Great meal - meatballs and the focaccia are unbelievable. Spicy fusilli was great. The pizza sauce /crust are perfect. Pro tip - Don't sit at the left counter seat - ppl crowd behind you.

I fully recommend getting several dishes & sharing everything! A pizza is a must. The buttered brown sugar pasta is to die for! Don't miss dessert! I loved the bread pudding and soft serve ice cream.

Get the spicy fusilli. Then do it again next week and every week thereafter

Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo’s eponymous restaurant comes with housemade bucatini cacio e pepe and down-home spaghetti with six hour bolognese that is served with banging hip hop tunes. Read more

this place is straight fire. spicy fusilli and the rainbow cookies are absolutely perfect! (i also saw tyler the creator here and nearly had a heart attack)

Of the best Italian places I have been. Outstanding food and service + style. Waiters, hosts and sommelier from Helen's wines killed it. Meatballs, Spaghetti 6H Bolognese, LA woman pizza & wines!

Good breakfast. Get the Nutella French Toast, Soft Scrambled Eggs and Apple Babka!
Laura JonesAugust 15, 2015
This is my absolute favorite restaurant in L.A. Everything served explodes with flavor, and all flavor are meant to be there. Nothing is superfluous. Try the spicy fusilli and baby broccoli!
Natalie GuerraFebruary 10, 2016
Meatballs, wine, la girl pizza and literally any pasta. It's all good. Make sure to make a reservation.! This place is great for dates! Anywhere u seat is awesome, love the bar!

It's got its own custom-curated wine boutique. The booths are sleek plywood. And the food is newfangled Italian, like thin-crust pizzas (even flower-topped ones) and pistachio cannoli. Read more

Went for lunch & the pizza. Tried the "Little Nats" & "Sonny's Favorite". Both were very good. But was blown away by the meatballs which were the best I have had in a long time. Also the fried onions

Great homemade sauces and grandma style pasta ❤️. The ricotta ravioli with sage was super delicate and tasty. The wine list is full of natural wines (on the expensive side, though).

While things like breakfast pizza show up on the menu, find their version of avocado toast, granola, and other various Italian-American-slanted sweets on the morning bill of fare. Read more

Sit at the bar, order gem lettuce salad and the meatballs, watch your food being crafted, order a bomboloni for dessert and an espresso, thank me after!
Thomas ColtonMay 22, 2015
If you're in a small party, I recommend sitting at the side bar and watching the magic happen behind the scenes. Bread cooked over a wood fired grill is beyond compare.
Emily WilsonMarch 12, 2016
The arugula salad with parm is great to start with. The LA Woman pizza and the spicy fusilli pasta are absolute musts.
AmateurConciergeJuly 9, 2021
Crowd pleasing pizza, pasta, salads and apparently meats. Ingredient quality is very good. Fusilli alla vodka was a highlight. As was the produce
jennifer hanJuly 6, 2015
everything on the menu! i am especially fond of the 8-hour bolognese and the cornmeal fried spring onions, which should be mandatory for every table. do it right, wear your stretchy pants here.
Rob WilsonMarch 10, 2017
The thing about Jon & Vinny's is that every item on the menu is delicious and clearly prepared with tremendous care and heart. The price point also makes sense! Los Angeles needs mor J&V!
Aline VelterFebruary 26, 2023
The best bruschetta I’ve ever had. And everything else we order was exceptional. The quality of the ingredients was the best.
AT WawaSeptember 8, 2016
The mushroom polenta was good but this dish takes the cake! The corn agnolotti with brown butter. It's kinda sweet but was so good!
Anthony SextonJune 30, 2018
The pizzas here are seriously well made! Amazing base and just the right amount of topping. Pasta is pretty good too but it’s up against seriously good pizza...
LinhdaJuly 6, 2015
For brunch, yes to the bread pudding and pancakes. Breakfast pizza was amazing but I need to come back for dinner pizza with red sauce. Absolutely no crowds at 9 or 10am!
Kassi NopratvarakornAugust 13, 2018
Everything on the menu is incredible but if there’s any doubt, the white lightning pizza and fusilli with spicy vodka sauce are crowd favorites every time.

Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo’s eponymous restaurant is like nostalgic red sauce joints with Fairfax flair. Read more

Outstanding meatball and cacio e pepe rigatoni. Make reservations or come at non-peak hours.

With composed pastas, salads, and some fine pizzas, it's the kind of comfort food that everyone can get behind. Read more
Danny NathanDecember 11, 2016
Everything we had was delicious. Beware, they don't time dishes at all but rather plop them on the table@in quick succession. Not a huge deal but it does make the meal feel rushed.
Kevin O'NeillApril 22, 2017
Holy moly if dinner is anything like brunch this place is pretty close to heaven. Best scrambled eggs ever.
AT WawaSeptember 8, 2016
The Burrata & pears was one the best I had in my life! The pizza was good too very thin crust

I loved the Ham & Yeezy and the spicy fusilli
Caitlin TaylorSeptember 20, 2017
Really good pizza and pasta, and pretty interior. Better to make a reservation because they get picked

Incredible every time. The little gem salad, agnolotti and bolognese were standouts alongside the pizzas- you can't go wrong.
ReemAugust 6, 2019
Yumm!! I tried the tomato and basil spaghetti and the basil pasta they were both very good 😍 unfortunately the mozzarella sticks were sold out
Mike CaputoJanuary 27, 2020
The Gem Salad with Calabrian Chili Dressing and Rigatoni Bolognese are true perfection.
Betty Kuo BrintonSeptember 29, 2017
Calamari and sauce were amazing... superb wine list with different wines. Pasta is tasty

Like everyone says- order the Spicy fusilli.
AT WawaSeptember 8, 2016
The Nutella bombilini wasn't very good. The dough was amazing but the filling was like a custard Nutella which wasn't very tasty next time I'll try the vanilla bean
Yousef AlsaifOctober 8, 2021
The BEST. My favorite dishes: Gem Lettuce, Eggplant Parmesan, La Women Pizza, Ricotta Ravioli, Spicy Fusilli.
Ben K.December 24, 2015
Another hit from the Animal guys. Try the LA Girl pizza with burrata and the super fat meatballs.
Abu Aya KDJuly 21, 2016
Great italian - get the pizzas and thr linguine olio
Leah GMarch 7, 2020
Excellent pastas and awesome service. Be sure to visit the tiny wine shop in the back of the restaurant!

The meatballs and garlic bread are a top five dish in LA right now. Outside of that, pizza, pasta, and well, the whole menu?! Read more

Avocado bruschetta was so good. Too much Parmesan cheese but it was so good.
Matt BernsteinAugust 5, 2015
So many good things here and the staff was so friendly. Definitely try the LA Woman pizza and the meatballs!

Fantastic pizzas and pastas with wonderful selection of natural wines. Top 5 in la

Quite possibly one of the best restaurants in LA. Not a single thing on the menu is less than spectacular
Melody ScottJanuary 10, 2021
The wait was LLLOOONNNGG. But the pizza was really great. Had the Roman pizza. Would definitely recommend.
AT WawaSeptember 8, 2016
Forgot the name but this salad was to die for! They have a new dish with peppers but that wasn't very tasty it was bland
Caitlin TaylorSeptember 20, 2017
Really really good pizza and pasta - the crust is 👌🏽
