Cecconi’s: A Hollywood Favorite for Celebrities and the Rich 🌟
I can’t remember where I first saw this Italian restaurant on my list, but I was heading to Community Goods and found it packed, so I decided to grab lunch here instead. The decor is modern and relaxed—perfect for a laid-back meal! Even Drake has dined here, so you might just spot a celebrity. We walked in at 12 PM on a Saturday, but you can also book through their website! 📅 🍝 Pasta Highlights: - Rigatoni Beef Bolognese $29 - Cavatelli Lamb Ragu, Pecorino, Mint $36 Their pasta is really delicious and al dente. American portions are huge—two of us couldn’t finish our dishes! 🍝 I personally loved the Cavatelli Lamb Ragu . The sauce is a yogurt-based mixture with lamb, which isn’t too greasy and has a rich flavor. However, my friend found it a bit too salty compared to the Rigatoni Beef Bolognese , which was definitely saltier. 🍖 Calamari $23 is a must-order at any Italian restaurant, and theirs was fantastic! The batter was light and not too thick, and their dipping sauce was amazing—no fishy aftertaste! 🦑 Aperol Spritz $21 is a classic Italian cocktail, perfect for a refreshing drink. 🍸 Orange Juice $8 was simple but fresh. Vanilla Gelato $6 was a bit disappointing. It tasted like it was pre-scooped and frozen, giving it a fridge-like flavor. The inside was fine, but the outer layer was off... 🍦 We were so full, but I would have loved to try their Tiramisu and Pizza next time. Definitely a place I’d revisit! 🥪 📍 Cecconi’s West Hollywood #ItalianCuisine #LosAngelesTravel #Cecconi #LAFoodie #WestHollywood #Hollywood #LosAngelesRestaurants #California #LA
