“ One of the best Italian restaurants in LA. Authentic Italian cuisine, great location steps away from the beach in Marina Del Rey. Wonderful service, vibe and menu. Now open early for breakfast! ”
“ I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Casa 12 Ristorante during my visit to Westside LA, and it was an unforgettable experience! This place radiates authentic Italian charm, from the warm, inviting atmosphere to the incredible dishes served. Service and food was 5 stars. The food was simply amazing—every bite felt like a trip to Italy. The flavors were rich, fresh, and so well-balanced. To top it all off, the vibes were unmatched. The restaurant has a cozy yet vibrant ambiance, and we were lucky enough to enjoy some live music during our visit. If you’re in Westside LA, Casa 12 Ristorante is a must-visit! I’m so glad I stumbled upon this gem and can’t wait to return on my next trip. ”
“ Not so hidden hidden gem. The location makes you think it would be a tourist trap, but the food is actually top notch and can compete with any restaurant in Venice. Awesome vibe, live music on Sunday evenings (at least the last time I was there). Super cute and romantic with a neighborhood local feel. Highly recommend! ”
“ Food was exceptional, we had the crostini and then the lobster ravioli and fungi pasta, both were so tasty, best meal we had in LA by far. The service was great and where we sat outside was gorgeous, perfect for people watching. ”
“ We came for my daughter’s birthday and it was the best meal in LA! Its highly unusual to get the great location AND great food but Casa 12 delivers every time! We all loved our dishes so much we shared them all. Delicious parpadelle, rib eye, ravioli, apps, deserts, wine, great food & service! My favorite ! ”
“ ****UPDATED REVIEW*** The owner, Manuel, went out of his way to find me on social media and personally reach out to apologize for the server/gratuity issue we experienced. He made it clear that it was not their standard policy, took full responsibility, and was genuinely apologetic. He offered to refund our entire drink bill and generously provided a gift card so we could come back for a better experience. How an owner handles issues says a lot about a business, and in this case, it left a strong impression. Manuel’s response was sincere and professional, and I truly appreciate the effort. I look forward to returning for dinner and drinks in the future. PREVIOUS REVIEW: A group of 6 of us asked if we could come in for just a drink for a friend’s birthday. It was the end of the night so they had a lot of open tables and said we could sit at a 6 top. We each had one drink and got home to find that they had added a “large party” auto gratuity of 20% (which as someone who has worked in the service industry is very indulgent to add to a party under 8, let alone that we didn’t eat) and then also did not mention they added it to our bill and let my friend add another 20% tip. Our fault for not catching the original auto added tip. But extremely shady business to be auto grat-ing a party of 6 just having a drink and not say anything. The server made 40 off 6 people having one drink. ”
“ Ambiance, food and service all exceeded expectations here. Bookending my time in LA here was an excellent choice. Thank you for the hospitality! For those considering, you won't be sorry for spending time at a meal at Casa 12. ”
