I was at the Griffith Observatory and found this restaurant nearby. The staff was super nice.
I chose a table at the corner outside next to the traffics light. It was a funny weird.
The penne with arrabiatta sauce was great. The penne was Al dente, which is perfect. The sauce was spicy enough to make my nose run, and 4 spoons of the cheese made it cheesy, fatty enough to enjoy. I added seared shrimps but actually no need. The penne and sauce itself made it just right.
The restaurant free appetizer was good too, the garlic and paprika in oil.
The old classic chocolate cake was really rich but not too sweet, the chocolate coating was mirror shiny.
Generally I like this place, the vibe and the food

Cute little Italian place with decent food and fair prices. The food is served in a good amount and bread with olive oil is served ahead of the meal. I recommend the Farfalle with salmon in it.

It’s better to fly to LA for Trattoria Farfalla’s pasta pizza than fly to Italy! Everything was delicious. Thanks to the entire staff. We loved your food and the outdoor seating is fantastic! We’ll definitely stop in when we are back in town.

This was a romantic little spot with quick service and AMAZING pasta. We both got two different raviolis 🤤 and they did not disappoint. Would surely come back!! The only note was that the tiremesu was mid.

Farfalla gives me the sense that I'm in a family owned eatery somewhere in Italy. The ambiance is inviting, cozy, and the service is attentive. The food is served hot and the taste is very home cooked authentic. Expect a wait on weekends, and remember that the experience is worth it!

I highly recommend trattoria farfalla 🦋 You start off with some cheesy bread and delicious olive oil to dip. I had the pennette santino which is a penne alla vodka with a bit of spice.
The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was lovely!

In my opinion, this is the best Italian restaurant of many in town. On a recent night I had the spaghetti amatriciana, which perfectly balances flavors, spice, and meat. My partner had the lasagna bolognese, filling and superb. Wine pairings were excellent. The service is old school and attentive, as if you're family. To top it off, prices are slightly lower than nearby trendier places, offering great value.

What a wonderful weekday dinner. Loved the atmosphere, a nice little space to relax and have some drinks and delicious food. We started off with the bruschetta on pizza crust, which is amazing compared to regular bread, because all the tomato actually stays on! I’m from the east coast and it reminds me of a similar bruschetta pizza I would get in NJ so that was great. Pasta was amazing, I suggest anything with the vodka sauce. Pasta was delicious and done perfectly. All in all a great experience and would go back

Had one night in LA - luckily chose this place to be my dinner spot. Absolutely gorgeous! Was welcomed by the staff so well, who made me feel right at home! A complementary entrée arrived once I ordered. The outside seating was amazing. The music playing set the mood right! I ordered the Arabiata Penne, and man, that was the best Italian i have had in so long! I ordered a Merlot for the wine… the person handling my cheque refused to charge me for the wine too! If only I lived here, I would have come everyday!!! Thanks guys for a wonderful night.

A wonderful restaurant that has stood the test of time. The food is still as good as when it opened - same taste , quality and Andre still serves with the same warm attitude , sharing great suggestions with a warm smile. Try the rollino, farfalla salmon and save room for dessert. And still reasonably priced! 5 *****standard!

We had a great meal here before the Greek Theater. We loved the minestrone soup and the wine list is very reasonable and good selection. I had the chicken piccatta which I really enjoyed and my partner and linquine in a red clam sauce. I also loved that everything comes out of the kitchen piping hot. We had a chocolate desert to end that was perfect. The service an ambience were both well done.

Visited this place for an anniversary, really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Great lighting for a chill, laid back vibe.
Service was ok. Made a reservation so we were sat down right away, the service was a bit on the slower side but it went ok.
The food was amazing, we had 2 different pastas, a salad, and wine. The pumpkin ravioli was so soft and flavorful with it's cream like sauce, I would definitely come back for this plate. The wine was perfect a well.
We also got a peach champagne. The peach champagne was great as well, it was just a bit thicker so it maybe it could have a little more champagne than peach flavor, it leaned on the sweeter side.
Overall great Italian place.

Service and food was beyond Fabulous. The seating is a little tight which I equate to old Hollywood charm.
