Such a great treat if you’re in the area. The staff were accommodating of our seating request and the turnaround time was pretty quick.
We loved the black truffle pasta with the added cheese wheel. Definitely worth the extra $23.
Make sure you try the panacotta as well! SO flavourful and fluffy (like a cloud)!
This 30 years Italian restaurant offers really authentic and tasty dishes. It definitely passes the test of time. Everything was delicious and the server was nice and professional. Overall, a very good experience in Beverly Hills.
I had an amazing dining experience at Il Pastaio in Beverly Hills! The pasta is simply outstanding; it's like taking a culinary trip to Italy. The ambiance and service were top-notch too. I highly recommend visiting if you're a fan of Italian cuisine!
This place has beautiful vibes and a special menu, Justin Bieber pasta, whichever he likes to eat. All the servers wear uniforms. It looks professional. The food was nice, too.
Il Pastaio is a staple Italian Restaurant in Beverly Hills. It is a culinary experience and the food is always delicious. Almost always busy so it is best to make reservations or prepare to wait for a table. It is worth the wait every time, whether you dine indoors or outdoors. Excellent service and ambience. If you are in Beverly Hills and love Italian food, then you should go to Il Pastaio.
Although we went there without a reservation at 9:30 pm, we were able to get a table. This restaurant stays open until 11 pm, which is convenient.
We ordered calamari fritti, salad, pasta with truffle, past with clams, squid ink risotto, and steak. Everything was fantastic! We tried to go back there again during our trip, but unfortunately, we didn’t have the chance. I’ll definitely visit there again on my next trip to L.A. Thank you so much!
It's a Beverly Hills hotspot with a nice outdoor patio for people watching. The pasta is made fresh daily (so I hear), and the sauces are simple but flavorful. The menu is short and concise, but there's something for everyone.
- The prices are reasonable, especially for Beverly Hills.
- The staff is knowledgeable about the food and wine.
- The restaurant is a popular spot for celebrities and other well-heeled diners.
Overall, Il Pastaio is a great place to enjoy some good pasta and people watch meal. It's the kind of place where you can feel like you're part of the LA scene, even if you're just a tourist. But don't wear a nice watch when dining there.
A really delicious and elegant dinner and beautiful Beverly Hills. It’s right on the corner of N Canon, and they have just as much outdoor seating as indoor seating. Both options would be good and both areas are very lively. Outside is well covered and heated and the tables weren’t too close. They don’t have parking, however, they offer valet for $15. We were able to find metered parking a block away so it was a short walk. Otherwise your only other option would be a paid parking garage. Parking in this part of Beverly Hills is a bit difficult due to how busy it always is.
Our server was really polite and very prompt. They did a fantastic job with drink refills, honestly as soon as my drink would get halfway done they would come over and refill it. They have a huge menu with a ton of options but I have always heard about their truffle pasta, so I was zoned in on that. To start, we chose the Beef Carpaccio and the Bresaola starters. Both were fantastic and we really enjoyed them. I wish there was more meat on the Bresaola plate but still it was very good. For our entrées we chose the Black Truffle Tagliolini and the Agnolotti. The truffles were a great addition and I should have done the cheese wheel option as well but since we were sitting outside I decided to pass.
This is a really elegant and great place to have dinner. It would be good for a casual or formal occasion and especially great for a date. It’s a bit expensive, but not overly so, there are other more expensive places close by even though they are not better than Il Pastaio.
I found Il Pastaio on instagram. I'm a lover of all things truffle and found myself in Beverly Hills. So good.
Made reservations in advance. Arrived and was seated right away. Service was wonderful.
We shared a wonderful salad that had shaved artichoke hearts and a citrus dressing. I think it was on their specials menu.
I had Black Truffle Tagliatelle. Amazing!! Very large portion as well. I didn't add the cheese wheel on. For me, that's just not worth the $$.
My husband had another Black Truffle dish with a ravioli (I can't remember the name). It was very good, but for him the serving size was a little small.
We will be back next time we are in LA.
***Be sure to make reservations. This place fills up fast. We had the first reservation of the day and when we left almost every table was full.
I had a delightful dining experience at this Beverly Hills gem. The Calamari Fritti was a perfect start, followed by the heavenly Ravioli Di Spinaci E Ricotta. The Risotto Nero and Linguine Con Crostacei were culinary masterpieces. The prices were justified for the quality. The service was exceptional, making it a top recommendation for friends and family.
Calamari Fritti for $22.75
Ravioli Di Spinaci E Ricotta for $23.95
Risotto Nero for $29.75
Linguine Con Crostacei for $35.95
