Carolina's Italian Restaurant is serving up some of the best pizza in Garden Grove, CA. Pastas are made with homemade sauces and garlic bread, and craft beer is on tap.
The Fettuccine Alfredo with Shrimp was AMAZING ! They even gave a good amount of shrimp, most places give you a total of 6 :( but this place I forgot to count. Too busy enjoying the taste and also was able to share this meal with my husband. The jar of juice a new thing we tried! We loved it too! We will be ordering again soon! :)

I received the penne Al La vodka instead of the rigatoni, but everything was great! The Arnold Palmer Flavored Lemonades was so dang good not sweetened & comes with ice in a convenient cup with lid. The Garlic Knots came with 4 and marinara sauce really bomb, buttery & fluffy. The Homemade Tiramisu Cups is so light you can taste the coffee in the soaked cookies! One of my favorites I've had ! The 221 Sincere Cider – Granada: Pomegranate Cider ABV 5.9% has no sugar, vegan and gluten free so very natural and smooth light pomegranate flavors. Very much enjoyed everything !!

Extremely saucy Fettuccine Alfredo like it looked pasta drowning in sauce- had to dig deep to get noodles without them slipping back into the sauce. Sauce was alright but a bit more garlicky than I prefer. Chicken was cooked well.
Garlic Knots had a great crust to them, a little bit dry but the sauce helped a little. Overall a 6.8/10

Always huge portions, good quality food, love their creamy marinara, meat sauce, and pesto. Anytime I want pasta, this is where I order from. One order lasts me at least 3 meals. Their utensils also come in a neat folded napkin that is made of something thicker than paper, I'm not exactly sure what it is, but that detail is nice.
