Amazing service 10/10. Jeanie was an amazing server, she went above and beyond for our table. We attended the Father’s Day brunch and she really made us very special. If you ever visit I really recommend asking for her as your server.

About the restaurant

Marino Ristorante is deeply rooted in Hollywood since the late 1950’s when Ciro (Mario to friends) Marino landed in Hollywood and has ever since had generations of who’s who in the movie, record, art, political and business LA community at his tables. Today it is still family owned and given its warm welcome flavor by the second generation of Marinos, Mario in the dining room and brother Sal in the kitchen.

The decor is modern and comfortable with memorabilia from a 60 year career which all come together to create its appeal. Described by many marrying the quintessential NY Italian in Los Angeles for its history coupled with today’s seasonal menu, highlighting the best locally sourced ingredients and top notch freshest seafood available.

My entree was not warm enough, but it was very tasty. Lulu had us reach for the water we ordered on the tray. Usually the server sets the water on the table so this was different. The

The atmosphere in the back patio is wonderful! From the front, one could easier miss this neighborhood gem. Small and unassuming. Go inside and walk to the back to see the patio, with its strewn hanging lights and quality live music. Our large group of 19 fit easier without disruption for the other patrons. The musician was excellent with music that enhanced the atmosphere rather than forced it a certain direction. The Italian pasta was hearty and delicious. A local favorite!
