   Food was excellent, service was fair but adequate. Wine is really expensive. $22 per glass?

   Carasau is my go-to restaurant in downtown Culver. I truly feel it is a hidden gem. It's not your typical run-of-the-mill italian spot. You'll find different kinds of dishes given the region they represent. This time I tried their truffle rigantoni alfredo, it was tremendous, as every other dish I've tried is. Carasau was really smart when they got the lot nextdoor for parking. Now it is easy to get in and out without dealing with the headache of downtown CC traffic.

   Fantastic little gem in Culver City! I’m Italian from the north and this was my first time having Sardinian food. Loved it! Service was excellent. Was not familiar with Sardinian wines and we had perfect wines paired with our dishes. Squid ink pasta and potato raviolis with pesto and red sauce…..really enjoyed the pesto. Definitely run, don’t walk over to Carasau.

   Very delicious food- from the Sardinia region of Italy so a little different. Plus regional wines. Our dishes were served promptly and were beautiful, generous portions, hot and tasty. We will return!

   Pizza was an overcooked and wayy too crispy. Service was a bit slow as I had to ask 3 different people for a dessert menu and the place was not full.

   Some of the best Italian food you'll have in LA. We had the beet fettuccine pesto pasta and a salmon pasta. Both were delicious. They also have a beautiful outdoor patio.

   This was our second time at Carasau and I loved the shrimp linguini so much that I had to order it again! This time I was with 5 others who had different dishes and everybody was happy!How unusual is that? We also shared a small cheese pizza and I thought the flavor was great-one of the best I’ve had in recent memory. Definitely a lovely place with delicious food and excellent service. Our waitress was really trying to help out a vegan friend and very accommodating. We were a Happy group and the restaurant was packed on a Tuesday.

    The food was great overall and so was the service. We asked for wine pairings with our dishes and our waiter gave spot on recommendations. The inferno spicy pizza was great and actually spicy! Highlight of our meal, we were pleasantly caught off guard. The Malloreddus pasta was underwhelming but still okay. The pollo al mattone was very tasty. The tiramisu was good too. Would come again if I’m in the area and craving Italian!
