   Fantastic experience experience. Went to dinner with my kids and Chef Giacomino Drago came out and made the night special by chatting them up, and even sent us home with a pasta kids. Not only was the food fantastic but the service is top notch. Kids are over the moon about it and won’t stop talking about it.

   Too many dogs. Felt like I was in a dog park. Sat next to the kitchen.

   Disappointing Experience – Un Charming Staff & Poor Seating Choice Today I visited il Pastaio with my 12-year-old son, and unfortunately, the experience was far from what I expected. This is a place you visit for the ambiance, but despite available seating, we were placed outside in the back. It felt like we were being profiled simply for dining as a parent and child. To make matters worse, the hostess was unfriendly and seemed to prioritize guests arbitrarily, seating some people ahead while barely acknowledging others. The food here is decent , I’ve been here before , but let’s be honest—that’s not why you come here. After waiting 20min for the server to take our order , we decided to leave and order Room Service at The Peninsula .

   Average good. Dated feel. Overrated. Wasn’t impressed.

   My server was really nice and the other staff as well. Visiting LA and a friend of mine recommended it for me. I love the vibe of the restaurant its very chic and everyone is so professional. Best pasta so far! Thank you.
