This place just screams fun. Walking in is like stepping back in time. Looking up, you wonder if this is a Hollywood prop or did someone drink that much Chianti. The sound of piano hits you as you step inside. And for the lover of movies or stage, you'll recognize the tunes. And stick around long enough, the staff may pick up a microphone and sing a tune. The food is definitely shareable, so choose wisely. The Pizza options are good for families, and the salads are just too large for one person. The lasagne is good and hearty while the chicken lasagne disappeared from my friends plate too quickly for me to even attempt a taste. While I only gave the food 3 stars, it isn't because it's bad, but it doesn't stand out. But if you are in Hollywood and have a group of people to feed, this is a terrific place. You get good food, an amazing atmosphere and possibly a show all for a reasonable price.

A well known Hollywood institution, my friend used to come here 40 years ago. I loved it immediately because you can feel the history and the moody ambiance is fun and atmospheric. The service is good , prices reasonable and the food delicious,. We had fried zucchini ( deep fried zucchini fritters), spaghetti with meatballs, garlic bread and lasagne. Everything was delicious but pretty rich ( the garlic bread large slices of doughy deliciousness). Only fault is that the meatballs, marinara and lasagne had a lot of garlic. I understand, being Italian , this is expected but it was almost overkill ..Overall, I loved it. Recommend .

Fantastic food - great ambiance in a traditional Italian restaurant. If your looking for the perfect meal, candles (LED) on the tables and live piano and waitstaff that sings too, this is a must stop, family owned, local eatery. Service was adequate, but a bit slow at times (took nearly 10 mins for first contact from our waitress). Still, if we lived in this area, this would be a regular place for us, no doubt about it.
