Avis LA PERGOLETTA Los Angeles

GREAT DINING EXPERIENCE

This Italian restaurant is excellent, especially if you're craving something simple yet delicious like homemade gnocchi and pasta. They offer a variety of sauces to complement the pasta. The service is great, and they serve delicious sparkling water and affogato.

Outstanding homemade Italian food in a place with cute atmosphere and great service. The lunch special is surprisingly affordable. Would totally visit again.

Food: The pasta is very nicely made. Love the texture. The Ragu Bolognese sauce is nice yet I have tasted better. On the other hand, the Lasagna Boscaiola is fantastic.
Service: the staff welcomed us very warmly and the serving staff is very kind and nice as well. Lovely smile while provided recommendations.
Ambiance: the whole restaurant is more like a country side kind of casual warm setting and they reuse the wine bottles to handle the candles which is very cute. More suitable for a casual date dinner but not like a romantic one.

This place is amazing. Just go and try for yourself. If you want real home cooked Italian. Food in a setting that feels like you’re actually in someone’s home. Go here. Lasagna with mushroom sauce added is so so good!

The best if youre looking for old-school Italian/American pasta.

My family and I have been here skiing and enjoy the beautiful view of los angele. A hole on the wall for Italian food was at must ,,table for 6 , no reservations and We got the laundry special, for a place this old, management would care a bit more into detail,

I love this place. Very Northern Italian. I would say that it's the most authentic Italian place that I've been to in the United States. Their lunch specials taste like something my grandma would make. The dessert is also good.

This place had the most PERFECT pasta I've ever had. I mean, the sauce was fantastic too, but the literal pasta was beyond. Most of the pasta is made in house, from scratch, but even the penne which isn't made in house was top shelf--what I'm trying to say is that not only are the ingredients great, but the preparation is truly masterful. The pasta had the perfect al dente chew, a little over-thick compared to your everyday factory made pasta, and was alive with fresh flavor. You wouldn't think it to just see it from the street--it is kind of a hole-in-the-wall, but if you want to raise the bar by which you measure Italian pasta, this is a great place to do it.

We found this place by complete accident--we were just hungry after visiting the Griffith Observatory and had navigated to another nearby place, but... I mean, you know how parking can be. The curbs were already packed bumper to bumper, and there wasn't space in any of the lots we were passing. We literally just parked in the first open spot we found, and decided to give this place a try. It is a shame I'm only out in LA a few times per year, because I could eat here on the daily. Probably a little less of a fancy romantic dinner place, but fantastic for a more casual dinner or lunch.

obsessed w there pasta. amazing restarunt and makes all the italian dishes. it almost feels like as if you were in Italy ???????? ????highly, HIGHLY reccomend !!

Italy food ???? very perfect, only

There is delicious lasagna here, my wife and I go here every month. We were in Florence and this is what unites us across the distance, simply amazing food

Delicious Italian pastas, and very good service. Only maybe I would add more light inside, it is too dark.

The pasta was spectacular! Everything was so fresh and had a homemade taste. It was amazing! This is a new staple for any time I'm in the area!

This is one of those few restaurants that should be a destination. Like if you are visiting LA; you must come here. They go for quaint vibes which is my favorite type of vibe. I don’t like when places are pretentious. Outdoor seating is especially cute. I usually recommend this place to people by sharing the time I had the beef ragu ravioli and I was floored by how good the beef ragu INSIDE the ravioli was. Yea, this place is so good, not only is the larger concept of pasta important, but every aspect that makes up the pasta is as important if not more important. la Pergoletta doesnt just do everything right, they do it perfectly. Personally, I have just go for the ciopino seafood soup almost every time and I share pastas with whoever orders the pasta but everything I’ve had there is worth going back for.

I will give 1 star in this review, hoping to catch the owner's attention.
Don't take me wrong, the food was fantastic! I will start by saying that the host was very kind.
Unfortunately for us, our waiter is the reason for this review.
When he arrived into our table he didn't even introduce himself, he just asked us if we wanted physical menus. After a while he asked us if we were ready to order.
It was our first time visiting the restaurant, so we had questions about how creating your pasta worked. He briefly explained it to us and it seemed like he was in a rush because he didn't give us No recommendations and he didn't even give us the time to decide our dishes. My husband ordered a beer and asked about the house wine for me. Again in a hurry he mentioned what they had and my husband chose one for me. The next moment he came with 2 glasses of wine at our table and turned around immediately. We were left wondering why he would think we needed 2 glasses of wine, if my husband already had his drink on the table. We didn't want to bother him by returning it, so we decided to drink it (at the end was wine????)
Our dishes were served by other gentle staff, and after a while he came back with the card machine in his hands asking us if we going to pay by card or cash, without even asking ourselves if we needed anything else or at least dessert. The ironic thing was that in the place the tables are very close, so we could see how the other waiters were doing their best to serve their guests; an experience contrary to what we were receiving. As I said before, he didn't mention his name, but I could notice a name on the receipt, ANGEL Z. I'm not sure if this is the name of the waiter or the cashier as it is described there. He is Hispanic, like us. Hoping that his bad service was due to a bad day or a very busy day, and not because we were Hispanics, thinking that we would not leave him a good tip.
No one deserves to be treated differently because of social stigmas.

The gnocchi was good. Bruschetta was so so. Atmosphere is quaint.

Service fee. It's 4 percent just a heads up

Such a fun, charming affordable little gem! We took friends amd family for a birthday and it was such a wonderful find. Imagine these days finding a charming place with a daily lunch special that offers fresh baked foccacia, soup or salad, and a decently sized plate of HOUSE MADE PASTA with many options and a beverage and great service for 15.95??? Crazy good! And many, many options to choose from lunch or dinner. The interior is a little dark and aged but the service was lovely across the board, and splurge and get the tiramisu dessert and a nice glass of wine for a lovely time with friends.

We had two pasta dishes. The pesto alla genovese on fettuccine was superb, cooked and spiced to perfection, 5 stars. The spaghetti with broccoli aglio olio was undercooked and bland, 3 stars. Good selection of wines by the glass, served in tumblers. The delight of the meal, for me, was the cannoli for dessert- hard to find elsewhere- ideal sweet ricotta cream in a crisp pastry shell. On that alone I might have given 5 stars, but we had a 9pm reservation, and felt rushed when they closed at 10.

Lieu cosy et bon marché, pâtes, pizza ????…..
on peu se garer devant!
Super moment !

Best sandwiches in town. Also get the panna cotta with berries.

I had an amazing experience, The pasta was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The cozy ambiance and friendly staff made it even more enjoyable. A must-visit for pasta lovers! ????????

Very romantic place for some cozy Italian food. I ordered the tagliata classica with chicken breast and butter fettuccine and wow… the chicken and balsamic vinegar were braised to perfection, coming together with the parmesan for the perfect flavorful bite. Seating was quick and our server was very attentive and friendly on a weekday evening when the restaurant wasn’t too busy. You must come here if you enjoy Italian food - or just enjoy great food for that matter. Try to leave room for dessert.

Honestly, the food is great! The classic brushetta is awesome build your own pasta...this is the second time I've brought someone here for there birthday and both are impressed. Great hole in the wall. My favorite spot for Italian right now.

It was a very very long wait. Honestly I’m glad our waiter kept checking on us to see if we were good on drinks but I could also see that it was packed also… besides the wait time it was definitely worth it. My food on this photo came out nice and fresh! The chicken and the filet was just too good, all pieces came out nice and tender. The creamy Alfredo sauce was great tasting and the whole meal completely filled me and my stomach felt so happy! I hope whoever reads this will also enjoy this great gem! It is a must!
