So confused to why this place doesn't have 5 stars. Party of 8 dining last night. Great service. Amazing tasting food. Will 100% go back. Go visit. Need places like this to thrive. Solid Italian food in the valley! read more

This place is complete trash. From the drinks to the apps to the entrées it was all terrible. Don't even get me started about the management. I honestly can't believe a place like this exists especially in that area. I'll give it a few more months and it will be gone. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time or money here there are many other very good Italian options within a 1 mile radius of this location. read more

I took the advice from Yelp, as a new restaurant in my area. My wife and I had a great experience and do recommend the food. Sizes are acceptable, and prices are standard for this kind of ambiance and service. Kudos to the chef and I wish you the best. It feels good to sit inside again, after many months ! read more

nexperienced cooks and staff. Bad food execution at premium prices. Our waitress was very sweet and personable. The wine list was decent although did not offer a proper red by the glass to accompany seafood. The Little Gem Cesar offered a thick unbalanced dressing and canned anchovies with the texture of gummy bears. The Cacio e Pepe was wrongly made. The cheese was not Cacio Romano or pecorino Romano . It had very little pepper and the risotarre (starch water) was nonexistent. Not much flavor. The Lobster tail in the seafood pasta was rubber and the mussels were foul. The entire meal for 3 with wine was $327.00. I was really hoping it would be decent. But.....it wasn't. There's a reason why it had last minute availability, I figured we'd try it for Fathers Day. I felt so badly about choosing this place that I ended up buying the meal rather than my wife taking us out. Go over the hill for Italian. Mozza , Chi Spacca, Marino, Da Michele etc. read more

This was the worst restaurant ever we went to for a birthday dinner and a manager/owner and salted our party and my food never came out and nobody ever came to our table and he almost got in a fight with us because he said we were horrible people and please nobody ever go to this restaurant I will clog the owner/manager he said I don't care if you ever come back to this restaurant again read more

Charged us 18% service charge for a table of 2. Maybe bc our bill was high?? Our server barely did any work, it was the hostess who took care of us majority of the time so I'm confused why the service charge was added. Bad for business. read more

Came here on Saturday night with friends, who highly recommended it. Had a 7p reservation. Did not receive our food until almost 9p! I was starving and it ruined the evening for me. The owner was ignored us until we got our over priced food! Our appetizers were served at same time as entrees -2 hours later! Apologies were given but mainly excuses! I will not be back Also, you are packed in like sardines and it's loud. Do yourself a favor and skip this overpriced, pretentious and mis-managed joint! read more

I took my daughter here for dinner. She had a pasta dish that she enjoyed. I had broiled lobster which was totally tasteless. Caesar salad with anchovies was OK. Service was slow, although we were almost alone and it was early. We had to ask our server to bring wine for the dinner. With an extensive menu, I hope they do better with their other offerings. read more

If you want to judge this restaurant for yourself just order the seafood pasta. I mean, if it was just mediocre I wouldn't have done this review but it was REALLY bad. How could the chef even agree to release this dish? It had the foulest smell right as it was placed in front of me. The whole thing tasted like the wet dog version of fish. It was so bad. And I ALWAYS always take half my food to go, but this time I just left it there. What the heck? What a waste of my money! I am so angry I even decided to go check this place out cuz of the false ratings. If ur lucky enough to read this review please make a bold statement and don't go so the restaurant can at least change the chef or something. Yikes! read more

Had dinner there for the first time on July 15th and everything was wonderful. The food was delicious and the service was OUTSTANDING! From the busboys who attentively kept out water glasses full and table clean to our delightful server Julia. She is so sweet and was able to answer all our food questions, along with making excellent recommendations. Will definitely return. read more

Went in to dine yesterday and the staff member (Asian guy didn't catch his name) was so rude. Was really looking forward to eating here but due to his behavior we walked out. Please don't spend your money where you are not welcome or treated kindly. read more

Dinner last night. Expensive. Ordinary. Thirty dollar pasta should be special. 3rd time there and likely the last time. Pretty empty. One thing that I can't stand...you get some bread, it's warm and tasty, if you ask for a refill they bring you cold, getting stale bread they grab from a table that left it over. Nope. I'm done. read more

We really enjoyed our dinner. I had the chicken breast with corn/asparagus sauce and fries. It was great. We also had the salmon which was very good. The service was excellent. I plan to go back soon! read more

Yesss! Beautiful food! My favorite on Ventura Blvd! The customer service was great and appetizers will fill you up! read more

Went last night for the first time. It was superb. I had the spinach salad, which was sweet and tangy and salty, and surprisingly delicious. My main course was spaghetti with ricotta and roasted tomatoes. The pasta was cooked perfectly and this was so good I could eat it every day. We split the Panna cotta for dessert, and it was yummy. With a glass of wine and tip, the bill was about $70 each, which is pricey. But the service was great, I loved the ambience and I can't wait to go back. read more

Came in to try their happy hour. Meatball sliders with caramelized onions were juicy and delicious. There are a great selection of happy hour drinks and food. I decided to follow it up with an item from their specials. Short ribs with truffle gnocchi was amazing. Short Ribs was tender and full of flavors. Great service and food highly recommended. read more

Great food and service plus this is that rare restaurant these days quiet enough to have a conversation.

Very expensive place for very sub par food. I got the beet salad and goat cheese which had no flavor and the goat cheese was hard and store bought. Whole dish needs some sort of sauce or at least some salt. Tuna tartare was next, same exact issue, just raw fish on raw avocado with some home fried chips. Absolutely no flavor or sauce what's so ever. Had to ask for salt to make it palatable. Next I got the branzino special at a whopping 45$. Soggy skin, full of oil, this time way over salted. Dish looks an absolute mess, puddles of oil over a very acidic tomato couscous. Tiramisu was next - decent - a little bitter but acceptable, nothing special. Place was about 1/3 full at prime time on a Saturday. I would avoid this restaurant until it goes under and someone else tries their hand at this location. Service was good but I never got my second glass of wine. I do not recommend at all. read more

My third visit here. Met friends at this location on Monday night. What a perfect spot! Casual, relaxing, and lovely ambiance. Food was really good. Ordered beet salad, tuna tartare, pasta with truffles, and one chicken and arugula main dish, and sorbet for dessert. All enjoyable! Is this a dining adventure? Not really. But everything that we ordered was solid. read more

Too pricey for food ...that is good but nothing extraordinary. More restaurants close by that are better in prices and quality of food . read more

Dined here a few weeks ago and I'm giving it a 4 star, not for the food, but for our server, who was friendly and attentive. Surprisingly, there weren't many people dining on a Thursday night, around 7'ish. There was a total of 3 tables including ours, probably 2-3 more tables with diners in the patio area, and 2 men sitting at the bar. The food was mediocre. We started with 1/2 dozen oysters and Caesar salad. The oysters were fresh and delish and the dressing on the Caesar was good. For our second course, I had the Branzino and my husband had the Lamb. Beautiful presentation, but lacking in flavor, especially the Branzino. Not sure if I'll give this place another chance but for now, we'll continue to dine at Vitello's! read more

Fell in here last week..took a chance because they have an outdoor patio...we were greeted by a waitress who right away told us we could either "sit @ the bar, or at a table outside that wasn't on the actual patio..." (turn off).....ok...more than 1/2 the inside tables were empty, and 1/4 outside was empty...but the owner quickly offered that we sit @ a cozy table for 2 on the patio...Our waiter was friendly, gave us time to read the menu, suggested a really tasty white wine....we're a bit picky, but love food! For me not eating meat was a bit of a challenge, so I settled on the salmon, for my boyfriend, the swordfish.....We got one of the salads, they served big chunks of mixed greens, we'd prefer if it was chopped...the bread was 3 sml artisan rolls, served w/herbed butter, good...4 would've been better...we asked for more! The salmon was a generous portion, was hot, but the asparagus & mashed peas were cold, pretty good, the swordfish was warm, we didn't send back bc we were starving!! We thought they went out of their way to create a menu that's a bit too complicated...I'm sure it all works, but for those who prefer simply delicious hot food, create a few straight forward dishes?? Our waiter was very friendly w/other patrons, us too, but it takes away from the actual service when he's giving the history of his life & can't be flagged down for another glass of wine! Idk, the place has potential, not the kind of place you'd go once a week, a bit pricey, but maybe they have a Sunday brunch? read more

We were excited to try this restaurant and arrived promptly for our Open Table reservation at 730pm Saturday 2/27/21 The restaurant had plentiful outdoor seating perfect for COVID. No one was at the front to welcome us so we went inside and waited to be greeted but just felt ignored. When we were noticed by an older nan who appeared to be the owner manager all he said was we have no tables. We said there must be a mistake as we had a reservation. He just looked at us w a blank stare and said I know. There was no effort to apologize or suggest a solution.. just nothing! He ruined our Saturday evening. We will not be back and will tell all our friends to stay away. read more

We had the misfortune of going to this "restaurant " on Friday. There was 6 of us sitting outside. The wait staff was totally overwhelmed, and had no clue what to do. After we ordered it took a full TWO HOURS for us to get PART of our dinners. The owner came out several times and he did nothing to improve the service. Needless to say we will never set foot in that loser restaurant. I will hope that everyone I know will steer clear also. read more

Worst ever. The food is ok but I do not feel welcomed in this restaurant. Sadly, I will not go back. Very disappointing.

I really want to like this place because I live 2 blocks away and they are one of the few restaurants in town that make their pasta in house, however after tonight i wont be returning. We arrived at 6:40 pm to a pretentious hostess that attempted to make us feel bad cause we didn't have a reservation. So we sat at the bar. The highlight of the meal was the bottled water which was delicious (sounds really condescending but its true and really is good) We started with the lobster bisque which tasted like tomato puree with a subtle hint of lobster. Then we shared the bolognese which also lacked flavor along with the veal Milanese which was OK, and looked great, but Ive cooked better at home and I'm not a chef. Both wines by the glass we ordered did not taste fresh. Service was good and friendly. There are so many other restaurants in LA that would have had better food for the $129 I spent. Musso and frank, Petit Trois to name a couple. Thankfully Casa Vega is a block away so we could drown our disappointment with margaritas. read more

Relaxing spot, good atmosphere, good food, I'd come back for a date night or if I end up hosting friends/family.

I never use yelp and or post reviews when I go out . But sadly I had a bad experience when I decided too stop by , really bad decision -this place is a mess. Food was not up too par especially with the prices , you expect good fresh quality but was not. I wouldn't recommend anyone coming and spending their time& hard earned money here . NEVER COMING BACK . read more

Food was amazing!!! Only drawback is the the restaurant seating sits on a busy street- but don't let that stop you! Great food and great service! read more

Ughhhhh this place was a bust. My fiancé and I came here for dinner and the food was UNSEASONED and the drinks were BEYOND SWEET. Like???? How do you serve potatoes and spinach with ZERO SALT. The steak was OKAY, but half of it was just fat. My fiancé got the lobster pasta and literally got a bowl of spaghetti with a whole half of a lobster thrown on top...... How the hell is someone supposed to eat that??? We both ordered margaritas and they were SO SWEET, I could barely drink it. I also overheard the table next to ours sending their drinks back because they were too sweet. The service was okay, but some things we asked for were forgotten. To be honest, the busboy was more helpful than anyone. We ended up paying $200 for a crappy experience. I'm annoyed. read more

Oh...my...goodness! Amazing food, stellar drinks and fabulous service & staff. We have been to this location in various iterations, but this is, by far, the best food & finest dining. We hope it lasts!!! read more

This place is OKAY. My fiance made a reservation for the patio and when we arrived, we had to wait because they overbooked it. We were seated after 10 minutes by the host. Granted, it was a busy night and the waiting staff seemed pre-occupied. The free bread was so hard, and we weren't offered more. I had to ask someone to refill our waters multiple times. I ordered the clam pasta, and it was light but nothing to write home about. My fiance ordered the lobster risotto, which he really enjoyed. It was a typical over priced fancy restaurant in LA. It was an okay experience, but not planning to return. read more

Delicious food. Great wine list. Probably the best service I've had in the valley. 10 stars!

Delicious food, service was excellent. Great choice of wines as well as the cocktails, yummy. We will be back soon.

Unfortunately, I did not have a positive experience. The risotto was bland, even with the addition of lobster and bureaus. I would not recommend this dish. Additionally, the frozen dessert was nothing to get excited about end the entire dinner felt overpriced for the quality. read more

We had a very enjoyable dinner. The servers were friendly and efficient., the atmosphere was very pleasant, and the food and cocktails were very good. We'll definitely be going back. read more

A lovely restaurant in a great location. I'm all about supporting local businesses and NOT big corporate chains. I am especially pleased to see they support local artists by displaying their works in the the restaurant. It makes for a lovely atmosphere. I'm thinking about buying a piece from one of the artists whose work is hanging there now. I was very much taken by the works of Cheryl Goettemoeller. It's fun to look up the artist whilst enjoying wine from their nice wine list with the tuna tartare app. read more

Love it!! We went for my daughters Birthday and food was amazing. She even repeated her dish because it was that good. It was limited seating but I think is was it was the manager who was very accommodating and the staff was good too. read more

we tried this restaurant again. was very disappointed. completely inedible. the pasta with porcini and black truffles has zero black truffles. zero truffle taste. the pasta was was all stuck together just a mess. could not eat it. we also ordered the ceasar which had very bad quality shaved parm. flavorless. the entire meal went in the trash and we ended up ordering from pizanna instead. if you want good pasta get it from la cava, or one of the many other great Italian restaurants. or go out to Madeo on Sunset. for the best pasta. but this place is terrible. never again! read more

The food is great, the desert is awesome, try their tiramisu, one of the best I have had. The service was very bad though which is a pity as this could have been an all five experience, but the waiter, his lack of service and high expectations made it a so so experience. Food was great. read more
