ITALIAN PASTA CO. (HOLLYWOOD) — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Employees are VERY rude and lazy. Can't even be bothered checking the wait time on an order with the kitchen. They just stand there& flirt. Do not recommend if you value your time. I was recommended the food, but even then it was not good enough to compensate.

Edit: Since the owner/employee decided to write back, here are my two-cents as a follow up: You're more than welcome to check the camera footage and see that what I said checks out. There was even jump-roping attempted behind the counter? The guy just stood there when asked if he could double check with the back for an ETA when I had already been waiting 15 minutes for something I was told would only take 5-10 minutes. When asked what kind of vegan cheese they used, they couldn't give me an answer. The fact that you try to twist this into a victimizing story instead of checking the employees is very telling. I have no problem with your family run business. It's the service that...

Pesto is made with avocado and its heavy on the avocado. I hated it.

Edit: I had other people taste it and they could also could tell there was avocado. I have a creamy Pesto which can only be done with either cream or avocado (to keep it a bright green). I understand that Pesto can be made differently at a lot of places however as a fresh Pesto lover (and I make my own); this was NOT good. If this is in fact your recipe without avocado then please look at how you're making it cause all the flavors that make pesto what it is, is completely lost. I've also ordered your Mozzarella sticks a few times thinking the 1st time was a fluke but no. Every time there is no flavor the breading is bland and cooked in old oil. I know b/c old old has a distinctive color and taste. It was so bad I stopped after 2 and threw it away. Try panko instead of breading and season your cornstarch, egg mixer, & panko. You'll get better flavor and...

I always order from the Echo Park location and that one is AMAZING. Always the same amazing quality. They always use real cheese and everything is flavorful. I ordered via uber eats tonight and I guess the usual one was closed so it gave me this one. I got the same order as always and I have never been so disappointed. Hardly any sauce on pasta and it tasted watery and bland, added chicken for 7 bucks extra and it barely looks like I got an 1/8th of a breast put in there. I also got garlic knots and those tasted grainy and raw at the same time with no flavor. This was highly disappointing since I always only ever get the other location and the vast difference between the 2 is crazy. They don’t even look like they’re from the same place. If you ever want to order from here, make sure you get the Echo Park location, can’t recommend them...
