Great little spot. Have been pleased with every dish I’ve had. Street parking is fairly convenient if you go at the right time.

Can’t say enough about how great this place is! What a gem! Brunello Trattoria is a lovely family business that takes great care to put out delicious food! They always provide fresh, hot bread when you sit down and you can tell the food is made with love. Came here a few months ago and met the owner who is such a good guy and a character! His kids are both wonderful too. Best of all, the food is fantastic. I hope they stay in business for a long long time because I’ll be back!

I went to dinner with friends in Culver City. The food was divine and the service was exceptional.The owner, Brunello was very gracious. My friends are regulars and could not have picked a better restaurant. I had Branzino, Filet of Mediterranean Sea Bass with a lemon caper sauce, roasted potatoes and asparagus. DIVINE! Their homemade bread is one of their specialties. If you're ever in the LA area and enjoy Italian food, you won't want to miss this gem!

This is an absolute gem in Culver City and is a family-owned business for over 17 years! It’s located just a bit outside of downtown Culver City and there are plenty of parking spaces around the area. This is the perfect place for “you can’t judge a book by it’s cover”. The decors could freshen up a bit, but everything else is top notch! I’m a huge fan of Biance & Etta, and I feel Brunello Trattoria is definitely up there as well. Servers were pleasant and happy. Food came out hot and has that home-cooking taste to them (in a good way, and they told me mom is the main chef). And, make sure you save some room for their dessert...yum!

One of the BEST Italian restaurants in LA that never disappoints! A hidden gem to those who aren't familiar with the area. A family run restaurant with great pizzas, pastas and so many other dishes to choose from.

My sister dined at Brunello Trattoria this past weekend and raved positively about the dining here, so we decided to go have an experience with the rest of the family tonight. It was a wonderful dining experience ! Food was delicious and on point. My favorites were the granchi (deep fried soft shell crab) and the Linguini Pescatore. I preferred the tiramisu and my sister liked the profiteroles (cream puffs). The pasta was cooked perfectly Al dente with the right amount of chewy. We look forward to coming back and trying other dishes! The Birra Moretti is a new favorite beer I discovered here. It’s light like a peroni beer but slightly maltier!

We love Brunello's Trattoria for so many reasons: This is a family owned restaurant and treat you like family. They are committed to make our dining experience superb. The father or daughter or server ask us, " How is the food?". They want to make sure we are happy with it. Everything is fresh, their salads and soups are delish, their pasta and gnocchi are homemade. I love their Pollo Marsala, their risotto, their pizzas ( I love mine with anchovies or their prosciutto and arugula pizzas.) They bring me back to the pizzas I ate in Neapolitan restaurants when I was a young girl or their pastas bring me back to my aunt and uncle's dining room time and again. I feel nostalgic of those times and that amazing food. Now my family and I can enjoy delicious Italian food whenever we want. We are so grateful! Try it and I promise, you won't be disappointed. Buon Appetito!
