Terroni - Still eating service was the worst she asking to tack the food will eating - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The food here is what will always keep me coming back, with that being said I've been here a handful of times and it has always be supper delicious the service has always been amazing it reminds us of our favorite location back home sy kitchen. A home away from home in other words, from the appetizers to the desert I've loved everything I've tried here! They are amazing at accommodating your needs. yesterday we stopped by supper excited because the hostess was able to squeeze us in inside very very last minute & we were so grateful! Unfortunately our service was not good at all, our server was tending to us as if we were an inconvenience to her. We love to eat out & both come from restaurant / customer service fields and we were astonished by the service we received, especially because every other time it was amazing service. We can tell by the look on her other tables that we weren't the only ones with the lacking service she just seemed so in a rush no time to check on us at all not once did she come as how it was or if we needed anything. The food was dropped and that was all the service she gave. Anything else we needed we had to inconvenience someone else. I mean the man who came up and poured our wine was amazing I wish he was our server or even the sweet hostess! I am an amazing tipper like I said I come from restaurant experience but I simply couldn't she dropped the check didn't even look at us she dropped it with her side eye and kept on her marry way & I was like wow she must not care about her job no thank you no have a good night not ONE WORD. I was thinking I never want to return because of it but like i said the food is simply too good and because this was my only bad experience I will be back and make sure to ask for anyone but her as a server. read more

The most authentic Italian style pizza in Los Angeles. Perfect crust with the right proportion of toppings.

Cute little Italian spot near the grove. Came here on a first date with a guy. Nice, relaxed atmosphere, and the food is really good. I got a truffle and sausage pasta. Can't remember the name of it but it was really good. Also got the spicy Paloma drink with max Al, Aldo yummy. I'd definitely come back. They have valet. Street parking is challenging but I got lucky. read more

Terroni - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I used to love this place but tonite they served me bad mussels that made me throw up in their bathroom (and I'm not one with a weak constitution) I told our server but on one came to our table to discuss. On our way home we called and the manger who told me that the chef said there was nothing wrong with the mussels. I grew up clamming and muscling and I shouldn't have eaten the ones they served me by the smell alone, but I had brought my friend there to celebrate his birthday and didn't want to make a fuss--BIG MISTAKE I can no longer support this establishment read more

Ok. So I've been here mAny many times pre covid. I loved the food here but it has 2 issues that come to my mind immediately. #1 you can NOT modify anything.( I guess that's good cause you can eat the food and enjoy it for what it is. #2 you have to cut your own pizzas. So during covid when I came, it was the first time I was double dating with my future wife and her sister. Honestly I think I got the better sister. I think everyone would agree too. We were on time and they sat us within 2 mins of checking in which was amazing. I hate waiting and we didn't wait to be seated, HOWEVER, my girlfriends sister and her boyfriend were late. Immediate red flag but it's ok. We ordered drinks and some appetizers for the table. The eggplant dish was INCREDIBLE. brasalo was great. The salads all tasted fantastic. We got the goat cheese salad and the arugula and mushroom. Both great but needed a bit more dressing. I was scared to ask because I didn't want them to think I was modifying anything. The lamb pasta was INCREDIBLE. The pizza was great but my girlfriends date cut all the slices and all his dirty hands were all over it. Unfortunately I was hungry so I ate it. I might have covid now but I'll have to go get tested and find out. As for the sister and boyfriend....:stay tuned to find out read more

This place is pretty good! Craving some authentic Italian and this place hit the spot. Came around 6 and were sat immediately. No wait! Sat in this really cool private outdoor patio that looks like it was built specifically for COVID accommodation, but it was so cute! Very well designed. Order some bread to start. Super soft slices. Came with oil and tasty peppers. No vinegar though. I ordered the bucatini al'amaticiana... the bucatini was perfectly al dente and the guancale in the alamaticiana was incredible. Mom ordered the tagliatelle. Also delicious. Though both pastas were slightly under seasoned IMO. The DO NOT do any addictions, subtractions, or substitutions. Also had two glasses of the Barbera D'Alba and I enjoyed that as well. I'm new to wine so I can't accurately describe it lol. There is a 3.5% service charge to "keep the kitchen staff competitive" or something like that, which makes me wish they'd just include gratuity for the wait staff in the bill too. Overall, the pasta was good, the place was cute, COVID SAFE, and we didn't have to wait. They deserve to stay open! read more

The past here is amazing so good I wanted to post a picture but I ate it all haha. Also the olive a must order for appetizer. Would recommend read more

Overall, a nice place. The friendly waitress made lunch extra special. She was attentive and fast. The food was good. The competition for Italian food in the area is tough as there are many great places but if you don't want to be standing or waiting for 1 hour to eat Italian in the area come to Terroni. Giving it a 4 outta 5 Marones because the Calamari was mediocre. read more

This is a great expression of Italian food. It's consistently delicious. I love the Nizzarda salad.

Came here with my friend for dinner. But I didn't like the service. And their menu... to hard to understand... The waitress brought me a dirty cup for tea. When I asked her to change it she didn't even apologize ... It was like ugh.... ok She didn't care if we stay or leave... Well nothing say about their kitchen... tried just starters read more

Get a happy hour drink and eat elsewhere.

FULL REVIEW: Came to Terroni for a late night Italian dinner after a long week at work. (9:30 res) I was seated promptly, next to the bar in a booth ... they are mandating masks (as per LA county) which is the right thing to do.... However contradictory to the table setup as there was a table of 4 to 5 inches behind the booth... but whatever! FOOD: I started with the pane, olive, taralli $6 and the Tagliere Del Salumiere $25 ... hefty price for apps ..... BUT when they arrived I was BLOWN away by the portions. Great start to my meal and exciting presentation! Then moved on to the pasta which was composed of a short tube noodle, spicy "homemade" sausage, and a lackluster leafy green, tomato... etc Pasta was cooked PERFECTLY AL DENTE .... Hard to find! The sausage was just pure disappointment.... Sausage needs to be OVERseasoned and this tasted like a vegan attempt at a sausage. Also I don't think they know about salt..... (reoccurring theme) The pasta did have a good overall taste and some flavor but really had the opportunity to shine with the salt in the sausage or at least after/during plating ... Then onto pizza ... I originally asked for the Don Corrado, in which I loved EVERY component especially the potato's... however it contained GORGONZOLA? What!!! I asked to remove it and the chef denied ... FINE ... respect ..... I can respect that IF the flavor is perfect due to the fact you forbid me to use any salt, pepper, Parmesan at my own leisure (read the other reviews) I ordered the Mangiabbunm pizza instead Sadly the flavor was not perfect ... nor good really;( The pizza was heavily undercooked... had the flavor of steamed broccoli water, with just a heavy dairy finish... and mushy base (crust was eh) And ..... featured the spicy Italian sausage..... and ZERO.... I MEAN ZERO salt, seasoning ... etc The vegetable broccoli... CAN be done correctly but you have to take into consideration how much water they have.... It completely over ruled the pizza .... Finally I ordered the simple Verde salad ... described as organic mixed greens, balsamic, olive olive Fantastic light fresh perfect ... EXCEPT NOT. They literally took spring mix from a box .. put it in a bowl.... Halved 6 cherry tomatoes, throw those in... OH and a HANDFUL of Kalamata olives? The tomatoes raw, unseasoned, literally just what! (And they weren't delish tomatoes that didn't need seasoning) just cherry big tomatoes .... The spring mix was just box to bowl... I mean chop it? Throw in an herb? SALT AND PEPPER perhaps? DRINK: Limoncello to start ... good Valpolicella .... (What got me through it) SERVICE: Felt as if I was inconveniencing the staff ... not checked on ... understaffed maybe? (It was nearly full at 10pm) ... also slightly annoyed if I asked a question.... Just no OVERALL: Skip it.... Really not worth the price, service mediocre, ambiance great! So yea sorry Terroni, but it's a no read more

. I was a little put off by an aggregate of 3.5 stars out of 1300 reviews, but I was told it was great... and off we went. Menu says the pasta is made fresh & in house daily, so I was excited to give it a try. The drinks came first and they were ok. Light, watery and just ok. The gnocchi alla Simi was delicious. Not usually a fan of gnocchi but this was tasty. - Light and fluffy gnocchi with a very very light sauce & a fresh smear of cheese. The Tagliolini in canna a mare was a pretty presentation. The flavor of the sauce was very thin and light. There was 1 prawn and 1 scallop with several calamari, clam and a mussel. The scallop and prawn were perfectly, perfectly cooked. The restaurant is basic open air concrete, leather, metal and wood with tables and booths. Very much no frills, expected prices and west LA waitstaff. I'm glad we gave it a try but it just wasn't memorable enough for the price & ambiance to return. read more

Terroni - Don Corrado Pizza - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My Favorite Italian restaurant in LA. Food is awesome. Great ambience, strongly recommend!

Decided to go for lunch and try this restaurant with my wife. From the start to end it was terrible. The waiter Romeo is rude, arrogant and seems like he doesn't want to help or want to work. Eye rolls are his favorite answer to your questions. Having an allergy they won't even take off an ingredient as we had to plead our case before accepting to do so. Pizza is bland (capricciosa) no substitutes allowed and they don't even want to give you Parmesan. We wanted to order more food but seeing how the waiter and owner behavior was we decided to cut it short. The mezze e mezze was ok, but they couldn't even tell us which cured meats and cheese comes with the board. Definitely not an authentic Italian place, authentic Italian restaurant are warmer and make customers feel welcomed. Go elsewhere and don't spend your money here. They even charge you a dine in fee. read more

My new favorite place for local happy hour! I wish their happy hours were longer (it's from 4-5:30) but understandable given the pandemic that's effected everybody especially small restaurants. The service was good, we made a reservation on Open Table and we got seated right away. Parking is plentiful in the nearby residential streets and we stayed late enough to see valet start around 6pm. The happy hour menu is amazing, it's hard to find drinks cheaper than $10 in LA even on happy hour so to see their classics are $7... are you kidding!!! Their food portions on HH are small but the prices are cheap so it's all relative. The outdoor patio is so nice and peaceful and the inside is super cute too. read more

Cool little hole in the corner in the wall across the street from a post office. I like the ambience ItalianO!! Let's hope post office doesn't care I parked there! It was 5 so I think I'm ok. The calamari's and beer was in happy hour that's why I'm here read more

It's very hard to find good dairy free Italian food. Terroni has an entire menu dedicated to lactose allergens and it's the most exciting thing to go to a restaurant usually so cheese heavy and be able to pick from so many options! I get the truffle sausage pasta and it's so delicious. read more

If you are looking for an amazing Italian place in LA, look no further. Between the food, ambiance, service & price point Terroni pretty much has it nailed down. Recently I visited Terroni with a larger group of 6 people. The reservation initially started as 4 people, but when we needed to add another 2 they were quick to accommodate and give us a table indoors. Since the pandemic hit in early 2020 I basically have eaten every meal either in my home or outside of the restaurant, so it was nice to be seated indoors. Although Terroni is primarily a restaurant they also have a marketplace so the interior has the vibes of a small old-school Italian market. Perfect for date night! It didn't take long for us to place our orders since we get the same dishes every time: Carpaccio to start, Spaghetti al Limone & Penne Arrabiata Before I even had a chance to say anything our server asked if anyone in the party had any allergies. Which yes, yes I do. I have a very severe dairy allergy and dining at an Italian restaurant can be difficult given that basically everything is made with milk/cream and topped with cheese. The kitchen was very accommodating and didn't make me feel like I was putting them out in any way. *You are NOT allowed to make any substitutions, but if you have an allergy they are happy to accommodate* When it came time for dessert I had to scrounge up all the will power I had to not order the tiramisu (I love it so much), Nutella filled fritters or the panna cotta, all of which my friends ordered and I basically drooled in my seat For 6 people: 7 starters, 6 meals, 3 desserts & 7 drinks it came out to just under $400. Terroni is slightly more expensive than the average Italian restaurant, but in my opinion it's totally worth it! Whether it's for date night, a celebration, out-of-state visitors or a business meeting (all of which I've come to Terroni for) it's perfect for every occasion! 10/10 recommend! read more

Loved this spot. Great pasta and pizza. Got a paper plane to drink, the ragu and my friend got what was basically a margherita with ricotta. Excellent stuff. Will definitely be back if my experience is like this every time ! read more

Just happened to be driving by and thought, why not. So glad I did. I walked in and the smell was amazing.

I walked by the Terroni in DTLA, and vowed to come to one the two locations. I ended up coming to the West LA location that is on Beverly & Curson, just west of Fairfax in you guessed it, the Fairfax. They serve classic Italian, and have a handful of locations in Toronto, in addition to the two in LA. We ordered the arancini di modica ($15 - rice balls stuffed w/ cheese & meat), fiore di zucchine ($15 - deep fried squash blossoms w/ ricotta & parmigano), funghi assoluti ($15 - baked oyster mushrooms served on arugula), spaghetti al limone ($17), and the Beppe Beppino Beppuccio white pizza ($18 - buffalo milk mozzarella, black olives, cherry tomatoes, parmigiano shavings, fresh basil). First of all, the arancini were very good. There was plenty of fillings in these perfectly fried goodies. In addition, I liked the unique shape. The only room for improvement would have been a sauce for dipping: 4 Stars. Secondarily, the fiore were excellent. They too were nicely fried, and the combo of cheese and blossoms were perfectly executed: 5 Stars. The third dish, the funghi was just OK in my mind. I would have preferred the funghi be seasoned better to make the taste stand out: 3 Stars. Fourthly, the spaghetti was too sour for my taste. I know it is limone, but the lemon flavor overpowered the dish. Additionally, the price was high for the portion: 3 Stars. Lastly, the pizza was just OK too. It had a ton of cheese that drowned the sweetness of the cherry tomatoes, and brininess of the olives: 3 Stars. Our waitress was excellent. She was super nice, very accommodating (w/ all of her special requests - hehehehe): 5 Stars. In addition, the front desk was very kind and allowed us to arrive a little late: 5 Stars. Regarding the ambiance, I love this freakin place!!! It was loud, without being too loud. The bar area had a lot of energy, as did the restaurant. Additionally, most of the clientele were hawt ladies!!!: 5+++ Stars. I can't wait to come back and try a wider array of options. She doesn't like certain things (which is cool, cos you don't want to eat things you don't like). But the menu is very diverse, and can accommodate the most sensitive of palates. Terroni means "Southerners" (where the cuisine comes from in Italy, a more sunny region). I can't wait to come back and bask in the "sunny" ambiance. read more

I've had good experiences every time I've been here. The menu isn't very extensive, but so far everything I've tried has been good. The restaurant is cute, especially for dates. The bathroom plays very funny Italian lessons on the speakers. The only problem we've had here is slow service, but at least they were nice. read more

The parking valet was easy and friendly, the hostess and reservation process was GREAT! Service was slow, it took a long time to be greeted and to place our drink order and even longer to get our drinks. The service was disappointing, we placed our appetizer order they came out quickly, the calamari was delicious. We eventually where able to place our dinner order we where starving had to ask for bread to hold us over. Our dinner came out, my husband and sister got the same thing they enjoyed it. My linguine and clams had no flavor and smelled a little off (I thought it was just me) I ate it and woke up with a stomach ache. My brother ordered the seafood pasta he didn't care for it either. My friend referred us here, she raved about the food and service, it was such a disappointment to us. We don't mind paying for great/good food and service however this place was overpriced ($270) for the service and food we received for 4 people. read more

Loooooove Terroni! Ive actually been here a few times and I cant believe that I'm only writing a review now. Though I've only really been here for the pizza (which by the way is fantastical covered in amazeballs sauce), Terroni offers so much more...at least I'm sure it does. Umm but back to the pizza. Im a huge fan of the Capricciosa, Scattagengive and the Smendozzata. Check this out: Capricciosa: Tomato, mozzarella, mushrooms, artichokes, olives, Italian ham. $16 Scattagengive: Tomato, mozzarella, hot cacciatore salame, spicy auricchio provolone. $16 Smendozzata: Tomato, mozzarella, homemade spicy Italian sausage, gorgonzola, red onions. $17 If you consider yourself a hearty eater or a pig, then these pizzas are a great size for you. You may even take a slice home for breakfast or better yet have it later the same night as you mentally examine your life accomplishments and shortcomings. Either way you'll experience some wonderfully crafted pizza's. I do recommend sharing your pie with your homie or better half, cause its true what people say...sharing is caring. And while you're at it, take a moment to select a glass or a bottle of wine from Terroni's exceptional collection. Looking forward to exploring a salad or pasta meal for my next visit. I recommend reservations because it can get busy. Salud! read more

Terroni - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Probably one of the worst restaurant experience I've had to this day. Not talking about the food it's actually very good. But the waitress there sure brings down the ratings a lot. I don't know if she's famous or what but she sure made me feel like I was not wanted there. It wasn't until I had to raise my voice at her where she snapped into work mode and realized she probably loosing out on tips. This restaurant is never gunna reach its all time high with staff like this either fix it and train your waitress better or just fire her all together. Thanks to one of the worst birthday dinners ever she made everyone uncomfortable. read more

Terroni's is great when you want to have a good Italian meal but didn't have the foresight to book a reservation or want the quality food but not stuffiness of some of the higher end Italian restaurants in the area. Because they don't take reservations, that means you can simply show up when you get a craving... But because they don't take reservations, that also means you might have to wait. There's a great bar to wait at, and you can also order food from the bar. They have valet, but I was lucky enough to find a metered spot right on Beverly. You might also be able to find something a few blocks down on one of the side streets behind the restaurant, but you have to be willing to talk. We went on a Monday night at 8:30 pm and there was no wait. They even let the four of us sit in a six person booth since they had a couple open. The booths are small though, and if you were to sit four people in a four person booth or six people in a six person booth, you'd be pretty squished. Because we opted to share a bunch of food, the larger table was a must. STARTERS: Frittura Di Calamari E Gamberi - Deep fried calamari and shrimp served with lemon only Piatto A Stutare - Prosciutto san daniele, burrata, grilled fresh artichokes, mint & extra-virgin olive oil Fiori Di Zucchine - Deep fried zucchini flowers with ricotta and parmigano ENTREES: Tagliolini In Canna A Mare - Homemade tagliolini with fresh clams, fresh mussels, calamari scallops and tiger shrimp in a light tomato sauce Spaghetti Al Limone - Homemade spaghetti with spinach, onions, capers, shavings of parmigiano with lemon and extra-virgin olive oil Tagliatelle Al Ragu - Homemade tagliatelle in a traditional bolognese meat sauce and parmigiano DESSERT Nutella Donuts with Hazelnut Ice Cream - this is to die for My friends also split a steak which looked amazing... but alas, I do not eat steak. It's HUGE and definitely enough for 2 to 3 people to share. Since we had ordered so much other stuff, they weren't even able to finish the steak and we left some of the plate. The pasta is al dente, which is exactly how I like it.. but be aware of you are not an al dente kind of person. For me, that made it that much better. The starters were all great, but nothing so amazing that I'd say you can't get them anywhere else or are must orders. The pastas however, are amazing. I loved all of them. The serving size isn't huge (they are "primi" meant to be eaten with a "secondi") but I think having a primi AND a secondi for one person is a bit much. We had the perfect amount of food for 4 people sharing 3 pastas, one secondi, and a few appetizers. They also have a huge wine list with a lot of unique selections. And they had spritz, which is a classic Italian drink and hard to find outside of Italy, so that made me feel this place was legit. You can tell that they are serious about their wine, and will help you select something to your palate and liking. It's dark and I hear that it can get a bit loud and hard to hear on certain nights, so we were lucky since it wasn't too crowded or too loud when we went. It's not cheap.. we were $90 in splitting those items and 2 bottles of wine, but I'm pretty sure the wine was a large chunk of the bill (as it always is). I'm definitely going to add Terroni's to my rotation of go to restaurants! read more

Food was incredible and delicious!! The service was also excellent and overall a great environment! Great prices too.

I was always super curious about checking out Terroni so finally I decided to take the plunge. Our table order was a spritz, spaghetti with basil a white pizza with salmon and I got the Tagliatelle. The prices were kind of expensive for the portion you get. That was probably the biggest factor for my review. I agree with paying whatever the price is for quality as long as I'm getting my belly full. The pasta portions were smaller than my fist and it was a bit undercooked as well. The only thing that made up for it was the pizza but even with that I would not come back again, it's just not worth it. read more
