“ I cannot say enough good things about Lexi!!! She makes this place the best! My group (3 of us) showed up without a reservation on a UCLA home Basketball night. She and her team made us feel right at home, even with a full house!!! Food was excellent, service was even better! Can't wait to go back!! ”
“ Had my 4 years birthday dinner there she LOVED it!! The waitress that attended was super sweetn ”
“ House of Meatballs is a gem! The prices are very reasonable, and while parking is along the street, we didn't have any issues finding a spot at night. I believe it's free parking after 8pm on weekends as well. It's a small restaurant, so we called ahead to make a reservation for our larger party, but for smaller groups, there's a bartop that's perfect if you don't mind cozying up. They also have outdoor seating, though no one was out there during our visit, most likely due to how cold it was. Our waitress was fantastic--super attentive, making sure our waters were always filled and checking in with us regularly without being overbearing. You're probably asking though, what about the meatballs?! Absolutely delicious! I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying their meatball sub. If you're in the area, this spot is a must-visit! ”
“ Great selection of meatballs: Pork Beef Chicken Surprise - eggplant I enjoyed the beef and pork with spicy red sauce over pasta All three flavors of pasta, sauce and meatballs were in harmony Friendly professional service Small but Nice selection of beer and wine (glass & bottles) Overall a nice local restaurant for Westwood Village It is Westwood so parking is a chore ”
“ Came here with a friend for her birthday lunch. I forgot to ask her name, but the waitress was really sweet. We were in a bit of a rush so we ordered our tiramisu right after our entree came, and she accommodated us quickly. We asked her to wait 5ish minutes, and she then proceeded to bring it out at the perfect time!! Love the food, service, and how the little restaurant looks. It was so cute inside as well! ”
“ Really enjoyed my dinner here. Friendly and attentive service and the food was phenomenal, also loved the decor. I ordered the combo #3 (papparadelle w/ creamy tomato and burrata) and we got a caprese and truffle fries. Everything was delicious and I'll definitely be back! ”
“ To be honest, I've always thought the name was a bit silly and didn't think there would be much there for me to eat a pescatarian, but I'm glad I gave it a try. They were super welcoming and seated us right away on a Saturday night around 7pm (though it got busier later on!). I thought the ambiance was cute and casual, though I could also see this place being more of a "romantic date night" spot for students too. Food-wise, I got the eggplant pappardelle creamy tomato (#3 on the favorite meatball and pasta combos) and really enjoyed it. It was indeed quite creamy and the eggplant "meatballs" were quite tasty. My boyfriend got the meatball sub and enjoyed his as well. Don't sleep on this place if you're nearby, even if you are a pescatarian/vegetarian! ”
“ Great choice for hearty, not heavy food in a relaxed and even romantic room. Feels like you could come here with family, friends, associates, or a date. We tried an app and a couple pastas and felt well taken care of and satisfied. The Fritto Misto or Calamari is a classic, of course. Happily it's prepared to order and delicious. 'Lightly battered and served with marinara' is accurate - and we really enjoyed the marinara, too. It's a good portion, perfect to share. I was very interested in trying their namesake, the Meatballs. Tried the three different meatballs: The beef, the pork, and the eggplant. The eggplant was enjoyable, akin to a falafel in texture. Moist in the middle. The pork was also good, not overpowering by any means. The beef, to me, lacked flavor. I think a combo of the beef and pork would be great. Or, if the beef simply had more seasoning, it would be a winner, too. The texture was good, just moist enough. Just not enough of a flavor. I doubled-down with my flavor exploration as the sauce I chose happened to be the Arrabiata. My companion ordered the chicken Alfredo, and loved it. I tasted it, too, and liked it. Super creamy, of course. The chicken was tender, the tagliatelle perfectly cooked. Loved our server. She was helpful and we appreciated her initiative and followthrough. Looking forward to a return visit to try some other things --- maybe Happy Hour, maybe Dessert. ”
