Louise’s Trattoria – Larchmont

  4.5 – 435 reviews   • Italian restaurant

Social Profile:

Louise’s first opened its doors back in 1978 in Santa Monica, CA. It was one of the first trattoria’s of its kind in Southern California. Gathering chefs from small towns in Italy, Louise’s began a legacy of great Italian cuisine on the Westside of Los Angeles and beyond. That legacy still inspires great Italian restaurants across the City of Angels. Many of the recipes we use today are still those of the original menu. They are just as unique as they were when Louise’s first opened. Some are also a part of my family’s recipe books, namely from my grandmother and her eight sisters. At Louise’s, we incorporate local and fresh ingredients, along with regional specialties from both Italy and Southern California. Rob Serritella, Owner

Casual offshoot of a longtime Italian eatery, serving classic dishes including ravioli & pizza.

Braised short rib sauce was rich, and the short rib was tender.
It paired well with the mashed potatoes.
But, the carrots on the side were barely cooked, which was disappointing.

Garlic Shrimp was fresh, and the flavour was simple. The seasoning was a bit light, so adding salt would help if you prefer a stronger taste.
The balance between the angel hair pasta and cream was good.

I also liked the cocktail menu.
Both the Pink Lady and the Classic Margarita were easy to drink.

Family run Iranian restaurant with good selection of vegetarian options. The pasta and the vegetables are fresh with full of flavor and taste. The service was excellent and easy to find parking .However, the Cacio e Pepe had too much lemon juice and it was overpowered by the sourness and thus lost the true taste if Cacio e Pepe. Until the chef changes the recipe, suggest not to ordered this highly lemony pasta .

Louise’s Trattoria is the crown jewel of Larchmont, embodying all the qualities that make Larchmont so special. A throwback to the fifties’ ethos of personal service, the wait staff’s attitude evinces the pride and engagement one would normally expect only from an owner. Danny (pictured) is one of five waiters I’ve had here who are truly exceptional. When you eat here, you will feel like a personal friend of the house. The food is outstanding. I highly recommend the outdoor brunch. The French toast and the eggs Benedict are my favorites. Come to Louise’s. You’ll be glad you did.

Came here for a quick bite was greeted quickly and sat down. Love the setting here and was clean. We started with an appetizer of ‘Nonna’s Meatball’ which was really good. Hot and fresh topped with plenty of Parmesan cheese. The bread on the table was really good with the little dabble of oil to go with it. We also ordered a ‘BBQ Chicken Pizza’ which was really, really good. The crust was just perfect not too soft and not too crunchy just the way I like it. The server was attentive and came by to check on us to make sure everything was good. If your shopping around here would recommend 100%.

The restaurant is small, so I think it’s easily packed & difficult to walk through during a Saturday evening. They do have outside seating, but it was a little too cold for me, so inside it was. The server was clearly overwhelmed but still nice, his perceived panic and racing around put me in a panic, so I opted not to ask too many questions and just proceed with my order (this is a me issue, not his fault). I ordered brick pressed chicken and garlic mashed potatoes. I opted to remove the mushrooms and artichokes. The meal came out in a timely manner, was hot, and looked delicious. Unfortunately, the chicken wasn’t seasoned, which is a pet peeve of mine. It seems like a lot of restaurants depend on the sauce to flavor the meat, but that generally fails, and it honestly is disappointing. The mashed potatoes didn’t have significant flavor either; the bread was the best thing I ate. I believe the meal was $33 with a tip (no drink), which isn’t that bad for a meal I really enjoy, but this was average or below, so I won’t likely eat her again unless someone else is paying. However, I wouldn’t discourage anyone from going because it can be a vibe, and I’m very picky!

Ordered food to go. When I picked up my food and went to my car they forgot one of the main dishes. We went back in to let them know they forgot a dish and they looked surprised. They let the cook know and he was upset that he had to stop and make the missing dish. Once I got the dish and got home the dish wasn’t even what we ordered. They gave some noodles with garlic, no sauce or the pepper flakes. They also didn’t pack any napkins or plastic wear to eat the food. Bad experience overall. I recommend to check your order thoroughly as they don’t.

Went to Louise’s yesterday for the first time with family from out-of-town. Called at the last minute for a party of 9. We arrived shortly after to a table set and ready for us. The food was excellent, and the service even better. The staff was attentive and friendly. We were in great hands with our excellent waiter. The staff, including the manager(owner?), pitched in as well. Their collaboration added a nice family-feeling to the atmosphere. Everything we ordered was DELICIOUS! It was a great meal and a great experience. Highly recommend!

I share this with the most spontaneous discovery of this place. The ambiance of this whole street and the restaurant’s outdoor dining area were really nice! Came by on a Wednesday afternoon, ambiance was amazing, there was a live music nearby. We sat outside and were served delicious cubes of bread. I can’t recommend enough Pappardelle & Italian Sausage, so creamy and rich, except I customized with shrimp instead and no spice (just a heads up the shrimp alternative was $9 extra for like three to four on the plate). Nevertheless, genuinely I have not tasted a pasta sauce this good. Food came in quick. Definitely coming back to have the same as well as try the tiramisu, as there was no appetite left after this delicious plate.

My old time favorite restaurant. When I feel like having pasta or just because I come here either dine in or take out. Today I had to take out and ordered just for dinner. Good service, good food. I got my rewards too that I used, thanks to the manager who assisted me, I didn’t know I earned that much already. It’s also close by for me that’s one thing I like. I love their tiramisu too, yummm.
