    It has a very good vibe, music a little to high but I think is too much expensive for the food. I tried one of the pastas and it was amazing but it wasn’t enough food.

    Unreal menu and food!!We went last night and had the best dinner. We had:- Bread and some cheese (bread was so fresh, and the cheeses amazing!)- Smoked Trout appetizer (with salanova and apple) – AMAZING!- Wagyu Beef Skewers – ALSO AMAZING!!!- Amazing salad with blue cheese – great way to wrap up!!We had reservations, but wound up in the bar at a community table. Very fun evening!!

    Don’t waste your time on this restaurant! It’s overrated w/ small servings and high prices, food was just ok , service slow and wine selection the worst I’ve seen anywhere! NO California wines and very measly pours on the marginal selection of wines by glass!

    Sure was Tasty. Finally got in here after 2 yrs of trying. Not disappointed either! The service was outstanding, the interior way cool. Great LA restaurant scene. We were still a bit full from earlier lunch next door at Gjelina so we started with the duckliver pate and gnudi. Delicious. Tried a pasta (gigli with squash blossoms) that was quite good. Then dessert. I am a self-professed panna cotta expert and their panna cotta was at the top of any I have every had, period! The chocolate juniper cake with passion fruit sorbet will make you cry. These desserts are not to be missed!

    The orange juice is phenomenal.

    Overrated!. Ate here earlier this week and the food was just okay. I think the Tasting Kitchen is very overrated.

    Outstanding food, Great Wine List. Who expected this in Venice Beach? Wonderful upscale, yet casual, atmosphere. Service was super friendly. Now, for the menu. What a great compilation of dishes. You can spend as much or as little as you want and I am confident the quality would be same across the board. The menu felt a little like I was in the Piedmont Region of Italy with a wonderful selection of unique homemade pasta dishes as well as beef, seafood, chicken, and lamb entrees. We started the meal with a selection of three cheeses and a wonderful bottle of Barbaresco. Followed this with the Scallop appetizer (sauteed in Limoncello and Fava Beans!) which was cooked to perfection and just enough Limoncello to create flavor without feeling as though you were sucking on a lemon. No easy task! We followed this with pasta main dishes of Tagliatelle with Pork and Peaches and also a Fennel Sausage Pasta. Both were excellently prepared with homemade fresh pasta. The Tagliatelle was simply sensational as the peaches had been completely cooked down to oblivion, except the faint taste, which when combined with the Pork was unforgettable. We completed the meal with a beautiful Piemonte desert wine and fresh Ricotta Cheesecake served with fresh peaches. Of particular note is the wine list. Not your ordinary list but rather a wonderful selection of unique wines from some of the most famous regions of Europe. Kudos to The Tasting Kitchen. I look forward to seeing you again and again on my trips to Los Angeles.
