Oh my! This little Italian cafe is so cute! They have a little bit of everything and it’s so good. From gelato to espresso to focaccia to pastries! Their carbonated La Dolce Vita drinks are also delicious. every time I come in here, I want everything they have to offer. The staff is super friendly and passionate about the store. Prices are just right.

I come from Sicily and this was my first time visiting Los Angeles. I decided to start my trip with a visit to Venice Beach and noticed a small “Sicilian spot.” Having lived in other US cities, I was a bit skeptical at first. But the moment I walked in, I genuinely felt like I was back in Sicily. And trust me, that’s something extremely hard to recreate.
Beautiful place, authentic atmosphere, and amazing Sicilian food.
A small recommendation: try the sfogliatella. They are absolutely stunning!

Took the Espresso class and highly recommend it! It was very informative, fun, and engaging. Julian did a fantastic job, he answered all our questions and guided us through the entire process, from the history of coffee to hands-on espresso making and proper machine cleaning. Cute coffee shop with all the Italian goodies. Will definitely come back!

Perfect cozy place to stop for a drink and pastries, with great service. The only downside is the surrounding theater area, which can feel uncomfortable at times. (Homeless)

A really delicious Italian café right Venice Beach right across from the ocean. As someone whose family is southern Italian, I really appreciate these flavors and honestly thought they were fantastic. We were walking the beach and decided to stop in once we saw it on our walk. Inside is quite large and very bright, but this is more of about to go type of place versus a stop and sit. Service was really friendly and everything that we ordered was made very quickly.
I decided to try a Bombolone because I have been a big fan since I was a little kid and thought it was terrific, which is basically an Italian donut. It was made fresh and had great flavors. I also tried one of their cold brews with cold foam on top and thought it was a bit bitter, but still good. I would definitely recommend this place and plan to stop in again because I live fairly close by.

This is a hidden gem at Venice Beach. They offer delicious and tasty Italian Street Food. It really tastes like you are eating in Italy. If you like this kind of food you have to eat there. If you haven’t tried Italian food before, you must visit this place. We ate pinsa, gelato, Cannoli and tried the Italian Soda. It was amazing.

This is one of the best places in the Santa Monica/Venice area to get authentic Italian desserts! The bombolone was wonderful and I kept coming back to get more. The staff is also very friendly and the inside has a nice ambience it is very cozy and relaxing. Seating inside is somewhat limited but they do have seating outside. The gelato is wonderful as well!

Beautiful place, welcoming staff, music and theme made me feel like I was in Italy for a second! I ordered a pistachio gelato and I’m loss for words… the flavor just melted so beautifully in my mouth. I also ordered a cannoli, a classic Sicilian pastry! Delicious. 10/10.
