Fire My Pasta

Place was cool and relaxing. The outdoor area was spacious and warm during the cold night. I ordered the pizza with anchovies and chilli flakes, and it wasn't as salty as I'd thought! Our server was also very attentive. Place was a bit empty tho, so no wait needed for seating!

Perfect for an intimate date or dinner with friends or even eating alone! Some of the best Italian food in the area — the pasta and pizza are fresh and delicious! I always get the bolognese and my boyfriend loves the seafood pasta! The Stromboli is also so tasty and the pizza is a delicious thin crust with fresh tomato sauce and generous helping of cheese! The service is super warm and friendly! Highly recommend!

I ordered in from here and it was very good! If you are looking for solid Italian food order from here! It’s much better than ugo in Culver City for classic Italian food in my opinion. We even got a tuna tartare that was really good! The veggie calzone was filling and had so many veggies (which I like) and the creamy tomato pasta was delicious! Definitely recommend this place!

One of the best Italian spots in this area. I'm surprised there are not many reviews. Our server, Francisco, was spectacular. The service here is 15/10! The complimentary bread and olive oil dipping sauce is unlike any other place. It was the most fresh, unique free bread we ever had. You need to try it! Now, the pasta! Sooo delicious and perfectly seasoned. I will be back for more. I highly recommend trying their carbonara. The pizza was also perfect. The dough here is light, crispy and fluffy. Come here for authentic, fresh Italian food. This restaurant deserves my business and I will definitely be back for more :)

Oof. First and last time, unfortunately. I placed an order earlier in the day for pickup on my way home. I had been meaning to try this place for some time. Despite placing the order well in advance, and despite the fact that the restaurant was nearly empty at 7 pm on a Friday night, my order was not ready when I arrived at the time to pick it up, and I waited over 10 minutes for it in my sweaty gym clothes. The server seemed to be unable to find my order initially, and I somewhat suspected that they hadn't even started cooking it before I arrived. They were also playing quite loud pop music (I recall Rihanna), which seemed totally counter to the vibe of the menu, which seemed more traditional Italian. The loud music combined with the relative aloofness of the bartender and the fact that I had to remind her to check for the food when I was sitting right in front of her were quite off-putting. If the food was stellar, I could overlook these things, but that wasn't the case. I ordered a pepperoni pizza and added mushrooms, the braised short rib linguini, and fettuccine Alfredo with added chicken. There is only one size of pizza to choose from, and it was tiny. I'd almost say personal size. So small there were only 6 slices. The crust was fine but the pizza was overall very bland. It was $20, plus $3 for the mushrooms. The fettuccine Alfredo for $24 plus $6 for the chicken was fine. It seems hard to mess that dish up. The chicken was cut in small pieces and it's hard to say how much was included but I'm guessing about 4 oz. The shortrib pasta tasted good but had less meat than I'd expect, also cut up pretty small probably to camouflage that fact, and it was $32. Basically just meat and pasta. I've had much better dishes like this at other places. Pretty ho-hum. Overall I spent about $115 all in, including tax and tip. I'm disappointed to write a poor review, especially because I know the place is relatively new, having replaced the previous dim sum place that unfortunately couldn't survive the pandemic. I don't even write reviews that much, but this was so disappointing I had to say something.

This place will not last long taking advantage of people this way. This “chopped salad” cost $19!!! That is criminal for finely sliced iceberg lettuce. I will say the chicken parm was quite good, although also overpriced.

The most excellent service in Culver City! On top of that, the Italian food is very authentic and tasty! Very close to Italy cuisine! Frank, our server was spectacular ! I /m coming back and inviting my friends and family! Ezrael

This place is an absolute gem! You’re welcomed with Parmesan-crusted pita chips and olive oil with herbs, which was very yummy and the perfect start to a delicious meal. We didn’t try their cocktails but their Arnold Palmer was the best I ever had. My husband and I shared the sausage pizza (we added olives), I got the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, and he got the bolognese. All the dishes were savory and well prepared. We ended the meal with the chocolate cake and crème brûlée, which also didn’t disappoint. The atmosphere is lovely and the service was top-notch. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive - they really elevated our overall dining experience. Thank you so much! We really enjoyed ourselves.
