Caffe Delfini is one of my faorite spots and it never lets me down. I just have to stop ordering the same thing over and over (I love the branzino and can never get enough of it) but am so happy we ordered the grilled calamari as a starter. Lush and delicious. The service is always top notch, and we always seem to close the place down. A complete delight and one I always look forward to.

The service was fantastic, we mentioned a food allergy and they immediately check everything we ordered to make sure it was not included in what we ordered. The one time that did include the allergen the made without the item.

Our first experience dining out in LA (from Miami) but the most amazing food ever! We had the crispy squash blossoms (10/10), rigatoni with the most delicious vodka sauce and the pork chop (20/10). Cannot recommend trying out Scopa enough!!!
