Then you fry some garlic. Then you throw in some tomatoes, tomato paste, you fry it; make sure it doesn't stick. You get it to a boil; you shove in all your sausage and your meatballs. Ah...? And a little bit of wine. And a little bit of sugar. That's my trick.".. We settled in for Dinner at.. "Scopa Italian Roots", owner/Chef Antonia Lofaso does it right. A very welcoming, accessible and comfortable Osteria. The Lass drank glasses of Mathilde Rose Wine.. The Lad drank a glass of Espresso Martini and a glass of White Wine.. These libations were most thirst satisfying..:) We shared plates of Beets, Scallops Oreganata (perfectly cooked and wickedly juicy delish) and Pea Ravioli (al dente yummy.:).. We finished this superb meal w. an Affogato Sundae. Scopa was a highlight of our trip.. "Leave the gun, take the cannoli"..:) Best, Avram Clemenza Jr.

I work in hospitality and it's very disappointing to see my local favorite restaurant take a turn for the bad. It was a special occasion and I asked for 2 thing before arrival. Both didn't happen. (Booth and birthday dessert after dinner) Spoke to host upon arrival and before being seated and didn't happen. Thanks for taking off the steak tartar off the bill. Vongole over salted. Left a note on the bill because of how I tipped. Do better scopa. Thanks.

    Amazing experience at Casa 12! We had a party of 20 and were situated in the back area of the…read morerestaurant, which was perfect for our large group! All the servers took amazing care of us - they were friendly, patient, kind, and truly went out of their way to deliver the best service. The food was also great - everyone was extremely pleased with what they ordered. Highlights included the octopus, the branzino, the lobster ravioli. We appreciated that all the food came out at a reasonable time as well, despite us having a large party. Casa 12 delivers quality food and service for reasonable prices. Thank you to the Casa 12 team for an amazing dining experience!

When we were sat, we were sat right by the bathroom door, and the man who I'm assuming was the manager told us we could move tables when a different party left. We got started with a bottle of wine, then had to move all of our things a few minutes later to a table that was so so so close to other tables that I struggled to get out when we left. Truly every single dish we had was delicious, I think the gorgonzola pasta was a standout! The service was okay on the whole, towards the end of our meal a sweet lady started helping us out, and she was fantastic. Whilst we were dining, the entire back area of the restaurant was filled with a large group that was quite rowdy, and it did detract from the intimate, Italian restaurant vibe we were looking for. The desserts were also yummy and the manager brought over some limoncello for our troubles, however with so many amazing Italian options in LA, I don't know if we'd return. Parking was easy-ish for Venice standards, we parked in a $5 lot about a block away on the beach.

    First time coming to Felix, and I went for a girls' night on a Saturday night. We had a 7 pm…read morereservation, and we were seated within 5 min. Food: focaccia (sfincione) 10/10 Cocktail: 10/10 Pasta: 10/10 Such a beautiful Italian California cuisine.

Appetizers: Focaccia (sfincione) - 5/10 (GF rating 4/10) Super greasy, like, very. Make sure to ask for extra olive oil on the side, as that does make it better as they do have delicious olive oil. The bread seems like it's also cooked in olive oil, but frankly if they made their bread and had olive oil on the side it would've been much better. The bread itself though, ugh that whole bottom was wet in oil. Super unfortunate. Solid but oily as heck. Rice Croquettes (suppli in Bianco) - 5/10 (GF rating 2/10) Forgettable. Nothing special, no sauce paired with it. They're mediocre. I wouldn't get this again. Mains: Lamb Ragu (malloreddus) - 9/10 (GF rating 7.5/10) Extremely tasty. Pasta was very well cooked, lamb meat was perfect, as goes for the cheese on top and the sauce. Amazing meal. Would've been far better without having the subpar appetizers beforehand. Cheese and pepper pasta (cacio e Pepe) - 5/10 (GF rating 6.5/10) Non meat pastas aren't my thing, so take my rating with a grain of salt, as I would never get this myself. Girlfriend thought it was wayyyy too peppery, but that the pasta were cooked very well). Dessert: Panna Cotta - READ BELOW The panna cotta as a whole - disgusting. Jam on top was awfully bitter, quite literally inedible. The crouton like things were whatever. The panna cotta itself, as in only the white part, VERY good. After painstakingly doing our best to scrape off the jam, we were able to get to the base, and that itself tasted great (bar getting even a hint of the syrupy jam flowing into your bite). Service was fine. Didn't care for the ambiance.

The restaurant overlooks the marina with amazing views. Lots of parking but its not free. The food was better than expected. The calamari was very fresh and cooked to perfection. The bread was warm and soft. Went great with the olive oil and balsamic. The amateiciana was homemade and simple yet flavorful just like italy. The marsala was also very tasty with balsamic glazed veggies hitting the spot. The service was lacking though. We placed our order and never got checked in on following getting our meals. No one came back to ask if we wanted dessert or if we wanted the check. Not even coming back to refill our waters. The lack of service really sets this place back. But everything else was great.

There's plenty of parking that costs $2 per hour which you pay at a machine. The food seemed pretty authentic. The calamari appetizer was fresh and had fried shrimp in it too which was good. The chicken Marsala was also very tasty. The free bread was warm and soft. I believe it's beer and wine only, not a full bar. The servers speak Italian which also adds to the authenticity. Our server was very nice and attentive at first. But once the food was dropped off, she didn't check back until we were finished with all of the food. Luckily we didn't need anything during the meal, but it would have been nice if she came back to check on us. Overall it was a good experience with authentic Italian food.
