From a modest Italian deli known as L. Strizzi, Luciano and his wife Assunta garnished the American Dream.
Now…three generations later that flavor of Italian village life that was brought from the province of Abruzzo, Italy lives on here at Strizzi’s Restaurants.
From humble beginnings, we bring you our philosophy of family and freshness.
Enjoy!
Lively locale whipping up an eclectic menu of wood-grilled fish, Italian staples, burgers & more.

Great service great food what more can I say. Our party of 9 had a really nice time. The owner came over to introduce himself and give us a little history which was really nice. It always has a cozy family feel dining at Strizzi. I had the shrimp and spinach risotto on their specials it’s my favorite so creamy and fresh. I didn’t get more photos unfortunately I was too busy having a nice time with family and friends.

We are returning customers for 20+ years, and Strizzi’s Pleasanton knocked it out of the park once again!!! We had them cater a birthday meal for our family and picked up the food ourselves, and everything was excellent. Raymond and his team went above and beyond to accommodate a family food allergy, even creating a custom dish so everyone could enjoy the celebration safely. The customer service was outstanding—extremely friendly, attentive, and accommodating from start to finish. The food was hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious, and every guest loved it. Another fantastic experience, and we will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

We arrived shortly after 5:00 pm on a Wednesday, following a long day of travel. Service was prompt and friendly, and we were apprised of the early dinner specials. The salads were perfect, and all three pasta entrees were well seasoned and served hot. We had more than enough to bring home for a delicious lunch the next day. By the way, the cheesecake with fresh strawberries was excellent. Strizzi’s was just as good as we remembered 20 years ago when we lived nearby!

The food was delicious and the restaurant’s atmosphere was very pleasant. We went for dinner with my friends and my husband during the Dine Early hours, and we really appreciated that it included a free soup or salad option — such a nice touch. Overall, we had a great time.
The only downside was that our waitress wasn’t very friendly; she was never rude, but we would have appreciated a more welcoming and attentive attitude.
On the other hand, two gentlemen from the staff checked on us several times and were extremely kind and attentive.
That’s why I’m giving four stars: excellent food, a lovely atmosphere, and great service from them — I just wish our waitress had made us feel a bit more welcomed.

I’m giving this place five stars purely because the service was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment I walked in, My server Sydney made me feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. She was attentive without being overbearing, quick to help with anything I needed, and consistently friendly throughout the entire visit.
While the food itself could definitely be better — a bit more seasoning and refinement would go a long way — the level of hospitality more than made up for it. It’s rare to find a server that puts this much pride into treating guests well.
If you value top-tier service, this is a spot worth visiting. With a few improvements to the menu, this restaurant could easily become a standout in every way.

Strizzi’s Pleasanton needs improvement. The restaurant was fairly unpopulated for lunch. They had one server. I had to flag down another one just to have our order taken. The salads were adequate. The chicken for the caesar salad was delicious. All in all the food was fine but the service was less than attentive. The restaurant was also cold.

We always enjoy our experience here, but this review is for the party platter. I placed the order when the restaurant opened for our sports team, scheduled a pickup at 3pm, and had a wonderful experience. The food was ready on time and the team loved the meal. I’ll definitely repeat the order for spaghetti and salad for future events. If you give it a try, just know the party platter with lasagna has to be ordered 24hrs in advance.

My 1st time eating here and I wasn’t disappointed. The waitress was AWESOME. Her recommendation of the steelhead trout was a straight win. The trout had a slight char to the skin which enhanced the flavor. The trout was well seasoned. The vegetables were cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were a win. Definitely a 10/10 meal.
