If you’ve ever enjoyed the 888 dining experience, you know it’s not like your average Bay Area Italian restaurant. Conveniently located in the heart of downtown San Carlos, 888 Ristorante Italiano brings authentic flavors of Italy to Laurel Street. 888 was created from a passion for Italian cuisine that’s deep-rooted in the Maddalena family. Owner Vince Maddalena and Chef Raul learned their craft through growing up in the restaurant industry. Specifically, Maddalena’s, owned by Vince’s dad for over 30 years in Palo Alto. When Vince’s dad closed shop, Vince knew he wanted to continue sharing his passion for food with the public. And so 888 was born! When it comes to cooking, we never take shortcuts. Almost all of our menu is made in-house and we keep things fresh by changing our dishes as seasons come and go. Enjoy our intimate dining experience with a significant other, family and friends or just let us know if you have a large group and we would be happy to accommodate.

    A wonderful dining experience! This restaurant is so classy. White table cloths, separate salt and pepper grinders on each table. Very good prices. The Veal Scallopini was beautifully prepared. The house-made Tagliatelle pasta with Prawns featured five jumbo prawns in a delicious sauce. We had the Affogato for dessert, always presented in a tall martini glass and oh so flavorful, the best version in my area. Perfect service from our waiter, Antonio, made it for a memorable evening. Bravo to all!
