Neighbourhood gem

One of LA’s best Italian restaurants, Locanda Veneta aims to transport you to Venice, Italy. Where the freshest and often deceptively simplest ingredients are combined and cooked into art. The cozy room, often dotted with celebs, is elegant but there’s nothing fussy about the menu. Here you’ll find favorites such as a fresh-vegetable minestrone; wild mushroom risotto; and spinach and ricotta cheese gnocchi. Garlic, fresh herbs and olive oil dress many of the pasta, meat and fish dishes; and the veal scaloppini gets a different preparation every night. When an Italian spot is as classic as this, how can you skip a dessert of tiramisu? Our extensive wine list complements your meal, with selections mainly from Italy, France and California.

Outstanding food and service. Unfortunately, there were a couple of groups that were excessively loud that night (no fault of the restaurant) which was difficult for noise level in such a small space. I still love Locanda Veneta and will return again and again.

We throughly enjoyed our experience. The waiters are all authentic and seasoned servers. I had the best mushroom ravioli with truffle of my life. The wine pour is substantial. My husband said it’s one of the best meals he has had. The ambiance is very quaint. I will definitely come back if I’m in LA again.
