First review of 2025 and it happens to be a 5 star one! This place is a gem! My husband stumbled upon it while in the area, looked it up on Yelp, and saw it had great reviews. We decided to take my mom, and it turned out to be a cozy, local, low key, casual spot. Service was good too. Since the business is named after ravioli, we had to try it, and my husband also wanted to sample a sandwich. You get to choose the type of ravioli and sauce. We ordered the meat ravioli with bolognese sauce and the chicken ravioli with pesto sauce. My husband also got the meatball sandwich. Everything we ordered was divine. All three dishes arrived hot and fresh. The ravioli was served with two pieces of cheesy bread, which were absolutely delicious. The ravioli was cooked to perfection, and the sauces were packed with flavor. We all shared the meatball sub, which was also fantastic. Honestly, between the three of us, one ravioli dish and one meatball sub would have been enough, but I'm glad we got to try both sauces. We'll definitely be coming back often!

I went here for lunch one day during work, and I wasn't disappointed. I got a pulled pork sandwich and it was massive. That alone can hold you off for lunch and almost a full dinner. Very flavorful! 4 out of 5 stars

Pretty solid smoked brisket sandwich!! For $15, it was a quality sandwich and very tasty. Location is a little off from downtown, but that helps with the parking situation a bit. I would come back for sure!

The Ravioli House is a nice little deli that serves sandwiches (hot and cold) and their ravioli, pasta dishes. The shop is small but offers some outdoor seating but primarily indoor seating. Place your order, pay and they will bring to your table or get it ready for takeout. One restroom only. *Funny sign for fellow yelper Lee. Not that he has this issue at all. My wife and I split the Meat ravioli with Pesto sauce. It comes with cheesy bread. Also, we added one meatball. The ravioli was thin with not much filling, but cooked al dente. The pesto sauce was good! The meatball ($5) was a good sized meatball I thought the meatball was really tasty, flavorful. I wish we got another one. I would come back again if in the area.

I was randomly browsing and found The Ravioli House, which I am so happy about. This is going on my regular lunch rotation when I am in San Mateo. This is an Italian deli that does Italian sandwiches and raviolis. I got the East Coast sando with everything on sourdough roll. The price is actually really good for the Bay Area and the sandwich is huge. Next time, I want to get one of the raviolis because they look amazing. You can also get freshly made ravioli to go so you can cook at home. There is a lobster one that I really want to try out.

This is a tasty gem on the outskirts of the main drag of downtown. So there's lots of parking within walking distance. They have sandwiches and affordable ravioli plates. They serve all their ravioli with garlic bread too! The staff is friendly and we even saw locals come through. I'll definitely be checking this place out again! Even a simply ravioli with marinara was super tasty and nostalgic. Worth stopping by if you're craving flavors of Italy by a small buisness.

Where has this place been all of my life??? I am so upset that I've lived in the bay for 30 years and I've never been here!!!! First off, all of the employees were so nice and patient with the 5 of us. There isn't much seating for bigger crowds, so be prepared to take your food to go. We came in and it was packed, but we got lucky that 2 tables left as we were ordering, so we were able to eat there. The chairs and tables need a little updating lol wobbly seats and tables. But whatever. It's a deli not a 5 star restaurant. We all got different raviolis and sauces to try. I loved everything!!!! If I had to rate them, I would say the 1. Chicken ravioli 2. Spicy sausage ravioli 3. Cheese ravioli 1. Vodka 2. Pesto 3. Bolognese Next time we need to try the traditional meat and I think there was another ravioli. And the marinara. I was sad that you can't get the lobster ravioli to eat there. But next time I'll take some home to make. The sandwiches were bomb af too. The bread was really good (and the cheese bread with the pasta). The East coast was packed with meats and jalapeño garlic sauce. It was perfect. And the mojo was good too. The sauce had a strong cumin flavor to it. The pork on it was delicious and smoky. I will be back next week lol
