I’m just a regular DoorDash driver, and I was honestly blown away by how kind the owner of this restaurant was. While they were preparing the order I needed to deliver, the owner invited me to sit at a table and treated me to an incredibly delicious dessert and a cup of coffee – completely free. He also shared some amazing stories from his life. It was one of the highlights of my day today. Thank you!

One of the best neighborhood restaurants in Sherman Oaks. The owner is so genuine and personable that every meal there feels like a family meal. I love the pasta here and they always give you complimentary Tiramisu that’s to die for. Highly recommended

I asked my husband to find a cute + cozy Italian restaurant for Friday night dinner date, and we found what we wanted and more! Low lighting, but not so low you can’t read the menu. Quiet enough to hear conversation, but not awkward-quiet. And the service was top notch, nothing about the spot was pretentious, and the food was tasty. The owner (or maybe maître d’?) Vasak was so sweet and greeted us with a huge smile. He had us come to the back to taste all of the wines because I didn’t know which one I wanted, and he brought tiramisu on the house at the end of our meal. The whole staff was friendly and fast, and they all seemed to know the guests who walked in—big smiles, hugs, handshakes, “see-you-in-a-couple-weeks”. We got bow tie pasta with pink sauce and their house made gnocchi with pesto cream sauce; perfectly al dente and perfectly salted. I’m going to bring all of my friends!

A truly authentic experience, the owner and servers were kind, generous, and funny. Food came out in a reasonable time. And the CARBONARA IS BOMB. the gnocchi pesto was also so very good!
Feels like a home made dish. We cleaned the plates with the bread!

This place is an unassuming diamond in a strip of many Italian restaurants nearby.
As the reviews have mentioned before, the owner is clearly very passionate about his business and makes sure to check on every table personally in addition to your waiter. Some of the best service l’ve received at a restaurant.
The seating area is small and the atmosphere is nice. It has very homey feel to it.
As for the food I think it was great. We got the lemon chicken and the chicken and pesto gnocchi. Very delicious, filling, and reasonably portioned and priced. And to top it all off, COMPLIMENTARY TIRAMISU.
I cannot recommend this place enough and looking at the overall rating of this place, l’d say most others would agree. A definite return.

We had an amazing dining experience here. This is a small restaurant that’s easy to miss, but you will love it if you give it a try. The owner comes by and greets everyone and really makes you feel welcome. The food is excellent but it’s really the treatment by the owner that makes this place worth the visit.

We don’t crave Italian food often, but when we do, we go to Spumoni. We know we will always have a great experience there. They play classic Italian music like “That’s Amore”, the owner is the friendliest man you’ll ever meet, and the food is top notch and served with love at a reasonable price.
I went on a weekday dinner with my wife and toddler, and there were many open tables. The waiter brought us water and bread with olive tapenade. The owner, an older Italian gentleman, came out to give us recommendations on the menu. He asked what our toddler liked to eat and brought us out a small kids sized plate on the house. Our chopped salad came split in two plates without us needing to ask for it. The owner chatted with us about the beauty of life and spending time with family. The spaghetti carbonara was out of this world. The chicken limone had an excellent grilled flavor with just the right amount of lemon. They brought us to go boxes when we mentioned we wanted to save some for lunch the next day. And of course they brought out the complimentary dessert. The whole time the owner was so friendly with our toddler. We all had a great time.

6/5 – Very nice family owned little Italian restaurant. The owner/chef is such a gentleman, who made us feel right at home with his hospitality! Great tasting food as well! Our baby being a picky eater thoroughly enjoyed her pasta. We will dine-in here again anytime we are back in LA!
