"Did someone say meatballs? This cute and modern establishment is a fresh take on traditional Italian eatery. The menu offers choosing your own "balls" which means the type of meatball, sauce, and pasta that you'd like your custom Italian meal to be. They also serve sliders, salads, wings, and more - so needless to say, you've got options. It is family owned, so you do feel the history, friendly service, and that the owners truly love what they do." - Grace Duong

a cute location in Westwood! i got the spaghetti with tofu meatballs and arabiatta; the sauce tasted more like jarred marinara which was slightly disappointing, but the pasta was perfect. the tofu meatball was AMAZING! it was crispy and filled w tofu spinach and almonds. the pasta portion was generous and filling, but also expected for 24 dollars. the garlic and cheese bread was the lowest point of the meal, it seemed like it was microwave instead of baked since the cheese wasn’t properly melted/broiled and the bread wasn’t crispy. the sauce it came with was delicious, a much better tomato sauce then the pasta. the highlight of the meal was truly the rosemary focaccia: deliciously flavored and perfectly soft and crispy. the first plate was complimentary, and it was exceptionally good that i had to pay for another plate! the service was also super nice! the three star review implies that i won’t be returning, but the review is only due to the parts of the meal that were honestly disappointing. however, i definitely do want to return for more of the tofu meatballs and focaccia; perhaps next time a sandwich or a different sauce. they clearly know how to cook well, but some of the dishes need more work.

Food was so good! I got the tomato arugula salad with buratta on the side - was feeling a little carsick so didn't end up getting the meatballs unfortunately but I wish I had because all of my friend's foods looked so good. The bread and apps (we got brussels and a couple other things) were really good too! Had a mix up where my vegan friend was accidentally served a meatball but when we notified our server they got it corrected and brought out a whole new dish right away

Such a cute place in Westwood. I also love their eggplant meatballs, even though I never go for a vegan option because I need my protein.

A hidden jam of Westwood Village. Meatball pasta selection is super comforting. You get to select the type of meatball, pasta, sauce and extra topping. Spaghetti is my favorite, and arrabbiata sauce is pleasantly spicy. The staffs are super friendly, especially to kids. They do have kids menu as well. Highly recommend the place.

The place was cozy, clean and well-kept. The customer service was outstanging. As first-time customers, we were thoughtfully guided to ensure we experienced their specialties to the fullest. As a result, the amount of food that we ordered was just perfect for us and we enjoyed the ideal combination of sauces and pastas they offer. Everything was very good.

As a 1st timer in Los Angeles Westwood neighborhood, this place was for certain a great spot. Obviously don’t miss ordering their signature dish, Meatballs! With Creamy Tomato sauce, it was so good 😊

The 3 stars are because a feel duped. Their menu prices on Google are much lower than reality. On their site it's $14.50 for a meatball sandwich, when I look at the menu it's $24. The sandwich was good but not worth $24. The butternut squash ravioli was excellent. The ceasar salad was perfectly dressed. Service was attentive. I can't get over the price disparity and feel tricked. I won't be back.

The House of Meatballs is a long-standing Italian restaurant nestled in Westwood. Right next to UCLA, it's a destination and stop for college students and those who work in the medical field that are employed close by. The area is intimate. Not too large. The right size for a nice get-together or cozy date. Even a business meeting if you si desire. The pastas run a specific style. Choose your meatball, your sauce, and the style of noodles. It's as simple as that. The eggplant meatball is really delicious, too. The location sits right next to the whole foods market, so it's not too hard to miss. Great for lunches or to eat when you have to go to the doctor and you have to stay for a while.
