   Very bland and mediocre food. It looks like it should be really good. But it’s not. The menu promised scallops wrapped in guanciale, but it was just bacon — which is not the same thing! Similarly, the boar ragu was bland and didn’t taste of boar. Meanwhile, it’s not cheap and the noise level was through the roof! Overall indifferent dining experience!

   Disappointed with Pappardelle . Used to be a favorite. Service mediocre. Never brought Parmesan for pasta. Wife had salmon ravioli special which was way too rich for her taste. Convenient for Disney and Ahmanson.

   Service was not the best. We had to get someone to call our waiter over several times. We really don’t like that we have to keep our dirty silverware after appetizer. We should get fresh silverware with each course. It just makes the place feel cheap when it really isn’t. The food and ambiance is great but it doesn’t feel classy when you have to reuse your silverware.

   Excellent food; accommodating to special dietary needs; outstanding and attentive service; centrally located to the Disney symphony hall and Music Center complex; hard working management team making sure customers are well taken care of.

   We enjoyed a delicious pre-theatre meal on Sunday at Vespaio. Our waitress was outstanding, she listened to our questions about the menu, suggested some good wines choices for us and was attentive without being intrusive. We split a delicious, well prepared baby spinach salad. We also shared a Margherita pizza. The pizza arrived hot and ready to eat. We often eat here before seeing a show at the Ahmanson. We’ll be back!
