If dining here you must take advantage of the many different cheeses on the menu. We had a special mozzerella that was flown in from Italy. So good. Great, attentive service. Would go back again but also a big fan of the pizza next door. more

This was our big splurge on a trip to LA to drop my daughter off at college. We dressed nicely and arrived 10 minutes past our reservation time (5:45 PM) due to traffic (we left 45 minutes early and still got stuck!). There were some diners in jeans and others who were dressed up, so there didn't seem to be... more

Osteria Mozza has incredibly delicious food. My husband and I split a burrata, salad, and beef short ribs, and had a carafe of wine. Everything was amazing, but jus know that it is going to be at least $100 per person if you each have your own entree, appetizer and wine. more

Whenever I go to LA on business, I always pick one pricey restaurant for a "splurge evening". With all the great reviews, I had to make Osteria Mozza my choice this year, and I was beyond thrilled with the results. Let me say up front 2 negative things about the restaurant. First, it's REALLY expensive and the bar DOES NOT... more

During our recent trip to California, we, unfortunately, only had the opportunity to have one dinner in LA. My fanatical love of cheese (particularly burrata) led us to Mozza. And after weeks of salivating while reading the menu, we had an incredible meal. Everything from the the burrata, to the pasta and the beef was wonderful. Try the ricotta and... more

Briefly, the decor was spare and the ambiance noisy. My "caprese" appetizer contained a few (admittedly sweet) halved cherry tomatoes and a poor quality, tasteless oval of mozzarella, not recognizable as "bufala". Two of our party ordered meat main courses and asked for "medium" preparation. Both arrived extremely rare. One fish main course arrived raw and had to be sent... more

I was looking forward to the tripe, after enjoying it at Mario's Las Vegas restaurant, but I became ill that afternoon, but I insisted that my husband and our guest go without me. Everyone loved the food, and complimented the great service, and thoughtful, sweetness that he is, my husband asked them to prepare a take-out of the tripe, along... more

...the best short ribs I've ever had! I can't even believe how good the food was. It's extremely expensive. Unless you're really hungry, just 1 of the secondi plates will be more than suficient for one person. Make sure you call exactly 1 month ahead of time to make your reservation, as they never have much availability. The atmosphere is... more

Aside from a rough start, when the barman couldn't understand my husband's accent and was kinda rude about it, we settled into a beautiful dinner. The mozzerella dishes were exquisite and my husband had THE best steak he's ever tasted - and he's tasted alot! The staff (other than the bar guy) we amazing and attentive, stepping aside for me... more
