Il Pastaio · Restaurant · Los Angeles
Drago family handmade pasta on Canon Drive in Beverly Hills.
Il Pastaio has been the Drago family's handmade-pasta room on Canon Drive since 1994. Giacomino, Celestino, and Calogero Drago run it, cooking the family recipes they carried from Galati Mamertino, and the space at 400 North Canon Drive seats around 150 with the warm, lived-in feel of a Sicilian trattoria: exposed brick, wooden beams, and checkered tablecloths.
A recent remodel added The Olive Room, a private nook for 30 built around a 1,400-bottle Italian wine cellar, ideal for a secluded dinner. Out front, a small patio on Canon Drive is made for al fresco people-watching, while the main dining room hums with animated chatter and the occasional strolling musician - the mood slides easily from quick lunch power-meets to lingering late dinners.
The pasta is the point. The Ravioli di Spinaci e Ricotta arrives silky under sage butter, the Spaghetti Arrabbiata comes al dente with San Marzano tomatoes and chili, and the Squid Ink Risotto folds seafood into saffron. Mains reach further: slow-braised Osso Buco over gremolata polenta, whole Grilled Branzino from the wood oven, and breaded Pollo alla Milanese. Tiramisu and Sicilian Cannoli close it out.
Service runs daily from 11:30am to 11pm, until midnight on Friday and Saturday. The Italian wine list pairs intelligently with the food, and the bar keeps a $16 Negroni among the classics.
