- PPeterVIPLos Angeles •86 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe've been going back to Orto for years for a simple reason: it's always uniformly good. The food is superb, the service attentive without being invasive, and the ambiance ideal for carrying on a conversation without having to speak above a normal tone of voice.More infoOrto Santa MonicaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Santa Monica•4.8

- DDavidLos Angeles •19 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoAnother spectacular meal at Gjelina. I've made it my mission to work my way through the menu, and last night I tried the orecchiette with beef cheek bolognese, Japanese turnip and coal-roasted cabbage - all excellent. Special props to the orecchiette. The pasta was perfectly al dente, the sauce was rich and savory and the addition of the dollop of ricotta bound all the elements together beautifully. Loved it.More infoGjelinaPrice: Expensive• American• Venice•4.7
