Had a wonderful lunch with customers and coworkers today. The food and service was excellent. Everything was great. We'll be back soon.
Fantastic family owned restaurant my family has been going to for years. There is a lot of love in their food and they have the most amazing freshly baked bread. The lasagna is also my favorite!!
One of the best Italian restaurants on the Westside of Los Angeles. No frills good food, good portions and reasonable pricing for what you're getting. Recommended appetizers: clams/mussels appetizer, shrimp in tomato-mustard sauce. For Primi go with the Bolognese or Vongole For Secondi try any of the veal dishes. The scaloppine Pastina is my favorite. I've been eating here for 30 years and the food quality has always remained consistent. That's there secret. The same chefs have been there a long time. And they know what they're doing. Same long time owner too. I am happy that the son of the owner has been grooming to eventually take over the business. Long live Pastina!
This was our second, and we've loved it each time. Excellent food with even better service. Congrats! We will be back.
This is our new favorite restaurant in Los Angeles! Nancy (the owner) came into the Cosmetic department where I work and gave me her card for her amazing Italian restaurant. She is so sweet and beautiful! Our dinner tonight was incredible! The chicken was tender and juicy, the fettuccine Bolognese was the best I've had on the west coast. And don't get me started on the meatballs! Great wine list and the liquor selection is ridiculous. I can't wait to try EVERYTHING on the menu!
This time I went at lunchtime, and I was blessed that I had the privacy, the calm, the waiter Luis as always impeccable in the way he serves, the 6-star food, delicious. For me, this is one of the best in Los Angeles for Italian food. For those who like Lava Cake, I think the video should show how delicious it is. Excellent!
Fantastic Italian restaurant in the heart of Westwood. The owner was very friendly and the food was off the charts. I asked if it was possible to make my favorite dish despite the fact that it wasn't on the menu and to my surprise, he said yes. Highly recommend.
5 Stars! The neighborhood is lucky to have a gem like this. The only thing better than the food was the service. The owner, Frank, and his son were so hospitable. It was our first time dining here but we will definitely be back and with friends. It looks like a great place to have a private party too. We are definitely considering it for a 40th birthday or a baby shower.
