The server was great. Ambience was great. Beautiful place. The food was just okay. Not really warm and not that tasty. I think they could up their flavor profile. it is such a lovely place and shouldn't be so empty!!

The restaurant and food were great. Our initial waiter was fantastic and attentive. He must have left for the evening because we didn't see him and the other waiters made us feel like they wanted us out just staring at us! The restaurant was empty and I was catching up with friends I hadn't seen in a year. We ordered plenty of food and drinks but felt rushed to leave by the second waiting staff. I did not appreciate feeling like they wanted us out.

It was too loud inside for us to have a conversation so we moved outside. There were cobwebs next to my table and it was dark outside but the umbrellas were left open (and could not be closed) which meant they blocked the overhead lights and there were no candles. So it was very dark. The food was fine, there was nothing wrong with any of it - it just wasn't outstanding. Even our drinks were just meh. The service was wonderful once we were seated outside. Truly excellent service but the food just didn't live up to the reviews or the price.

The reservation isn't working well if you arrive and are told certain empty tables cannot be used then wait 45 minutes to get a table that you supposedly “reserved” ahead of time. Also waiters are slow to take orders, ask what's missing and bring bill. Overall time wasted that could've made the dining experience much more enjoyable..

We had the DineLA menu. The corn gazpacho was wonderful, perfect for summer. Both the branzino and duck could use some more flavors. The chocolate sorbet was delicious! Nice dark chocolate flavor. Our server was excellent, friendly, helpful and attentive without being intrusive. The patio was nice and we very much appreciated the low volume music ...allowing us to have good table conversations without having to raise our voices.

We had not been to Brera in a while and were delighted to dine last night. It always feels like a special occasion there as the building is stunning and with the sunset setting outside it felt like we were on vacation. We love their pizza to set the tone along with two spritzes while we lingered over the menu. We had to restrain ourselves from finishing it to leave room for more food. Everything we ordered was delicious and we lingered reluctant to leave the space. Don't miss this restaurant. Now also doing DineLA. Bellissimo!

Amazing food and drink. Their sommelier is wonderful. She listens to what you say and recommends excellent wines at different price levels. We were there for Dine LA 2024. The branzino was among the best I've ever had. The meal was a bargain, worth every penny. We had all three desserts (it was my husband's bday) and while I'm not usually a big fan of sorbet, these changed my mind. Everything was delicious!

The service and people were amazing. We got the top three things our server recommended and all three of them were not very good. The ravioli tasted undercooked and the sauce only tasted like soy sauce. I feel like it would've tasted better with a different sauce and being cooked a little longer. My friend got a vegetarian pasta and they had walnuts on it and it just threw the whole dish off. Food came out very fast. Service was phenomenal but food did not live up to the standard. Even the drink I was served tasted like black pepper.

An incredible retaurant with a great atmosphere, wonderful service, and delicious food. The fettuccini was delicious, and the tagliatelle and duck pasta were to die for. The Margherita was the best pizza I've yet had. Gelato was incredible.

First time in LA, found on open table and reading reviews helped us pick this place! Wasn't disappointed at all! ALL four of our plates was amazing, great flavor! Great cocktails- dang great service! We will come back here for sure when we come back! As a restaurant owner in Utah, this truly is what you love to see in service and food! Clean and great staff great and amazing food!

Sigh. What do you say when you are moving 3k miles away from your favorite restaurant? We love you guys and we'll miss you. You were a refuge for us during the pandemic and I will never forget Mateo waiting on our table and giving us a small break from the madness. We hope you stay around forever so when we move back you can be our go to spot again. Thanks for all the great food and memories. The Conners Family.

I've never experienced such a horrible dining experience in my life. My team reserved a table for 5 outside last night. Our waiter Carlos C. came off super rude and snarky. Three of our colleagues all have food allergies. One of them my manager is deathly allergic to dairy, nuts, and shellfish/fish. She was very clear to him about her allergies, and he assured us that there would be no cross contamination or those ingredients in what she ordered. He was also very condescending with other questions about other dishes. The food comes and my manager starts to eat and after the 2nd bite her tongue started swell and form bumps, and the back of her throat started to go numb. When we called Carlos over he gaslighted us in saying nothing was in it, and that there was not much he could do. His manager Jennifer (who had a HUGE black eye) came out who also kept denying there was nothing in the sauce and that the chef funny enough also has a food allergy. She took the bottle of wine off of our meal and took my managers dish off. The server Carlos nor the manager Jennifer EVER asked if we needed medical attention during this whole experience... Which is INSANE... We leave in the Uber and on our way back to the hotel our managers symptoms get worse... She was taken to the emergency room, and was given steroids with Epinephrine. She is thankfully okay.... All in all this was such a stressful/scary experience, and I will never dine in this restaurant again. The food was decent not bad, but not worth the crappy staff/management. DO NOT DINE HERE!!!!

This is an upper end restaurant. The cuisine is a delightful modern spin on Italian. Every dish we was carefully presented and thoroughly delicious. The restaurant is open and inviting. We noticed two large families were enjoying the ambiance. Parking is free!
