Fritto Misto - Santa Monica (CA)

5 /5 Rachel Russell-Clark: WOW WOW WOW. I just got back from Italy and was having severe fomo, this is the first place I went. It was our first time here and we were impressed!!! The host was so wonderful, our server Carlos, honestly everyone was a vibe! You can tell why this place has been open for 36 years. The food was beyond delicious as you can see from our empty plate club pic. To top it off, they brought us a complimentary desert, I can’t wait to come back on another date night!

4 /5 Carrie: Pasta was super nice. We ordered the garlic shrimp black pasta and calamari! However, the main came before the appetiser which is a bit unexpected. But the overall experience is really nice and staff is attentive as well!

1 /5 Sneha Jain: I ordered from this place through Uber Eats because there was a buy-one-get-one offer on the wild basil ravioli, along with a lemon bar with shortbread crust. Unfortunately, the experience was really disappointing. In the picture, you can clearly see like the sauce wasn’t even sticking to the ravioli. Half I don’t know how they cooked it. The ravioli was not enjoyable at all. The filling tasted very off, and while the sauce itself was fine, the pasta was a major issue. The ravioli didn’t seem properly made. I couldn’t finish it, and to make matters worse, my stomach hurt the next day, which made the experience even more frustrating. The lemon bar was also underwhelming and didn’t live up to expectations. Overall, none of the items worked for me.

5 /5 The Breakfast King: Just a solid neighborhood Italian spot. Been coming here for years and have never had a bad plate. Great pasta, friendly staff, and huge portions. NEVER sleep on the garlic knots

5 /5 YH: We went for lunch yesterday. The server was very helpful in making choices. We went with the calamari, garlic shrimp on sqiid ink pasta in a cream sauce, and jumbo scallops in a creamy spinach spaghetti. Let me tell you the flavors were unlike anything I have ever had before, I wish I had words to describe the taste of the said ok pasta. There was something very distinct in the flavor of the squid ink pasta, I could going back to it but couldnt figure out what it was. The scallops were truly amazing and the calamari was fried to perfection, every bite was crispy yet so soft and tender on the inside. They use fresh seafood and not frozen like some other places and you can taste the differences. You can find street parking on the street but you have to pay the meter. The prices are a little high for pasta but for the quality of their dishes, I would say they are spot on. I would not hesitate to eturn in the future.
