"A neighborhood favorite in Silver Lake, known for its accessible yet ambitious dining experience." - Eater Staff
"Alimento’s Zach Pollack had built his first-ever Italian restaurant into a beloved neighborhood destination but closed it ahead of a soon-to-open Westside spot closer to where he lives." - Matthew Kang
"Movie Pairing:The Silence Of The Lambs (Netflix) “I suspect even Hannibal Lecter would love Alimento’s chicken liver crostone, even if it doesn’t come with fava beans. It’s one of my favorite starters in the city, served on house-baked bread with a sweet, vinegar-y black plum mostarda. And while they might not have a Chianti on their excellent wine list - sorry again, Dr. Lecter - their aglianico is a great substitute. Order some radiatori with braised pork sugo and a chicken Milanese sandwich while you’re at it, to fortify yourself for the endless debates about whether or not this is actually a horror movie.” - Brett Keating Watch the trailer." - brant cox, kat hong, brett keating, james montgomery
"Ideally, taking yourself out for dinner should require minimal effort, which means not spending precious mental energy choosing between 15 different shapes of noodles. Alimento’s short and sweet list of housemade pasta is exactly what you need in that case—their saucy radiatori with braised pork sugo is an easy go-to for nights when you just want to zone over some warm carbs. This low-key neighborhood spot also gets pretty dark once the sun sets, meaning you can easily blend into the background at one of the corner tables or sit at the kitchen-facing bar for some added anonymity." - jess basser sanders, nikko duren, sylvio martins
"Located in the most Silver Lake-y area of Silver Lake, Alimento is an absolutely fantastic Italian restaurant, and a spot you file away for date nights you don’t want to screw up. You’re going to spend some money here, but its neighborhoody feel keeps it from getting uptight. And you’re trying to show your best self here - being relaxed is important." - jess basser sanders, amy clark, brant cox
