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. Your host, Vincenzo Maddalena, would like to welcome you to his restaurant for a unique dining experience of authentic Italian cuisine. Buon Appetito!

Vivace is where we celebrate birthdays, holidays and any other excuse to dine there. The food is consistently wonderful. The tomato-based sauces are outstanding, pasta is cooked perfect and the quality of the meats e.g. Molinari sausage) is great. The menu presents a wide variety of dishes including a favorite- orcchiette con salsiccia e rapini - and a lasagne surrounded by a bechamel sauce that is incredible! Service is always outstanding. Last night we were served by Haden who was attentive, personable and totally on it for our orders. The dining areas feel like you’re in a neighborhood restaurant but still has a an almost NYC feel. Eat at Vivace, you will be glad you made the effort!!
