Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Silver Lake

quickly became one of my favorite restaurants in LA. It’s expensive but worth every penny, especially as the restaurant is pretty generous with the portions. The Pane with pistachios and ricotta is amazing along with the the broccolini caesar salad. The uni pasta is simple and elegant, and one of the best i’ve had, especially topped with grade A uni. Don’t skip dessert and take any digestifif offered. $350 for 2 people. Not cheap, but well worth it and unique amongst the many high end choices in Los Angeles

The entire evening was terrific! From the service to the food, we had no complaints and would certainly dine her again and recommend it to our friends

If you are lucky enough to score on of the 6 tables at Da Barbara you will not be disappointed. The setting is not what you expect - a small intimate restaurant in a live/work loft in Hollywood and you wonder how such amazing food comes out of the small open kitchen and prepared by Barbara herself. The rest of the staff is amazing and you are made to feel like your first time there is your 21st! Make a reservation and be prepared to have an extraordinary experience.

The food was delicious. The service was impeccable. Thank you Lala and Marguerite. This is my favorite restaurant in downtown Los Angeles. We will see you again in about a month.

We made reservations through Open Table months ago and never received notice that they are not yet open. All dressed up and got there to a construction zone. We called and never received a call back. We messaged them through Insta and never received a reply. Things happen, openings are delayed, but a phone call would have been appreciated. I received multiple reminders of my reservation, they HAVE to have some sort of communication with Open Table, but no one bothered to get in touch with us so we could make other plans. Happy Anniversary to us! 😒 ****We received a lovely note from the ownership and will be dining with them upon opening. At that time, we’ll let you know how it was. The note alone was reason to update our review.****
