would always get the fettuccine and it was already delicious. Their baked manicotti is also totally fantastic. My mom and I used to go and split it all the time in high school. They have really good garlic bread too. This is a fun family restaurant. The owners are always nice and will come out and ask you how everything is. I really need to go back here again, it's been too long.

This place was quite good.  Everyday of the week they have great specials for great prices.  My friend and I went here for dinner on our dinner break.  In the beginning we were a little bit worried that we wouldn't make it on time, but our food came really quick.  We had the baked mastocilli (?), salad, garlic bread and a drink for only $3.95.  It was suppose to be $6.95, but I guess our waiter gave us a break.Family atmosphere, very casual and good food.  The place is sort of hard to find, it is located behind Blockbuster video on the corner of Euclid and Katella.

The workers gave a warm welcome, maybe because we were a group of 10.  A random little place in anaheim, right next to a blockbuster and a hookah lounge.  I was pretty worried about eating here, it's such a hole in the wall. the decor was plain, a bit "cheesy" but i guess a homey feel. To start...Good bread, even better dipped in a bowl of their marinara! their bread is soo good. its fluffy with a hint of garlic and cheese.  we went on a friday night, but it was not busy at all, which was good so they were able to take care of our big group better.  I ended up ordering the (house specialty) scampi all demicelis.. linguine pasta which came with really big shrimps, served in a semi thick white sauce - which tasted like a smoked cheese sauce.  i had a few bites of the Demicelis Combo (mostly everyone in the party had that).. which i think is an amazing deal, will probably get it next time i visit.  it comes with 3 different entrees, lasagna- cheesy and flavorful, the chicken parmigiana and fettucine alfredo..which was all in all pretty good.  SUPER HUGE PORTIONS.  I needed a leftover box.  Authentic tasting, but was a little confused because I did not see one italian person in there.. even the workers.  Maybe the owner, who's italian, had the day off.Also had to try a dessert of course, so I shared a slice of tiramisu, which our waitress kept saying was "THE BEST TIRAMISU," but when i asked about the ice cream filled crepe, she also said it was the best. well  it sounded pretty great.  it's a crepe filled with butter-pecan ice cream topped with caramel sauce. mmmm. next time!  and the one thing that caught my eye was the FRIED SPUMONI ICE CREAM. wow. also next time.  Oh, and the tiramisu... was almost the best. it was soft as a cloud and pretty delicious.  i don't think i've had the best yet, when i do, i'll just know.

I went here with my roomate on Mon with the intention of eating the "all you can eat spagetti"... Found out it is only served on the weekends..however, I also printed out their coupon for a free lasanga dinner with soup or salad.. a recession friendly life saver..go to their website and you can print out the coupon. Please call to see if the coupon is only (1) per party.Overall, decent food, and can't complain about the free grub...

What? Mexican owned Italian restaurant?...nooooooo...well actually yes!A Work in ProgressI began this culinary journey with their complimentary bread which was totally fresh and wonderfully complimented by the balsamic vinegar they provide you with. Next I had the side salad with a honey mustard dressing, which was nothing to really write home about. I had the Manicotti and it wasn't bad. The actual pasta was undercooked, which I let the owner know about. Their sauces are made fresh daily and are great. You can tell they are freshly made boasting quite a bit of flavor. Their fresh dried chili pepper was scrumptious adding a wonderful kick to the Manicotti.My server was really nice, but has much to learn. She didn't stop by my table to check on things or offer a refill. When my entree came she did not offer fresh grated Parmesan cheese for it which would have been nice. I prebussed for her, but she still managed to leave some of it (I was just trying to help.) They didn't have any bussers on duty, so after the large Canadian family left their table remained unbussed!...detailsThis place can use a lot of advice and it can totally be a legit date spot. The first thing I would do is change the appearance of the menus. I would switch to a thick beige paper with cursive writing. Take all the pictures off the menu and all the little advertisements on the tables. I would then remove all the vases with the plastic flowers (less is more fellas!) The lights needed to be dimmer. I would nix the TV opting for music all the time. People watch enough TV at home...set the mood. This place has some great specials, which are quite welcome in our country's current state. Even if you cannot take advantage of one of their specials their prices are all reasonable. It would also be nice if they had a separate lunch and dinner menu. Their Calzones are excellent if you are really hungry!After I finished my meal I chatted with the owner for a couple minutes who was quite receptive to my feedback. He was incredibly nice and hospitable. He offered me options for future visits. I truly appreciated him taking time to listen to me, especially since it was fairly close to closing time. I love supporting the little guy and this guy definitely deserves it!

I'm writing this review sober but I wish I were drunk. Would like to forget this dinner forever. Awful food, nothing that is authentic Italian, and poorly prepared. Cook obviously never spent one minute in cooking school. Watery, overcooked (reheated maybe?) pasta, wedding soup not even close to real Italian wedding soup, boring flavors, just crap. NEVER AGAIN.They could comp me a meal and I would REFUSE TO EAT IT. Yes, that bad.

Excellent little Italian restaurant.I've been twice and each time I've been greeted with friendly smiles and faces.This little gem is in a strip mall behind a Blockbuster and Papa John's.From outside it looks like nothing special, and once you get inside there is no change. Simple booths in this small restaurant.They have good deals for their daily lunch specials. Friday I think was the calzone special. Excellent. If you are on the fence, go Friday for lunch... the calzone will not disappoint.Surprisingly for a small restaurant, they do have a nice selection of beers. I think they had both Moretti and Peroni, so you should be able to get your Italian beer fix with your meal. The usual domestic beers are there as well.Parking is in a crowded strip mall with the usual smallish spaces, but there are plenty of spaces very close to the entrance.
