The staff is genuinely so kind!!! So attentive they were all so welcoming, had great recs, and were kind to our entire table of 8. Even on a rainy night the vibes were perfect and we kept warm with their outdoor heater. They asked what we were celebrating and it was my sisters birthday, they sang a beautiful song in Italian to her and even gifted her a little something on the side!! Just wow I love my city and this Italian spot on 4th street is the embodiment of that LBC kindness and hospitality!! 10/10 can’t wait to be back and try the whole menu!!

I was craving pasta and my boyfriend and I decided on this restaurant. The outdoor patio area was cozy and dog friendly (which is always a plus for us). The ambiance, food, and service were amazing, would definitely return & recommend!!

Charged me twice for my food, and Carlos was so unbelievably unhelpful that I actually had to use a credit card chargeback to get my stolen money. On top of this headache, the food was laughable! Every single one of you can make food better than this for 1/4 the price, you guys got this!

We waited almost 2 hours to be seated here. I ordered the papa tony which is supposed to be orchiette, spicy Italian sausage, and broccolini. They served the sausage sliced and laid on top of the pasta, like how you would slice hot dog pieces. Additionally, it came with broccoli not broccolini and the whole dish was swimming in a pool of oil. I didn't think anyone could mess up this dish, but I was proven wrong. Insulting to call this Italian food.

Saw this place on Instagram and checked it out; it did not disappoint. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Will definitely be returning another night; very intimate.

I was very impressed with Tarantella in Long Beach. I got the Linguine Del Pescatore and loved it. The sauce was flavorful tomatoey, with little hint of spice, and some sweetness. There was plenty of clams, mussels, shrimp, scallops, and calamari to make the dish worthwhile. The plate was well balanced with the pasta, sauce, and seafood. Someone was playing a saxophone inside and it is a really chill and elegant vibe. I would definitely come back here if I were in the area again.

Oh. My. God. I LOVED literally everything. I took my sister here for her birthday for the first time, and can I just say literal perfection. We started off with 2 Sprites with the Habanero Garlic Flatbread for the appetizer and practically ate it within a minute.

The bread was perfect with a nice cheese layer on top, once bit you get that gooey garlic and cheese in between. For the main dishes, we got the Gnocchi Pesto and the Spaghetti Carbonara. The Gnocchi Pesto was just perfection, perfect amount of cheese and pesto, the Gnocchi itself was cooked perfectly.

The Spaghetti Carbonara was also amazing, with bits of bacon, creamy sauce, noodles cooked perfectly, all delicious. We also got a tiramisu, and they provided a free dessert for my sister's birthday.

I would 100% recomend this restaurant, just know that the prices are not cheap but definitely worth it for the quality of food and amount given. I will include a picture of the reciept for those wondering how much everything was.

We almost missed our reservation because we couldn't find parking anywhere close by. The staff was super accommodating in letting us push our reservation to a later time and we Lyfted over. The restaurant is very quaint, cute and they had a musician playing on the back patio. The food was just ok - we had crab cakes which tasted more of breading than crab and may have been frozen. I tried the suggested special of bison ravioli and my husband had the Cioppino, which were both a little bland but hearty. I expected much more since their reviews were so good but we tried. Not one I'd come back to, unfortunately.

Great place for date night or just a great meal. This is our 2nd time there and they never disappoint. The live music always set the mood!
