Uovo in Marina del Rey was excellent. The Yellowtail crudo was incredibly fresh and well-balanced, and the tortellini in cream sauce was rich, comforting, and clearly made with care. The mushroom side added a great savory depth. I couldn’t decide on which dish was my favorite, but I do still dream about that Yellowtail. Shoutout to Christian, who was incredibly helpful–gave thoughtful menu tips and made the experience feel warm and personal. Stylish space, great scenic view, smooth service, and definitely worth a visit. Cannot wait to go back, sooner than later, I hope.

As someone who yearns for authentic food experiences, I was intrigued by the prospect of a dining chateau that has its noodles made in Italy with local ingredients and craftsmanship, and flown in overnight. It’s the second best thing to visiting Italy.
What I found was a delightful al dente experience that lives up to the hype.
The genius of well made Italian cuisine is forging a few a iconic ingredients into an integrated delicious melange.
Uovo hits this mark in a way so many places can’t. Whereas high French cuisine often fails this test by including too many elements that fail to congeal into a unified dish, the pasta at Uovo boldly serves you a few elemental ingredients, each of which is essential to the dish.
10/10 wish my stomach was big enough to try the whole menu.

I would say this is one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Los Angeles. There are multiple locations, previously I tried the Santa Monica location, but this was my first time at the Marina del Rey location. It’s located right next to the water in a small shopping center with plenty of free parking. Well, the parking is free for the first two hours. Inside is pretty small, and the line can get quite long, but service is fast so they tend to turn the tables pretty quickly. The menu is very large and has a ton of great options on it. It’s always a challenge to decide what to order. As noted the pasta is fresh and made in Italy and you can really taste the quality. I also love how dark it is on the inside, it really adds to the mood and it is also important to note that this is not a tipping restaurant, but they factor in a 16% surcharge onto the top of the bill.
For this visit, I started off with the Beef Tartare and really enjoyed it. I wish they would’ve had more of a spice component to it, specifically, horseradish, or I wish there would’ve been more of a mustard seed flavor component, but still I enjoyed it and would recommend. From my entrée chose the Crema di Parmigiano and thought it was fantastic. I absolutely loved every bit of it and would highly recommend. I will be thinking about it for the next few days. It was that good. We also got a side of Roasted Broccolini and that felt that it was delicious. It added a really flavorful crunch on top of the pasta. I honestly loved my meal and already want to come back again soon to try a different items.

A breathtaking view of the marina and the food is amazing and great service. Been here twice with my family and everything is fresh. First time we did the fix course meal with my daughter and Grandkids and today was lunch – just my husband and I. Angel was very professional. A must when you visit Marina Del Rey❤️

Excellent homemade pasta and sauces… you can taste the difference here at UOVO. This small gem is a must visit… order the truffle pasta that is off the menu or the arrabbiata… spicy, sweet sauce with chewy, delicious pasta… simply awesome. Sitting at the bar is fun to watch them custom cook your pasta… highly recommended!

Finally got the chance to eat here and everything was perfect! Pasta – fresh and delicious, dessert 10/10 (strawberry panna cotta), wine even better. Alex made us feel welcome and the Uovo team checked on us throughout our lunch. 100% recommend eating here if you need your fix of authentic pasta without all the fluff. The view is an added bonus!

I highly recommend the tasting menu! It’s made for 2 people so you either need a pair or a party of 4. It’s a fun way to try several things on the menu. The Uovo in marina del Rey is right on the water so be ready for some peaceful and relaxing vibes. We definitely plan on going back for more!

Delicious handmade pasta but no bread which was disappointing. Not even an option to buy bread and I always love some focaccia with my pasta! With no drinks, but with 5 main dishes, 2 vegetable sides, and 3 desserts, it came to about $50 per person but we had a lovely table overlooking the marina.
