The food and service are great. I highly recommend the Chicken Marsala or Jumbo Raviolis. If it is your first visit, they will most likely give you a free dessert.
Fave: Pasta - Chicken Marsala; OK: Fried Pillows, Jumbo Ravioli.
artichoke stuffed gnocci with shrimp and basil cream sauce - warm and gooey, melts in your mouth, perfect for cold night
amazing - full of imported italian foods- I went after my recent Italy trip helped me pick the best olive oil out of the many choices and refrigerated items look great too. definitely be back!
Under the radar, go-to spot for authentic Italian cured meats on the west side of LA (and other goodies imported from Italy).
Chicken Marsala bowl is delish!
The superfood veggie burger is amazing. Try the chocolate vegan soft serve.
Gluten-free, vegetarian & vegan offerings. Look at the funny Obama mural on the wall!
Home made flat pasta w/ clam & black olive is the best dish!
Pappardelle in lamb sauce FTW!
principesa salad rocks
Calamari is so delish.
What a decent place! Everything is oh so delish! The steamed clams and mussels are so great. Very juicy! Get it :) And oh, folks who work here are/speak Italian so this place is legit!
What a wonderful place. The patio is my new favorite area to sit and eat this wonderful food. The specials are a good bet.
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.
The cook deserves a gol medal, the ribs were so tender and delish and the seafood pasta was amazing. Definitely one if my favorite places in LA
Order the Cesar Salad - one of the best (if not the best) in town.
Staff was friendly and nice. You can try New York and filet mignon that they were delicious. Tabi en son bide cayla tamamlayabilirsiniz . 10 numara mekan
The crispy cuban is a great starter!
My worst dinner in Santa Monica
The Caesar Salad with Anchovies is delicious! Garlic bread made from scratch. Everything is delicious you will love it!
Get the lasagna! Really nice family restaurant
An amazing little place, great food for a great price!
the farfalle la vecchia is fantastic - baby lobster, alba mushrooms, asparagus, and a light tomato-based sauce. i always substitute the farfalle for linguine.
Excellent spot for a date or dinner w/the family. Reservations are a must for parties >4. Staff is consistently attentive & the food is always fabulous! ...remember, you get what you pay for ;-)
Really good burrata cheese and prosciutto salad.
Classic SAnta MOnica joint. Cozy but, nice. Everything walkable before or after.
Chez Jay's motto: 'Peanut shells on the floor or you're out the door!' :)
The first time I ever went here, the bartender put my first drink on the house. I guess that's not really a tip, but you should take it for what it's worth. Awesome place!
The Gilson Scramble is amazing!
Grab and go, or sit and eat. Plenty of options, but be forewarned: even the simplest egg sandwich runs 12-13 bucks.
great food, cute atmosphere!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
