The staff was so helpful. We got there without a reservation, but they worked it out within minutes and so nicely! The food is great, all the things we ordered came out terrific, and so quickly. We'll eat there again soon!

Really good Italian food and loved the environment. Service was ok, definitely had to flag down our waiter for things but overall good!

Such a cute little spot! The room is tiny but in a good way--cozy and intimate. We went around 8:30 PM, and it was packed, but we still got a table within a few minutes. The prices are on the higher side, but totally reasonable for LA. More importantly, the food was amazing. We ordered the garlic bread to start; It came warm and it tasted wonderful. I had the gnocchi vodka pasta, and wow--SO GOOD. I also ordered a side of roasted veggies, and they were super fresh and perfectly cooked. My date got the linguini alfredo and loved every bite. Portions were a great size too--definitely left happy and full. Service was excellent. Our waiter checked in often and was really helpful. The whole place had an authentic feel, with people speaking Italian around us, which made the experience even better. Would absolutely come back!

I hesitate to write about this neighborhood gem because it already has hordes of people on the sidewalk waiting to get in at peak times. As the Trattoria in its name indicates, It is a simple, no frills establishment - one where you can count on getting consistent, authentic Italian cuisine executed perfectly every time. The portions are filling and prices fair. You start the meal by being served freshly baked Italian bread to dip in olive oil and whet your appetite while perusing a surprisingly large menu. They also have a few specials every night, including some of the best lasagna I have ever had. Favorites include the linguine pescatore, farfalle con pollo, chicken picatta, chicken alla parmigiana, linguine bolognese, burrata e pomodori salad and garlic bread. They have a small wine and beer menu and a few desserts as well. If you like tiramisu, you will not find a better one in LA than the one served here. The owner, Davide, is a charming and kind soul who mans the front of the house most weekends. Service is efficient in a team concept, but the entrees are all made to order so they do take a bit of time to cone out. The ambience is definitely not fancy, but clean and well maintained. They do pack tables fairly close together though to accommodate as many as possible in a relatively small space. If you are in or near the Westwood area, Pomodoro should be a must stop for authentic Italian cuisine in a casual setting.

came here for dinner and tried the fresh gnocchi. It was absolutely delicious. The service was really friendly and attentive. Has a really old world Italy feel here. They value keeping it traditional and quaint. There's a lot of different styles of pasta here and flavors of sauces. Ranges from pesto tomato, and basil, vodka sauce, etc. I got the gnocchi because they said they made it fresh daily, which was pretty cool. It literally was too delicious. I really want to go back here soon and have some more gnocchi. I got the gnocchi with chicken and it was a good portion, I only ate half. For parking I just parked on the side street, but you can also park on the main street. This is a must try!

Great experience here on a Saturday evening. A nice crowd of locals. The staff were helpful and friendly, Felipe had a sense of humor also. We had the Spaghetti Mediterranean and the Penne con Turkey sausage. Both were delicious and freshly cooked to perfection! The Insalata Pomodoro was good also, light and tasty. They give bread and wifey had a bottle of Rose wine ($30). Small and quaint with a great menu. We will return. Go and try it out folks, you won't be disappointed....
