Never a dissapointment.5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWe thought we were back in Italy!Best Italian food since I was in Tuscany. Authentic and delicious. The burrata with prosciutto and arugula was delicious and rich. Two of us had the risotto with seafood with clams and chunky pieces of shrimp and calamari. It was perfectly prepared. Our companion had the linguini with clams and loved it as well. For dessert we shared a flourless chocolate cake which was lovely. The owner gave us samples of wine before we chose a bottle of wonderful Italian white. I cannot wait to go back again!5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMThe bestsFamily run with great concern and dedication to provide every possible accomendation to us as dinners .Dr. S.Lane4/3/2013 12:00:00 AMLike being in ItalyThis is a really lovely restaurant.

Excellent food and service, wine and menu recommendations and cozy, well appointed restaurant. We got there early and had a quiet first hour to our meal and then the restaurant really started filling up and the noise level increased a lot, but it was great for us because we were well into our delicious bottle of wine by then. Thank you for a wonderful evening. We felt really special and well taken care of. We'll be back!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect!Perfect as always! Love this restaurant.

We had a delicious meal. We were the only ones in the small downstairs for most of our meal. There is an upstairs, hard for me to climb,so I've never seen it.
The problem is: no valet parking. There is a big lot in the back to which the restaurant is not privy; I guess some people park there. On the east side street there is a pay lot; I forget the cost. We found a metered spot on Sunset, pretty unusual, but it was a week night and 7 PM. Both side streets are hilly; hard for some of us to walk.
We go back; it's certainly one of the top Italian restaurants in L.A!! Pasta with almond paste!! I didn't try it!!2/13/2013 12:00:00 AMYou can imagine yourself inYou can imagine yourself in a small restaurant Italy, and the food is traditional but also very cutting edge interesting options available.2/2/2013 12:00:00 AMJust got back from Italy,Just got back from Italy, and this place reminded me of my trip... The owner and service was great. No complaints.... Love this place!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMThis restaurant was amazing.This restaurant was amazing. I travel to Italy quite frequently and I felt as though I had gone back. While it is quaint, it is romantic. Food wasn't too expensive but extremely delicious. Everything was handmade and filling. I would make a reservation.2/16/2013 12:00:00 AMAmaroneIt is a find. Charming, almost European-like.
The staff was attentive asking numerous times if everything was good. Water glasses filled without asking.
There were two of us, so shortly after being seated, a small tray of items, olives, cheese,,, arrived...two of each. That was a bit skimpy since each one was so tiny.
Good wine list.
Food was presented beautifully. Beef was excellent, lamb was quite tough.
If we understood our waiter correctly, the dessert was only a tray of typical Italian American finger items.
Not appealing when tiramisu was desired.2/1/2013 12:00:00 AM
