    My first time dining here, and I'm a fan. The outdoor seating ambiance is comfortable and relatively quiet for a busy restaurant. Everything I ordered was absolutely delicious. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. This place is my new go too for Italian cuisine

    What a hidden gem! Despite numerous reviews, I had no idea this place existed. But wow, I’m so glad I stumbled upon it! Every dish was delicious, and the ambiance was great. Parking was a bit pricey at 22, but it was right next to the restaurant’s parking structure with a 6 validation fee. So, I ended up paying 16. But most importantly, I had a great time with my friends.

    Went for lunch. We sat outside and enjoyed the garden feels. Everything we ordered was delicious. The staff was very helpful. Will definitely come and try a different dish. My new favorite place for some fresh pasta!

    Great food, great service, great patio! I've never sat inside so I have no idea what's in there except the good food that comes out Roasted bone marrow was delicious. I really liked the waffle cut toast that came with it. Tortellini was also delicious. So delicious that I forgot to take a picture. Finished it off with a cappuccino.

    It’s rare to find a restaurant where the food, service, and atmosphere are all equally on point. Stepping into this oasis downtown feels like walking into a trattoria in Italy — such a treat. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in LA. Tips: They don’t take reservations, so plan to come early. We arrived at 5:30 PM on a Saturday, and it was already quite busy. We waited about 25 minutes, but it was part of the experience — while waiting, you can watch fresh pasta being made through the large glass windows of the building behind the restaurant. There’s also a peaceful water feature and some benches where you can relax. Service: The hospitality here is wonderful. We were warmly greeted and waited on by someone who I believe is the (or of the) owners — a charming Italian gentleman who made us feel like family. He walked us through the menu, offered thoughtful recommendations, and was clearly beloved by many regulars dining that night. Food: Starters: We had the garlic ciabatta, scampi alla busara, and a Caesar greens salad. The garlic bread was rich with real garlic and butter — dangerously good! The scampi in tomato sauce was absolutely delectable. Entrees: We ordered the bianchi & neri, bigoli della nonna, and tortelloni burro salvia. Each was excellent, but the bianchi & neri really stood out — the cream sauce is unique, rich, and completely addictive. It’s the signature dish for good reason. Dessert: We finished with the olive cake, which was among the best I’ve ever had. It came with two berry sauces. Not overly sweet — just complex, fragrant, and perfectly balanced. Overall, an unforgettable dining experience. If you’re in LA and love Italian food, don’t miss it.

    One of my favorite pasta restaurants! The food is absolutely delicious, and even Europeans recognize the quality here. The combination of fresh salads, perfectly cooked pasta, and flavorful risotto is simply unbeatable. The prices are reasonable, and the taste is exceptional. It’s a place I would recommend without hesitation to friends and family visiting from out of town. Definitely a must-visit!

    One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to! The food is consistently amazing — the pom adore was outstanding, the linguine vongole was flavorful and fresh, and the bruschetta was absolutely delicious. This was my third time visiting, and it won’t be my last. The owner/manager is also incredibly kind and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend!
