Pagliacci's Trattoria Taverna

"Pagliacci's is one of the most authentic and flavorful Italian restaurants in LA. When I consider restaurant quality, I think of consistency in taste and service, and Pagliacci's always meets these standards. Regardless of the plate you order, from pasta to tomato-based dishes to pizza, the quality and taste are always superb. The staff is always super-friendly and courteous. My son and I will go there even if we're not fully hungry just to taste a slice of Tiramisu, which is by far the best we've ever tried. If you are looking for an amazing culinary Italian experience, look no further. Pagliacci's Trattoria is the place to go, even if you have to commute from further away."

"I ordered delivery and paid $50 for one of my dishes. It was seafood. The “Maine lobster” was about three ounces with the shell. The squid tasted like rubber bands. And there was a single spaghetti noodle. Yes. Just one noodle. Why can’t we get refunds on food?"

"I just love this place when I'm having dinner by myself. I sit at the bar, chat with the bartender and have a great time while eating good food"

"A small trattoria with a big taste. The authentic Italian menu features a variety of favorites and some new Italian finds. I tried the Tortellacci di Zucca, which is a housemade pumpkin tortellacci with sage in a sage cream sauce. So decadent. We also had the Pappardelle di Manzo, housemade pappardelle, Angus short ribs rage and tomato sauce. Another savory dish. In addition to housemade pasta dishes Pagliacci's offers signature dishes which include fish, filet mignon, osso bucco, chicken and veal. The staples of pizza and antipasti are just as salvating. The menu is accompanied with a very well paired wine list. We enjoyed a merlot and a sauvignon blanc. The location is easy to find on the corner of Coldwater Canyon and Moorpark, but be prepared there is valet only parking in this tiny center. We found parking on the street and walked to the restaurant, which helped after the meal to walk a bit back to the car. The restaurant inside is small and intimate. Enjoy the housemade pasta and wine with a good conversation, or watch your sporting event on their TV. Kids are welcome, but this really isn't a place for kids and no room for them to move around. It is very close quarters, like a true trattoria!"

"I've been enjoying Pagliacci’s Trattoria since it's remodel in 2010. The pastas are homemade and delivered piping hot to your table. The lassagne is a favorite and you can't go wrong with the burger, pizzas or biscentina sandwich. I prefer bruschetta without cheese but my dinner companions loved it. The tiramisu is delicious. For those ordering food to go, when any hot dishes sit in a box to get delivered, your food will never be like the restaurant experience. During a pandemic its important to keep that in mind. I am so glad this restaurant has survived difficult times and maintains high food quality and service! Great place to eat and enjoy a delicious dinner and nice ambiance."
