World-renowned Italian Neapolitan pizzeria L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele arrives in Los Angeles spring 2019. The first U.S. location of the historic pizzeria featured in the film Eat Pray Love, L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele is located in the space which once held Hollywood’s beloved Café Des Artistes. L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele will serve traditional Neapolitan pizza, using the same recipes and importing the same ingredients used at its origin restaurant. Upon opening, Head Pizzaiolo Michele Rubini, who trained in Napoli, will serve the concept’s two classic pizzas, Marinara and Margherita, with plans to expand the menu with the location’s own unique twist in the future.
Inspired by Italian courtyards, which serve as central gathering points for locals, guests who visit the all-new L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele is seated in “il cortile” the restaurant’s quintessential Hollywood garden, surrounded by lush greenery.

Made a reservation for 6:30 so we would have a better chance to eat outside. No table outside was available when we arrived. Offered to wait but apparently the schedule did not allow for that. Despite speaking with the manager they could not and would not allow us to be seated outside. The manager explained that they had made an error in there scheduling and therefore it wasn’t possible. He did offer us desert on the house to appease us but the experience wasn’t as envisioned. We still enjoyed the food but felt as though keeping to the schedule was the most important thing to the manager. The manager was seen multiple times hovering watching his staff and making sure things were flowing. I understand it’s a business but given my experience that’s how I felt. The food came very quickly. The pizzas came shortly after receiving your appetizers and as a result there wasn’t any space to even put the pizzas on the table. This is usually a sought after quality but constantly making room on the table to fit the food was my experience. My wife literally had to remind us to slow down. The experience just felt rushed. Never the less it was quiet enough to have conversations and I enjoyed the quality of the food.

Food was great. Definitely would recommend this place to anyone who would like to have some takeout Italian food. But overall the experience was not great because the flies were everywhere throughout our whole meal, which literally makes it impossible for customers to relax and enjoy the food. Another thing that makes me not want to come back is the parking direction from the restaurant. Upon arrival, I asked their security guards if the restaurant has a lot to park, they directed me to park in the lot across the street without telling me it's a valet lot. I could've parked on the street and walked over without having to pay an extra $12.99. But they didn't seem to care to disclose this information beforehand. And what's more ridiculous is that I had to park my car myself in this "valet lot". Only having good food is not enough for a restaurant to be great. But the restaurant doesn't seem to understand this. Probably will not come back again.

Had a very enjoyable lunch it was my second time going to the restaurant and I wanted to try the pizza this time outside. The pizza was absolutely delicious I love the tomato sauce they use, we had the margarita pizza it was so so good. Only problem is it was A very warm day and it was pretty hot on the patio. You might have to have more umbrellas out in the patio. I definitely will be going back again.

This was my second time here and again, did not disappoint. The resto is as cut as ever. We had late dinner (coming from a musical) so there weren’t a lot of people or they were at the end of their meals. My party closed down the resto. We had great service from Chivon. She was friendly, attentive, and helpful on food recommendations. Our food was delicious for the most part: margherita with mozzarella pizza (super yummy esp. while still hot; special that day); mozzarella with arugula white pizza (could use a little more sauce); beet salad; arancini (least favorite); vongole pasta (noodles were fresh and al dente but not hard at all; loved the clams and sauce); bread pudding (one of the best); and passion fruit panna cota (special that day; great balance of sweet & tart). Love the dough of their pizza. Super thin but the crust part has enough of the bread. (I’ve been to the original location in Napoli, but only had the margherita there.)

This was an average food experience at best. The pizza was just about. “C-“ I’ve made better pizza than this in my home oven. The outdoor patio was spectacular and the service was good, not outstanding. I don’t think I would come back for lunch or dinner, but maybe for a drink?

Great pizza! It's an offshoot of the original shop in Naples, Italy. Good variety and excellent pizzas. Salads good and pastas decent. Go for the pizza...that's what they do great.

The pizza melted in our mouths. The Citrus Salad was a perfect choice. Ditto, the beautiful fruit salad. We devoured both the bread pudding ( gelato, too) & the ‘’… Frankie. Nutella - stuffed + gelato) I also had a perfect doppio espresso. With perfect La crema. Our Server & assistant were wonderfully attentive. My nieces, 11 & 8 were spoiled! They had just been driven from Sacramento and were famished. The three Margheritas arrived within five minutes. Spectacular. They were pleased that I chose DaMicheli for lunch Grazie Mille, Salvatore Viscuso

I'm not sure how this place has so much buzz serving such mediocre food. The arancini was actually terrible; a salad special was supposed to have peaches and blue cheese but had tiny bits of both over what was basically a bland pile of greens. The pizza was supposed to be the star but was just so-so. Not really Neapolitan--more like dry flatbread with toppings. Our server was nice but our bottle of white wine arrive room temp. And we were basically asked to vacate our table so another party could be seated. Strange.

The restaurant, on McCadden, is not that easy to see. It has a modest sign that is largely covered by greenery. Immediately I felt welcomed because the very well dressed, discreet Security Guard, showed me the entrance. The welcoming experience continued when I met the very pleasant Connor. Had a Lovely table on the patio. (Restaurant has 3 dining areas - patio, interior & a garden. Shared the calamari & 1 of the pizzas. The sauce for the calamari was outstanding. Definitely enjoyed my leisurely dinner & the ambience. The delivery of the food was perfectly timed. Basically no street parking. so 1 is "stabbed" for $12 to be Valet parked in their very jammed packed lot. Watching the car jockeying after dinner, with other patrons, was jolting. Please, how hard is it to have filtered water? I bought 2 glasses of wine @ $14 a pop. Why should I have to pay $8 for a bottle of water. Little courtesies like this should be provided. Makes the experience nicer.

I am saying that with a lot of conflicting thoughts. Unfortunately, the pizza is not in a real Neapolitan style. We had a montanara with three times the needed cheese and with shredded basil on top that was not really tasty. In addition to it, we did order Arancini, but they were frozen inside. The service was kind of poor, and when we asked for the dessert, they didn't understand us and brought us the check... Hope it will improve asap

Delicious food and cool vibe. Couldn’t get enough of the roasted cauliflower fondue and the pappardelle pasta with short rib was outstanding. Topping it off was the wonderful bread pudding with sweet, creamy vanilla gelato. Can’t wait to come back.
