" What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome, and the atmosphere was electric. The Bone Marrow Macaroni was divine, providing a rich flavor that paired well with their house wine. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Italian cuisine in LA. Just remember to make a reservation as it gets packed! " (*Curated Review*)

" We recently visited Bestia based on some glowing recommendations and I’m happy to say they lived up to it! The food was fresh and flavorsome. Though the place was packed and fairly noisy, it didn’t deter from our enjoyment. The highlight was the dessert course—it was fantastic and definitely worth trying! I would probably return for another lively evening at this spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Bestia and I can say with confidence that it exceeded them! The food was not only authentic but so beautifully presented. The ambiance felt like an upscale Italian get-together, however, it was a bit too noisy for my liking. Everything from the antipasti to the desserts was crafted with such care. A delightful experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a terrific dinner at Bestia to celebrate my wife’s birthday! The food was outstanding! Each dish we selected was exquisite, with the House-made Ricotta standing out in particular. The service was courteous, if a tad brisk, likely due to the busy dinner rush. We loved the vibe, though it was a bit on the loud side. We couldn’t complain as the food was definitely worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Superb dining experience at Bestia. From start to finish, everything was delicious! Our waitress was wonderful and made some stellar recommendations. The interior has a casual vibe, but it gets noisy when it's crowded—which can be a downside. The pasta and pizza were all high quality, but I think we could have used bigger portion sizes to feel truly satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a splendid dinner at Bestia last week, the flavors were vibrant and the dishes were beautifully plated. We shared the various antipasti which were superb! The service was prompt and our waiter was very friendly. The only downside was the loud music, I couldn't talk at times—so it might not be the best for a quiet romantic dinner. Looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Bestia for the hype and found that it was well-deserved! We started off with the ricotta, which was deliciously creamy. For mains, we wanted to try the pasta. Although the portions were smaller than expected, each bite was a flavor explosion. The atmosphere was bustling and vibrant but perhaps a tad too loud for my taste. All in all, I would highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)
