Great little restaurant. I ordered lamb ragu with pasta. $25. Small portion and no sides. Pretty expensive. I also had Nutella filled fritters with hazelnut gelato. It costed over $10. Expensive or not the food was great! Service is great and very friendly. They have outdoor seating in front of the restaurant. Great people watching. Meter parking or parking in the surrounding neighborhood.

I used to go to the downtown la location until it (sadly) closed out. It was my first time at the one on Beverly and it did not disappoint! I had penne arrabiata (though it isn’t on the menu) but the waitress was kindly able to confirm they could cook up for me. My friend had a seafood based pasta. It was our first time trying orange wine (the only one on the menu) and it was pleasantly delicious and paired greatly with our dishes. For dessert we had cannolis. Cannot wait to come back again!

I love this place, number 1 for pasta (and I could almost say pizza) in LA. The spaghetti al limone are my favorite on the menu but everything is delicious, and the portions are quite generous. The only down side is that they used to have a lovely patio at the back which isn't open anymore I believe, so if you eat outside you're a little bit by the road with traffic on Beverly.
