Great food, everything is FRESH, authentic and made from scratch. Lovely atmosphere and friendly service. Always understandably busy. Almost a hidden gem. Not hidden but kinda off the beaten path.

I love, love, love the food here. My faves are Linguini w/Pesto and the Scagliarini Pizza (I order w/olive oil instead of tomato sauce so I get the full flavor of the arugula and parma ham!) This location and the one on Crenshaw are both great.
Love the rock pizza and Roger canzone, pasta is deliciouamaZing fresh bread with spicy olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and deserts to die for including fresh pastries and fresh Gelato! Yum yumm yumm !
Please support this amazing local business!! The covid set up is not what you want when you go out to eat BUT I didn't question any of the things they've done to comply with the restrictions. The quality of food & service was great. I took my mom to lunch with her bf and my bf. 4 people. 3 pizzas, an entree, a salad, ice tea and 2 beers was just under $100. We all really enjoyed the fresh, delicious flavors of our meals. Not a single complaint. Order take out or go eat on the patio set up. It was a gorgeous afternoon. It was quiet and a nice birthday lunch. The owner even ran out to my car as we were leaving to give my mom a complimentary dessert after he over heard me tell her happy birthday. No photos of food. We were all starving and dug right in before we even considered stopping for a photo.
First time there, it looks like a warehouse from the outside but as soon as you go in its looks nice and the food is amazing I ordered a pizza and wow !!!! I'll be going back soon!
Very good place to eat! This is a hidden gem that you might drive by a couple of time before realizing where it is and once inside, it really is impressive with how they turn it into a restaurant. Very nice!
Great local place. Very good service and close to home. Favorite app is the prosciutto and burrata. Fresh, nice serving size. Soup is simple but great!
Service is dismal, no smile or greeting when placing bread of basket on the table, even the food was a disappointment. My order of fusilli with mushrooms and slices of fillet mignon tasted like salted cardboard...the Zagat rating should be removed from their front door.
Wonderful Italian food choices. Ingredients imported from Italy. Cheeses made on site. Giloto made on site. Great Espressos. They do have a bar. Acoustics loud as this setting is an actual warehouse setting...But well worth the drive.
Always AMAZING FOOD!!!! Consistently delicious..... Homemade pastas, pizza and an extensive bakery with all kinds of delightful pastries! They even have an assortment of Gelato to choose from....... This place won't disappoint!!
First time here. Service was excellent. Food arrived quickly. We decided to split a pizza and the lasagne with the meat ragu. The lasagne was really good. The meat ragu was so tasty. The pizza was the thin crust. It was a little flimsy in the middle so hard to pick up the slice. (The next day cooking in frying pan w/ a little olive oil tasted much better). The star of the meal was the house cake. Creamy and decadent you will not be sorry. The candied almonds on top give it another added flavor/dimension. It goes great with a cappuccino! Will definitely be back. Would love to try their other homemade pastas.
Had the Rosemary chicken pieces with veggies in a balsamic reduction. $15.50-Excellent. House primitivo was very tasty. Bread-excellent. Next time I'll get the one with tagliatelle noodles. Very loud for lunch @12, concrete floors and glass. Get there early, 11 am?
By far the best Italian restaurant in the South Bay! It is an unusual location being in the middle of an industrial area of Gardena, but there are always long lines out front for a reason. Big groups are no problem but calling ahead and making reservations is a good idea for any party bigger than 6. The house wines are great, the bread and appetizers are all spot on. Pastas made fresh daily as are the pizza dough and desserts. Speaking of dessert, two words - Gelato bar! Just like the ones in Italy! There is not a single thing on this menu that I would not order over and over again. Highly recommend this gem!
The pizza was good if you like super thin crust. Service is kind of "snobby". Hate that you have to get up and get your own dessert. Valet parking only.
This place is amazing. It s in a warehouse. The Italian food is extraordinary. There is a pizza that you can only find in Trastevere, the old Jewish Ghetto of Rome, it s called the Giudita pizza, paper thin and delicious. They make their own mozzarella, the desserts are to die for. The place is packed so expect a wait... it s worth it!
Great food, casual family friendly atmosphere. Excellent value. This place is always filled. The fresh tagliatelle pasta is killer and save room for the homemade gelato.
This place it's amazing!!! All food is so great. I wil recomend the Marlon Brando pizza is delicious, lasagna is divine and definitely all desserts are beautiful.
Had been wanting to go back since my first visit but distance had kept me away. I was very satisfied with my server's wine suggestion for my order. One of LA's hidden gems serving Italian Dishes from the Bolognese region of Italy
One and done with this place. You can find better Italian places with better tasting food that isn't over priced. Plus the spot is located in a weird location between an industrial area and boarder lines the city Compton. Parking is hard to find and had to park across the main street. Save yourself some time and look else where.
