I really love the laid-back dining vibe. My partner picked the daily special, which was pretty filling. I ordered a seafood dish that I was really looking forward to, but the taste was just so-so.

I’ve over looked this restaurant for YEARS, but we finally decided to stop by for the lunch Dine LA special. The special consisted of three courses, a starter, an entree, and a dessert with and additional bread basket. I’d say for $35, we definitely got our money’s worth. Each course was phenomneal with every dish having a very rich flavor. I was left wanting more by the end of the meal.
We’ll definitely be back again to try out more of their menu!

This restaurant is a true hidden gem in Culver City. It offers an authentic Italian-Sardinian dining experience with a wide variety of dishes, from fresh pasta and seafood to traditional Sardinian ravioli and other specialties. Everything tastes homemade and carefully prepared..
The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and very peaceful, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a great meal. The staff are attentive and kind, and the service is excellent.
A special mention goes to the owner, Vincenzo who is incredibly friendly and works in the restaurant with true passion. He makes you feel like part of the family, and dining here feels just like being at home.
If you are in Culver City and looking for authentic Italian-Sardinian food in a quiet neighborhood with a genuine family feel, this place is an absolute must…
In one of the pictures is the “Seadas”, a typical dessert dish like a Raviolo filled with cheese similar to mozzarella and drizzled with honey. Being myself from Sardinia, this is one of my favorite desserts

The food was average, but it took over 40 minutes to arrive, despite there being only one table inside and one outside during Monday lunch. The server was inattentive, and there were long gaps between any service. Both soup orders came out at room temperature, and when we asked to have them reheated, the server replied, ‘It’s not cold, just not hot enough.’ Overall, you don’t feel welcomed. Even though they put up signs directing people to the back alley and promote on Yelp, the staff doesn’t seem prepared to work. We won’t be returning.

it should go without saying that Italian cuisine is not monolithic. Not all pasta are the same and certainly the food will vary from region to region. Carasau is not just an Italian restaurant. It is a Sardinian restaurant.
I have been here a couple of times, mostly for their delicious gelato, but they also offer delicious and unique pasta.
The malloredus is quite good. Doesn’t feel heavy for a pasta and yet filling. The flavor is good, although just a tad too salty. Could be the cheese but it does overpower any other flavor in the dish. Good thing it is still a tasty pasta dish.
Now, the seadas is quite different. I don’t think I’ve seen this at any other Italian restaurants before. Seadas is a Sardinian specialty, a crispy, deep fried pastry stuffed with Pecorino cheese (love this cheese!) and drizzled with warm honey. It is very delectable and has a beautiful balance of that salty cheesiness and sweet, delicious honey. It’s practically a must-have at Carasau if you’ve never had Sardinian cuisine before.
Of course, you also can’t go wrong with their gelato, which is light, airy, and oh-so-sweet. My favorites are the pistachio, lemon, and strawberries.
Lastly, the restaurant itself is charming. It is a great place for a relaxing lunch or dinner

Weekday team dinner with tasty dishes and great service. A little on the pricey side.

A delicious surprise across the street!
I’m staying at a hotel just across from Carasau and was immediately intrigued by the name—I honestly thought it was a Brazilian place! But I walked in and realized it’s actually a cozy Italian gem, and what a discovery it was.
I ordered a traditional Sardinian dish (I think it’s called fregola?), little toasted pasta pearls served with Italian sausage, gorgonzola, and plenty of Parmigiano. Pure comfort food. Creamy, rich, full of flavor—it felt like a warm hug from home, the kind of dish that makes you forget you’re thousands of miles away.
The vibe is welcoming, the staff super kind, and the food? 100% Italian soul. If you’re in the area and craving something real, go. You’ll thank yourself later.

Best very thin crusted pizza that I know in the LA area (as their name suggests). Every dish we tried here was great. The service is good. The atmosphere is lively.

Waitstaff who wouldn’t take our order and left us sitting and waiting for our food for over an hour managed to ruin Christmas. We had to-go boxes thrown at us, the waitress talked to my girlfriend and her parents as if they were slow but spoke perfectly fine to me, the only white guy at the table. Tables around us were seated, ordered, and served food before a waiter had been to our table twice. Food was served to us lukewarm, but admittedly it wasn’t too bad. The only time a waiter was remotely quick on their feet was when we were trying to pay, and then we had to wait another 10 minutes just to get a to-go box thrown at us. I know it was a holiday, but this service was criminal, and with a minimum service charge hidden in the menu too!
