Reviews
We visited this Italian restaurant for the first time and were absolutely blown away. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the open kitchen added a unique touch—watching the chefs prepare each dish right in front of us was both mesmerizing and reassuring. The transparency in their cooking process speaks volumes about their pride and integrity.
Now, the food… simply extraordinary.
I had a smoked eggplant dish layered with melted cheese and rich tomato sauce—it was heavenly, with a depth of flavor that lingered beautifully. Others in our group enjoyed a sizzling hot steak, pasta with incredibly fresh lobster, and branzino that was cooked to perfection—delicate, flavorful, and unforgettable.
To top it off, the chef surprised us with complimentary bites: crispy calamari paired with zucchini fries, and pillowy gnocchi smothered in a luscious cheese sauce. Every bite was a celebration of taste and texture.
This place is a true standout—authentic, generous, and passionately crafted. We’ll definitely be back.
The place is cozy, not that big with an open kitchen. You can see the chef and the team. There are some seats outside and few options at the bar.
There are various wine options and some spritz and beers.
I have only tried a few things from the menu: the crispy brussels sprouts that I really enjoyed.
For my entrée, I decide to go with their popular Cacio e pepe. They come to the table and start doing final preparation in the cheese. The pasta were delicious. Cooked perfectly. I truly enjoyed it. Saw some other plates that looked very good – like some of meat ones.
Other starters did look good and I will have to try it next time.
For the dessert, we got the lava cake and panacotta. It was great as well.
You might not see this place by just passing by, but I strongly recommend for you to try it if you are looking for a nice Italian spot. The whole team there was extremely kind and nice. They really make you feel welcome, and they take the time to come and chat with you, which is very enjoyable.
Thank you, and we will be back!
Found this little place on a whim and what an absolute gem of a spot. Close to The Getty, somehow classy and upscale without being stuffy, very fast service despite a full house.
Valet was clearly the better option but there is parking on street.
10/10 will be back. Thanks guys!!
A big thank you to Chef Nicola for the exceptional dishes and to Natalie and Jean for their excellent service and spot-on recommendations. Their warmth and attentiveness made the night even more memorable. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
