Awesome restaurant, highly recommend. Food is fantastic, great atmosphere! Walked into entire restaurant singing ‘That’s Amore’ with the wait staff toasting everyone. Service was great, food revivals Little Italy in NYC. Definitely recommend
Love the patio and the bottomless mimosas the garlic balls to die for and the pasta de mer was fabulous
Great food...I mean those garlic knots made the experience worth the 2 miles we walked! Server was awesome, food was great. Wish there were fans or misters because it’s outdoor and we were so hot, but it was worth it.
Fantastic food! Everything was delicious and my family raved about their meals! Oh the garlic knots to die for! Chicken Parm sandwiches were soo good! A must stop!
The wife and I had dinner here last night and had a wonderful time. The service was exceptional! Our drinks were never empty and they kept our garlic knot supply coming. The food itself was fantastic! Prices were pretty good too, especially for a tourist type area. Great indoor feeling outdoor dining area had a nice vibe as well! Definitely recommend eating here!
I love this place... each time I go for a meal I’m always imagined on the hospitality and great atmosphere.. the food is insanely delicious and i can’t get enough of it..lol
We had my granddaughter's college graduation celebration here. Got seated quickly. My daughter had a Pre-Selected" Dinner Menu. Garlic knots were "da bomb" and plentiful. The food selection we had was tasty, plentiful and served quickly. Our waiter was helpful, friendly and very professional. Our group also enjoyed the nightly sing-along!!! The food and atmosphere was wonderful, and would definitely go again.
The garlic knots are best in class, and the Farfalle Genovese did not disappoint. 😋👍🏽
Always a pleasure to go to this place! AMORE! A place to bring the family together through food. Love this place Thk U Toby Great Service
My first time at Venice Beach and decided to stop by and eat near there. Right away this place caught my eye! I love Italian and while I had NEVER been satisified with any so called "authentic italian" restaurants I was a bit nervous I would be let down once again. I came with my beautiful kids and husband. Since the moment we got there they took care of our stroller and took it someplace else so it wouldnt be on the way. I must say the food was so delcious! I loved everything we got served! I cant say how much I really loved the place! The scenery was perfect, they were also very attentive to our needs! All of the waiters seem to help each other out and I must say loved the buttery garlicky bread😭😭😍 This is the place to eat! At Venice beach ✌🏻
Who in Gods name gave this place a single star??? The bread alone deserves 4 stars!! Anyone who gave this place less than 4 stars deserves a swift kick in the anal
What an amazing expirence!!!walked out feeling Italian myself,great food,great service,fun!!! Highly recommend if you're from out of town looking for a fun spot!
Took my daughter to dinner here last night and we loved it. It was our first time to Venice Beach and our dinner here topped off a beautiful evening following an amazing sunset on the beach.
The garlic knots and cheese ravioli were awesome and the house wine is no regular house wine. It was delicious. We sat outside and just took it all in and I'm so glad we wandered in here. Thank you for a great evening.
Excellent service excellent food more free garlic bread than you can eat 😀 really nice touch in this day and age to get something like that. 5 ⭐️
Great service, best linguine and clams EVER!! The garlic knots are delicious and never ending I highly recommend the Chianti on the honor system by the glass. When the whole restaurant broke out in song singing that's amore staff and patrons alike..... It was truly a memorable event, dinner doesn't capture the experience. Highly recommended!!!!
Love this place! Great food and outdoor ambiance especially in the evenings. Came back to eat here 11 years later while visiting and I am so glad I got to come back.

This Italian style restaurant is popular and charming. Portions are pretty good sized and very tasty. I would come here often if i lived in the area and it seems like there are a bunch of regulars here. Our family shared the Caesar salad, linguine shrimp and the gnocchi bolognese. All of these dishes were yummy. The endless garlic butter knots are a huge hit with my family even after the kids were done with their entrees. Didn’t get to try dessert because we were all really full. We enjoyed this place a lot.
What a treasure! Fantastic service and food, couldn't ask for more. An elevated yet cozy Italian experience. Lots of outdoor seating with heatlamps for the cold. Attentive and knowledgeable staff. Perfect place for date night. The garlic rolls are strongly flavored, and the pastas are fantastic. I enjoyed my gnocchi, it was rich and creamy. Good portions too. Definitely recommend!
Great atmosphere, with family like vibes. The staff was friendly, my waiter was well prepared and answered all of my questions. Incredible drinks, I highly recommend the Red Sangria. The food was nice. The Calamari and Mozzarella was cooked perfectly just missing a bit more flavor.
Truly a place to bring an appetite. Food was fantastic. Service was great. The atmosphere was cozy with a flair of what I imagine an Italian family dinner would be like. Apologies for the partially eaten meal picture. You could enjoy the garlic knots all night and get filled up. I had the Gargantuan Penne Genovese. My eyes were bigger than my stomach. We started with a delightful salad before the main. Just loved the whole experience. Try it out and decide for yourself.
I love this place. I've been coming for decades, ever since the wine was on an honor system and everyone sang That's Amoré on Sunday nights! The garlic rolls are as good as ever! No point trying them anywhere else. The food is good, not fine Italian dining but good.
Best garlic knots I've ever tried! Chicken parm was great too! The drink I got was a alcoholic tiramisu and it was a bit to heavy on the alcohol for me, but I don't like to taste it in sweet drinks so someone else may not mind the taste.
Absolutely LOVE C&Os! We sat outside on the enclosed patio. The superbly delicious garlic rolls were brought to our table immediately, and devoured whilst we checked out the menu. Had the penne arabiata with Italian sausage, which was delicious. The Alfredo with chicken was delicious as well. Had the house chianti, which at $9 a smallish glass was pretty expensive, but rather drinkable!
I had the razz pack to drink and the fettuccine alfredo for dinner. For a busy Saturday night the food came out in a reasonable amount of time and the drink was refreshing. The service was good, and this remains my favorite restaurant in Marina del Rey.
What an awesome restaurant! I so wish you had a location in Houston,Texas! Looking for an investor? I know a friend who loves your knots.... Great local atmosphere
Rigatoni al forno for the win! Plus the unli complimentary garlic knots that just keeps on coming! If you ran out, just raise your hand and ask for more. My husband and family love everything we had eaten here.
We came back for lunch again it’s the same Great food n great service. The garlic knots/bread keep coming. I recommend this place
The place was amazing. The food was great. The service was incredible and the servers were very accommodating. We never ran out of water or garlic bread. I also ordered a few drinks and a glass of wine. The Rosemary Chicken Ravioli was to die for. I recommend the Rosa Mint Smash. The overall experience was great. This place is very inclusive for the LGBT community. So a must try.
Ambiance and service was on point. Food was delicious! Highly recommended, omg the garlic knots were amazing!!
I got the Fet Alfredo with Chicken and it was delicious! Highly highly recommend this spot, parking was a little tight but well worth. The unlimited Garlic Knots were incredible
Had a great family meal with delicious pasta and salads - the caprese was fantastic! And yes, they serve a lot of the garlic knots - request the marinara for dipping. Our server Josie was great and took her time answering all our questions - including what options we had for gluten free pasta. Great vibe, great fun and great food!
Such a cool place to visit. Don't fill up on the delicious non stop garlic knots. Had the papperdelle with short ribs. It was amazing. Hope to get back before I leave. Oh and the mozzarella sticks and marinara! Absolutely amazing. Great service.
C&O Trattoria was everything I imagined it to be. First off, the way they keep bringing the (to die for) garlic bread to your table fresh out the oven is one of my favorite parts of the experience. I had the Pappardelle with Short Ribs... The meat was super tender and the veges were fresh.
The service was out of this world. Really friendly greeting and very attentive waitstaff.
If I lived out here I'd be here every week.
Parking is $8. If you don't want to pay, I'd suggest finding a place on the street.
I have always wanted to try C&O Trattoria, I finally had the chance to do so. My mother went with me tonight, so the two of us could try. Once we got there, we were immediately served with free garlic knots, which won us over. We have not had tasty garlic knots in a couple of years, so we certainly enjoyed these. Next we ordered calamari fritti, and Fettuccine Alfredo. For dessert, a New York cheesecake was ordered, and that was the highlight of our evening. Every dish we loved in various ways and it was powerful-fulling, certainly will return!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at an Italian restaurant in Los Angeles, and I must say it was an incredible experience. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere immediately caught my attention. The restaurant was tastefully decorated with a charming blend of rustic and modern elements, creating a cozy and relaxed ambiance.
The standout feature of the restaurant was undoubtedly the delicious food. Every dish I tried was bursting with authentic Italian flavors that transported my taste buds straight to Italy. From the perfectly cooked pasta to the flavorful sauces, each bite was a delightful journey through Italian cuisine. The menu offered a wide variety of options, catering to different preferences and dietary needs, which was a definite plus.
What truly elevated the experience, however, was the staff. The employees were not only attentive and friendly, but they also exuded a genuine passion for their work and a deep knowledge of the menu. They were more than happy to provide recommendations and answer any questions, making the dining experience feel personalized and special.
One aspect that pleasantly surprised me was the pricing. Despite the high quality of the food and the overall experience, the prices remained reasonable and logical. This made the restaurant an excellent choice for both a casual night out and a special occasion.
In conclusion, this Italian restaurant in Los Angeles offers a winning combination of delectable food, kind and knowledgeable staff, a wonderful atmosphere, and reasonable prices. Whether you're craving a romantic dinner, a family outing, or simply a taste of Italy, this restaurant is undoubtedly worth a visit.
