Where Italian elegance throws a party with old-world charm and invites your taste buds to dance.

Picture this: A Saturday night in Long Beach and the historic Willmore building glowing like it’s holding secrets from a century ago. My wife and I strolled in, dressed to impress and ready to celebrate our daughter’s birthday like it was a national holiday. La Traviata didn’t just open its doors, they threw them wide, popped some bubbles, and practically sang “Benvenuti!” before we even sat down.

We had reservations, but the way they whisked us to our table, you’d think we were visiting dignitaries, or at the very least, folks with an unhealthy passion for pasta. Within minutes, we had a round of sparkling bubbles in hand, fizzing like little Italian fireworks. Cheers to birthdays, bubbles, and food that flirts with your soul.

The Salad: Crisp. Fresh. Balanced. The kind of starter that makes you sit up straighter and believe in leafy greens again.

The Pasta: Oh, mamma mia. This wasn’t just a dish, it was an edible love letter written in cream, garlic, and perfectly cooked noodles. It didn’t just fill the stomach. It healed wounds I didn’t know I had.

And then, cue the spotlight, James and Celeste Alcantara began serenading the room. Their music didn’t just float through the air. They wrapped around the evening like a velvet ribbon. When they sang “Happy Birthday” to our daughter, we all went from “enjoying a nice meal” to “excellence in the candlelight.” It was a Hallmark moment… but with better sauce.

The service? Impeccable. Present without hovering. Friendly without being fake. Like dining with family, if your family was really, really good at timing.

The ambiance? Flickering candles, vintage accents, and cozy corners. This place doesn’t whisper romance, it croons it.

We left full, glowing, and already plotting our return. La Traviata doesn’t just serve dinner. It serves story-worthy evenings. The kind you replay in your head during Monday morning meetings and sigh out loud about.

TL;DR:
Historic building. Italian magic. Pasta that hugs your soul. Live serenades by angels in disguise. If you’re not already booking a table, I’m not sure we can be friends.

We had a small reception dinner for our wedding here and it was absolutely perfect! Mario is very accommodating and extremely welcoming as was all the staff. The atmosphere was excellent and the food was even better. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for any casual dinner reservation as well as anyone planning a more elaborate event!

What an elegant restaurant. We came here to celebrate my birthday and from begining to end what spectacular service. Our server Hope, was so professional and personable. The drinks, foods and desserts delicious. I even got to choose a dessert for free and they bring it to you with a candle and sing Happy Birthday. The owner Mario, came to our table and greeted us, he was there too singing Happy Birthday also. It gets better, they have live music which was so nice and relaxing. Highly recommend this Restaurant, we LOVED it and so will you!

We sat outside because the restaurant was booked with three parties. The service was excellent, the drinks perfect and appetizers scrumptious. However, the main courses while beautiful were bland and lacking seasoning. I’m hoping it was an off night since everything else was great. The food is the most important and just wasn’t tasty even though it look like it would be delicious.

The service was friendly and attentive. They had a piano player with nice background music. The food was phenomenal. We had Rigatoni bolognese. The sauce was among the best we’ve ever had. We also had the Chilean sea bass which was prepared to perfection. We’ll be sure an visit again the next time we’re in Long Beach.

My husband took me here to celebrate my birthday and he chose it because we were going to the Opera after to see La Traviata, so he wanted to make a theme night. The restaurant is small and quaint. They had live music. The decor is very simple, a bit rustic? But had some very pretty chandeliers. You must have reservations and must arrive on time. Our server was very polite and was quick at answering questions and making suggestions. I ordered the Chicken Milanese, and my husband had the Lasagna. Both were very delicious. We did not have any wine although it looked like they had a good selection and we opted for no dessert (good selection as well), as our meals were pretty good size. We both liked it and would go back. This restaurant has been open for 25 yrs.

Food was fantastic. I got the beef ravioli. It came out quick and it was a hot fresh plate. I saw my server only once or twice and that disrupted the overall experience but I got the chance to meet Mario, the owner, his hospitality and professionalism is next level. 4/5 Stars would come back.

We had dinner at La Traviata on Christmas Eve. The food was amazing, the ambience was warm and intimate and the staff were wonderful. They made us feel very welcome, and even went out of their way to make specialty drinks that they had never made before. The owner even stopped by our table a couple of times.
