Reviews for Italy's Little Kitchen in Los Angeles, CA
I ordered shrimp fettuccine to go. It came with bread. I asked for & received cheese and crushed peppers as well as oil and the... vinegar (or whatever it's called for the bread) on the side. It was delicious ???? Read more
Only 3 stars … doesn’t mean it was a bad meal, it was just average. It was take out, so we couldn’t gauge the service and... ambiance …. So this is just the food. Delivery was very good. The minestrone was delicious, tasted very home made, a littleoily, but delicious. After that, everything was “ok good, just not great”. We don’t feel anything was made with love …just basic, enough to get by, Italian food. Pepperoni pizza, there’s no bad pizza .. this was just average. As an example,last night we had pizza from another local spot, and it blew us away - like OMG, but this was just average ok good. Italiansalad … just “ok”, would rather have had more vinegar and oil w spices than a blob of goo. Would have been nice for morecarrots, cukes, maybe some sliced salami, better lettuce? Bread - pretty good. Chicken Marsala … same, pretty good and basic.Weirdly very sweet? But ok tasty. Meatballs … I kind of judge Italian restaurants by their meatballs …. These were VERYlame. Very hard, just tasted like hard rolled finely ground meat - was hard to cut through, we both agreed. Meatballs should betender and tasty … but I’m going to guess they were frozen from Sysco, definitely not home made, did I say tiny - andbummer, no sauce, no side of cheese - a tiny ping pong ball, if that. If they were homemade … please call for my recipe, I canhelp. I really can’t believe they sell these frozen hard nuggets of no flavor - not bad flavor, just no flavor. Please -Italian restaurants …. Make a good meatball!! Finally, dessert. Chocolate cake … teeny tiny piece that was ok at best,tasted like a cheap grocery store cake. Not bad, just ok at best. And did I say tiny???? $6.95 for a few bites. I’d be happierpaying $15 for a great big slice. In summary, was this a bad meal, not at all. Would I go back? No, unless the chef invited meand promised to upgrade the quality and chef skills. This was basic ok - you’ll be happy if you’re really hungry … butnot for the ok food. Again, it wa Read more
Truly a hidden Gem for Italian food. The entire family loved it even made comments like this is the best Italian food we've ever... had. I personally thanked the chefs. I recommend the lasagna it's my favorite Read more
Really good food and excellent service in a bare bones environment. Surprisingly good. Music is nice, too. The chefs nail... cooking shrimp to succulent perfection. The warm yeast bread dropped on the table as you arrive is a problem ... it's delicious.Dining in is fine as they keep the air flowing, I'd just make sure they are not crowded. Read more

Great Italian restaurant. The service is good, and the food is outstanding. The start you of with a warm mini loaf of bread with... evoo and balsamic for dipping. We had the frutti de mare and the lobster ravioli, and they were amazing. They truly understandthe sauce per pasta and bread ratio. Also, all of the servers are very nice. It's our second time here and it will be our newdate night place. Read more
