The Scene – A twinkling canopy of lights, twining vines and flowers create a romantic courtyard setting among candles, Chianti and Italian ditties. The dim lighting is just right for the well-groomed California blonds and their starry eyed beaux. – – The Food – Northern Italian favorites deliver both authenticity and extravagance, with dishes such as roasted Sonoma Valley squab and succulent, poached Australian lobster medallions. There's also stuffed zucchini blossoms and tender fried calamari. Branzino tradizionale--a whole striped sea bass grilled and baked with…

Wowie, amazing
by leahg11
i read all sorts of reviews, and saw a lot of mixed opinions.... still, i was determined to try this restaurant.... well can i say, WOW!!!, it totally surpassed anything that i was expecting! the atmosphere is so pretty (get the patio!), the service was the best in LA(waiters are not stuffy or pretentious, can be really formal, or super chill, very good at reading the table and what you want), and the food was delish! i would love more wines by the glass, but the 1/2 bottle option kinda forced us to have that extra glass, that actually ends up making the last part of dinner that much more fun, ha.
i will SO be back here, this is exactly what you want when you are craving a really warm, rich experience. loved it!!
- Pros: great service, romantic atmosphere, delicious food & wine
- Cons: if you find cons here you are too spoiled

Ruined our Valentine's Day
by fdlvr09
My husband took me to this restaurant for our First Valentine's Day as newly weds, we were so excited. The ambiance was nice. The menu, we were expecting to have a wide variety of choices, as they showed in their webpage, sadly when we show up, they gave us sort of special menu with only a few choices.
The Food: There was a baby lobster, that actually looked more like a shrimp, because of its size. They served a very simple and expensive pasta, I guess it was just to fill the space in our stomach.The mushroom was under cook. We were expecting a lot more for what we paid (almost $300)
The service was very rushed, it seems that they wanted to get rid of us, to fill another table.
Advice, if you go for Valentine's be prepare to pay a lot for little.
This was the worst Valentine's day Memory, that I'm trying to forget.
- Pros: Romantic
- Cons: Not a great variety to choose from, snoobish waiter.

Romantic as romantic gets

My date took me to Il Cielo. Props for picking such a incredible place. Absolutely beautiful! Unfortunately, my date's appeal ended in picking great spots. :)
What's not to like? Great food, to die for patio and perfect drinks.
Now I just need another date.
- Pros: ambiance, waiter, beautiful patio
- Cons: my date
