Ferraro's Italian Resturant

Their Signature Baked Rigoletti & Broccoli is next level, something you can only get here. Growing up in Ventura this dish has been a long time favorite and a difficult one to replicate. Heavy on garlic and oil but super delicious. Order it crispy. Spinach and Gorgonzola Ravioli is another tasty dish not to be missed.

Ive been coming here for over 30 years. It never disappoints. We moved away almost 4 years ago and have yet to find an Italian restaurant that even compares. Even the house salad kicked ass. Pictured is the seafood fettuccine. We ended up splitting it and were so full we each couldn't finish it. But we are also getting the lasagna. Mmm. Oh, pizzas are great too.

The five stars is for the food, the service needs some help. I love Ferraro's food and would willingly wait a good amount of time for it. But PLEASE staff, if it is going to take an hour and a half to get it ready, be honest about that. Don't make us wait, standing in the cold, on Main St, with 20 other people who are also waiting. Just say an hour plus instead of 45 minutes. I am happy to wait at home. And two doors is a bit confusing, especially when some people get their food at the first door and others are made to pay and wait longer for the second door to produce your food. Again, THE FOOD IS WORTH THE WAIT, just hoping on the next busy night like New Years Eve, the staff are able to be honest about the wait time for food. And because it was busy, and you can't go through the bags of food, you (and this did happen to me) end up with an item missing from the order that you paid for. So thankful the place is open again and happy they still have their amazing cooks, because they are truly the heart of this establishment.
