"Unlike your aunt's lunch order at Coral Tree Cafe, the food at Palmeri tastes like something. Here you're served a delicious (and complimentary) scorched goat cheese appetizer that's lightyears better than a basket of stale bread sticks. The pasta is fresh, and the pizzas hit the spot. A knockout meal at Palmeri also makes us forget how boring and expensive this place is. The most exciting thing to do here is eavesdrop on the married couple next to you and hear all about their mutual distaste for their chiropractor’s receptionist. Expect to spend a pretty penny on a perfect veal chop in a half-empty restaurant, but we still think Palmeri is the best date night option in Brentwood. " - sylvio martins, arden shore, brant cox

"Palmeri is our favorite date night spot in the neighborhood, even though it can often feel awkwardly half-empty. Use the peace and quiet to talk with someone for hours, or maybe eavesdrop on another couple's mundane argument while you eat some consistently good Italian food. We like the crispy-bottomed, bubbly-topped pizzas, the meaty bolognese over fresh tagliatelle, and the perfectly cooked veal chop." - sylvio martins, brant cox, nikko duren

A great Italian restaurant in Brentwood! When you come here you feel like you’re going to your friends/family restaurant. The whole team is really nice and friendly. The owner/chef came a few times to chat with us, which was cool! I came here a few times and would always get the bolognese that is actually really really good. And, never tried something else. But, this time I wanted something more light and went with the “Salmone”, which was really tasty! I really liked it. Other people in my party got the ribeye and the ravioli - and nothing was left on the plates. As a starter we did get the burrata - the cheese was really great. And, they also bring like a small appetizer to snack on with tomato sauce and cheese - just eating it with a spoon was delicious! So, I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a chill, quiet Italian restaurant with amazing food!

We've been here a few times, and this last time was very disappointing. I ordered the "Braised Piemontese Beef short ribs." I normally love short ribs and I've had them at many other restaurants. Usually there's a lot of lean beef. Even if there's fat, when the fat is cut off, there's plenty of lean beef. But at Palmeri's, after I cut off the fat and bone, there was only a small amount of meat left. That's ridiculous, especially when it costs as much as it did. The picture attached to this review, shows the bones and fat at the top of the plate, and the very small amount of actual meat on the bottom. In my opinion, this is taking advantage of customers.

Food was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!! 10/10 I was visiting from out of town and decided to try, and it did not disappoint. Whenever I return to California they will be first on my list to return to for another meal. Plus the service was wonderful! They also made me a margarita upon my request and it was one the best margaritas I’ve ever had.

Excellent food with amazing flavors. Great service and the perfect amount of attention by the staff. Beginning with bread and Balsamico, over crab meat filled black Ravioli to the Tiramisu and coffee - everything was as perfect as can be.

Wonderful food! A little bit of a slower scene, but what a lovely place to go to hang for friends for a whole evening. You will not be rushed. The 5 of us ordered the fritto misto, fried squash blossom, burrata, bresaola, and pheasant pasta, and bolognese for appetizers. Most of us ordered lamb as our main. The pheasant pasta and lambs were standouts but everything was terrific including our martinis and wine. This is our new go to - even if you want to catch a game at the bar and have a pasta.

Amazing service, vibe, and food. After hearing all the great things about Mr. Octavio and his restaurant, I had to check it out for myself. I have to say hands down the best food I have had in Los Angeles. If you don't try you are missing out. will be returning soon for my girls b day!

Great dinner on a busy Saturday. The bread and the side ricotta with tomato sauce was so good. Pasta pepardele was delicious and so was the chocolate hazelnut cake. Good service and all around good experience.

Beautiful Italian food and wine that was backed up with great service. The tiramisu was great, as was the lemoncello and the pasta and the primi.
