With chef Antonia Lofoso at the helm, the house-made pastas and composed entrees are better than ever. Start with a superb cocktail , then venture over to the extensive wine list . Read more

Scopa Italian Roots have wonderful housemade pastas like rabbit lasagnette and a beautifully simple chitarra that give it the bustle and buzz as when the doors were open on the first week. Read more

Connie Chiu

Amazing Italian but so busy so kinda slow. The creste rigate is hands down the best pasta . Ricotta crostini , calamari , burrata , squash blossom , and brussels parm salad were amazing. Love the donuts .

After digging into housemade pastas like rabbit lasagnette and a beautifully simple chitarra , it’s not hard to understand why. Read more

Antonia Lofasa's hit Venice restaurant has a tight menu of fresh pastas , including the pappardelle with pork shank and arugula , that goes well with the house Negroni , prepared by barman Pablo Moix. Read more

The food here is amazing! The pork chop is one of the best you’ll ever eat, the meatballs are tasty as hell and the deserts are the perfect finish. BUT the staff are terribly rude.

Ricky Sherrill

I am so glad a friend picked this for dinner . Who knew this gem was hidden in plain sight on Washington Blvd. it's easily on of the top Italian places in town . Great wine list too.

Ross Sheingold

Everything was very good. So many more things to try, but on my first visit, the baby kale salad was surprisingly good, prosciutto and burrata was great, meatball hero was delicious. Riceball = meh

Bianca

Delicious starters, made with fresh ingredients . Try their aubergine or the burrata and prosciutto . And the home made pasta ! Good wine selection .

Chuck Coulson

Great vibrant environment and an awesome bar display with a great cocktail list ! Good Italian food although portions are a bit on the smaller side.

Becca Mochi

I love the ricotta crostini , scallops and all of the pastas , great cocktails too. There's an off-menu vegan pasta available. You really can't go wrong

Maria Gonima

Still reeling from my visit earlier this week. Pappardelle , oxtail and the homemade ricotta are top favs. Fun service with a smile. Cocktails were ridiculously good. Fluffernutter.

Phillip Sheppard TheSpecialist

If you are looking for a cool hip relevant social spot with excellent food, look no further. I feel like I am part of the festive party even when I go alone.

Wondering Feet

Loved the rice ball , rigatoni pasta 's sauce was also cooked to perfection. Friendly service , lively ambiance.

Edward Hutchinson

Awesome food and sharing plates. The drinks are great too but can add up if your having a big one!

Clark Giguiere

The Roasted Romanesco is delicious. This plate presents a variety of flavors and textures. The mint is an added kicker.

One of my favorite restaurants in LA.. squash blossoms are amazing for an appetizer and try the truffle pasta for an entree.

Sana M.

Can't go wrong with anything here, but my personal favorites are the squash blossoms , the rice ball , and the chitarra !

Damian Bayona

Must try the squid ink calamari . Chicken is good, though it's had a 30 minute cook time. Also, didn't try but they have fluffer nutter on the dessert menu ????

Jason H.

Pandemic update - very nice patio dining . Felt spacious and safe. Service and food are both excellent.

Alley

Some of the best handmade pasta I've had in a long time ❤️(pasta doesn't usually inspire a post from me).

Caroline On Crack

The NYC School Special is the best breakfast sandwich in town . You can't have just one.

Paul Fisher

Great vibe. Feels more like a buzzy bar . Wasn't blown away by the food although it was acceptable. I was expecting authentic Italian - it certainly ain't (IMHO).
