Best Italian Restaurants in Historic South-Central

Food was delicious and services was great and the place is beautiful

We had a reservation at 815p. This place gets very busy. We had a great experience from start to end. From the hostess to our server, everyone did their part to make the dining experience memorable. Our server (sorry I forgot his name), gave us the best recommendations for dishes. The roasted leek and the scallop crudo were so delicious. The mushroom pizza, branzino, and the squid ink spaghetti were also amazing. And let's not forget the drinks! The search and destroy was my favorite drink. Thank you for a great birthday dinner!

1st time and won’t be the last. Sat at the bar. The bartender was amazing. Great service and also recommended the dishes that I ordered plus drinks. Started off with the Glazed Pork Belly’s and Also The Brussel Sprouts. Both were full of flavor and enjoyable. To top it off ordered the Margherita Pizza and oh my had me drooling. Sorry not Sorry. Lol Their Barcarita Cocktail was just perfect. The right spice and alcohol balance. Would I come back yes definitely this time date night with my partner.

Excellent service. Cooking is well balanced, nuanced, and elegant. So are the cocktails. By the glass wines are nicely varied. Lovely collection of amari. One of my favorite Italian spots in LA along with Antico Nuovo and Chi Spacca.

i came here for a birthday/anniversary celebration with my boyfriend and since we looked like a bunch of kids, i was ready to get ignored the whole night like we always do but it was the exact opposite. our server JC was amazing and even the freaking manager or owner was checking up on us frequently too. we always get treated like a couple of bums from other fine dining restaurants but we didnt here so thank you 🥹 this was my second time here and the food always hits, the pesto pasta was sooo good, its the kind of food that you daydream about 🤤 i tipped $26 on a $114 bill but i found out that wasnt even 25% so i felt really bad but ill be back again so ill make up for it, thank you !
