De Vinci's Delicatessen & Catering - Valley Springs, California

decided to come try this place out after a hard day of work. i was told they didn't have meatballs so I tried out their chicken combo 13. That chicken was so plain and tasteless. I still got croutons in my "side salad" after I said no croutons. it was not worth $17!!!

Another post said it perfectly, the ravioli (and meatballs, marinara, and lasagna) tastes exactly like Chef Boyardee from the 80s. If that is what you're looking for, this place is 5 stars. I have yet to try the sandwich options, so can't comment, but I've heard good things. Many love this place, just not my expectation of Italian food, but who am I to judge...I'm not Italian, nor can attest to extensive exposure to authentic Italian food. (Although I did enjoy Fior d'Italia in the City, which is pretty Italian.) I can say though that the focaccia was fresh and a generous portion was given. Service was good. Place was clean.

I really want to like this place. I don't understand why Italian is so expensive. And I waited over 30 min for the staff to assemble my order that was already cooked and in the warmer in front of me. The food is OK on flavor, but a bit over cooked maybe from sitting in the warmers. It was just the price and service for me. Dinner for 3 for take out was over 100.

the lasagna has no sauce between the sheets. literally there's only a thin grease between the sheets and the top has a spoonful of sauce with cheese. i wish i took a picture cause its crazy to see only grease and pasta sheets stacked together. i ate the top that had sauce with some of the pasta and threw the rest out since it was just greasy pasta. tomato sauce is like the cheapest ingredient especially without the meat, i don't see why they couldn't of splash a little sauce between the pasta. not even asking for meat and cheese inside of it.

i had the Alfredo and it was super watery and milky. it tasted like garlic milk. there was almost no cheese in it and under seasoned. when i put it in the fridge it thickened to a brick. then when i microwaved it the next day it just turned into milky grease. i have no idea whats in it to make its transform so much. even canned sauce doesn't come out watery, thicken to a brick then microwaves to oil.

the chicken was very under seasoned and dry.

bread was decent, a bit stale. i don't know how fresh since its all plastic wrapped.

salad was okay. lots of white parts and big chunks of lettuce. maybe cut it up better and maybe use more of the green part of the lettuce.

the cashiers were nice and the inside looked clean.

i know they are a catering place, but i thought it was a restaurant that catered, not a caterer that sells warmed bulk food. in which case the food is a bit expensive, even tho its not super expensive. but still for its quality, its worse than canned that is way cheaper. so your overpaying for them to warm it up for you. I'd say its akin to cafeteria food, but honestly i liked the cafeteria food in school. this must be the cafeteria food they have in old folks home.

i assumed it was a restaurant that cooked semi fresh food that catered. but maybe it was my fault for assuming that. looks like its a completely frozen, shipped in packaged food place that just warms it up. if your going to sell me prepackaged frozen food then pass the savings on to me and charge less. i wouldn't expect to go to a cafeteria and pay more like its a restaurant.

We’ve eaten di vincis for years they catered our wedding 22 years ago in stockton. The girl at the window always makes my visit pleasant she is super friendly and fun.Tonight I tried something different. The minestrone soup which was hearty and delicious. Glad we have this location here in valley springs.

Such a disappointment. My mom and I tried this place for the first time yesterday. Food is completely mediocre. Chicken was lukewarm, flavorless, and was very dry, the blue cheese dressing didn't have a hint of blue cheese flavor, pasta was lukewarm and the pesto had a really bizarre off flavor. They also forgot $10 worth of items in my $50 order which is quite annoying as I never got a refund or any other offer from them even though I called to tell them part of my order was missing. They thought I should have to drive back to pick up again, which I did not have time for. Honestly, I think a lot of people in this area haven't ventured out far enough to know what good food is. This is not good food, and pretty questionable customer service. Don't think they make their food in house either, as they claim. Definitely will not be returning to this place.

Stopped by for a quick lunch and was surprised at the quality, quantity and taste of the food. We had pesto tortellini, meatballs, chicken artichoke soup, taco casserole and the buttered focaccia bread. Everything was perfect! Parking was easy with a 35" trailer and mega cab as well.

The young lady that served us was wonderful! My companion was joking back and forth with her and she handled him with absolute grace. I can't wait to go back!!
