Best WLM Reviews
The place is beautiful and it’s like you walk into another world from the downtown area. It’s family friendly and date friendly. The hosts are attentive and get your order right. The food portions were great and the flavor was also good and authentic. We had the cheese bread, the chicken parmigiana and the pizza, and tiramisu as the desert. Highly recommend.
This is quite literally the best meal I have ever had in my entire life. Not kidding. Went for my son's birthday and they made it special without even asking. We had the sangria flight and the flavors were delish - my fave being the pineapple, my son's was the peach. Then we splurged and had the off menu Parmigiano Reggiano Wheel pasta with housemate noodles (linguini) and shaved truffle - the noodles were al dente and perfection, the truffle was generous and the whole spectacle of them making it there in front of you is worth the extra $$. It was creamy and delicious and every bite was a moment unto itself. Then onto the pizza - wow wow wow - I'm not usually a fan of pizza so for me to say I am now craving this dish is amazing. We chose the Pera Candita for $18.00 and it was a flavor explosion of Candied pears, caramelized onions, spinach, white sauce, goat cheese, prosciutto, and balsamic glaze. Each moist bite was perfectly paired with the thin and crispy wood fired base. It was pure perfection and every bite had a myriad of flavors and textures that just had me buzzing. Then they surprised us with complimentary champagne AND a slice of flaming chocolate birthday cake which was also moist, sweet and delicious and the staff sang happy birthday to my son. The decor is simple and pleasing, I love the open kitchen style where the chefs obviously lovingly take care of your food, the service was impeccable, our waitress Marixsa was charming and friendly and attentive and they made my son's birthday dinner one of the best we've ever had. This is a hidden gem for LA and even though we found street parking easily apparently there is a parking lot right next door. We will definitely be going back.
The food was absolutely DELICIOUS, and the atmosphere couldn’t have been more perfect! The owner, Galia, is a true hands-on business owner, and we were lucky to be served by William and Francesco, who both went above and beyond. Every dish was spectacular!
This has officially become our new favorite Italian spot for birthdays or anytime we’re craving authentic Italian cuisine. I’m honestly surprised this place doesn’t have more stars—it’s time to change that! This “hidden gem” deserves to go viral!
They made my 40th birthday extra special, and for that, I am so grateful. Thank you, God, Galia, and her incredible team!
This place has some pretty good food. The alfredo is super creamy and rich in flavor, the pizza was great and not too greasy. Servers were very nice and always attended our table. 10/10 spot .
Food was absolutely to DIE for. Honestly the best food I’ve ever had. The flavors were amazing and I recommend the Chicken Parm and the all meat calzone with mushrooms and bell peppers inside. The cheese wheel was also a fun experience and the 4 cheese baked spaghetti was great too. The only thing I disliked was an automatic tip for a party of 4 or more which caught us off guard. Overall the service was amazing and will go again.
This place was great! Our server Francesco took great care of us and gave great suggestions. The mushroom ravioli was absolutely incredible, and it’s open late so it was perfect for after our concert.
Absolutely highly recommend food is phenomenal staff gose above and beyond to make your dinning experience vip excellent wine recommendations from staff overall hands down my favorite restaurant in LA will be back here agian and agian!
Well, I'm going to tell you where I spent my birthday, I had wanted to visit this Italian restaurant in downtown Los Angeles for a long time. But we finally made reservations and I enjoyed that place too much. The food is exquisite, delicious, pleasant and above all excellent quality and all the ingredients are very fresh. Thos is the dish that I was craving for...????????????????
Pasta in a cheese wheel, also known as pasta alla ruota, is a dish of hot pasta served in a hollowed-out cheese wheel. The chef or waiter scrapes the sides of the cheese wheel bowl pasta is twirled in the cheese, which binds the starch in the pasta water with the fat in the cheese, so every single piece of pasta is coated in fresh cheese, then plated it, shaved a truffle onto it and added some pepper. This waiter put a good amount of truffle mushrooms.????⚘️???? Truffles are a type of fungus that grow underground, usually near the roots of certain trees. They are known for their strong, unique scent and their earthy, umami-rich flavor. Truffles are considered a delicacy because they are difficult to find, harvest, and preserve, and have a short shelf life.????????
The dish often originated in ltaly as an adapta- tion of risotto techniques and is popular at events like weddings, convivial settings, and it is not found in restaurants in Italy!. Some cheeses that are commonly used for this dish include Parmigiano Reggiano, Pecorino Romano, and Grana Padano.
Parmesan and Pecorino Romano are especially good for you because they have less lactose, so they're better tolerated from a health perspective. Also, cheese helps you feel fuller sooner, so you eat less."
A dish that's dramatic, delicious and healthy? No wonder it's so popular. It is for sure quite scenic.????♥️????????????????????????
A big Thanks to the Italian Chef ???????? George, one of the best ones in California, and the nice waiter???????? Thank you for such an amazing meal."
