- EaterJanuary 28, 2013This small, smartly designed eatery is described by management as a "modern pastaria," serving creative, seasonal Cali-Italian plates alongside boutique wine and craft beer. [Eater 38 Member]
João PauloJuly 13, 2015Great service and food and drinks are amazing! I went with my family, and we ended up asking for individual plates that could be split between the whole family, so everyone had a taste of everything.- EaterOctober 30, 2013Consider the poached eggs with green chorizo fondu on pan con tomato or simple sunny side eggs with kale pesto, crispy russets, Brussels sprouts & caramelized onions.
Los Angeles TimesJune 7, 2013Specialty: pasta, handmade, whole-wheat rigatoni more or less in the style of cacio e pepe, cooked extremely al dente and tossed with cheese and a punishing handful of black pepper. Read more
Sean BesserMarch 7, 2013A new fav Westside place. They call themselves a modern pastaria, but it is much more than that w/ lots of great shared plates. LOVE the crispy burata!!! The cauliflower t-bone & others are great too.
Kelly BoneDecember 21, 2013The vegetarian friendly Cauliflower T-Bone is my favorite! You can request it plated as vegan even thought the menu says no modifications ;)
the ricotta pancake is unreal. the pancake is moist and fluffy, and the toppings are rich and amazing. order one for the table and share!
- AshleyDecember 15, 2012Brunch! The wild mushroom frittata, poached eggs w/ ricotta & honey, and Dutch pancake (w/ lemon curd!) are all delicious. Definitely try "The Elder"- elderflower syrup, cochi americano, OJ & prosecco
All the vegetarian pastas are full of flavor and seasonal ingredients. The sunchoke burrata ravioli with crispy sage is fantastic if you see it in the menu.- Los Angeles TimesAugust 3, 2014Superba serves what you might call abstracted Italian, incorporating tastes and textures associated with Italian cooking into dishes that would be unrecognizable in Rome.

Tim WilsbachSeptember 19, 2013This place was awesome. You generally need a reservation to get a private table, as most of them are communal, but it worked out fine. Plus, the food was so amazing we didn't even notice.
Ben K.July 1, 2013Super cool spot, especially when it's open to the outside. Fried chicken is great as well as the uni and crab spaghettini. Pasta Carbonara stole the show though.
Eugene NgaiAugust 19, 2013Recommend the kale salad, fried chicken, and the cauliflower. If they have the BLT-E sandwich for brunch, it's very good.
ChenyuOctober 15, 2015Sitting outside has a nice breeze! Small plates are great! Kale salad, rainbow carrot , seared scallop, mushroom all good. Fried chicken too- Los Angeles TimesAugust 3, 2014Chef Jason Neroni's style could be called "abstracted Italian," which is to say that it incorporates tastes and textures associated with Italian cooking without actually duplicating an Italian dish.

- Los Angeles TimesAugust 3, 2014The doughy gnocchi would probably not pass muster at a trattoria, but the sweetish toss with hazelnuts and broccoli stems is likable, what a gifted young cook might make for staff dinner. Read more
One of my favorite in neighborhood. Home made pasta, u can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Chef Jason is amazing guy!!!!
Phil BrockFebruary 10, 2013Great brunch, good service. Cool waiters and an attractive blond chef cooking fantastic eggs. The salsa and the apple butter rock!- Los Angeles TimesAugust 3, 2014Superba Snack Bar is set up like a shoe box that's cut open on one side. It brings in the ocean breezes and the Venice vibe.

Rachel S.August 6, 2012Get the fried chicken... It will change your life :) the chorizo meatballs are great too.
Mariana AcuñaJanuary 24, 2013Get here early, the sour is frothy, creamy and luxurious! Everything is fantastic!
The Brussel sprouts are back and the pastas are the bomb! The flank steak with bone marrow is incredible.
Daily specials of the menu and a wine list that is rotating with great wines. Food is amazing and the vibe matches
Nick BurdMarch 23, 2015It's all about the pasta, but everything here is great. One of the best dinner spots in L.A.
Best seat in the house is at the bar. You can watch what everyone's ordering and chat with the chef!
Jess BarronOctober 14, 2012Burrata with fresh figs an Basil is my favorite dish! It's like eating a cloud!
Angel Singleton-WestMay 7, 2015Nice variety of vegetarian options. Try the black kale or the crispy brussels sprouts.
Kayla JohnsonApril 19, 2015Great date spot. Amazing food and service. Loved everything about my experience!
Tyler GalpinDecember 6, 2014Always a great date spot. Small, manageable portions (sharing plates), friendly staff.
Maya BaratzApril 29, 2013The "snack" tasting menu is basically everything on the menu. Delicious and over the top.
Tasting TableAugust 9, 2012Try cauliflower agnolotti sauced with pig's cheeks, five spice, smoked pine nuts and a shot of amaro: Read more
Los AngelesSeptember 6, 2013Sit by the open kitchen with counter seating that puts you right next to the action.
Michael GalpertOctober 7, 2014Surprisingly the worst meal I've had in a really long time: I got the fig and burrata on toast. The Brussels sprouts plate. The scallops. The octopus panna cotta. Don't get any of them
Amelia LukimanMarch 12, 2013Try the sunny side eggs over short rib hash. Tasty way to start your day!
Sit at the counter to watch the excellent chef in action and of course try the superb food!
Kevin ReeversJanuary 6, 2015Really creative dishes. The vegetarian dishes match those of the meat-focused dishes.
Tara DApril 16, 2013The pasta dishes are meals in themselves so don't over-order. The gnocchi is the best I've ever had.
Rosalie SangenittoMarch 11, 2013Short rib ravioli. Everything I tasted was great, everything I didn't taste sounded great.
Gaia DempseyNovember 10, 2013The El Porto cocktail is delicious. With the food you can't really go wrong.
Nicole LingnerAugust 31, 2013Meh, not exactly my taste (carbonara: too salty & peppery, fried chicken: not my flavor, but my husband liked it.) I'll be back to try again though, i really want to like this place...
