Cozy local Italian pasta/pizza joint. I've only been here for lunch since it's close to work, and it's a place I would visit again. Granted, it is in a stripmall type locale with a modest interior, but with the outdoor seating makes for a nice spot to grab lunch on a sunny day. Bread with garlic olive oil is complementary, lunches are served with a fresh garden salad or gazpacho and the variety of pasta and pizza is endless. One chef makes all the dishes so the wait can be a tad bit long on some days, but I would much rather wait to be served a freshly made pasta than to eat manufactured Italian food such as OG.

Pasta Boring!. Upon reading the other reviews, we decided to try this place. The atmosphere was stripmall boring, and the food is airport equivalent. I won't be returning to this place.

Deliciouso!. Trust me, just go! Hidden location, but well worth the visit. Friendly staff, delicious food. I love the pesto gorgonzola pasta w/chicken, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The bread with olive oil & garlic is another added plus. This is one of my top 5 favorite restaurants in Los Angeles. Have a nice dinner, walk around the neighborhood, pick up some coffee across the street. You won't regret it.

Hard to find.......... unless you know what you're looking for. This place gets customer's by word of mouth because the food is so good. You don't really notice it from the street so you would need to see an ad or hear about it from a friend, so consider me a friend and try it out.

The place is small but they have a little patio overlooking Ocean View Blvd. and it's nice to sit out there on a summer night as the sun is setting. Since the restaurant doesn't hold many people this is a good spot to bring a date.

And don't forget to try the Tiramisu for dessert.
