The food does not have any flavor at all.
Very bland.I ordered the rigatoni with Bolognese sauce and I was very disappointed. The service was average and the ambience was basically like a cafeteria. You're better off with a frozen food dinner from a grocery store which would be a lot cheaper and have more flavor. Therefore, I do not recommend this restaurant at all.
Be the first to ReplyI really wish Yelp had a decimal system.
Not all 4 stars are the same. Not all 5 stars are the same. If we had a decimal system, I would give this place a 4.7 stars. I'm giving this place 5 stars because this place does almost everything right. As you enter this restaurant, there's a pasta maker making fresh pasta, the menu prices are exceptionally cheap for what your getting. I got the Spaghetti Mare (Seafood pasta) for $14.99. For me the portions were perfect, but I don't eat that much. So I can see someone who has a hearty appetite being unsatisfied with the amount of food. My only complaint about my meal is the noodles were a bit on the softer side, I prefer my pasta to be al dente, however, freshly made pasta can't be made al dente (firm) due to the nature of fresh pasta. Only dry pre-packaged pasta can be made al dente, so be warned as you come here.

They claim to make their own pasta, and it does taste like they might, especially the fusilli. It's gotten a little expensive like most places. The pesto and the bolognese sauce are my favorites. Pink sauce is nice too. When they opened they gave out really good Parmesan cheese, but now it's packets. The tiramisu I had once was great too.
Be the first to ReplyThe best pasta and bread around.
The only good solid food spot in LA. The only consistent and non greasy food.

food was good, but i felt really uncomfortable when the cashier was persistently making advances to me and my UNDERAGE friend that was not appropriate for a worker-customer relationship. although we were only in there for about 15 minutes, we immediately left after receiving our food and had to eat someplace else. it was extremely disappointing because the food was amazing despite its experience i now associate it with.

I visited this spot because another USC professor had recommended it to me and said the pasta was great! And she was right. Every time I've had pasta here, the flavors have been unique and delicious and the pasta is very solid. The dishes are simple yet always good. Il Giardino is located in USC Village and has indoor and outdoor seating, as well as a full menu of pasta. There are set dishes or you can build your own. They also have specials often! The service is quick and the clientele is mostly students. I've been here several times and I haven't been disappointed.

Be the first to ReplyFood is pretty good.
I enjoy the bolognese a lot. Needs a lil salt but it's still tasty

Felt like portion was a bit small as well. Service was okay at best. Environment was also nothing special

I always get the penne with pink sauce, and it hits the spot every time. The bread is a fluorescent yellow color which is a little strange, but this is a great spot for a warm bowl of pasta if that's what you're craving.

The chicken with lemon and capers, yum! Especially on the patio on a sunny day for loads of ambience

Customer Service is TERRIBLE and very questionable cleanliness. Have been a long time customer at this location for years now and am still treated by the woman at the front as well as the owner in such a rude manner for absolutely no reason. They will nickel and dime you for almost anything and do not care about their customers. Their lemon infused water jug also tasted like contaminated sink water and when I tried to get free water from the soda fountain instead they stopped me and told me I wasn't allowed. DO NOT COME HERE!!

It's okay, not fantastic though! The atmosphere inside is pretty chaotic. Food wise, portions are solid but the bread on the side isn't great and would not recommend adding chicken (pretty bland and flavorless). Maybe I just need to try a different order!

4.1/5 - No frills pasta bar, but gets it rightGot the bowties with arrabiata sauce, garlic bread, and chicken on top. They get the pasta right here, it's Al dente, it's hot and fresh, the sauces are great. Everything aside from that is lackluster. Chicken is pretty bland and lifeless. Garlic bread is fine but floppy and lacks integrity or depth of flavor. I love this place cause they give good portions and when I just want pasta they deliver. Very solid go to. But you want more, go somewhere else.
Be the first to ReplyThe seafood mare spaghetti isn't the same as it used to be
The seafood mare spaghetti isn't the same as it used to be pre-pandemic. The seafood taste is minimal if not there at all. These are the two stars.The service was horrible. The girl who took my order took three minutes to notice me even though they weren't that busy; she was looking through some digital orders, and it was the cook who noticed how long she was taking to nudge her that I was waiting. I ordered a pellegrino that was not included in the to-go bag. Pre-pandemic, to-go orders would include utensils and a little things of peppers and cheese. None of that was included. Considering you're paying a premium for mid-quality food, these little things would be a norm. I wished I hadn't even tipped them.

I really liked this place! Pasta was made to order and delicious! It was pricey but a big portion. I hope to go back once more before I leave this area.
Be the first to ReplyWhen I have pasta cravings and no time to cook, I come here.
BEST SECRET MENU ITEM HERE = EXTRA SAUCE added to any dish (for free!) Definitely do that so every bite will be well coated and super saucy. They make every order fresh and the pasta is delicious. I usually get the tagliatelle bolognese (very meaty with rich flavor) but today tried the penne gamberi (shrimp) special -- not disappointed! Comes topped with lots of shrimp cooked just right. You can substitute the pasta and add a different sauce to any of the specials. I swapped rotini and added pink sauce and it was super comforting, creamy and flavorful. Also - this team hustles! I came in one day behind what seemed like the entire USC swim team and they pushed out the pasta super fast and still quality. Hope their hard work is recognized and well compensated.
Be the first to ReplyFood was delicious.
Attentive service. Clean store. We come here occasionally when we visit the national history museums. Fight on!!!
Be the first to ReplyNo matter how good the food maybe, if customer service is
No matter how good the food maybe, if customer service is missing, it just makes me say no to the place. Stopped by this morning, craving for spaghetti with bolognese sauce mix with alfredo sauce (sauces they have on the menu) and the cashier this morning told me no we don't do that. I explained i have been there so many times ordering same item and they have prepared it with no problem. I even asked maybe she can check with the chef, and her answer was still no! She added "she will make sure she tells her cashiers that we don't do that kind of request!" No matter how much i craved for it, i just left and not patronized the restaurant.

The young lady who works up front is always super rude, but the food is pretty good. Maybe a little overpriced, but not a bad place to go if you're at the village and craving pasta. Just be ready for some attitude
Be the first to ReplyI came here with a colleague for the first time.
I was excited to try a pasta place near USC.I'll typically get a restaurant's pesto because that is my favorite. Honestly, I was underwhelmed by it. It looks beautiful, but the taste was bland :(I felt like the sauce was very mild - not enough basil and maybe some flavor, like garlic or some salt. I liked how they oust toasted fresh pine nuts on top! I also did not really like the bread neither :/I was pretty disappointed and probably won't get it again. There are definitely other pasta places that are better in the area!
Be the first to ReplyThe service was great.
The young lady at the counter was very pleasant and even a couple of the line cooks spoke and said hello. I ordered to go, pesto with extra chicken made with the curly pasta, I added mushrooms. I love pesto with pine nuts. The presentation was great. I added garlic salt when I got to the office which made it better. I'd return again but will indeed make sure that I check for the extra chicken.. My order was $20, it WOULD of been worth it. I will try again.

Most of all, the food is delicious. Very tasty, from the protein to the pasta, suace, and veggies.

Not given a number for my order, staff who prepared my food did not cover their noses, and when they handed me my meal they did not put it in a bag or show me where utensils were.I expect service, no matter how small the effort or task.
