"This minimalist gem in Melrose Hill keeps Italian cooking to its barest simplicity, operating like the hip osteria that it is nestled into one of Los Angeles’s coolest neighborhoods. Chef Evan Algorri, previously of Lupa, Marea, and Bouley, turns out beautiful plates of rigatoni gricia with guanciale and onion soubise, a pork ribeye swimming in a red sauce and topped with shaved fennel, and scampi with spicy n’duja. The wine list features bottles and glasses with minimal intervention. In a city full of Italian restaurants, it’s hard to think of a better place to impress fashionable types." - Matthew Kang, Eater Staff
