Angelini Osteria

"Angelini Alimentari is the casual, all-day sister restaurant to Angelini Osteria—one of the best pasta spots in LA. But don’t come to Alimentari expecting a plate of tortellini at lunch hour. Instead, you’ll find salads, sandwiches (the meatball sub is a must), great coffee, and perhaps the best gelato we’ve had in Los Angeles. Its excellent outdoor patio doesn’t hurt either." - Brant Cox

"You could probably walk past this dime-sized Italian restaurant on Beverly Blvd. a hundred times and not notice it, but that would be a huge mistake on your part. For well over a decade, Angelini Osteria has served some of the best old-school Italian dishes in the city. It’s fancier (and better) than the somewhat generic space might make you think it would be, and you should plan on dropping some serious money. It’s worth it though—from sea urchin linguine to veal shank agnolotti, this is where real pasta happens." - brant cox, sylvio martins

" Although it will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, Angelini Osteria in Beverly Grove is offering large trays of their excellent Italian menu for Turkey Day takeout. If you plan on ordering from their to-go menu, expect dishes like a whole porchetta, butternut squash lasagna, chestnut soup, and carrot-nutella cake. " - kat hong, nikko duren, garrett snyder

"This classic Italian restaurant in Beverly Grove is packed every single night of the week with regulars who get greeted with a firm, familiar handshake and a kiss on the cheek. And sure, “it isn’t the cool hip spot, but the food is traditional,” Giada says. “I feel good when I leave there…and I can practice my Italian.”" - brennan carley

"Angelini Osteria is a Beverly Boulevard legend thanks to chef Gino Angelini and his incredible pasta-making skills. From the restaurant’s signature lemon cream pasta to the linguine with sea urchin and the fried basil-topped lasagna — this is a true haven for pasta lovers." - Cathy Chaplin, Eater Staff
