Cantalinis Salerno Beach Restaurant 193 Culver Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90293

"I don’t recommend coming here restaurant front looks like it would be a delicious mom and pop hole in the wall spot but once you walk in they are attempting fine dining but not succeeding food was mediocre at best and at $25+ a plate it was a disappointment food was basic ingredients were low quality and under seasoned quality wasn’t there and they have too many tables to the point that servers are constantly bumping into you and your elbow to elbow with other guests. One of the servers knocked my purse off the back of my chair and didn’t even apologize. Also weird side note but their ladies restroom is in a dirty dive bar next door that smells like cigarettes. I rarely write a bad restaurant review but I couldn’t get over a $130 bill for an app 2 entrees and 2 glasses of wine. It’s giving overpriced Olive Garden. The only positive was the live music."

"Food was outstanding had been looking for a place that made really good linguine & clams this place is rite up there! Service was on par very attentive love this place definitely gonna go back"

"Best traditional Italian food I have had in ages. Anchovies are an option on the Caesar! That’s hard to find these days. The garlic bread is superb. The pesto stole the show. The limoncello dessert paired with the house port sent us over the moon. The house Chianti is superb. The ambiance is more festive than the usual traditional Italian place. The service was great. They know how to make you feel taken care of without interrupting conversation. They were kind enough to squeeze us in early on NYE without a reservation. We got lucky. We will be back!"

"Enjoyed this a lot. Fried calamari was better than many other Italian restaurants (at least it is crispy). Seafood stew was standard."

"If you are looking for a cute cozy and yummy american italian dinner, you found it! I cant believe i have never tried this place, we will definitely be back. The bruschetta was refreshing and melts in your mouth, and the calamari was crispy and fresh without being overly oily. The chicken parm was delicious and THE GNOCCHI!!! it is so hard to find really good gnocchi, and this place has it. I am full and happy"
