Restaurants in Los Angeles County, California

2945 E Broadway, Long Beach, CA 90803, United States

“I had very high expectations for this Long Beach Italian restaurant, based on reviews I've read and on the fact that the owners are from Rome, the city where I was born and raised. I mean, it's a good restaurant and the food is good, but if I compared it to any good restaurant in Rome, it would totally lose. We had suppli' (fried rice balls with a ragù sauce and mozzarella) as an antipasto, which is a staple of Roman street food, and that was the first disappointment. Like I said, I don't mean to say the food was bad, but it was on the bland side, when compared to what you can eat in any Roman "rosticceria" or restaurant. I can say the same about the Amatriciana pasta. The pasta itself was very good and well-cooked, but the sauce was nowhere near as savory as what you'd typically get in Rome. I suspect one of the reasons is that real guanciale and 100% pecorino cheese (what the original recipe calls for) make this dish a tad too pungent for people who aren't used to this flavor. The pizza was much better and pretty much on a par with an average pizza in Rome. But not with the best pizzerias in the city. Finally, the panna cotta dessert was OK, but nothing special. Consider that this isn't a cheap restaurant, and my reviews are always based on value for the money.”

“I absolutely love this place! It has a great atmosphere as it’s really busy, we came here around 1pm! The food is absolutely incredible, light but filling. And everything tasted so great especially the bun, which was my favorite. I wouldn’t recommend the sea salted caramel drink with green tea as it’s just cream with green tea. I also love the hipster elements here, the plants and the light wood really brings this place alive ! The service is great and everyone is so friendly and attentive.”

“The hubby and I were hungry for Italian and were in the area of Gaetano’s. There was a wait for others but the bar had some seats open and also has a full menu so we sat there. Our waitress/bar tender was Stephanie, such a welcoming gal and enjoyed her company. The bread and olive oil seasoning they bring you was amazing, I ordered the lasagna and wow it was a huge serving, my husband ordered the chicken parmigiana. We loved the environment and food. Would definitely check this restaurant out again. Give it a try You won’t be disappointed 😉”

“Went on a date to celebrate getting a new job. We had the oxtail dumplings, ricotta gnocchi, eggplant, fried cauliflower, the venison loin, and the toffee pudding. The experience as a whole was fantastic. It truly felt like an artistic experience as much as a culinary one. The food was delicious and the menu is so carefully crafted for fall. The staff is top tier and are professionals without question. Definitely a life-enhancing experience and I will be back!”

“Food was OK, but nothing special. Seemed to be suited to US/LA Taste. Dishes lacked real Indian taste. Overall dishes are not well-rounded. Something was missing for perfect taste.”

635 N Lake Ave, Pasadena, CA 91101, United States

“I was looking for a breakfast spot with some decent seating and food, so I just stumbled upon here with a friend. Everything was so solid! If I imagine what a great all-American cafe diner is, this place fulfills all those expectations. So much Americana decor everywhere haha. And the waitress who served us was really sweet. Lots and lots of parking available.”

“When I asked one of the staff how long they’ve had the restaurant open, the answer I got surprised me. It made me feel like they just had opened the store as they staff were so friendly and excited about their work. Super friendly people running the store. Congrats to the owner for having such people taking care of their store and delivering high quality. Alex was amazing and he took really good care of us. The food was amazing. I recommend Both Burger Patty Melt and Billionaire Burger. This was our first time in Manhattan beach and I really enjoyed visiting the place and its people.”
