Best Italian meal since we left Italy!!! Authentic food, pasta cooked to perfection, generous portions & adorable ambiance.
This place is so much better than Capo, Felix, Via Veneto which we have been to many times. These are all family recipes passed down generations.
We came for DineLA which was a fantastic deal at $59 for 4 courses. Two of the four courses were topped with truffle and this restaurant serves the most generous portions of truffle I’ve seen! It’s a steal!
$59 Dinner Menu: _Crostini Burata e Tartufo - simple, elegant, packed with flavor. Perfect way to start the meal.
_Tagliolini al Tartufo - hands down my favorite dish. Comparable to Spago’s white truffle pasta at $130 - no joke.
_ New York Steak, Arugula, Shaved goat cheese & 12 year aged balsamic - perfectly cooked, tender, I’m gonna top my steaks with balsamic at home. It’s amazing.
_ Dessert profiteroles - not too sweet, crispy & filled with luscious cream and Italian candies.
_ $18 Tagliatelle Verdi al Ragu (Bolognese) added this to share and for 2 people it was a ton of food. This dish is their Grandmothers recipe. One of my favorites!
Best, friendly service by Nico. He knows his food and wine. He recommended a fantastic wine Reasonable prices for Wine at $8 & $10 for our Super Tuscan & Negramaro.
Dog friendly patio & Nico our Server even asked if our pup needed water. Doesn’t happen all of the time and I really appreciate when they ask.
The Marketplace is filled with authentic Italian pastas, sauces, olive oils, balsamic vinegar and the like. We bought a jar of house made minced white truffles. Nico says to scoop one spoon over each serving of pasta & a spoon of pasta water and that’s it - perfect pasta dish. Can’t wait.
Casa Modena is now one of favorite restaurants in LA!
