Stumbled onto this gem of a restaurant! The service and food is outstanding. Some of the best Italian food in this city! Can’t wait to be a regular customer. I walked there, but you should run! #amazing
Being from a 99% Italian neighborhood in New Jersey my opinions on food are probably skewed to the East Coast. However, this humble little place is the real deal. Hidden away in the Culver City Arts District, it might fly under the radar but that just makes it our little secret. Family from Naples owned and operated. Truly friendly service. I always recommend asking what's "not on the menu." The daily specials are usually the best.
Awesome food. Great people and I would be back again. Parking around neighborhood is a little though but worth it
Went to Brunello's for my nieces last day in LA before flying back to Boston. She wanted Italian, I thought why would you come back to LA for Italian when some of the best places for Italian food are back east. Well I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the authentic taste and flavors my palate experienced today. The homemade bread is to die for, the pasta was perfectly cooked. Everything I tried was absolutely delicious. The service was impeccable. Will be coming back. Thanks Yelp for helping in our decision to try this lovely restaurant.
Excellent Italian food. Superb service!. Highly recommend
Always delicious. Always great service. Always that personal touch. The bread is to die for and a bit addicting!!!
I felt like I was in Italy. Beautiful pastas, meats, salads, and veggies done only like Italian cooks can. Everything was perfectly seasoned, of course. Gracious and relaxed servers made us feel comfortable. Can't wait to go back to Culver City, take I more of the art scene, and end up back at Brunellos for dinner and linger. Our party loved the semi-privacy of the back room, but the bar looks inviting too. Nice energy. I envy the locals!
Brunello is as good as it gets! Amazing and unparalleled in quality, freshness and taste. We love the atmosphere and the service as well!!!
Brunello had the most exquisite crab salad! The pasta is divine and the service was impeccable! Thank you so much! ❤️ed it!!!
The food, service and ambience was great! I can't wait to go back and try a couple more dishes...
Everything thing was great. The food and the service. I will go again when I am in LA.
Consistently beautiful food each time I visit! Divine meats and sauces.
Consistent in high quality and good service. It is a family owned and operated business after all.
This is an absolute gem in Culver City and is a family-owned business for over 17 years!
It’s located just a bit outside of downtown Culver City and there are plenty of parking spaces around the area. This is the perfect place for “you can’t judge a book by it’s cover”. The decors could freshen up a bit, but everything else is top notch!
I’m a huge fan of Biance & Etta, and I feel Brunello Trattoria is definitely up there as well. Servers were pleasant and happy. Food came out hot and has that home-cooking taste to them (in a good way, and they told me mom is the main chef). And, make sure you save some room for their dessert…yum! 😋
We love Brunello's Trattoria for so many reasons: This is a family owned restaurant and treat you like family. They are committed to make our dining experience superb. The father or daughter or server ask us, " How is the food?". They want to make sure we are happy with it.
Everything is fresh, their salads and soups are delish, their pasta and gnocchi are homemade.
I love their Pollo Marsala, their risotto, their pizzas ( I love mine with anchovies or their prosciutto and arugula pizzas.) They bring me back to the pizzas I ate in Neapolitan restaurants when I was a young girl or their pastas bring me back to my aunt and uncle's dining room time and again. I feel nostalgic of those times and that amazing food.
Now my family and I can enjoy delicious Italian food whenever we want. We are so grateful!
Try it and I promise, you won't be disappointed.
Buon Appetito!
My sister dined at Brunello Trattoria this past weekend and raved positively about the dining here, so we decided to go have an experience with the rest of the family tonight. It was a wonderful dining experience 😋!
Food was delicious and on point. My favorites were the granchi (deep fried soft shell crab) and the Linguini Pescatore. I preferred the tiramisu and my sister liked the profiteroles (cream puffs). The pasta was cooked perfectly Al dente with the right amount of chewy.
We look forward to coming back and trying other dishes!
The Birra Moretti is a new favorite beer I discovered here. It’s light like a peroni beer but slightly maltier!
I've been eating here for about 5yrs. I've never ordered anything that was not excellent. Last night we had a pizza and a pasta that was so good I can't wait to get to the leftovers 🍝. Great personal service, great food.
Delicious & fresh Italian cuisine. House made bread. Amazing Chef Sinia accomadated our requests by alterering her dishes. Reasonably priced. Check times before going as they vary. Nice community corner gem.

Friends and I came here for their dineLA lunch menu on a Friday. We were warmly welcomed and immediately offered water and their homemade bread, which was yummy (for LA bread but I digress). The oil oil and balsamic vinegar added that extra oomph to the bread. We each ordered an appetizer and an entree for only $15! The portions were larger than you might expect. My bruschetta was amazingly beautiful and tasted delicious. I could eat it all day and all night. My other friend who ordered off the dineLA menu ordered the white bean soup and said it was tasty. We each ordered the chicken with pasta in a lemon sauce, which had an underwhelming lemony taste. It would have used some lemon zest to kick it up a notch. The pasta was cooked perfectly el dente. The third person in our group ordered a salad and a small pizza, both of which looked great.
The service was top shelf. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with white table cloths covered with white paper. Why do Chinese restaurants use real table cloths and others do not? What am I missing here? Anyway, we found the restaurant pleasant although it got very loud when it was full during peak lunchtime.
There was plenty of 2 hour metered Culver City street parking but be careful as CC parking police are brutal.
Their regular lunch and dinner menus look both authentic and inviting at this Italian family run restaurant. I look forward to returning!
Lovely staff and a friendly atmosphere. The menu's strength is its appetizers. Many pastas are good, but the menu could use a spicy puttanesca. The pizza should be avoided. The ice cream options are great -- loved the candy crust on some. The pre-dinner bread is unremarkable and probably not worth the calories. A pleasant spot overall, with the staff and service a real highlight.
Wonderful food, and amazing staff!! The Pasta Genovese, and Gnocchi pesto is unbelievable!
