Early World Restaurant

Sadly early world is closing in a month or so. Landlord doubled the rent! Owner decided to retire. Sad. Italian place is going in. It will be really sad to see them go. Brentwood is changing. It is the way of the world but still part of me wish that somethings stayed the same. Go grab a bite there before it goes.

Great breakfast. Large portions, so prepare your stomach. Strong coffee, which is a good thing. It's in Brentwood, so it will be costly.

Great old school cafe, but they will be closing forever in a few months. The new landlord tripled their rent. Too bad.

Great breakfast mornings and early afternoons. Friendly staff. Good coffee and wide-ranging menu. Great for a quick morning bite.

This diner must be one of the best hidden restaurants in LA. Highly recommend coming here for breakfast some time.

Too bad this place will be closing down. Great place to go get breakfast burritos. Where will I get my breakfast burritos now?

Quaint, hole in the wall, diner. Good for breakfast and lunch. We used to go here after visiting the nearby farmers market

I worked at your place in Hollywood . Food is excellent and reasonable price . . ☺

As a Brentwood local, we frequent Jon & Vinny's often. First we got the garlic bread, which is only one piece btw, but it is a good one piece (about three bites). The white pizza was very good, the margarita was basic, but still good. The Cacio e Pepe is also amazing, however it was better when it was rigatoni. The tiramisu is also amazing. The service was good, however, they say the meals come out whenever they please- not all at the same time, so if it's a large party might be weird. The seats are all wooden btw so they're uncomfortable. BUT LASTLY, the ambiance is not what you would expect...more specifically the music: Playing Ice Spice in an Italian restaurant is DIABOLICAL.

Loved the pasta! I usually like the cantaloupe + prosciutto combo but it wasn't that good at this location. The pizza was also okay in my opinion. I had some high expectations for a Michelin guide restaurant. However, service was great and our waitress did a great job explaining the menu. The restaurant was also dimly lit and nice ambiance. The music was a bit loud and hard to converse.

From when we walked in the door to a basically empty restaurant for lunch, exactly on time for our reservation, to when someone actually came to take our order, it took 25 minutes. Pretty hard to enjoy an hour long lunch in that context. Never saw the server again until we asked for the check. Food was great though!

I'm going to be real: the food was pretty good, but it is most definitely not a bang for your buck. The vibes, on the other hand, amazing, superb even. If you were to imagine a stereotypical LA restaurant, Jon & Vinny's would make the cut. Patrons are basically the West LA population and the outdoor seating is vibey af. I recommend eating outside if you want to have an actual conversation with your party or date. Most dishes are vegetarian friendly and the salad selection is extensive. My friends and I ordered the Gem Lettuce Salad, which tasted like an elevated caesar salad. We also got the LA Woman Pizza, pesto pasta, and their ravioli. The LA Woman Pizza... it was like crack. The crust was thin, the tomato sauce delectable with a smidge of sweetness, and the burrata and basil toppings were chef's kiss. It's so basic but for some reason, probably hunger if I'm being honest, it hit the spot. The pesto pasta surprisingly carried a lot of umami. As a big Pesto Girl, I loved the herby, savory, and cheesy flavor from the sauce, which the pasta held onto well, according to my friends. Unfortunately, the ravioli did not carry the same wow factor. It looked like 5 measly raviolis drowning in tomato sauce. Nothing special. Disappointing, considering the price was hefty for what we received. The pesto pasta was also lacking in portions. To get the most value out of your experience, I suggest you do family style with your friends because this restaurant caters to the skinty, Pilates, Erewhon girl. And that is not me :( As for service, it was great! Our waitresses were so kind and gave us amazing recommendations. As much as I love their service though, it is not enough to justify a second visit. There are better Italian restaurants with a price value greater than Jon & Vinny's

I was honestly surprised at how long the wait was without a resy! ohh "LA"...excited to hear they're opening one in studio city, which will also be better because they'll have a full bar! I was a bit distracted by the coloring book placemats (I love to color), and our waiter Andres' beautiful accent. So much so that I didn't take enough pics, and I think my food got too cold where it wasn't as good but still pretty delicious! My friends and I ordered some pasta and then we shared a pizza. I originally thought we'd order personal pasta and then pizza to share but I guess not! Haha it was all good though. We wanted to celebrate with something sparkling so Andres had the sommelier come over to us and give us some options and they were just wonderful! We got a bottle of this delicious Italian sparkling that he mentioned was a hybrid(?) and got sad we finished it so quickly! Our friends ordered a small dessert and they comp'd us a cookie and some ice cream and I teased getting a candle since it was a celebration and Andres still brought it out! Hahahaha amazing man. My friend and I both wrote our numbers down on a napkin not realizing until later that he could've thought we wanted to be in a throuple LMAO. No, we just both shot our shot not knowing what his sexuality was because of course ...we're professionals not being professional in his place of work where he's professional. We had a good time! Oh and I forgot to mention that PLAYLIST THOUGH?! Idk who was in control of that but didn't seem like anyone was paying attention except our table who was jamming! 112 peaches & cream?! Beyoncé's partition. Thank you for fulfilling my throwback Thursday needs. Now will I be back?! Maybe..if I can stand to show my fave again LOL THANK YOU GOOD PEOPLE!

Jon & Vinny's is on the pricier side, but for the most part, the food was great. The Buttermilk Pancakes were delicious. They were light and had crispy-ish edges, although expensive for a stack of medium-sized pancakes ($17.75). The Breakfast Pizza 2.0 ($23.95) was also great. Nice crust, very flavorful and I thought the eggs would be over cooked, but they were perfectly runny. The Gem Salad with Calabrian Dressing ($17.95) was drowning in dressing. Our servers were very nice and helpful.

This was some of the best pasta I've ever had!!! We ordered the vodka basil pasta, cacio e Pepe and they were so delicious, we couldn't get enough. I wish the portions were bigger because I definitely would've eaten a whole extra plate if I could! We also paired this with the 3 glass wine flight which was very nice, we asked the server to pick out the sweetest ones and they didn't disappoint! We had a hard time deciding on dessert bc everything looked so good, but the server helped us out and suggested the affogato which was SO yummy. I need to come back here and try more items! Also, the vibes were so fun and great music, what a fun ambiance when you're eating such yummy food

I wish I took better pictures. The food was so delicious we devoured it as soon as it got to the table. I love dinning at this location, the ambiance is casual, welcoming, and often playing fun music. Our server Darin, was very friendly and often checked in on our table. However, they do have a very strict 90 min seating policy. We had asked for the check when we finished our meal, which is when the manager came to our table and told us that they needed the table back. Make sure to order the Gem Salad as a starter and end with the soft serve yogurt- it's absolutely delicious!

The food was amazing here. Specifically loved the spagetti limone and gem salad! Would definitely come back here.

All you need to know is the spicy fusilli - don't think, just order it. It's savory, delicious and absolutely worth getting here. The Brooklyn Dodger pizza was also excellent and they also had some great meatballs. It's not a bad idea to order all that and share it around with a larger group. The pasta was definitely delicious and the sauce is something that absolutely rocks. It's one of those "I will order this all the time" kind of things and I'm definitely a huge fan. The ambiance of this place is really chill and casual. Keep in mind the volume here can get super loud and there are also many families that visit so kids will be part of that loud vibe. However, all this is fine if you want a great meal in a great family friendly environment.

Being in Brentwood means a Jon & Vinny's always consistent, perfectly executed one-size cheese pizza to-go. Hey, it was my turn to "make" dinner. Think thin, really thin, never soggy crust, totally able to support signature, savory marinara with a just-right-edge-to-edge spread of cheese for an iconic fold (Think Viggo Mortensen in 2018's "Green Book".). At pick-up I wasn't hungry. Decided to save the pie for dinner; share with hubby along with a DIY green salad. On the way home, couldn't stop eyeballing the box safely belted on the passenger seat (warmer on in case I/we couldn't wait). At home, as soon as I opened the box it was dinner NOW! We ate at 3PM. Hey, we're old early bird diners AND need immediate foodie gratification! Two skinny slices left for a 6PM snack, well maybe if we can wait that long... Thanks Jon & Vinny's for a delicious reprise, just as we expect it, enjoy it! Metered parking on San Vicente Avenue. Parking also in surrounding residential area with attention to permit restrictions and street sweeping days.

Came here on a weekday night with a reservation. The place was packed but we were seen and seated immediately. The waiter offered our water and menu quickly, and made great recommendations for drinks. We ended up sharing a the Cavatelli pasta as well as a large sausage pizza. The pasta was the stand out of the night- super soft, chewy and seasoned the perfection. The pizza was interesting as it had a pecorino drizzle that I thought was a nice finish but my partner didn't enjoy as much. Overall will be back for solid Italian food for a great value!

The corn agnolotti and the calamari are worth coming back for. I could have gone a tad less sweet for the agnolotti but it was still delish. The calamari crust is unique and a wonderful breading.

The pizza, pasta, and salad were good but not spectacular considering that it was on the pricier side. We also came for dinner and just opted for take out because there was no seating space. got the gem lettuce, spicy fusilli pasta, and mushroom pizza

Hands down one of my favorite places in LA! This was my third time there and I'm definitely going back. I'm a vegetarian and they have plenty of veggie options. This time we ordered: Ricotta and Orange Blossom Honey with Sesame Seeds Bruschetta- 4/5. The ciabatta was fresh (a little burnt this time, but that's usually never been the case). The honey drizzle is subtle but unmissable. The ricotta has a great texture. Spicy Fusili Vodka Basil Parmesan- 5/5. One of their most flavorful dishes. It's not really spicy, it's just right. Radiotori, pesto, pecorino- 5/5. I usually don't prefer pesto because of the 'leafy' taste but this was really well made. The balance between the pesto and the cheese was perfect. White lightning pizza- 4/5. The garlic flavor didn't come across. But overall a great dish. If you're a fan of mushroom, then the Super Shroom is worth a shot! Service is quick, their playlist is fun and isn't too distracting when you're trying to make conversation. The place gets very busy on Fridays so make reservations well in advance. It's usually less busy on weekend afternoons. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Some power outlets available.

Came here for dinner. Ate outside in their large patio area. Heat lamps were provided. The decor was lackluster. They really could have livened up the place with some plants. Garlic Bread - We added parmigiano. There was so much cheese it was insane. Usually I'm not one to complain about too much cheese, but it kinda just sat on top there. If they had thrown it in the oven for even just a second it would have been way better. I've gotten this app before at their Fairfax location and they executed this dish so much better. Shame. LA Woman - A little messy to eat with the burrata plopped on there but it tasted super fresh. The marinara could've benefited from more seasoning though. Brooklyn Dodger - By far the best thing we got that day. Packed with flavor over a crunchy crust. Everything I want in a pizza. Took them a little time to seat us even with having reservations. Their host stand at the front is very small with minimal room to stand so it was a bit cramped. When we got seated, our waiter was quiet and difficult to hear. Luckily the wine we got was pretty good and the food came out quickly. They seemed pretty strict about their 2 hour table policy. We went over about 15 min finishing up our bottle of wine and we were getting the vibe that they wanted to flip the table quickly. This location seems like it's cutting corners honestly. The Fairfax one is small, but better practices are in place.

The spicy fusilli is so good that I looked up the recipe and realized it's the same as Gigi Hadid's vodka pasta recipe. But Jon and Vinny's came first! Ordered some orange wine and had a great catching up with a friend in their outdoor seating area. Space heaters blasting.

Food is absolutely delicious but it gets packed and even if you have a reservation, you'll likely have to wait on a weekend night. But if you're willing to deal with all that, arguably the best upscale casual Italian place in the city. My husband and I are plant-based, and even getting everything without cheese, it's all still so good. Great, interesting natural and organic wine list too.

The Jon & Vinny's in Brentwood is a staple. The place appears small but has plenty of patio seating in the back! There's valet too, $10 behind the restaurant. The menu has a ton of options, and we ordered a ton to try. Honestly, was not disappointed with any of our picks. Our waitress was really helpful and fast. It can get kind of loud due to all the chatter but if anything it adds to the liveliness of the environment! We tried the: - Little Gem spicy Caesar Salad (on point!) - Shaved Zucchini Salad - some other salad with apples and persimmons - Little Nats Pizza - Ricotta Orange Blossom Honey - Spicy Fusilli Pasta - Spicy Vodka Pasta - Sarah and shiri's super shroom pizza - the Lola (kinda spicy) - ricotta ravioli - corn agnolotti with brown butter and sage - Cavatelli, fennel and sausage pasta - tiramisu (delish!) - warm strawberry bread pudding - double chocolate cake - and like 1 of every cookie

This is what I call a perfect meal! Jon and Vinny's is super cute and a great dinner spot. They have the best meatballs EVER! Super tender and the ricotta pairs perfectly with it. The garlic bread is amazing. A salad pizza may sound weird but this is one of my favorite pizzas. The salad has great flavor with the dressing, parmesan, tomatoes, and onion. The crust on the pizza is crispy, yet fluffy. It is super refreshing. Always have to finish off with dessert and the soft serve is SOO good. One of my go to places and I don't think it's overrated if you get the right things! The lemon pasta and chicken cutlet is also very good.

Too expensive for what it is and food is alqays delayed. In addition to that they automatically charge you 18% tip!! Avoid it!!!!

Great Food, Terrible Service The Little Gem salad -spicier than what I've had at their West Hollywood location. butter pasta- great meatball -delicious spicy fusilli was excellent However, our experience took a nosedive when we ordered the bolognese sauce with polenta. They brought the wrong dish, and the wait time for them to remake it was a painful 50 minutes. I expected a mouth-burning hot dish when they finally brought it over, but it was disappointingly LUKEWARM. Waiting 50 minutes for lukewarm polenta was a completely letdown. NEVER AGAIN!

Everything was amazing! We got 4 different pastas, garlic bread, the ricotta burrata and honey bread, meatballs, chocolate cake, Gem lettuce salad, peanut butter cookies, and soft serve ice cream! I drank the vanilla bean latte and love it as well. You literally cannot go wrong here. We ate outside which was great and service was excellent.

Typical LA spot! A little overhyped but I always get a good meal here. Gem lettuce salad, mozzarella sticks, and the spicy fusilli is my go to order when dining with a friend. If dining Fri-Sun nights, I would recommend making reservations. But, if you're just stopping by for a week day late lunch/early dinner, walk-ins are perfect imo.

My friends and I were craving Italian food, and Jon & Vinny's did not disappoint us! The food was served in decent portions. A huge shoutout to the corn agnolotti and brown sugar pasta because I was not expecting it to taste amazing. I'm looking forward to visit this place again when I visit LA in the future.

We met some friends who lives in Brentwood here for brunch on a cool, rainy day. Parking was a challenge since the meter didn't seem to want to take my credit card (perhaps becuase it was Pres Day), but I discovered after that they have parking in the back. Noted for next time! I had 2 hangry boys in tow and really needed a cup of coffee myself. Jon & Vinny to the rescue! Son #1 demolished a BLT, son #2 demolished a bacon pizza (yep, for brunch) and I ordered the soft eggs made with burrata (so delicious). We also ordered some banana bread for the table, which was so good. And of course...coffee! Food came out relatively fast and was so filling that I made it from 10am until 5:30pm dinner. My friend, the local, said this was one of their favorite brunch spots and I can see why!

Got the ricotta bread as an appetizer and this was hands down one of the YUMMIEST things that we ate! Afterwards we got the salad pizza and the spicy pasta which was recommended by the waiter. The salad pizza was just a Caesar salad on top of a cheese pizza which was a bit misleading because I thought it was going to be roasted vegetables. Would not recommend getting this again. But the spicy fusilli pasta was pretty good except the portion size was on the smaller side. Service was good and I like the interior of the restaurant and there's a good amount of parking in the plazas nearby.

One of the best Italian restaurants. Food is always delicious, never disappoints. Service is pretty good , only negative is the ambiance as it really does not have any. Decor is very basic.

Quality food for sure. Very solid vodka pasta and marg pizza. Was super crowded even late at night and service was okay. I liked the food, but have had pizza and pasta I prefer more at different restaurants. Cool vibe though and defs worth a try if you're in the area. Street parking can be tough depending on time of day.

First off, all the 1 to 3 star reviews because of the 18% service charge are ridiculous. I get it, they should tell you upfront, but this is an amazing restaurant with quality food. Yes, the portions are small, but it's not a 3 star place! My experience was great, fast service, amazing food, but it is on the pricey side (spent close to $200 with tax and an additional tip). Below is my review for each item I tried this time: 5/5 - Margarita Pizza: just literally amazing, it's simple, but flavorful and delicious, it has an amazing red sauce! Definitely my favorite pizza here, would highly recommend. 5/5 - Spicy Fusilli Pasta: Bold flavors, really good vodka sauce, a nice hint of spice (but not super spicy or anything close to that). 5/5 - Fettuccine Verdi Alfredo Pasta: you can only get this at the Brentwood location! It's so creamy, rich, and it has very subtle (yet wonderful) flavors. 5/5 - NY Cheesecake w/ Berry Compote: exactly what cheesecake should taste like, rich, fluffy, and very filling! 4/5 - Sarah & Shiri's Super Shroom Pizza: I love mushrooms, so I really enjoyed this dish and how packed with mushrooms it was, but they stole the show a bit and it lacked balance, it could use some more of their amazing red sauce. If you're only trying one pizza, I recommend the Margarita pizza.

Disappointing. Service was okay, waiter kind of short with us and seemed to be bothered when we asked for something. Only 1 of the 4 dishes we got was good (cacio e pepe). The ravioli was swimming in sauce, and the chicken parm was just okay. Wine by the glass selection was very limited and the wines offered were not very good. Vibe of restaurant was surprisingly stark and not comfortable at all. Suggestion - invest in padded seating and backing. Also we were rushed by staff to pay our bill and leave so they could seat new parties. There were numerous open tables and only saw 3 people waiting for a table at 8:15 pm so why the rush? Will never go back.

I came here for lunch with my manager since I won Rookie of the Year with my brokerage! Starting a new career is always frightening but the outcome has been amazing and my manager has shown great appreciation by taking me out for lunch to celebrate today. It was a special day. We chose this place since it was right by the office and the food is good. We ordered the meatballs, pasta dish, two pizzas which I forgot to take pics of I was so hungry lol! The service was very slow in the beginning and our waiter took a long time to serve us but Derek the manager stepped right in and switched it around. He made it into a great experience taking care of one of our entrees and showering us with dessert to go to make up for the lack of service. This is how you get a bad experience to turn into a very good one! We left very happy! Thank you!

Sooo yummy and honestly more reasonably priced than I thought it would be. We went on a Friday night, without a reservation, and were seated immediately on the back patio with a heat lamp. The food came out quickly and was delicious! The pasta was cooked perfectly and all of the sauces were crafted beautifully. I'll definitely be back for another date night! Get the tiramisu :)

A decade ago, we ate at the original Jon & Vinny's just after the restaurant opened. We liked it. Soon, Jon & Vinny's expanded to Brentwood nearby. We go occasionally because getting a table is tough. Last Friday, we got in late about 9:00 PM. As we entered, we saw a two top available in the back. The hostess told us it was reserved. Famished, we sat at the counter. There. I could rest my injured leg. We got treated to an awesome view of the kitchen activity. We quickly figured out our order. We started with the "Little Gem Salad." The lettuce crunched in our mouths with a spicy kick from the dressing. Our appetites were ignited! Our bacon pizza showed up -- super cheesy, lots of tomatoes, and an awesome smokey flavor from the bacon. Our last dish, Polenta with Bolognese sauce arrived. This one was not what we expected. My husband thought the polenta would be slices topped with sauce. Instead, the polenta was super creamy, and topped with meaty Bolognese sauce and Parmesan cheese. We were impressed that the restaurant was still buzzing with activity, and packed with customers late. Our waitress did her job well. The pesky 18% service fee appeared on our bill, but still we left her a tip. No one ever got seated at the reserved table.

We were a party of two that ordered the avocado bruschetta, the rosy, and spicy fusilli. I was not expecting much from the avocado bruschetta... but it was surprisingly really good! The bread was toasted well and dish was creamy with a light sharpness from the lemon. The rosy was also very delicious. My expectations were low because I believe "pizza is pizza" but this pizza changed my mind on that. The rosy is just tomato sauce with olive oil but it was very tasty. The tomato sauce had a nice sweetness and sharpness to it that I really enjoyed. The dough was cooked perfectly to have a nice crispness. The spicy fusilli was a good dish. It did not amaze me but it was very tasty nonetheless. The pasta was served al dente. The sauce was rich with a nice tartness to it. However, the portions are on the smaller side. The service was very kind and fast. They were active in making sure we were doing okay. The ambiance is nice. The restaurant has dim lighting that creates a relaxed atmosphere. There is plenty of seating inside.

I'm sad to say that I'm really disappointed in Jon & Vinny's. I was a complete fan of them in college a year ago but today I ordered Togo of the spicy fusilli pasta and received a half filled order of pasta. This pasta is already a smaller portion that typical Italian places so I was upset to have paid to receive such a small serving. Whenever I sit down in the restaurant, the portions are fuller and on bigger plates. This was unacceptable to me.

I came here with friends, we made a reservation at around 8 pm on a Sunday so we ended up being one of the last groups in the restaurant, which worked out great since we got a bunch of free cookies they hadn't sold! All the cookies were super good and it was nice to try all the options. It was most of our first time at jon and Vinny's and we all loved it! We got the white bronco pizza and local burrata to share. The burrata was good but the white bronco was absolutely amazing! I got the polenta with the bolognese which was absolutely amazing as well. The restaurant itself was very intimate, we were seated inside and loved the environment. All the staff were so so so nice and fun as well, we especially loved the sommelier who helped us pick out a wine to all of our tastes and price range. I look forward to coming back!

Very spacious compared to the BH location. There's outdoor seating as well with heat lamps. The spicy pasta is my go to at jon and vinnys! Plates are good to share! The reviews below are not wrong about the 18% automatic gratuity however, they didn't mention that below there is a list of suggested gratuity which was listed from 5%-20%. They don't tell you beforehand about the added gratuity but that shouldn't reflect the low stars because the food is amazing and service is not bad!

Always love coming here with guests! You can easily find metered parking on the street or valet out back too. If you don't have a reservation, I recommend arriving for an early dinner and you will definitely snag a seat! Don't leave without trying the spicy fusilli, or two or three!

One of my favorite places. Service is fast food is amazing inside is cool. They have an 18% cost of living charge which doesn't include the tip so be prepared for that. Pro Tip it stays packed so make a reservation

Really enjoyed this experience at Jon and Vinny's BW! Had a reservation at 8:15pm and we were seated right away indoors (as requested). I ordered more food than needed but that was ok! Truth is, I wanted to give this spot another chance. I had previously visited pre pandemic and honestly everything was just mid- good, not great. However, this time I really loved everything. Standouts were the meatballs and the Brooklyn Dodger pizza. We ended the dinner on a sweet note with cannolis and wedding cookies. Loved the cannolis! Will definitely be back soon.

Delicious pizza and pasta! We came on a Friday night and the restaurant was popping. We ordered two pizzas and the very popular vodka pasta. The pizza was perfectly crisp and crunchy and the pasta was creamy and savory. Everything was chef's kiss and we will definitely be returning. Our server was kind and recommended various options as it was our first time.

Title: Mixed Experience for a Birthday Celebration We visited Jon & Vinny's for a friend's birthday, and the highlight was undoubtedly the delicious food. The flavors were exquisite, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. However, the dining experience was marred by some notable issues. The tables are incredibly small, making it challenging to comfortably enjoy the feast. Unfortunately, the low stars are primarily attributed to the subpar service we encountered. There were numerous missing items, and the overall service left much to be desired. While the exceptional quality of the food almost compensated for the shortcomings, the service lapses were hard to overlook. Despite the tasty dishes, the overall experience fell short of our expectations for a special celebration.

Let's start with some positives. My husband had the spicy fusilli (which our friends highly recommended) and I had the rigatoni with broccoli. The fusilli was amazing, but the rigatoni was definitely on the bland side. There were parts that had really strong garlic and other that had none. A bit uneven. Didn't taste any red peppers as it said there were on the menu. We also had a bruschetta which was excellent. We also had the mozzarella sticks that were good, but way over priced for what it was. Almost $18. Portions were eh, but we hadn't eaten all day so probably partially our fault. When we first arrived, we came early for our reservation. We asked if possible we could be sat inside. The girl at the front helped make it happen, albeit not very friendly for the first person you meet (but not mean). There was another lady with dark (curly?) hair who was super sweet. She saw I had flowers and asked if we were celebrating (we were) and was just overall bubbly and kind. Give her a raise! Our waiter wasn't very attentive. I asked for a couple things and some took a while to get and one thing we just never even got, hah. At the end of our meal, we had dessert. I had tiramisu and a coffee and my husband had an affogato. Tiramisu was excellent and my husband loved his dessert as well. Sadly, the coffee was lukewarm and tasted bitter like it had been sitting in the same carafe all day. I loveeee coffee so this was definitely a disappointment. I asked for half and half and the waiter said they didn't have any... which I thought was weird if you serve coffee. He offered whole milk instead and I said that's fine, and then we never got it. So I drank my coffee black. On top of your bill, there is an 18% service charge. I don't mind these if they give you the option not to tip, but the bill had tip suggestions. For the mediocre service, I wasn't thrilled about this. We tipped about 10%. Overall, for the service, what we got and the final bill amount with the service charge, I'm not sure this place is worth it. Maybe it was an off night, but we happened to come here on that off night for the first time and now don't have a great impression of Jon & Vinny's. Bummer, since it was my birthday! Oh well. ‍

So freaking good. Got the spaghetti limone & some cookies. Would go again and again - service was fair

Came to visit LA with wifey. She wants to try it, heard good things about this spot. Pasta is decent but definitely on the pricier side considering it was just pasta noodles, vodka and pesto sauce. Unbeknownst to me, they bill 18% service charge on tops of the tip section, it irritates me the most since nowhere in their menus stated doing so... I wont be back..

Table of 6 sat outside. More casual outside on the picnic benches but still a cute vibe. Staff were friendly and the sommelier was helpful in picking out our wine. We ordered: Gem Salad, Mozzarella Sticks, vodka Sauce pasta and the Spaghetti Zucchini olive oil pasta, White Lightening and Margherita Pizzas. All delicious other and flavorful other than the Spaghetti Zucchini. It was bland and could use some cheese, pepper, or spice. 4 stars because I thought pasta portions were small for the cost and took a very long time for our drinks to arrive after we ordered.

Much better than what its currently reviewed as. People complaining about portion sizes are completely wrong. They are just right! Prices reflect the portions properly and you can get away with ordering a number of dishes, drinks and desert for under $100 and come away with a happy tummy. Can easily accommodate three people sharing with each other for this price. This is a big win for those who frequently like to eat out. For the amount of food/drinks we ordered we would typically expect to pay around $120-$140. The decor is very nice, food is very good, staff is attentive for the most part (they right the wrongs and that's what's important), music a bit loud, but I get what they are going for and it hits right. If you embrace what they are giving you, you'll be very happy. Definitely plan on putting this place in the regular rotation. Can't wait to come back!

10/10 customer service, if they make a mistake it gets rectified plus more. The food is average Italian food with a hip environment.
