Description:
This hugely successful, value-priced trattoria is located on a busy corner in the shopping district of Beverly Hills. All day long, Il Pastaio's fans take a break from work or shopping and converse over glasses of chianti and plates of oh-so-authentic pasta. You'll swoon over the arancini, breaded rice cones filled with mozzarella cheese and peas, then fried crispy brown (highly addictive); the pumpkin tortelloni in a light sage-and-cream sauce; the arrabbiata, a simple penne pasta dish in a fantastic spicy tomato-and-garlic sauce; and for dessert, the panna cotta (the silkiest in Southern California). There's almost always a wait -- and not much room to wait in -- but by meal's end it always seems worth it.
