Just blown away. The pasta tastes so amazing, the sauces are incredible. Very worth the price. Expect $25$ per person. Their cheesecake takes like a wonderful strawberry shortcake. 10/10 would definitely come back. Top knotch service as well.
Michelin starred Italian restaurant in LA downtown. Great selection of wines, drinks and pastas. We ordered two different pastas and they both were crazy good. Also their flan was great!

To say the least this place is phenomenal. I haven't had authentic Italian food since I was in Italy over five years ago. The staff were awesome, polite, and kindly ignored my blonde moment when I asked for something that was already on the table. The food is delicious. Filling and rich with flavor, the noodles were done perfectly, and the garlic bread was amazing; garlic in every bite. I'm so happy to have found a restaurant that puts care into their food. The venue is cute on the outside and very rustic within, made me think of a place I'd eaten hidden away in the streets of Florence. 10/10 will absolutely be recommending to everyone I know.

This is authentic Italy in downtown Los Angeles. It is like I entered a passageway to Italy when I walked into the restaurant! I had the lasagna and it was amazing. My wife had the spinach and ricotta tortellini and I couldn’t decide which was better. Great service, great drinks, relaxed and comfortable atmosphere and reasonable prices. It’s a complete win!

I always try a new restaurant (or three) during my birthday week. Maccheroni Republic was one for this year. Rated high on Trip Advisor, number 7 in all of LA. After my dinner, I totally agree! The food is DELICIOUS! service is excellent, and the atmosphere is nice. The shrimp appetizer was incredible, Ceaser salad well prepared, and the pasta was amazing!!! The pasta tasted like something I would get back home. It took me back to Italy!
I've driven by this restaurant a hundred times since they started in business, and I never noticed it. I will definitely be back! Come and try this unassuming, but amazing place!!!
Update: my third visit to this restaurant. Still as great as the first time! Very consistent, excellent food and attentive service. Still takes me back to Italy!!!

The service and experience was amazing. The restaurant has a very good atmosphere. We were greeted by the manager who was very attentive and always made sure to check on us. He helps his workers instead of sitting in the back. It has a family vibe. This was the best experience we have had in a while. Definitely will come back

Fresh handmade pasta in different textures and flavors. Good wine selection.
The gnocchi here are extremely soft and pillow-y. Finally!
We all thought we were too "adult" to get the mac 'n cheese so we almost didn't get it. That would have been a huge regret in my life because this is the star dish! Get it!
Make sure you get the Panna Cotta for dessert...please! It's super creamy and has a chocolate/coffee flavor that is to die for.
Thank you Maccheroni Republic for your establishment!

It was really good Italian restaurant which i recommend it for sure. Home made pasta with a reasonable price and good taste. it has a nice outside table which we used and nice staffs. they bring you bread and you have olive oil and balsamic on the table. We ordered Pappardelle Alfredo Con Pollo and Lasagna both were pretty good. the restroom wasn't perfect. But I will recommend this place and you get pretty good pastas with good price.

Amazing pasta! Hands down, the best pasta I’ve tried in a long time. My favorite was Pasta Alfredo, so good that we ended up ordering it twice. Other pasta that I’d recommend: tortellini, rigatoni, lasagna and the one with sea food. The ambience is very relaxing, It feels like you’re in a backyard. The service could have been better, I felt like they didn’t pay that much attention. The prices are affordable. Either way, I’d definitely recommend this place if you want to eat good pasta!
