"If you speak Italian, Antico Nuovo literally means "new old," which somehow makes perfect sense for this rustic-but-refined Italian spot on the Larchmont-Koreatown border, where you’ll enjoy views of a warm open kitchen, bread being pulled from the oven, and cuts of beef searing on a wood grill.Antico makes the best pasta in LA, and yet, the pasta might not even be the best thing on the menu. That award could go to the towering focaccia, juicy pork ribs, or pistachio ice cream we’d wait in a 45-minute line to eat. This place isn't the newest or most nostalgic or most glamorous Italian restaurant in town, but it is the best." - Team Infatuation
