Wife wanted to try this place for a while and definitely did not disappoint. The risotto was definitely one of the better ones. Wife and kids loved the risotto. The calamari was a great portion for family to share. What stood out here the most was the service. Service was impeccable here. Will frequent this place!

From the sound of it and what others have warned me is that this place does some sketchy business like adding extra tip and signing your receipt type of stuff. I'd skip it, especially if you don't live in the area because they'd take advantage of that.

Great food. Reminds me of being back in Italia. Great wine selections. Greco di tufo was bellissimo! Would be 5 for the atmosphere if located away from the shopping center.

The manager's behavior was incredibly disrespectful and unprofessional. Previously our go-to Italian restaurant, we're hesitant to return after this experience. Upon our arrival, he berated us for our smaller party size due to last-minute cancellations, even threatening to make us wait an hour. As we left, he ominously mentioned blacklisting us. His comments, particularly about our professions in the medical field, were offensive and bordered on discrimination. This treatment is unacceptable.

Mid food ngl, the pizza does have a char on it but I'm pretty sure it is not wood fired. The oven isn't even burning. Pasta was mid same as the pizza. Honestly cpk pizza taste better and is higher quality. Don't even try to get the skinny martini with the help voucher, it's outdated lots of better Italian restaurants in Hollywood and in century city. But ambience is good ig, server was nice GRAZIEEE

I can't say enough good things about Toscanova Century City - it is my go to for the perfect ambience over a client lunch because you know the food will be consistently good so all you have to worry about is paying attention to your fellow diner :)

We recently had the worst restaurant experience that I can remember. We had been frequenting this restaurant for years. We had not been to this restaurant in a few months due to the hectic, holiday season at the mall. When we arrived back toward the end of January, our usual, waiter was not available. Our waiter took the order, and I ordered a dish that I had been ordering for years. I liked to exchange one or two of the vegetables on the dish. We always offer to pay extra if we have a change. The waiter seemed confused about my request, and subsequently, a man who probably was the manager came to our table. He was angry and confronted me with my request and said that the restaurant has never done this. I told him that I had ordered this dish many times over the years and he said he didn't remember me. He accused me of lying that I had ever been there before and ordered this dish. He was insulting, hostile, angry, and ordered me to pick something else on the menu. After he stormed away, we left. Recently, my husband and a friend and I went to a different local Italian restaurant and had the absolute best experience. The manager and wait staff were kind, flexible, helpful, and accommodating. Please see my review of La bruschetta, the best.

Food is average at best .Had whole grilled branzino , eggplant rigatoni, peach salad with arugula , pane cota & tiramisu .The fish was tasty , nothing fansy but grilled white fish.The pasta had too much sauce and maybe 2/3 small pieces of eggplants in it. I make better at home for less than $26.Peach salad was good- nice combination of arugula, peach and warm cheese on top.Pane cota, tiramisu and cappuccino were great .They charged $1.75 extra for milk for coffee ?.Overall , $200 for 3 people~ average food . You decide.

Average at best ~ for LA standards!! Had their peach and arugula salad , Whole grilled branzino and two pasta dishes& dessert . Honestly the pane cota was the tastiest on the menu. Not saying the place is bad but for price $$ you pay , it's just average . Service was good and the staff were very friendly.
