                We were there to celebrate a Christmas Eve birthday and once again thoroughly enjoyed it. Cucina Alyssa has definitely become our go-to for this occasion. The hostess held a booth for us because I mentioned how we enjoyed where we set the prior year. Our server was charming and efficient, and the food was absolutely excellent. It was another successful birthday evening for someone whose birthday often gets overlooked, and we’re already discussing what we’re going to order the next time. Thanks for a lovely evening.

                This is our favorite restaurant in Huntington Beach! Last night we had the best halibut - nice size piece with the perfect simple fresh tomato sauce . Our server descibed our dishes perfectly and recomended dessert to compliment the wine we were having. It’s also beautifully decirated for the holidays. Highly recommend this old school favorite!

                We had a wonderful dinner for four at Cucina Alessa. I was able to book reservations on Open Table immediately. We enjoyed great dishes and the calamari fritti was exemplary. I recommend them highly.

                Went for a Christmas get together with 4 of my friends, I loved the festive decor! The food was good everyone liked their dishes. Our waiter was very nice but I did feel like we were wondering where he was a couple times, but it was peak hours on a Friday during the holidays so it was understandable. It was very crowded and a bit loud, I felt like I had to talk loudly in order to be heard at the other end of the table. But overall we had a great time.

                Went for happy hour. Surprised only available at bar. Had been going there for more than 10 years Did have good experience. Alphonso took care of us. Cocktails good. Pizzette delicious. Olives not worth it! Been going here since i bought home in 2000. Have had many family events celebrated here.

                Everything about this restaurant is welcoming and warm except the Hostess. She was very rude and had a bad attitude. I told Alfonso, our Waiter, and he said that he would speak with her. She is not a someone that that I would have greeting my customers.

                Delicious food every time. And the service is top notch! Adriana and Alfonso in the bar are two of the nicest people on the planet. When I walk in, everyone greets me with a smile and warm welcome. Keep up the great work! Thank you.
