2 things: * The mustard green zitoni pasta is an excellent vegetarian dish. It felt healthy and included lots of vegetables, which is rare for a pasta. * The mushroom arugula pizza is not a pizza. It's a thin crispy pita with toppings. read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for years and somehow had never made it to Little Dom's. After finally trying it with a couple of friends, I can definitely see why it's so popular. We went on a Thursday night, and the restaurant was packed, so I'd recommend making a reservation. That said, the atmosphere still felt casual, warm, and perfect for a dinner with friends or a date night. We started with the Little Gem salad and the calamari. The calamari was seasoned really well, though I wish the pieces had been a little more plump. We also ordered the fish piccata with asparagus, a side of smashed potatoes that were perfectly crispy and absolutely delicious, and the spaghetti. Everything we tried was flavorful, and I ended up finishing every bite of my fish. The service was friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe made the whole experience even better. We ended up walking to Jeni's for dessert afterward, but next time I'm definitely saving room to try dessert here. Overall, this was a memorable meal, and I'm so glad I finally stopped in. I'll definitely be back! read more

Such a cute restaurant, love the vibe and overall location. Nestled in beautiful neighborhoods of los feliz. All the servers were excellent. 10/10 Ive only tried their brekky but would love to come back and honestly try everything! Cappuccino was classic Salmon pizza 10/10 the pizza crust is super flaky and thin with yummy toppings. The smoked salmon was delicious. Blueberry ricotta pancakes 10/10 Definitely recommend. Ill be coming back forever read more

Decent food that's a bit pricey. I enjoyed this better than Malibu farms easily. Fresh ingredients, reminds me of First Watch or another place with similar vibes. The food was good, nothing special, but it was satisfying. My favorite thing were the breakfast potatoes. They were seasoned and crisped to perfection, best breakfast potatoes I've ever had to be honest. If I was in the area with family again I'd go back but I'd prefer other options. read more

I've lived just down the street from Little Dom's for years and have never eaten there. Why? I have no idea. My wife suggested we order take out and try their chicken parm entree. So we did and chose sautéed spinach for the side. We pulled up and I ran into get our order. I was not very happy that an AUTOMATIC gratuity of %15 was added to our bill. Tipping, in my mind, is usually for "service" and putting food in a bag simply isn't it. Strike one. The chicken parm ($30)was just ok. Good but not truly great. I think Donna's and Jon & Vinny's chicken parm are both superior in overall taste, size and value. Strike two. The spinach was nicely garlicky and a big portion. Staff was also nice and the order was ready promptly. 6.5/10 Just ok. read more

Little Dom's: The Internet Acts Like This Place Killed Their Nonna I genuinely don't understand the low rating for Little Dom's. Is it life-changing Italian food flown in from a tiny village in Sicily by candlelight? No. Is it consistently good comfort food in one of LA's best neighborhoods? Absolutely. I eat here a few times a year because it's one of those easy, reliable dinner spots where you can walk over with friends or family and know you're going to have a good night. I was just here again tonight and ordered two appetizers for the table the sourdough bread and the rice balls. Get the rice balls. Trust me. Crispy, cheesy little happiness grenades. I also ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, which I get basically every time. The noodles and sauce just hit for me. Yes, it's Americanized Italian. I suspect that's where some of the dramatic Yelp outrage comes from. But sometimes I want comfort food, not a lecture from someone who studied abroad in Florence for six weeks. Service was good not great, nice guy but only checked on the drinks once the entire time we were there. For four people ordering four mains, two appetizers, a soda, and two alcoholic drinks, the bill came out to $177 before tip, which honestly felt pretty reasonable for Los Feliz in 2026. The ambiance is classic neighborhood Italian spot energy. Nothing wildly fancy, but that's kind of the charm. Plus, being in Los Feliz is part of the experience anyway. After dinner we walked down the street for dessert and turned a solid meal into a great night. Not every restaurant needs to reinvent pasta to deserve a return visit. read more

In the area and stopped at an old favorite, Little Dom's. During the week, it is counter service at lunch time so you order at the bar and find a seat. Food and drinks will be brought to your table. The tuna salad was surprisingly ample and light, perfectly dressed and dreamy (sorry!). The pizza was really a flatbread with a crisp, cracker thin crust and flavorful toppings. We shared the 2 dishes for a just right late lunch. Ambiance is the same charming as ever. Still popular with an almost full dining room in the middle of the afternoon. Lively and the service is light and friendly. Recommend. read more

The dimly lit, intimate ambiance, reminiscent of cozy pubs back home, created the perfect setting for my gathering of five. The food was decent, nothing extraordinary, but it was satisfying. The service was friendly and attentive, and the prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food. The pizza was thin and crispy and the chicken parmesan comforting and well seasoned. Despite not leaving a lasting impression, Little Dom's is a great casual recommendation for anyone exploring the charming neighborhood. The $25 Monday supper is an incredible deal and a great option for treating yourself or a date on a budget. read more

To the wonderful team at Little Dom's, I am sending a note following our team dinner. My boss recommended your restaurant, and we had a truly excellent experience. We particularly enjoyed the variety of dishes we ordered. The espresso martinis were fantastic, I ended up having two to start! For appetizers, we shared two salads (the green salad and the gem lettuce salad) and the Beef Carpaccio. The famous pizza margherita was a huge hit; it disappeared so quickly that we had to order a second one. I ordered the chicken parmesan based on a strong recommendation, and it was outstanding. The desserts were definitely the highlight! We ordered three different types, including the tiramisu, a chocolate mousse, and a lemon pistachio cheesecake. We also couldn't get enough of the rice balls and ordered three portions so everyone could try them. Thank you so much for hosting us. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere, and we look forward to coming back soon! read more

My favorite breakfast spot in LA! The perfect order? Get the blueberry ricotta pancakes, potatoes, sausage, and the eggs fungi to share with a friend. They also give you these individual pots of coffee which I think are so darling. Also, if you're coming for breakfast you can just walk in and order at the counter and sit down anywhere you like! read more

I've eaten at Little Dom's for dinner several times and have always enjoyed it. Love the dinner options. The vibe is good. More NY than L.A. which I like. The service has always been good and breakfast today was no different. The breakfast menu options are nice. Something for everyone. The cruller donut was a standout for me. It was fresh and delicious and not too greasy. The polenta dish was fair. I added salt and ordered a side a toast to go with it. A regular order only comes with one egg but I ordered an extra egg on top. The vibe is casual but fun and cozy for dinner or breakfast. It was a rainy morning so it was an especially comforting experience to be in the warm, woody decor that is Little Dom's. Street parking can be challenging in this area but persevere and hopefully you'll find a parking spot. read more

Little Dom's - Breakfast spread - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Spent a rainy lunch here with a friend who insists on visiting every time they're in town and now I see why! The interior is adorable, with leather booths and a bar at the front where we sat. The windows are nice and large: the best place to people watch on the street with a latte. Since they close after lunch, our server let us hang out at our table for over 2 hours to chat over tea and coffee. He was very accommodating and our food came out quickly and pipping hot! To start, we split the rice balls appetizer, which were perfectly fried on the outside, yet warm and sticky on the inside with cheese and plump rice. It paired really well with the marinara sauce on the side and I appreciated the extra bit of Parmesan and fresh herbs on top to make the dish more visually appealing. For my main course, I ordered the calabrese fried chicken sandwich and absolutely loved it! The toasted brioche bun was buttery, soft and slightly sweet. The chicken was very well seasoned, battered and fried, and well complimented by the acidity from the pickles tomatoes and heat from the aioli. The side salad was a great palate cleanser between bites too. I ate a bite of the ricotta blueberry pancakes and can attest that they are very rich and heavy, so consider splitting it with someone if you aren't ravaging. Totally worth the order though because it is incredibly delicious! read more

Uncertain why they have so many low star ratings because if you're craving classic Italian in a spot that feels warm and homey, Little Dom's hits the mark. It has that "nonna's kitchen but make it restaurant" energy that just works. The only catch is the wait, which can be brutal, so reservations are definitely the way to go. Everything we ordered tasted exactly how you want classic Italian to taste: no twists, no surprises, just solid, comforting dishes done right. The wine selection is okay, mostly the usual dry Italian options, but nothing that made us want to linger over the glass. If you're particular about your pairing, bring a bottle you actually love and just pay the corkage. Overall, it's a great spot when you want straightforward, cozy Italian food without the fuss. read more

Such a cute, cozy neighborhood feeling with really fresh, flavorful food. The service was amazing -- I believe it was Monica, who was so sweet and took great care of us. My favorites were the calamari and the vodka Cavatelli was my show stopper of the meal, loved the chewy texture and the sauce was creamy and decadent. Overall, the meal felt indulgent but didn't have me feeling heavy. I could tell they use fresh ingredients! Love this adorable Italian joint.

I came here with my boyfriend for a little dinner date before a show at the Greek theater. I made a reservation for 5:45 but we ended up arriving early at 5:15 and thankfully they were able to accommodate us. They had just opened so there were both inside and outside options available! Here's what we ordered: Rice balls: So yummy dipped in the marinara sauce! Pretty big in size. Ricotta Cavatelli: Vodka pasta is my favorite and I had never tried it in this shape before. 10/10! Sea Urchin pasta: This was a special that was offered, my boyfriend ordered it and wasn't a fan. I also tried it and thought it was way too fishy and it overwhelmed the sauce it was mixed in. He sent it back after hesitation but the staff was very sweet and accommodating. The manager even came up to us and said not to worry it would be taken off of our bill. Chicken Parmesan: Loved the crispness and they served us such a big size! Lemon IceBox pie: This was so refreshing and not too heavy after our meal. The honey complimented it so well. Overall, I would definitely come back here! The only thing is I wish they'd offer garlic bread and Caesar salad. read more

Little Dom's pleasantly surprised me for brunch. We loved our server and the food was hit after hit. I split the eggs bruschetta and green salad with a friend. Plus we all had the ricotta pancakes - super fresh and flavorful. The eggs on the bruschetta were perfectly cooked and paired well with the pesto and tomato. The potatoes accompanying the burger were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We hardly had to wait to get in and had a nice booth for our party of four. read more

Very disappointing experience. We waited over an hour for a table on a Tuesday night, then nearly another hour for our food after ordering. We were seated for about two hours total and never had our water glasses or drinks refilled. Throughout the meal, our server never checked in on us, and the only person who asked how things were going was a manager who stopped by once. It took an hour + to get our plates cleared and a final check. For my brother's birthday, I asked if they could do something special or small and they brought out a brownie--but then charged us $14 for it. The food was good, but not nearly good enough to make up for everything else. Between the excessive wait times, being completely ignored by the staff, and unexpected charges, this was honestly some of the worst service I've experienced at a restaurant in Los Angeles. read more

Was finally able to try this LA staple that everyone raves about. While the food was really good, I was a little under whelmed with the whole experience. I made a reservation for Friday night and we got seated right away. I ordered an iced tea and they gave me a craft of it, which I loved. We had the rice balls which I found were just ok. Then I had the ricotta cavatelli which was great and the perfect portion size. My husband had to pappardelle which was also great. Once we received our food, we never saw our server again. She didn't come over to check on us and finally another server asked if we needed anything and brought us the check, so I found that a little odd. read more

Great food with a trendy but cozy feel. I tried the Rice Balls, Wood Grilled Artichoke, Beef Carpaccio, Lion's Mane Mushroom Crab Cake, Chicken Parmesan and Ricotta Cavatelli. Everything was delicious! The stand outs for me were the beef carpaccio, mushroom crab cake, and the ricotta cavatelli. I also got a negroni and it was made perfectly. For dessert I got the Lime Icebox Pie and it was amazing. The service was great, too. I will definitely be back! read more

We had a fun time before our drive to North Hollywood for a play. The place opened at 5 PM, and you MUST have a reservation. We got a great table sitting in a semi circular booth in the middle of their small dining room. The restaurant reminded me of a "retro train car" with lots of photos on the walls of old celebrities, and old fashioned chairs and tables. We ordered plenty of food, but I forgot to take photos of the 4 desserts we ordered. How we wished they had lasanga (ONLY made on Friday's for their special that night) and their chicken parmesean is served without pasta or vegetables. Instead they charge a ridiculous $11-$13, side of pasta, asparagus, sauteed spinach, etc. when every other restaurant I've ever been to includes it. Very Disappointing! (If you wanted to add sides of veggies & pasta that dish becomes very expensive and makes no sense). There were lots of unique Italian name pastas we had to have explained to us, we had never heard of them before, so we were afraid to try something we had never heard of before. The only time I would ever go back here would be on a Friday night, which is impossible from Orange County with the traffic, but we would want to try their lasanga. read more

Little Dom's - Chicken parm - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ambiance and service was excellent so nothing the waiters could do here. But the food was pretty subpar. It was a cold night and some comfort Italian sounded good after an evening stargazing at the Observatory. Busy but they got us sat quickly at a table outside which at first was freezing but eventually someone got the heat lamps working properly. The drinks were fantastic. The pizza was paper thin and the sauce wasn't very flavorful. The chicken Parm the sauce tasted like jar Ragu sauce. The side of pasta with garlic and butter was the highlight of the meal. I feel the kitchen ingredients may be subpar to save money and resting on location and history to keep it crowded. I would go back for the drinks and maybe try some other dishes to see if something was good. Also tasted the Pappardelle and it wasn't great either. So 3 out of 4 dishes missed the mark. But 3 out of 3 drinks were great. read more

Good times and good friends go hand in hand, which is why I was happy to be invited to join the lovely Te-See & charming Anton for drinks at Little Dom's. Plus, I've been wanting to check this place out, so it was a double win. We arrived a few minutes before they opened and there was already a line to get in. Apparently, this place is popular and seats at the bar filled up fast even though they don't offer Happy Hour. The menu features classic Italian American dishes. However, Chef Brandon Boudet is from NOLA, so there's even a Fried Oyster Po-Boy on the menu with an Italian twist. The restaurant emits old school NYC charm with classic leather booths. The vibe is neighborhood friendly, and the staff will greet you with a warm smile. Bartender Veronica was fantastic and engaging. They had a specialty cocktail with proceeds going to benefit Cal-Fire. It was called Station 35 and was comprised of Gin, Lime Cordial, & Pomegranate juice. My companions requested it with Tequila instead of Gin and Veronica happily obliged. I had a sip and it was very tasty. The LD Cosmo caught my eye. The combination of house-infused Lemon Vodka, Mandarin Napoleon Liqueur, Cranberry Cordial, & Lime took this Cosmopolitan to the next level. It was delicious. We didn't order any food but the aromas coming out of the kitchen smelled so good. I definitely need to come back for a meal and perhaps even try the Monday Night Supper, which is three courses for $25. *Reservations recommended for dinner. Brunch is walk in only. *2 hour metered street parking. read more

Some friends invited me to try out Little Dom's on the east side and it was such a delight to try this local gem. Located in Los Feliz, Little Dom's is the neighborhood institution. Upon walking in you can definitely feel the classic Italian restaurant vibes and the tables were filled with people on dates all the way to large parties like ours, with kids an adult alike. We ordered a few of their classic dishes, and the highlights for me were there an archini and spaghetti and meatballs. The portions were generous, the wait stuff were super kind and welcoming, and this is definitely a kid friendly location. They had something on the menu for everyone. I also have to say that they're tiramisu was 10 out of 10, I could have eaten three more servings. I definitely want to come back to try more of their pasta dishes and a few of the other items that are server highlighted are their classics. But for sure Little Dom's is worth the trip out to the east side, and highly recommend for large parties and if you were coming with kids read more

Hubs and I love New Orleans. We couldn't go to Mardi Gras so we searched up LA restaurants where we could have Mardi Gras eats and found an article about Little Dom's and their Chef who is from Nola. I have always wondered what this place was like, as my kid takes some lessons at a nearby art studio. Add that to the article boasting of yumminess and Nola favorites and we booked ourselves a table the night before Fat Tuesday. The place was hopping when we arrived. Had to wait a little bit for a table but got seated right at the time we booked. The interior was made up of booths and tables. Felt like we were in New York or someplace not LA. The website said we might see a celebrity or two, and we actually did the minute we were seated. That night they had a special menu of Mardi Gras eats and that is what we stuck to ordering. We ordered the roast beef Po-Boy, bbq oysters, gumbo and Crawfish Monica along with Primm Cup and other drinks. Our waitress was super nice from start to finish. She even brought out an order of jambalaya balls (the only item on the special menu we didn't order) on the house, so we could try those. Everything, including my Primm Cup was really good! I'm not sure what their regular food is like but their Mardi Gras food was delicious! Served sampler size, the portions were just perfect for the 3 of us to share .We got to try everything and the best, we still had room for dessert. We ordered the King Cake and the beignets with raspberry sauce. Both were outstanding and my kid pulled the plastic baby out of the King Cake! For an adult this meant a free shot but for a kid the waitress gave ours, an option of various gelato flavors. So kiddo got a second dessert and raved about the taste. Next year, she has to buy us the King Cake, cuz tradition, says so! It was a really fun night out! Loved the atmosphere, the service was outstanding and the food and drinks were delicious. We will most definitely go back! I hear they got a good brunch! read more

Went in on the night of July 4 and they had our back. Food was great, service was great (Andre helped us out), definitely eating here again

Food is good. Service is subpar, which is an understatement. The bartender seemed like she didn't want to be there.

I'll start with the fact the fat it's candlelit cozy and the staff are lovely -- the food? Stinks. Pizza is like flopped out wet cardboard nearly tasteless except for a repugnant Burger was blah -- my bf forced himself to finish it. Do yourself a favor and go to the window !! Spaghetti looked like minestrone bizarre Clams fine Fried rice balls fine how do you fuck up a fried rice ball Salad fine it's hard to fuck up a salad Honestly one of our besties loves this spot and I thought my memory couldn't be that bad but it was!

Good spot for a sort of Italian-American version of brunch. 3 of us were able to snag a nice sidewalk table right away on a Sunday. - Italian Tuna Salad: my wife liked this quite a bit, it looked good and did not skimp on size. - Buckwheat Polenta and Egg: very much like a savory breakfast porridge. I quite liked it, something like what I imagine an Italian grandma in the foothills of the Alps might whip up. - Grilled Toast with Nutella and Jam: hearty slices of toast, jam is homemade raspberry. Not bad, my 5 year old daughter thought the bread was a bit too rustic. - Fried Potatoes: simple, small smashed potatoes fried semi-crispy. I liked it. - Olive Oil Cake - small but tasty and well baked, a bit of a citrus burst of flavor too. - Coffee: good as an Americano, a bit tart for and Espresso. Typical modern hipster style these days. Out the door $90, a bit splurgey but good and a bit different from the norm. Friendly service. read more

Came to the restaurant for the first time this past Tuesday for a friends birthday-- our server started us off by asking what we'd like to order. We mentioned a few items we wanted to start off with, our full party had yet to arrive/etc-- she then proceeded to ask if we've ever been there before judging by what we've ordered for our party so far, going over the list of items ordered and announcing to the table (like we had no clue) that we're 6 people and it "isn't much".. Her tone was guilt-trippy and visibly made my friends, birthday person included, hella uncomfortable. I called her out for her shpiel ending with that question rather than starting with it-- to which she responded she just assumed at least one person has already been here before. The hospitality was more hostile than hospitable, shit first impression honestly. We perked up for the birthday baby and trekked past the awkward moment. I had a few things-- The pasta was delicious, pizza was OK-- my friends ended up ordering two post guilt trip and not finishing it lol. The arugula salad was the favorite-- balanced the items on the table perfectly. Dessert was a tiramisu and absolutely loooovely. read more
