    We made a last minute reservation after getting to LA via train to catch a red eye flight to the East Coast on a Friday night. We showed up with our luggage and the staff was kind enough to stash it for us. We reserved seats at the counter but a table for 2 was open on the front patio. We split a Gem Caesar Salad, Corn Agnolotti Pasta and the Branzino. The salad was well executed but overdressed. The pasta was our favorite part of the meal. The branzino was deboned already when it hit the table. If you are hungry, I would recommend ordering one for yourself with a pasta. This place is great for a date night or intimate dinner with friends.

    The food was perfect and the ideal portion size. The atmosphere was intimate and warm. Loved the service, but again, the food - we both got pasta dishes - was fresh and excellent

    The food was next level. I have no complaints about it. Pastas are on the heavier side but every dish I had was delicious. I was disappointed with the service. Took a long time to get someone to notice I needed a new drink or more water and overall they just didn't seem as friendly as I expected. They didn't even wish my wife a happy birthday when I noted that it was the reason for our reservation. While that isn't a huge deal, I would expect a restaurant of this caliber to say happy birthday or even send a candle out or something. Hopefully if I go again, the service matches the food quality and taste. I do recommend sitting at the bar so you can watch the food get cooked.

    Went on Monday and the restaurant was pretty lively. The food and drinks were so fabulous. However, the host was kinda rude and made us feel rushed. In spite had a good time.
