E Baldi

My Compliments to the Chef The food was excellent — truly impressive by European standards. The Dover sole and the spaghetti pomodoro were my absolute favorites; both dishes were spot on. Service was super fast and attentive The ambiance on the other hand was a disappointment While the vibe was casual and cozy, it didn’t quite match the quality of the food or the price point. They need a serious facelift on the decor. But I’ll definitely be going back.

Everything was absolutely delicious! Eduardo, the owner, is always warm and welcoming—his hospitality makes every visit feel special. The timing and presentation of each dish were impeccable, and our server was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the meal. We had a wonderful experience—our kids enjoyed it so much that they’re already asking when we can come back! Every detail impressed us, from start to finish…we definitely will be back for more. though I’m pretty sure I gained five pounds! We’ll definitely be recommending this gem to friends and family. 10/10 Must Have: Fried Shitake Mushrooms, Pecorino Tartufato Beef Meat Balls, Fresh Pomodoro Sauce Grilled Mediterranean Langostine Sweet Corn Agnolotti Lamb chop

I visited this restaurant for the second time and fell in love with its incredibly delicious cuisine. pasta with porcini mushrooms, octopus carpaccio is simply incredible. everything we ordered was the best. atmosphere as in family Italian restaurants. the service was good but the assistant waiters brought us the wrong dishes. in general, I am very satisfied, I will definitely come back every time I visit your restaurant I am pleasantly impressed with the food but every time we have problems with the service. please take care of your staff and the service of a restaurant of this level should be much higher, or we will stop coming to you I took two stars from you for your service. we have visited your restaurant 5 times and every time we have had problems with the service

The chef here is next level! You could tell everything we ordered was made with passion and precision. I've actually never been to a fine Italian restaurant where I liked every single course - and we had 6! From the super thin-crust pizza, soup, salad, sashimi, ravioli, dover sole, spinach and chocolate crepes. Oh - and the wine list is incredible. It was packed with a few recognizable faces, as well. But no one bothered them. Too busy enjoying the meal, I guess. Will definitely be back.

One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve eaten at, in the heart of Beverly Hills. We started by sharing a plate of meatballs as an appetizer (as we saw them on every table), and it was worth it! The tomato sauce was delicious and fresh. The meatballs melted in my mouth. And the fresh bread (offered) was a perfect addition to clean the plate from the tomato sauce! I had the Lobster Ravioli, which was very fine and delicate. The pasta tasted fresh, and the lobster with spicy tomato sauce was a lovely pairing. It was a little light on the portion (luckily, we got the bread and could ask for more). Overall, it is a delicious entrée. My friend had the penne with langoustine but wasn’t overly impressed. The penne was hard, and the langoustine didn’t seem seasoned. The sauce was very liquid, and there was too much of it. For about $45 for each of our pasta dishes, it felt a bit much. I had the Mille Foglie for dessert, and my friend had the tiramisu. They were $18 each, which is a bit much for dessert, but they were both delicious. The service was excellent. The servers were very attentive and welcoming. The location is small but beautiful. We decided to eat outside as the weather was nice enough. It’s nicely secluded/hidden from the main street, which adds privacy. All in all, we paid $110 each for a two-course meal and a half (since we shared the appetizer). We had a bottle of sparkling water and no alcohol. It's a bit pricey but quite typical for LA and especially for Beverly Hills and so close to Rodeo Drive. I had a lovely experience and would definitely eat there again!

As a devoted foodie, I can honestly say I haven’t found an Italian restaurant in LA that serves fresher, more authentic, and consistently mouth-watering Tuscan cuisine than e. baldi. (And yes, I’ve sampled all the overly-hyped newcomers.) From the pizzas and pastas to the soups, salads, fish, and desserts, e. baldi is our go-to spot for both lunch and dinner. The vibrant atmosphere is only enhanced by the eclectic mix of actors and musicians who frequent the place. Where else can you enjoy a delicious meal while sitting next to Al Pacino one day and J. Lo the next? It’s truly a one-of-a-kind dining experience!

Fine dining at its finest. Compliments to the chef , everything is made with love and had such great taste. I had the meatballs to start , melted in your mouth and made to a perfection. The tomato sauce so light and flavorful. Then I had the sweet corn agnolotti (mascarpone) with the truffle butter. You have to do the scarpetta with the bread. Of course the bread is fresh and they give you a classic and whole grain bread in each basket. And to conclude the small meal, I had a nice chocolate mousse. Homemade whip cream and fluffiness of the chocolate mixed with the raspberry jam at the bottom. Indescribable. 10 out of 5! I could eat everything on the menu ! Service is excellent and the waiters are great characters as well.

Food was yummy. Our main server was pretentious, dismissive, and uninterested in us; as if we were inconveniencing him by being there. The kind gentlemen who brought our food to the table, however, were hardworking and so lovely. Will never go back

Consistently superior to every Italian restaurant in LA (dare I say even Giorgio Baldi). Yes, the dinner prices could be considered high but every bite is worth the mouth-watering experience. You'd literally need to fly to Italy to have an equivalent meal. And everyone I've ever brought here has been blown away. Go for lunch or dinner! It will not disappoint. Current faves: Truffle pizza, chocolate crepes (Crespelle Nocciolate), ravioli con la coda, sautéed spinach, passato of broccoli and leek soup.

E baldi is an amazing location, they have a great staff and amazing food. The location is smaller than other locations in the area but the dishes here are packed with flavor. My favorite was a dish recommended by my friend and i'm glad i tried it. The sweet corn agnolotti. Different in a good way. Restaurant is very clean and the wait staff is friendly. My only complaint is the schedule of operating hours. If they were open for lunch i'd be here everyday lol

Based on my experiences dining with Chef Edoardo during his time at Giorgio Baldi I would recommend E Baldi Ristorante a thousand times over! I dined with him for over 20 years, and his cooking is out of this world. The mushroom crepes he makes are to die for! BUT, I have not yet visited E. Baldi, so I cannot attest to the excellence of its service and ambience (although I have no doubt). I will be dining there in the upcoming weeks and will return to yelp to complete my review.

The corn agnolotti was amazing. One of the best pastas I have tried. I do think it's overpriced though. $46 for a pasta is pretty crazy. Everything beyond that one pasta is okay. The chocolate crepe dessert is good but can be made at home

To live & die by the sweet corn agnolotti pasta at E Baldi. One of the most jaw dropping dishes. Vibe of the people in this restaurant is pretty trash though, I tend to get some sour stares from from a certain group of people everytime I'm here. But hey. Pasta is delicious. Overpriced, but yummy.

This place has the best pasta I have ever eaten, the most flavorful Dover sole I've ever had, and the best tiramisu and focaccia as well. The overall best Italian restaurant that I have been to in Los Angeles. It deserves five stars and is by far the finest Italian standout place not only in Beverly Hills, but anywhere this side of Italy. Plus the waitstaff are real genuine Italians!

Such a nice restaurant with a comfortable outdoor patio and intimate interior. Food is really fresh and ingredients are thoughtfully put together for amazing dishes, like the "famous" chicken salad with celery and greens and fresh shredded chicken, lightly dressed was perfect and refreshing. The halibut was so fresh and flavorful The appetizer of fried calamari and shrimp was good even the next day!! And service was impeccable. A must when you're visiting LA/ Beverly Hills. A nice place to relax and enjoy a meal after a day of shopping or work!

Excellent food, considering the prices at other high priced restaurants at least the food here is worth the prices. Uncomfortable chairs is my only gripe. We will be happy to go again after trying some of the newer restaurants that aren't even close to having good food.

no, not good. slow service, tables too close together, hostess was lame. two thumbs down

Last night we researched E Baldi's menu. It seemed to be just about right because my gf was going to buy my birthday dinner for me. We made reservations for 7.00 pm tonight (Saturday Oct 5) only to discover that the prices on the restaurant's menu was over double the price shown on their website. We spoke to the waiter who apologized by saying that the owner/chef knows about the discrepancy but will nor change the website. The website menu is 4 years old. I would not allow my girlfriend pay such exorbitant prices, even though the ambiance was great. The website menu states Dover Sole at $38.00 where in fact it's $64.00 at the restaurant. We walked out and chose another restaurant close by. The hostess and waiter were very apologetic but said the owner/chef will not update the website. Shame, we were looking forward to eating there.

This was awesome! I had the NY Steak and we had several appetizers. Not cheep, but is in Beverly Hills! We had a great bottle of wine; none of us could pronounce the name! Would eat here again!

Very mixed feelings about this restaurant, which itself is an uncomfortable mix of classic Italian almost to the point of pretentiousness with some California fusion cuisine, and of upscale aspirations with casually dressed locals seated at tables a bit too close together. The positives: some of the food is truly delicious, and the wait staff were mostly polite and friendly. The hearts of palm "fettuccine" were a delight: not a pasta at all, but hearts of palm sliced into pasta-like ribbons and dressed in a light lemon sauce. The pasta dishes are very good, a bit small for a main course but good for a second course or for sharing. Negatives: some of these could be overlooked if not for the absurdly high prices ($28 for a starter salad; $41 for a hamachi crudo starter; $53 for seared salmon; very overpriced wine list, etc). Many of the portions were small. One member of our party had the smallest branzino we'd ever seen ($53); we joked that the other half of the fish was missing. The menu is an odd mix of very classic Italian with California fusion, or Italian-Asian and Italian-Mexican fusion. The Caesar salad is made with kale (I've had a lot of bad takes on Caesar salads recently so this was a sore point). Despite having yuzu in their fusion dishes, they have no limes because...limes aren't used in Italian food. They don't have a full liquor license, only wine and two Italian beers (and no non-alcoholic beers). Our drink orders, in fact, were met with a list of things they don't have. I'd be willing to buy this all as a purist rendition of classic Italian cuisine were it not for the very non-Italian shiitake, tomatillos, jalapeños, and yuzu scattered about the menu. Also I felt rather overdressed in business casual. As others have noted, obvious locals were hanging out in T-shirts, whereas the prices, the uniformed wait staff, and the decor would all suggest a bit more formality. I'm not sure exactly what this restaurant's market is. I could get better Italian food for half the price in Westwood or WeHo. I could get better contemporary fusion cuisine all over, and with a full bar. Several reviews complain about parking. There is an inexpensive parking garage one block up on Canon.

Love this place. Prime location. Amazing food great staff and fast service. Love there langostine and pizza and also there corn pasta is delicious. Also there grilled T bone is a must try. In the heart of Beverly Hills, you can go wrong for a date night. Nice and sexy atmopshere for date.

Very good!! Really delicious Especially love the two desserts The ambience is more like a family style, cozy, perfect for dating Service are good as well

A really delicious dinner, although not as good as the original location in northwest Santa Monica near the PCH. That location being Giorgio Baldi. This is the Beverly Hills and smaller location. Tonight was a very tasty dinner, although for the price I would recommend going to their original location in Santa Monica. Tonight I started with the Beef Carpaccio, which was very good, although not as good as the other location. For my entrée, I chose the Veal Tortellini in Veal Broth, and it was actually very good, albeit a small portion. The Positives: the food quality and the taste are top-notch. They also have a lot of great options on the menu and our server, as well as rest of the staff we encountered, we're all very polite. I also really like the atmosphere of this place, it's classy and casual at the same time. The Negatives: it is overly pricey, I am sure due to the cost of the rent being in this part of Beverly Hills. Each of the dishes could definitely be less expensive, also the portion sizes are not very large. The Beef Carpaccio @ Giorgio Baldi is one of the best I have ever had, but this version at e Baldi wasn't nearly as delicious. The restaurant is also very small on the inside, so the tables are very close together. Conversations between tables easily overlap and moving around in the restaurant feels kind of like you're inside an airplane. Also, there is a 10% service charge on top of all bills due to it being located in Beverly Hills, which is definitely a negative. Finally parking in this area is not the easiest. We were able to find metered parking a block away, but if that's not possible your options will be valet parking for $12 or a paid lot close by. Overall a nice dinner, but I would recommend going to their original location instead.

Best italian food in city!!!! The service is impeccable! Look forward to a very special evening!!

absolutely the worst restaurant i have been to the customer service is horrible. pasta taste like water. save your time ***do not visit**** disgusting go to giorgio baldi not here the manager instead of asking me why i wasnt please with the past charged me for a plate i only had **one**literal piece of penne pasta. no sauce. no flavor treated horrible!!!!!!

Terrific food and service. Expensive but great for a special event. Been there for years and still operate at excellence. Small and quaint ambiance.

We arrived for dinner at eBaldi at 6:30. The waiter didn't take our order for one hour. At 9:00 we still hadn't received our food. Everyone in the restaurant was served but us. Our waiter was nice but helpless. It was so infuriating as we asked over and over where our food was and he kept saying it's coming right out. We finally got our food at 9:30 and one of the entrees was wrong. They were sort of apologetic but not really. We'll never go back mostly because they didn't seem to care about our inconvenience one bit.

delicious, cant wait to go back. The thinly sliced hearts of palm is refreshing and the perfect amount to share. A favorite is the polenta with mushrooms. And every pasta is amazing. This is a great place to have a birthday even for take out, but the wine is also excellent. oh gosh now I am hungry just thinking about it.

Stopped by E Baldi in Beverly Hills many times, but my most memorable visit was treating my Mom for her birthday in 2020, just before the world paused for COVID. That evening was special, and the food? It never misses. Every bite transports me straight to Italy. If you're an Italian food lover, trust me, this place is a must-visit. So many cherished memories wrapped up in the flavors of this gem. https://loanlightyears.com/

Just recently moved to Beverly Hills from Paris: these are my reviews on top suggested restaurants! Loved E Baldi, went for lunch- pizza and salad were good, light, clean ingredients. Ambiance was great- what you want it to be- can be a great date, friends lunch, business meeting, fancy or casual. Sweet server. Will def be going back!

This place exceeded my expectations- I wouldn't want to go anywhere else for Italian. Great hospitality, servers worked very efficiently & food was authentic and tasty! What I ordered: *Farmers market heirloom tomatoes, burrata, micro basil, "Paris Noir," balsamico 5/5 *Roberta's all beef meatballs, fresh tomato sauce 5/5 *Puna Gardens fresh heart of palm fettuccine in lemon sauce 10/5!!!! Unbelievably good *Ravioli con la coda" filled with green chard and ricotta in melted butter and Parmigiano 4/5 *Sweet corn agnolotti, mascarpone, truffle butter 10/5 A MUST ORDER! *Grilled Mediterranean langoustine 10/5 AMAZING *Pan fried Dover sole al limone 4/5 *Grilled lamb chops, sauteed radicchio 5/5

We are a big fan of georgio Baldi in Santa Monica so naturally we want to try this place. Middle of Beverly Hills , good for people watching. Menu slightly different than GB. We had dorade risotto which was surprisingly good and butter nut squash ravioli was definitely reminds of GB. I had octopus Camacho, portion is pretty big, recommend sharing. I had clam linguine which had a lot of clam and it was nice because they are out of shells. Pasta cooked Al Dante, just perfect and taste was simple but memorable. My BF had branzino which was out of this world. Highly recommend.

Was walking around Beverly Hills and popped in to ask if the Margherita pizza was onion garlic free. Was happy to hear it was onion garlic free (for my dietary restrictions) so went in for dinner. Definitely a fancy ambience so it is pricier. The food was alright - the pizza was a very thin crust and wish the sauce extended more into the crusts. The green beans were a nice side to have. Overall mediocre but glad I was able to go in and try something.

I have been comming here for years and the food and service never disappoint. Hands down the best Italian restaurant in LA with the highest quality ingredients. The Dover sole is one of the best dishes I have ever had. Everything is homemade and made with care. I recommend this restaurant to everyone I know.

Great food, service and ambiance...they have it all. I have found E Baldi to be consistently impressive!

I love this restaurant. Everything is amazing the food and service is superior. The chef is exceptional with one of the best menus I entrees I have ever tasted. Highly recommended

The food is good (not great but ok). The staff aren't that welcoming. Also, this place is closed most of the time during the week. Portions are small and their seating area is just too jammed packed.

I NEVER write reviews, but this experience was so out of the ordinary, especially in what is supposed to be a high-end restaurant, that I wanted to warn prospective customers. Our dinner reservation was at 6:30 (we arrived on time), and we were not served our entrees until 9:15, almost THREE hours later. Perhaps it should have been a warning sign that our drinks order was not taken until 30 minutes in. Our dinner order was taken about an hour in, and arrived at about 1.5 hours in. We had a lovely waiter who felt terrible, but he was not able to help us, and we were offered NOTHING in the interim until about 2 hours in, when we were offered a free glass of wine. We were about to get up and leave when our entrees finally arrived, and one of the dishes was not what was ordered (we ate it anyway, as we did not have another 3 hours to spare). And the food was, at best, fine - certainly not worth the long wait. At the end of the day they did not charge us for the appetizers, but the right thing to do would have been not to charge us at all, especially as all the tables around us (including people who arrived after us), were being served before we were. Clearly something went wrong with the expediting in the kitchen, but the chef/owner was completely indifferent to the problem and in no rush to fix it, and not apologetic, which is really the thing I found most offensive. If we had at least gotten an apology, I would not be writing this, but it was so clear that the chef/owner simply did not care (we could see our waiter talking to him from our table). I have been fortunate to have eaten in some of the best restaurants in the world, and in many high-end restaurants in Los Angeles, and I have never had an experience remotely like this. Sure, once in a rare while things go wrong, but it's what the restaurant does to solve the problem that makes the difference, and this was an epic FAIL.

Happy at E Baldi, i enjoyed the food much better that the one in Santa Monica. More authentic and quality, less chi chi. will definitely be back to enjoy that great menu thank you

Very good one food excellent place too small I go again little pricey but OK for BH you see good crowd.

Very unfriendly to customers. They have a wine policy where you cannot bring any wine, even with, what used to be, their high corkage. In addition, I had a reservation for 3 people last night indoors which they did not honor and tried to seat us outdoors. I finally left with my guests very upset and will never return.

We had a company dinner in private room. Food was delicious, but portions are so tiny, it wasn't enough. Deep fried mushrooms are the best

if you put spaghetti O sauce in front of me along with the pasta sauce from this restaurant i wouldn't be able to tell the difference with a gun to my head

Went to E Baldi Wednesday night for Valentine's Day. We had a 6:15 reservation. The place was packed we had a nice table but very cramped. The waiter was very nice but they all seemed to be in a hurry to serve the food and get you out for the next table. We had very good food. The place is expensive but most annoying was we asked for balsamic vinegar and they charged us for it and it was in a tiny cup. Never been charge for vinegar before. Just a few weeks ago we had dinner at Georgio Baldi and it was nicer. Also I had called that it was my wife's birthday and they didn't even acknowledge it. At Georgio Baldi they made a nice desert for her. If we're going to spend that kind of money we would prefer to go to Georgio Baldi.

The portions are small, but the food is really good. We usually come here for the fish and truffles with pasta. The service is on par and the staff are attentive. It is on the pricey end being in BH.

Pretty tasty food and wine, service was a bit slow. I wouldn't go back if I was paying for the dinner lol

E Baldi Ristorante on Canon Drive is an Italian restaurant that offers privacy for diners with its tall bushy green hedges. There are over a dozen Italian restaurants within the Beverly Hills triangle. Each restaurant has its claim of fame and the tall green hedges for privacy is one of the attractive features. My usual Italian restaurant and fav is across the street, adjacent to this restaurant, but it gets so crowded and I don't have the time, patience or inclination to wait. E Baldi has been at this location for over a dozen years. Its sister location in the Pacific Palisades is where I frequent when in that area, but also a paparazzi bunker for celebrities sightings. The menu is sufficient and offers excellent selections for every dietary preference. The restaurant offers homemade organic pasta but is made elsewhere, not here. I've had the pasta many times and it's been a hit and miss. Hoping this time my odds would improve...but instead ordered the one of the featured speciality: farmers Market heirloom tomatoes, fresh burrata, micro basil sprigs and drizzled in the rich balsamic vinaigrette from Modena....simple but superbly created, delish. Initially served with the basket of bread and diced tomatoes, it seemed almost redundant to order this salad. But after tasting, your taste buds will differentiate between the regular and heirloom tomatoes. The burrata is so fresh, it's like butter with subtle creamy goodness. This salad and bread satisfied my hunger for a bit. The hostess, waiter and servers were cordial, accommodating and nice. The waiter slightly resembled a young Marlon Brando with longish locks, was professional and had a pleasant demeanor. Service was efficient and prompt. Restaurant is small inside and seating outdoor behind the green hedges is preferable. With across the street views of Alo Yoga, Xian and next to Mulberry pizza and ale Mervetty to the right...all places I pop into.

Went there a week a go for lunch with Friends. We ordered : 1. Arthichoke and fennel salad : I kinda disappointed with this salad because it's not as good as I imagined.. I love artichoke but the taste in this salad not so amusing, plus it's so expensive and small .. not worth it at all 2. Beef meatballs: I'm so glad I could find pure BEEF meatballs Italian style because most Italian resto added pork in their meatballs and I don't eat pork and the taste is GOOD only it's too small for that price. 3. Grilled prawns / Mediterranean langostiine in my opinion, the best grilled prawn.. so good, sweet and juicy .. I guess this is my fav from all the food I ordered. 4. Corn Agnolotti: my friends really love it but I'm not a fan of ravioli so it's decent in my opinion. 5. Pizza tartuffo : it's so so .. not too special For the drink I ordered iced coffee with milk .. I might going back to this place but only for the shrimp and maybe a meatballs .. next time going to try for their pasta.

My gf and had dinner here after shopping in BH. They took us as walk ins which was great for last minute and no reservations. They have valet here next to the resto. We had hamachi special, pizza and pasta parpadelle and ended the night with dessert. It was delish. Will be back here again. Trust!

Simple Italian food. Way over priced. I had great expectation and was disappointed. Food was not seasoned. no ambience.

Used to love it here, but had a disappointing experience last night. I never write bad reviews, but let's talk about the meatballs... a $30 order of meatballs comes with 3 seemingly off the kids menu. Do they expect me to spend $60 on an appetizer just so everyone can have 1? Not cool. Make an order of meatballs 4. Please and thank you.

I decided to come to this place for that first time with some friends. The food is absolutely amazing. It is probably the best Italian food in Los Angeles. It is very authentic and very fresh and taste amazing. The branzino practically melts in your mouth like butter. PS Hilary Duff was sitting right next to me.

Talk about rip off artists!! It was 5 of us and we all wanted to do get pasta. I mean that's why you go to an Italian restaurant. But we were immediately shut down by the server saying that we can't order more than 3 pasta dishes because the kitchen is busy! The kitchen is busy? Do they not know how the restaurant business works? You know why they do that? It's to make you order beef, seafood or chicken dishes that are pricey. Another thing is that you'd have to order everything together. Another way of ripping you off because they don't want you to get full after appetizers and not order enough entree. The staff is very entitled and rude. I will not go back!

This spot not only has delicious food with outdoor patio dining but the service is a class act. Everyone including the hostess is always ready to cater to their up scale clientele. I had the most delicious mushroom and cheese appetizer before the main entree of pasta with mushrooms. It was a mushroom craving day for me. My friend ordered the salmon which he said was so delicious and tender. This is the spot to be to eat a great meal and people watch in Beverly Hills. Also great for dog watching! It felt like a doggie fashion show with their elaborate owners! There is free 2 hour parking a block away on Canon across from the Porta Via restaurant in case you can't find a meter.

Overall E Baldi was a great experience. There was a number of gluten free options available on the main menu, all pasta could be gluten free. Only downside to this place is they don't have any drinks other than wine.

My favorite Italian place ! Octopus carpaccio and the best agnolotti in LA! Everything is excellent . I never ever eaten bad food in ebaldi. I go here once a week. I wish they have liquor too but I heard it's coming soon . LA classic , must try if you visiting LA

Was a very enjoyable dinner. Place was so crowded and it is small. Food was terrific. Even the bread was terrific. We had salmon, barramundi and lamb chops. Spinach and potatoes with the meals. We all split the flourless chocolate cake with vanilla and chocolate ice cream; delicious. Would definitely go back. About a $100 a person.
