- SStevenVIPNew York City •10 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoMy daughter and I dined at Bestia as first-timers before heading to the Disney Concert Hall to listen to the amazing Jennifer Hudson. Several parties around us were doing the same thing-great minds think alike. After receiving lots of helpful suggestions from Franklin, our server, we opted for a glass of Riesling and a Cruise Control as our beverages and shared a Margherita pizza, Cavatelli alla Norcina, and the Grilled Pork Collar. All were delicious options. The pizza was so flavorful with just the right amount of char on the crust. The pasta married the sauce, sausage and shaved truffles so well, and the pork collar was sublime; tender and flavorful. For dessert we shared the Holiday Cookie Frozen Torte which gave us a little of everything-cake, coconut, pecans and ice cream. Franklin and his team were friendly, attentive, and professional. We both agreed we would love to dine here againMore infoBestiaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.7
- IIanLos Angeles •4 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWe went to Vespaio before an event at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. We planned an early dinner, knowing how busy the restaurant gets. We sat outside and had heat lamps to warm us. Because we were eating a bit early, we had exceptional attention. The food, as always, was fantastic. As we finished our meal, the restaurant became packed with diners. Lesson: For exceptional service, dine a little bit early or a little bit late, 6 to 8 pm is very crowded.More infoVespaioPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.3

- VVictoriaLos Angeles •1 review5.0Dined on Jul 28, 2024We made reservations through Open Table months ago and never received notice that they are not yet open. All dressed up and got there to a construction zone. We called and never received a call back. We messaged them through Insta and never received a reply. Things happen, openings are delayed, but a phone call would have been appreciated. I received multiple reminders of my reservation, they HAVE to have some sort of communication with Open Table, but no one bothered to get in touch with us so we could make other plans. Happy Anniversary to us! 😒 ****We received a lovely note from the ownership and will be dining with them upon opening. At that time, we’ll let you know how it was. The note alone was reason to update our review.****More infoSettecento DTLAPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•5
