Party of eight. We all had something different and everyone was happy with their choices. I had one of the chicken entrees and the meat was so tender. Pasta was excellent as well as the sage cream sauce.

This was our first time at Fritto Misto. We had heard some good things about it so decided to try it. We were so happy we did.
This place is so cute. It is comfortable and the service is so great you don't want to leave. It is just spotless and you can tell someone loves this place. It is well cared for. There is nothing not to like here. We tried a lot of things and all of it was wonderful.
Our server was so kind to us and she was fast, but never rushed us. The prices here are fair and you get good sized portions.
We loved their bread. You must have it. It comes in half loaves and loaves. It is the best, but don't fill up on it.
The Jumbo Ravioli is to die for. We had the one with with prosciutto, mortadella, and chicken, tossed with garlic cream, caramelized onions, pancetta, and sun-dried tomatoes. Just OMG.
The Garlic Shrimp is great with herb brandy cream, tossed with black and white pasta. It is cooked to perfection. We also loved the Fried Pillows which are stuffed with herb ricotta and fried in vegetable oil and served with a honey chipotle dipping sauce. That I could eat all day.
Finally, their Short Rib Ravioli with chipotle chili cream , steak tips, caramelized onions and sautéed mushrooms are so great. And you can add things if you want.
There is nothing about this place you will not love. They only take reservations for 6 or more so there may be a wait. Just eat a little early. We waited less than 10 minutes.
Incredible portions for the price! Good wine options (even tho our waiter wasn’t well versed on them, but that’s okay!). The build your own pasta is super fun!

A Hidden Gem in Hermosa Beach!
I recently dined at Fritto Misto and can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. I had the Atomic chicken pasta, bursting with flavors from red, green, and yellow peppers, all enveloped in a rich, spicy cream sauce—honestly, the best pasta I've ever tasted! My husband enjoyed the carnivore linguini, which was equally divine.
Our server was exceptional, offering spot-on wine and food recommendations that enhanced our meal. The house wine was delightful, and we couldn't resist trying the tiramisu, which was the perfect sweet ending. As soon as your seated, warm delicious bread is on your table.
The atmosphere was cozy and romantic, and the staff was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring our glasses were always full and plates cleared promptly. Fritto Misto is truly a perfect hole-in-the-wall gem for a romantic dinner. We can't wait to return!
Unfortunately the food and experience was so good, we didn’t have a chance to snap a photo!

We moved to California three months ago and have been searching for the place we can go where everyone (all 5 in the family) is happy!
Manuel and the entire staff working Monday 9/2 were exceptional. My background is in FOH managing at the Capital Grille. This restaurant was a pleasure to dine at but more importantly the food was excellent. Somehow they even made kids chicken fingers unique and wonderful! My husband and I had the atomic chicken pasta and chicken picatta- along with a half order of calamari and Caesar- the portions were well worth the price and there were a variety of pasta options and it was all cooked expertly. Beautiful presentation, friendly and helpful service. We can’t wait to go back.

Great spot. Easily one of if not my favorite restaurant in LA. Super friendly service. The artichoke shrimp gnocchi is genuinely incredible. Be sure to ask for fresh garlic with the bread

We celebrated a friend's birthday here and it was such a good experience. They were so accommodating. There was a $5 corkage fee per person drinking and even allowed us to bring in a cake. It's a great place to celebrate a special occasion with a group and the food is fantastic too.
Fritto Misto is one of the best family Italian restaurants in the South Bay. The hostess and servers have always been friendly and the food is excellent. ? The bread is warm and fresh and the pasta is cooked to perfection.

Food and service was amazing! It was not busy because we were in between lunch and dinner crowds, so we were a little hesitant because we were the only ones when we first walked in, but so glad we decided to eat here! We loved that we got bread with garlic, oil, and balsamic before even ordering! The noodles were homemade and delicious. The fried pillows were great. All of the food tasted very fresh. Service was excellent! She was so kind and friendly and we got to share some stories, we can't wait to come back next year!
Have heard a lot of good things about this restaurant but we weren’t overly impressed. We had someone in our party that had food allergies but the manager didn’t want to take the time to look at the ingredients to see if we could eat the food. The waiter was fantastic and very thoughtful. If there’s such a thing as food coming out too quickly that was the case here. Seems like a lot of the meals were premade because the main course came out in <10 mins. The short rib ravioli was fantastic as well as the freshly made pasta, however Italian staples like the Marsala chicken had no flavor. The portions are also massive. We wish the manager had been more accommodating/understanding of our food allergies instead of just shrugging us off.
