Great food! Chicken Parmesan, the best in 100 mile radius. Salads always fresh and crispy. Anything you order there will be great! Run don't walk.

Fabrocini is located on the Venture strip in Tarzana, and though parking is available on the street, they also have a small section in the back. If the back is full, try and exit for the cheapest option, since there is a sectioned off area for VALET. Our server was extremely attentive, responsive, and easy to chat with. Jokingly after having a moment with the menu, I asked about their secret menu and didn't know it was a thing... I ended up ordering a Chicken Artichoke pasta, and it was AMAZING. The chicken was tender and the juices really sank in. The artichokes and greens were tasty, and the pasta was crisp and went down easy. Of course, Italian wouldn't be complete without bread and oil + balsamic, which I had stuffed myself with. Our group also ordered a Chianti wine, and it was a tasty botte. The wine was not too bold but not too sweet, a good balance of both worlds and well enjoyed throughout the duration of a two-hour meal - will definitely be returning!

The worst egg noodle soup I have ever had. The meat spaghetti sauce was just ok. The service was good, salad was good. After many years of enjoining this restaurant, sad to say that the food is not the same as it was. Will not go back.

This is a casual, local, Italian restaurant with incredible food. I always start with one of their tasty soups and we share the chopped Italian salad. (One of my favorites) All of the entrees are perfectly seasoned and well prepared in large portions. Don’t miss this great neighborhood gem.
I’m an east coaster and I found that this family run restaurant was great…. Not a fancy looking restaurant, but the food was extremely tasty… I felt like I was getting a home cooked meal. One of the things that really impressed me that I was able to tweak my entree to the way my mom prepared it.The place was very busy and the service was excellent.

This neighborhood gem is a staple for a reason. The food portions are generous and flavorful, the bread fresh and tasty, and the service is what you'd expect from a spot that has regulars that have been coming for years. It gets a bit hot in the summer but if you sit in the line of the ac, it's ok.
