This by far was some of the best hungarian food, very authentic. The tarragon soup, beef stew was outstanding. We also had Gelato, they say straight from Milan, and we also had a hungarian dessert. There's no complaints at all and it's a quaint restaurant. Enjoy, if you do go here. I'm sure their Italian cuisine is great too. I don't live in California, but when I return, we will come here again. Peter, the owner, top notch, great customer service. Thank you.

We were just so excited to try everything! Köszönöm szépen !

Overall, it was a good experience.

Maria's Italian Kitchen is the real deal. I've been to several Italian spots across the Valley and…read moreLA, but I was honestly shocked by how good this was--it truly feels like eating at a grandmother's house. Bart & I shared a side salad, the lasagna, and the baked rigatoni. Unlike other places where the meat sauce is watery, the sauce here is thick, rich, and flavorful. The baked rigatoni was perfectly al dente with creamy ricotta, but the lasagna was the absolute star--rich, cheesy, and exactly how I like it. Seating inside is cozy with a calm ambiance as well. Very peaceful and calm, no crazy loud music. It's also an incredible value; our meal was only $26 when we split the check ! They have a huge menu with pizza, sandwiches, & desserts like cannoli & molten chocolate cake. Plus, they have wine specials on Thursdays. This place is a total breath of fresh air compared to other spots. Thank you, Maria's, for putting so much effort into the food, Mama Mia~~~

From the moment…read moreyou walk in, the ambiance sets the tone, soft candlelight, a calm and quiet atmosphere, and an overall feeling that makes you want to slow down and actually enjoy your meal. The food is absolutely AMAZING. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. It is the kind of place where you find yourself talking about the food long after you leave. What really elevates the experience, though, is the service. The staff are incredibly pleasant, polite, and genuinely knowledgeable about the menu. They take the time to guide you, answer questions, and make sure everything is just right without ever feeling overbearing. If you want a cozy, intimate dinner spot with outstanding food and top tier service, Il Nido is it. I can't wait to go back.

We found parking in the back area and as soon as we entered we were greeted by the staff. My son ordered Pollo Siciliana and I got the farfalle al Salmon. I also got a glass of Pinot Grigio which is actually good. They give you a complimentary bread and an olive dip. I love the warm bread and the olive dip that comes with it is a welcome change from the ordinary. I enjoyed my pasta and the sauce is really rich and creamy. My son's pasta is good if you like tomato-based and not cream based sauce. My favorite is when they give you a complimentary tiramisu dessert. We were even given extra slices to take home. That's a nice touch that will certainly make us go back for more. They have a few tables and I would say it's a good place for a casual meet up or for families.

We ordered the spaghetti carbonara and farfalle, and both dishes were excellent. The carbonara was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with the salty bite of pancetta and a generous amount of pecorino. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. The farfalle was equally satisfying. fresh, flavorful, and comforting without feeling heavy. The atmosphere feels warm and old-school Italian, the kind of place where you can slow down and enjoy a proper meal. Service was friendly and attentive, and you can tell the kitchen takes pride in doing things the traditional way. If you're looking for authentic Italian comfort food made right, Spumoni is absolutely worth the visit.

Knowing it's flown in from Italy daily sounds like a gimmick, but once you try it, you get it. The texture is unreal--perfectly al dente and way different from your typical spot. I ordered the Cacio e Pepe and the Carbonara, and both were incredible. The Cacio e Pepe was simple but ridiculously flavorful, and the Carbonara was rich without being too heavy. You can tell they focus on doing a few things really well instead of overcomplicating the menu. Service was fast and efficient, and the whole place has a clean, modern vibe. It does get busy, so expect a bit of a wait, but turnover is quick so it's not a dealbreaker. If you're a pasta person, this spot is a must. Easily one of the best casual Italian meals in LA.
