"Did you just lose your phone in the back of an Uber on the way home from LAX? Are you now in need of a place to land face-first into a pile of spaghetti and meatballs? Sunday Gravy in Inglewood has you covered. The environment at this counter-service Italian spot is casual, the comfort foods here feel familiar, and considering the massive portions, Sunday Gravy isn’t too pricey—most of the pasta costs less than $20, and with leftovers could technically count as both lunch and dinner." - jess basser sanders, sylvio martins
"This Inglewood Italian American restaurant is the kind of place that was made for lazy Sunday nights. It feels casual and comforting, like a new-school spot with the bones of an old-school one. That’s probably because the brother and sister team behind Sunday Gravy took over their dad’s pizza joint and gave it a total revamp. Tables are covered in red checkered tablecloths, but the bumping playlist mixes rap and R&B. Order the spaghetti and meatballs and a chicken parm sandwich, or some lasagna with a side of cheesy garlic bread." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore
"Sunday Gravy is a cozy brother-and-sister-owned restaurant on Centinela near South La Brea. It’s exactly as the name suggests: An Italian-American hangout with antipasti, lasagna, meatballs, and a little bit of Los Angeles — think short rib ragu Italian french fries. The restaurant’s Centinela location makes it an easy stop on the way to, or from, SoFi Stadium. For post-show hunger, try one of the larger mains, like the chicken Parm cutlet, paired with one of Los Angeles’s best Caesar salads. Grab a glass of wine from the tight selection, and let any memory of the stadium parking lot slowly dissipate between bites of spaghetti." - Mona Holmes
"A dose of homey Italian American cooking is essential before or after sitting in airport traffic. Sunday Gravy, operated by brother and sister duo Sol and Ghazi Bashirian, has gained a cult following for its preparation of classic East Coast red sauce dishes like spaghetti and meatballs, ragu, and Bolognese. For post-flight hunger, try one of the larger mains, like the chicken Parm cutlet, paired with one of Los Angeles’s best Caesar salads. Grab a glass of wine from the tight selection, and let any memory of the airport slowly dissipate between bites of pasta." - Eater Staff
"Straightforward and satisfying Italian American fare is the specialty at Sunday Gravy. This brother-and-sister operation prepares the genre’s greatest hits, including fusilli alla vodka, spaghetti and meatballs, and linguine with clams. The cheesy garlic bread makes for a heavy-hitting starter or side dish, along with the fried Brussels sprouts. Think of Sunday Gravy as the best version of your neighborhood mom-and-pop Italian restaurant — nothing too fussy but all the comfort you want in a bowl of pasta." - Matthew Kang
