I feel so lucky to have found such a delicious pasta place! The food wasn't salty, which I really appreciated. The pasta was especially amazing—the texture was perfect. The risotto was excellent as well. I think I'll be coming back often! If you park in the nearby public parking garage, they offer parking validation, so be sure to ask for it.

Amazing food! The calamari was the best I’ve ever had (I only remembered to take a picture when we were almost finished with it), and the pasta dishes were excellent. You can really tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The only downside is that there is just one restroom, but overall it was a fantastic dining experience.

Here's a comfortable slice of Tuscany served-up with pride. We were turned off by the noise and traffic at Grand Central Market across the street and opted for an evening here on the patio. My generous square of lasagna was exceptional. I was pleased with the culinary twist of creamy bechamel, and the refreshing lemon cello prosecco with fresh mint. Gracie mille!

Came here around 5pm and got seated right away, but by the time we left there was a line. Definitely recommend coming early ⏰ First off, the vibe. Outdoor seating with this slightly European feel, which I honestly did not expect in Downtown LA 🇮🇹✨ It just felt really nice and relaxed. Food came out super fast, which we appreciated. We got the calamari in zimino and the meatballs, and both were great — but also really good value. The calamari portion was generous (lots of squid 🦑), and the meatballs came in a solid portion too, like around 8 pieces. Not small at all. The house salad was kind of a last-minute order because we saw it at the next table and it looked so good… and yeah, no regrets 🥗 Really fresh, nice mix of veggies, just very well put together. For mains, I got the gnocchi and my partner got the frutti di mare pasta 🍝 The flavors were honestly so good. Rich, well-balanced, and just satisfying. I have to say — the seafood pasta was loaded. If you have eaten around LA, you know how rare that is 😭 They were not holding back at all, especially for the price. As for the gnocchi, it was more on the softer side rather than super chewy, but it worked really well with the

It has been 10 years since we were last here. The food is still outstanding. We came here on a Saturday afternoon and we were able to get in right away. The restaurant was full, but we timed it just right The food was great, starting with the Friti Misti. We then had the Caesar salad. Also good. For our mains, I had the Cacio Parpadelle with Chicken, and my wife had the Bianchi and Neri Pasta (Black and White pasta). We really enjoyed the food. The service was great and the outdoor patio was really comfortable and pleasant.
