We didn't feel that they appreciated our business.
Wen't in to Rao's to celebrate my friend's birthday with a group which was clearly noted on the reservation. There was zero acknowledgment of the birthday and we were seated and then asked by the manager very abruptly, "would you
A staple in our family.
We love to go at least once a year since 2021. We love that it's always Christmas theme. It's not uncommon for there to be famous people. From local newscasters to Hollywood directors and famous singers. They usually rent out the back space

My family took me out to dinner last weekend for my 30th birthday at Rao's. I made the reservation online a week before and we traveled an hour to the restaurant. When we arrived, the host informed us that there was an egg recall and they couldn
Came by without reservations on a Monday at opening.
Lots of seating. Friendly service. Were put in a booth with limited space for seating. Had to squeeze in and I consider myself small. Food was delicious.

Coming from NY I've known about the original Rao's my whole life,. I even have a connection with Frankie Pellegrino who's family started and owned Rao's. But I have never ever been able to get a reservation. And I have tried for
Love Rao's! The manager is a little.
..different. But the food is GREAT! The chicken parm hit just right and the parking is decent. Everything was just the right temperature and the food came out very timely. I would definitely visit again!
I'm fond of Rao's but had a disappointing meal last night.
We had a wonderful, personable server. The cocktail from the bar was on point. Love the old New York ambience. I ordered the Short Rib Ragu, which comes in at $30.00. There was barely a whisper of short rib, and the papadelle was overcooked, reducin
The service was excellent.
The ambiance of the place was confusing. The place was decorated for Christmas in June! I believe the GM introduced himself to our table and unfortunately as he was speaking a drop of spit landed on my face, lol, also GROSS. Especially since my fo

I was ready to be blown away. I guess I was but not in a good way. Have been wanting to try Rao's for years. Finally had the opportunity this evening. Our waiter was personable and pleasant. Cannot say the same for the hostess. We decided o
Absolutely enjoyed it.
Tried about 12 items altogether, crab stuffed mushrooms really stood out. Atmosphere, design, hospitality - nothing but praise. We are quite lucky to have a Rao's in LA.
Southern Italian
Rao’s is a long standing staple in West Hollywood serving traditional Southern Italy food, think red sauce and pasta. You are not going to leave saying “that was the greatest meal I’ve ever had” but you are going to say “that was a good mea
Go for the show!
Really enjoyed the food and the service was great. But the real treat is the vibe and the clientele. So much glad handing and regulars. Fun to experience.
I love this place.
They always treat me well coming here. Food is exceptional and delicious. The atmosphere and quality is such a warm welcome. Danny at the bar is a great person!
Growing up in New York I've been to the original Rao's
Growing up in New York I've been to the original Rao's several times. The LA Rao's is excellent. Great service, highly recommend the veal parm. The decor is cool and reminds me of being in New York.

I had heard of the very exclusive Rao's in New York and know of Rao's canned pasta sauce, but didn't know about the Hollywood restaurant until recently. The ambience is classic old-school Italian...feels like you're walking into a restaurant set on o
I enjoy using Rao's pasta sauce like everyone else.
The pasta was enjoyable very similar to the jarred version. The cheesecake was my favorite part. The service was excellent, and the waiter was very attentive. The ambiance was like taking a step into Little Italy in NY.
Exceptional dining experience this evening (5/29/24).
Was solo tonight, visited about an hour earlier than set res, seated in garden. Wonderful outdoor venue. Enjoyed the fresh air, subtle background music and attentive, and professional, yet casual service. Ordered two glasses of vino, complimentary
This was my 3rd trip to Rao's in Los Angeles.
We had a large party, celebrating a graduation. The ambiance was perfect for us, the busy restaurant did not diminish our ability to hold conversations across a round table. The service was terrific, we had enough time to enjoy each course and the

A throwback to a very special meal.
Where restaurants felt like a neighborhood place. Rao's is (apparently) legendary for their spaghetti sauce. Having been in the game since 1896. I had a wonderful time relaxing in its atmosphere. The place is larger from the inside than it looks on t
Never heard of the place until about 6 months ago.
Now that cd been there 4-5 times. Great atmosphere and service was terrific. Has jumped right to the forefront of my favorite Italian restaurants in LA. Maybe my absolute favorite.
Old school NY restaurant from Harlem, red sauce joint.
So I've eaten at their location that they had At Cesar's Palace, but this location is in West Hollywood. On a side street off of Santa Monica Blvd. I love this location outside or inside it's a hip place. So you walk in and you might be welcomed by J

I was looking for a spot to grab dinner last minute and saw that Raos had plenty reservations so Italian it is!!! My rez was for 6:30 but we arrived a few minutes early and got seated right away. The restaurant itself wasn't huge but it did seem to
Everything was amazing! Food and drinks were top notch.
Servers were very attentive and fast. I was surprised (in a good way) to find out the price was very reasonable for a fancy Italian restaurant like this. Would come back.

2.5 stars. Ambiance was great, drinks were good but expensive AF; food not so good at all...got the eggplant parm and ragu. $15 to valet + tip; wouldn't go back but the place was hopping.
Absolutely amazing restaurant.
To start the hostess was so welcoming and I asked for a different booth and she was so nice and cool about it. Changed our booth and kept it open for as long as we needed at the bar. Bar tender Catherine was awesome with making us the drinks we wan
Meatball appetizer is the best ! I highly recommend
Meatball appetizer is the best ! I highly recommend ordering that everything else is very good. The linguine with clams is good but not where I would crave it again type of dish. Milanese salad was good. Tiramisu was good but not as good as mama Ost

MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT
We ordered delivery because we couldnt go in person. The food was delivered by a 3rd party service but was delivered quickly and hot. This is by far my favorite restaurant in LA. We ordered meatballs of course, mozzarella and Chicken Parm. Was deli

We used to wish that we'd one day get one of those notoriously hard-to-get seatings (read: impossible) at Rao's in East Harlem, it hit us: Why not try one closer to home in nearby Hollywood. Well, we finally made our way to the renowned Italian resta

Ambiance was great! The food could have been better yet maybe I didn't order the right dishes. Arrive was excellent. A really fun old Hollywood vibe and experience. Mostly regulars and locals here.
I made a reservation about a month ago.
Very impressive with the quality of food and the upbeat service. It was our first time dining at Rao's and it was magnificent. My family had a wonderful time at the restaurant and we can't wait to come back to town just for the meatballs.

Been coming here a few years now, I guess my upcoming reservation got me excited to write a review. Love the old-school Italian-American vibe and the year-round Christmas decorations. Reminds me what it might have been like to eat at the fictional &q

The owner was present and cared about our experience. Great good old school Hollywood restaurant traditions being carried forward.
The best East Coast Italian in LA
Hip Hip Hoo-RAO's to this stunning Italian eatery in Hollywood. My East Coast friends turned me on to this restaurant a few years back and after my multiple visits, this place is a WINNER! The food is excellent and the staff is always knowledgeable

AppointmentTrader est une plateforme communautaire où les utilisateurs peuvent échanger leurs réservations ou tirer parti de leurs relations personnelles avec Rao's Los Angeles. Les acheteurs peuvent prendre des décisions éclairées grâce aux évaluations automatisées des vendeurs, qui reflètent les transactions passées et la fiabilité.
Chaque annonce sur AppointmentTrader vous montre quel utilisateur l’a soumise et fournit également un historique de cet utilisateur qui indique son niveau d’expérience ainsi que le pourcentage de ses transactions ayant abouti à un remboursement.
Si aucune annonce ne correspond à votre emploi du temps, vous pouvez faire une offre sur votre créneau préféré.
Disons que Peter passe une excellente matinée et décide d’emmener ses trois amis à Rao's Los Angeles à 18h le même jour.
Il consulte le site du restaurant et constate qu’aucune réservation n’est disponible. Il regarde alors la page Rao's Los Angeles sur AppointmentTrader, mais ne trouve aucune annonce d’utilisateur non plus.
C’est là que le système d’enchères communautaire entre en jeu.
Peter peut placer une enchère sur AppointmentTrader, qui servira de récompense à tout membre de la communauté choisissant d’aider à trouver une réservation. AT avertit alors les utilisateurs expérimentés qui pourraient être en mesure d’aider.
Processus étapes par étapes
1.) Définir une récompense (enchère)
* AppointmentTrader utilise des données historiques pour recommander un montant de récompense raisonnable pour obtenir une réservation – disons 100 $.
* Peter souhaite vraiment y aller, alors il augmente l’enchère (ou récompense) à 200 $.
* À ce stade, la réservation n’existe pas encore.
2.) Un membre de la communauté prend l’enchère
* FatherlyCountry16, un utilisateur expérimenté d’AT, a un historique solide de réservations réussies et peu de demandes de remboursement, il reçoit une notification concernant l’enchère de 200 $ de Peter.
* FatherlyCountry16 accepte l’enchère, ce qui signifie qu’il va maintenant tenter d’obtenir la réservation.
* Peter peut désormais poser toutes ses questions à FatherlyCountry16 pendant que ce dernier travaille sur sa demande.
3.) Trouver la réservation
* FatherlyCountry16 utilise maintenant ses relations chez Rao's Los Angeles pour obtenir la table.
* S’il parvient à avoir la table de 18h pour quatre personnes, Peter reçoit une confirmation lui indiquant que la réservation est sécurisée.
* Si FatherlyCountry16 n’arrive pas à obtenir la réservation, l’enchère est remise en jeu pour qu’un autre utilisateur puisse tenter sa chance.
4.) Paiement & Protection
* Une fois la réservation sécurisée, FatherlyCountry16 reçoit la récompense de 200 $ qui est créditée sur le solde AT de FatherlyCountry16, où les utilisateurs gèrent leurs fonds et peuvent retirer leur argent via les options disponibles comme virement bancaire, PayPal ou Zelle.
* Peter peut alors profiter du dîner avec ses amis à Rao's Los Angeles !
* Comme pour toutes les transactions sur AT, les litiges et les frais d’absence sont gérés via le système communautaire de résolution de la plateforme. Les utilisateurs ayant un bon historique sont incités à honorer les enchères, et les membres de la communauté peuvent signaler les problèmes pour maintenir la confiance sur la marketplace.
