Try the pasta della casa and the cesear salad. The pasta is amazing with shrimp, and scallops in a tomato cream sauce and they make the cesear at the table.
Old school Italian restaurant with all the staples. The veal parmigiana was smothered in delicious tomato sauce and mozzarella. Be sure to get the Caesar to start, it's a really tasty one.
Order the Cesar Salad - one of the best (if not the best) in town.
Get the (bayti) dish which is: Istanbul kabab wrapped with bread & tomato sauce. Absolutely phenomenal. Their lamb chops are very good too!
I definitely recommend the Kebab Beyti. It's Kebab rolled in bread and topped with tomato sauce really good and worth a try. Unlike many Turkish restaurants, They don't serve complementary tea.
My best spot in LA. Try beef kebap and kunefe...
Best Italian joint in LA. Start with the polenta. Penne w/ langostine and spicy tomato sauce... incredible! Pair it with Shiraz. Finish off your meal with the panna cotta and a shot of espresso
Get the sweet corn agnolotti with the Dover sole and don't look back
Best Northern Italian in BH!
I had the zucchini flower pizza and dough tomato sauce and toppings were delicious. Only a little bit slow service from the kitchen
Solid neopolitan thin style pizza. Classic toppings are the way to go. Nice edition to milo and olive for your west side pizza needs 👍
As seen on The Chef Show, Daniele Uditi grew up and came from Naples, even bringing his starter in a jar with him to the US. San Marzano tomatoes produced just for him on his parcel of land.
Tamales ($1.50): Order tamale with Monterey jack, spicy sliced jalapenos, and light tomato sauce OR pork tamale with tender chunks of shredded pork shoulder slathered with a mildly spicy salsa
Better than Lilliana's. The best tamales in East L.A. Their pan dulce is pretty good too.
Best Tamales in Los Angeles. Be prepared to wait in line out the door if you don't come early enough in the AM in Dec. It will be worth the wait.
Crispy thin crust, amazing tomato sauce, eclectic toppings. Need I say more?
if you're looking at a building which doesn't look open or like a pizza place, walk around back. Only the persistent will ne rewarded.
get the grandma pizza, shit is dooooooooope, also David L. sux dix
Walter Manzke, chef of Wildflour Cafe + Bakery, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Strozzapreti w/ sausage & tomato sauce. Read more.
The warm tripe is a must have. Ask for it if it's not on the menu.
High quality rustic Northern Italian fare served within a small, minimalist space. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Petite pizzas with thin, crisp crusts. Excellent topping with a bold tomato sauce.
Great service, comfortable atmosphere and food that will keep you coming back for more. Brunch here is a must do!
I'm a pizza snob transplant from PA & NY, but I actually like the Bianca pizza (with kale, ricotta & mozzarella).
The pizza is the best in the area. Chewy crust and delicious tomato sauce make the whole thing taste yummy.

Great subs! The best in town
Terroni is a reliable go-to for a week night meal. Order the tagliolini in canna a mare with clams, mussels, calamari, scallops and tiger shrimp in a buttery tomato sauce. Read more.

The BEST Italian I ever had. The gnocchi are pizza are heaven. Everything here is great, even the olive oil. Save some room for sweet rose creamery down the block.
Killer lunch spot. Grab a seat outside and people watch like a total creepo. Bolognese with tomato cream sauce and peas. Do it!
I had the "Grape Escape" & "Razzle Dazzle" martini's..the Calamari with spicy sauce for appetizer and the ribs for main! AMAZING!!!
One of my favorite LA restaurants. Tanino Drago does it again.
Tomato sauce is fantastic either on pizza or pasta!
The atmosphere inside is incredible. Super modern with a live DJ. A real family hotspot in the evening, but segways into a young and hip late night hotspot. Great beers on tap
If you don't mind the awful service, the pizza is good.
Try the Spicy pork and ricotta meatballs - Spicy pork and ricotta meatballs in tomato sauce
"A good way to start is with a plate of dreamy jamon ibérico and maybe saffron arancini stuffed with smoked mozzarella, or the grilled pork belly bao." Read more.
Taste a range of varietals and Mediterranean small plates in a 1,900-square-foot former home that was built in the 1940s. More on owner owner Claudio Blotta's vision. Read more.
Adorable, affordable place with an authentic bistro vibe (and a great happy hour!) Really nice escargot, and delicate calamari not fried, in a light tomato sauce as standouts.
Best happy hour that i've found in LA. Go for the $5 carpaccio. Read more.
The double cappuccino comes in a soup bowl here, apparently.
The Polenta Fries with Parmesan and Tomato Sauce are TO DIE FOR!
The menu is extraordinary, with riffs on seasonal favorites like Brussels sprouts cooked with house-cured bacon, bourbon and maple syrup.
Harvest salad... watermelon, feta, almonds... FTW!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
