This is our new favorite restaurant in Los Angeles! Nancy (the owner) came into the Cosmetic department where I work and gave me her card for her amazing Italian restaurant. She is so sweet and beautiful! Our dinner tonight was incredible! The chicken was tender and juicy, the fettuccine Bolognese was the best I've had on the west coast. And don't get me started on the meatballs!
Great wine list and the liquor selection is ridiculous.
I can't wait to try EVERYTHING on the menu!
I have been to over 150 Italian restaurants across the United States because I travel for work and absolutely love fettuccine Alfredo. This trattoria just blew me out of the water, I didn’t even realize it was possible to craft such an exquisite dish of fettuccine Alfredo. I am absolutely shocked at Pastina’s ability to take such a classic dish to a whole new dimension. Deserves 7 stars not 5. Seriously. Amazing. Thank you so much.
This time I went at lunchtime, and I was blessed that I had the privacy, the calm, the waiter Luís as always impeccable in the way he serves, the 6-star food, delicious. For me, this is one of the best in Los Angeles for Italian food. For those who like Lava Cake, I think the video should show how delicious it is. Excellent!
Nice Italian restaurant, they have a nice classical menu.
A wide selection of antipasti, pasta, secondi and desserts or gelato/sorbet.
We both were interested in the linguine alla frutti di mare. It was really good but somehow, everything was on the top and the pasta on the lower part. I would suggest you to mix the pasta at the beginning for more flavors😋
We then went for the Torta della Nonna by Bindi as a dessert. I was very happy I choose this, lemon custard pie, it was really good.
I would recommend this place for a calm dinner.
Authentic, excellent, amazing Italian food on the west side. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for the best food in town! Service is amazing and the owner is always there to greet you. If you like Alfredo or gnocchi I can recommend this without a doubt the best you'll ever have!
Got the gnocchi and tried a couple bites of other dishes. The gnocchi was nothing to write home about, but hit the spot after a few drinks. Nice place to stop in if you're hungry and looking for Italian. Service was very friendly as well.
Fantastic Italian restaurant in the heart of Westwood. The owner was very friendly and the food was off the charts. I asked if it was possible to make my favorite dish despite the fact that it wasn't on the menu and to my surprise, he said yes.
Highly recommend.
Love Nancy and Frank! Everything was awesome. I had the Caesar salad, the bow tie pasta with smoked salmon and tiramisu 🥰 I will definitely return.
Wonderful spot for great food. The chef is clearly avoiding mixing half ready ingredients (like many restaurants) and starts everything from scratch. The staff are great. Highly recommended.
Food was great. Service was ok, waiter seemed uninterested in his clientele. Atmosphere in general was good. We enjoyed the lunch 👍
