TLDR: Go somewhere else, this place sucks. Made a reservation for my partner’s birthday. I’m very type A so I planned the perfect day of various activities and this was the one place that completely ruined the day. We got there as soon as it opened for dinner and I just asked for them to sing for my partner’s birthday if they can with no expectations. However, as soon as I got there I already knew they didn’t even bother reading the reservation. They asked me if I wanted to be seated outdoors or indoors, which was already asked online when I made the reservation. I tried to keep a positive attitude, so we get seated inside (I chose inside because it’s rainy and cold) and I took my jacket off thinking it would be warm but it was so cold. I chose this spot thinking it would have a cute homey ambiance, but it wasn’t a cute ambiance at all, just felt like eating at home and the lights went out so a candle was lit. Jesus was our server and we noticed that everyone who got seated before us already got their water and we were waiting until he got to us. All the other servers seemed attentive, ours went missing. He gave us our menu and was gone for a while so we already decided on what we will get. He comes back to explain the special after many minutes of waiting to order, then tells us to take our time??? Like we already decided what we wanted from how long you were gone for… He finally comes back and we make our order of a seafood pasta and a carbonara dish. We got the bread basket, which is the most disappointing bread basket I’ve ever gotten by the way. I’m surprised they even charge for more because it’s really nothing special. Finally, our food is served, the carbonara was okay but it was a little too salty and why are they using bacon? My seafood pasta was okay ish. The sauce had sand from probably the clam or mussels. The squid was great, shrimp and scallops were good, mussels were not clean at all and had some crunch from small broken shell pieces and sand and hair. Also the gnocchi was not good at all. It was just dough cut up, no shape and overcooked, not the typical chewy texture. We finish and wait for our waiter to come back to us. He comes back and asks if we want anything else, after our disappointment, I did not want to be even more upset over dessert so I said no we’re good. He comes back with the check and tells us to take our time and disappears??? Like we have no food left to finish, we’re just trying to pay and leave, but we just decided after some time of waiting to pay we walked up to the front and asked to pay. My partner isn’t even a picky eater at all and even he thought the food was bad. I’ve been to better spots that are much cheaper. I don’t mind paying more money for good experience and food. I’d recommend going somewhere else.

Tried the Alfredo and aglio olio pastas and they were really really good. Tiramisu was disappointing. Make a reservation for indoor seating it’s really cute outdoor is meh.

Amazing food. You know the pasta will be great when you cant get enough of the salad. There were 5 of us. We got 2 salads, 3 pastas, and 3 desserts. Enough to share. The bread was delicious too. The vibe was great too. Will definitely coming back.

People are sleeping on this as a great lunch option! The lunch deals are fantastic in the main dining room, but the deli is a real hidden gem for a great sandwich on the east side. Laurel is amazing and makes a fantastic panini!

I got the gnocchi with meatballs and tomato basil sauce and it was so delicious. The atmosphere was cozy and our server was so attentive. I was never without water and the food was prepared so quickly. I definitely recommend.

When staying a single night in Burbank to break up our drive home to the SF Bay area, we looked up local Italian restaurants and found this one. Definitely some of the best food, service, and atmosphere we've ever experienced. Every ingredient was fresh and made every bite a delight. We will attempt to plan future trips with time to stop here for a meal.

La Pergoletta is a great little neighborhood Italian spot that I love because of their freshly made pastas. Make a reservation to get a good table. My only complaint is that the price seems to be a little high depending on the entree. Maybe that’s just the price of going out to eat these days.

La Pergoletta, you've stolen my heart! ❤️ I recently dined here and had an unforgettable experience. The spaghetti and meatballs were absolute perfection – the pasta was cooked al dente, and the meatballs were tender and flavorful. The sauce was rich and savory, complementing the dish beautifully.

But what really put La Pergoletta over the top was the tiramisu. Oh. My. Goodness. 🍰 The ladyfingers were perfectly soaked, and the mascarpone cream was smooth and divine. It was the ideal way to end a fantastic meal.

The service was also exceptional – friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Our server made excellent recommendations and ensured we had a wonderful dining experience.

La Pergoletta's commitment to quality and authenticity shines through in every aspect of their restaurant. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it perfect for a night out with friends or a romantic evening.

I'm already planning my next visit to try more of their delicious dishes. If you're a fan of Italian cuisine, do yourself a favor and head to La Pergoletta. Five stars isn't enough – I'd give it ten stars if I could! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended!
