The staff was great and the pasta was phenomenal! Their osso con bucco tasted great and the portion sizes are generous. Do not pass on dessert! The flan, cheesecake, and chocolate cake are amazing. Ingredients and cheese and olive oil are nice
Our group of 6 had excellent food and service. We all tasted each others dishes and vow to go back to try more. Fresh pasta, made on site. But go early...no reservations.
The pasta here is really good, worth returning to. All freshly made in-house. The garlic bread also was yummy. There can be a long wait so I recommend coming during a weekday or lunch to avoid that. Not sure why they haven't started any kind of reservation system, at this point, every restaurant in LA is on either OpenTable or Resy. Parking in this area is not fun, area can be sketchy at night if you are a female by yourself.
First time here and was lucky to end up in a very nice and delicious place like this. My 2 kids and I ordered the Boccoletti Al Pesto E Ricotta, Rigatoni Pom'Amore, Maccheroni and Cheese. For dessert we shared a flourless chocolate cake and I ordered a cappuccino. Everything was delicious. I'm no "food expert", but I'd give this place 4-4.5 out of 5 stars. We got lucky and got last sitting for lunch (5 minutes before the closed). Place inside is somewhat small, but in most cases that's what makes it quaint and feel more homey. Our waiter was nice, but I could tell that they were ready to just close. Overall it was a great experience!
I wasn't having the greatest luck finding food on a work trip UNTIL I came across this gem. The food was fresh and delicious. The staff were friendly and made sure I was comfortable. I had their signature dish and it was so good, I came back the next day to try another dish. The 2nd time, I made sure to leave room for dessert. Haha. The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy. Would definitely recommend.
We parked at the parking garage right next to it. They do validate parking. It was $16 for 8 hours. We had lunch there and no wait time. The pasta was delicious. We had alfredo, macaroni and cheese and a seafood pasta. We enjoyed all the dishes. Tiramisu was yummy.
The pasta here is amazing! Definitely recommend the chicken fettuccine. We had tiramisu for dessert. My wife thought the coffee taste was a little too strong, but I really enjoyed it.
The best Italian food in downtown LA. Pasta dishes are made fresh. Would recommend the Alfredo based pasta dishes with chicken Parmesan. The lasagna is cooked to perfection. Would 100% recommend this place for the great food along with the great ambience.
First time coming to this restaurant. I was very impressed. It has a great atmosphere and wonderful location. My server, Arturo, was very nice. I ordered the black and white signature pasta and it was perfect.
Not only was the pasta exceptional, but the ingredients used were top-notch. You could taste the freshness of the locally sourced produce in every forkful. The attention to detail and commitment to quality truly set Maccheroni Republic apart.
The portions were generous, ensuring I left the restaurant with a happy, satisfied belly. The friendly and attentive staff made the experience even more enjoyable, providing excellent service throughout my visit.
From the warm ambiance to the outstanding flavors, every aspect of this restaurant is designed to please. I can't wait to return and explore more of their pasta creations. 🍝🥰
