I have enjoyed many of their items including pastas, sandwiches (roast beef cooked Med Rare! Which is hard to find!!!) and more
But felt compelled to write a little review-blurb this morning
I went in for a sandwich yesterday at lunch. I told myself that 1/2 would do it and I was going to save the other 1/2 for later. Well, it was so tasty, I ate the entire sandwich. Yikes
So decided I would take some items home to re-therm for the weekend as My fridge and shelves were pretty bare
I purchased the Green Chile and cheese frittata , some holiday cookies, a balsamic chicken pot pie , Arancini rice balls and the Padua special chicken, among other goodies
I just finished the frittata, which was amazingly good. Just reheated in the oven for about 20 minutes so that the outer would be nice and crispy
It did NOT disappoint. It's really enough for 2,
but again, I ate the entire thing. (Stuffed)
I highly recommend this adorable eatery and have eaten there several times - never a "meh" experience.
Can't wait to try the other items waiting in my fridge for my pre-holiday indulgences. Nom nom -

I'm only giving a 2 star because the food actually tasted good but the service here is terrible. I shouldn't have even bought anything, but since I was already there, i did anyway.
The person that helped us acted like we were bothering her and could we just stop ordering things or asking questions. Customers can be soooo annoying! Some people just aren't meant to be in a service industry, and she was definitely one of them.
Came here on a recommendation from a friend but I wouldn't recommend to my friends. Nope. -

I was craving for some spaghetti and wanted to get fresh spaghetti noodles; so I Yelp "fresh spaghetti" and this place popped up.
I came here straight from work and at first I thought it was just a place where they make fresh spaghetti, but, little did I know, I walked into a hidden gem. When I walked in I was blown away by all of their food choices. I really wanted to buy everything, but I restrained myself and only got some fresh spaghetti with a small block of Romano.
They also have desserts options. Omg their pastry selection is to die for and they also have a gelato station.
They make fresh bread everyday, they sell wine, they sell pasta sauce, and other amazing things.
Went home and told my boyfriend we should dine in there and try everything that they sell.
My fresh spaghetti was so good. And the Romano just added that umami taste.
I think this place is my new favorite spot, I want to go back again. -

Are you looking to impress your significant other? Want to be an authentic Italian chef for a day and cook up some pasta with some real fresh ingredients? Look no further than Padua Pasta Makers! It's pretty difficult to find fresh pasta if you're in the DB/Chino Hills area. Whenever I wanted fresh pasta I've had to venture closer into LA or Hollywood. I discovered this place a while ago but never got around to actually visiting since I have no real business being in Upland, but one fateful day when I wanted to be super Italian and cook fresh pasta at home, I decided it was time to pay this place a visit. Parking was relatively easy, as there's a lot right across the street, but I imagine parking would be bad if it gets busy, since the lot's pretty small. The shop itself is relatively small, with some tables for those who wish to buy a sandwich and eat in. There are two rooms: the first one you walk into has a meat/deli section along with a cheese display and fridges with imported Italian sodas and alcoholic beverages. The next room over is the pasta section, with a selection of fresh pastas that are priced by the pound, as well as a very large and diverse assortment of sauces, oils, seasonings, and dry ingredients. I went with a pound of penne, a pound of linguine, a bottle of sauce, as well as some parmigiano. Once you try fresh pasta, you'll never want to get the boxed stuff again! Because it's fresh, the pasta doesn't need to be boiled for as long, so keep that in mind when you cook it. Also keep in mind that they don't last all that long in the fridge, so best to cook the pasta within a few days of getting it. Their items really aren't all that expensive either considering what you get and the quality of the ingredients. I'll definitely be coming back here more frequently for pasta and any ingredients I may need. The sandwiches they offer look good; I'll try those out as well the next time I come. This place is creeping up my list of favourite spots! If you're wanting to take your chef skills to the next level, head on over to Padua Pasta Makers!!!

Nice family owned and operated restaurant/Delicatessen. They offer home made Pasta, gnocchi, pasta marinara sauce, ravioli, home made calzone Bread (shall I continue?) deli meats, cheeses, sodas, wine and an assortment of homemade goodies that I can't even start to mention.
I ordered a pepperoni calzone that came with pasta sauce $8.95!!!! Are you kidding me, I thought it was a typo (look at the size of this monster in my pics)
The people are super nice and the service is great also.
Bathrooms are amazing and clean (I'm talking 5 star Hotel private bathroom nice)
Oh yah and the food is really good also lol!!
