"I had the most amazing craving I’ve fettuccine Alfredo… Chicken, fettuccine Alfredo and I did not regret coming here. The hostess was extremely cool and very helpful as I needed to be guided here because I got lost lol she was so cool she stayed on the phone with me for about five minutes and helped me find my way here, and I was so grateful.! The bread, the appetizer bread I should say order the butter it is absolutely delicious! Get two types. I enjoyed the soft bread, but when I got my chicken fettuccine Alfredo? I was immediately in heaven I love the size of the noodles, and I comped it with a glass of lemonade I found the service to be exceptionally friendly. I was very grateful I love the atmosphere, and I can’t say enough good things about my waiter. If you want an elegant experience that ironically is in the middle of one of the biggest outdoor malls in Los Angeles, then find your way here! I had a cappuccino that I mixed with sweet sugar and it was the perfect finish the lovely evening I would’ve eaten so much bread I would’ve ordered dessert lol"

"I’ve been coming to this place for about easily over a decade now, maybe two, and still love going here. Even though it is located in the mall at the Westfield Century City, they are able to maintain their quality of food and service. Their food ingredients are always fresh and remain to be authentic Italian style of cuisine. I love their fresh grilled calamari salad and I’ve been ordering this for decades! I love everything else, but this one I always order. Their service is consistently good, and they seem to always do a great job in suggesting food choices. The ambiance is always good, and the location can’t be beat because it’s right there in the mall at Century City. Unfortunately, just like any other restaurants in the whole Westfield, they do not validate if you parked in the mall. So make sure that you are aware of the charges of the mall’s parking."

"Food was healthy, fresh and delicious. Ordered 1) Tonno Primavera - marinated tuna in olive oil with potato, string beans, olives, cherry tomatoes and friseé; and 2) Branzino with sauteed spinach. The Tonno Primavera was a perfectly satisfying dinner salad. The mouthwatering Branzino was cooked to perfection. Low salt, low sugar - these are excellent dishes if you are health-conscious. Service was prompt and excellent. Alessandra was courteous, professional, well-poised, friendly, and timely with each check-in. Mari was great and ensured that my glass of water was never empty. The water is delicious, too. Ambiance was serene, tranquil, sophisticated and just the right amount of lively. Highly recommend this restaurant, and the team effort here. Many thanks to Agostino Sciandri and the Sciandri Family for delivering an excellent culinary experience to all, whether you are fine-dining or taking a break from shopping!"

"The foods are okay with a lot of different choices of pasta, pizza and other main dishes. However, does not feel welcomed by the manager and staff from stepping in the restaurant. We get very annoying that that waiting keep trying to clear plate while there are still foods in there and without asking if we want to keep it or not. It feel like they want to rush you to get next course. Even after they clear the starter plate, it still take ages to get served main course. I order a non alcoholic spicy mango cocktail which suppose to come with Tajin rink but it did not. I get a plain mango lime juice instead. I have to ask where is the spicy? Very disappointed"

"Beautiful restaurant, disappointing food at Toscanova last week. My appetizer included a warm seafood salad with muscles, shrimp, octopus and scallop. It was not good at all. The seafood was severely overcooked to the point that it was like rubber. Not only was it not cooked well, it tasted like nothing. No flavor, no seasoning. It was bad. For an appetizer I also had the black truffle risotto which was undercooked. Flavor wise, you can't go wrong with truffle, so at least it tasted good even though it was al dente. Entrée were the veal chop and lamb chop. Those had to be some of the smallest lamb chops I've ever gotten. The meat portion was about the size of a quarter. Not only was the serving tiny, they were charred on the backside as well. The broccolini that came with them was so overcooked it had the texture of boiled spinach and the potatoes were dry. The veal chop flavor was good, and the mushroom sauce a very nice compliment to the meat, however I asked for my meat to be cooked to medium rare and it was medium. Service was slow and the food was not $225 worth."
