C&O Trattoria

My girlfriend's family owned an Italian eatery so she doesn't let me get Italian out a lot. This is one of the few places she will go. Mostly I like the meat only ravioli being lactose intolerant. The portions are huge so be warned. But

our waitress was great. she checked back on us often, got our order right and always had a smile on even though we were a huge party that all came at different times. thank you!

This is an AMAZING Italian restaurant. The portions are large and the food is full of flavor. A bit expensive but well worth it. Great location and service.

This place is a good after work date place. The prices are good for comfort food, although I would say the the menu is pretty small. The ambiance is nice.

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed this place. The outdoor patio had a relaxing Mediterranean feel and the food was great.

It is so nice. It is not a place that is hot on the scene so you can just go and eat. it is hidden away so it is mostly people who live in the area.

I loved this restaurant. I'm so glad that I went. I had lunch here and was very pleased w/ the food and service.

Greek Salad and Crab Ravioli... my fav! The best part is that you get to bring your own wine and enjoy the views of sunset while you sit back and relax. Its a great place for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The only place in town where i feel like I'm at home. The staff not only knows my name, but even asks about my kids! Excellent food! Amazing drinks! Highly recommended,,,

Been going to this restaurant more then 10 years and never have I been disappointed. The owner always welcomes his customers with smiles and feeds them great food! If you want some good authentic Italian food, then look no further!

The service was great and the waiters were very attentive. I went for a large party of 25 and I really enjoyed myself. The food was pretty tasty and nice and pippin hot. I loved the bread they served OMG!!! I could eat that all day lol I

I am amazed that anyone can offer such great service, food quality, and generous portions at reasonable prices.
Even the table chianti is superb!

i love this place..perfect atmosphere; just a few footsteps to the beach/venice beach walk..garlic knots are served nice and hot nonstop..the sangria is delicious and the portion of food is ridiculous..you can order half or whole orders. I

I've never had a bad experience at C&Os. The food is great (garlic rolls are SO GOOD). Big portions, all pastas are really good.

Getting seated is a little confusing sometimes. There's two locations next to each other, and you never

I love C&O's! It's great for large groups (I had my graduation dinner here & my friend had her wedding rehersal dinner here), portions are huge, garlic rolls are amazing, the wine by the glass is awesome and I always leave with leftovers.

This place is rude. The make a big deal about large parties. Said they would seat us if we ordered fast. Was practically pushed out the door. Not a good place to go to relax. The food is not so great as well. It's definitely not

We were there with 20 people for a birthday party and we were told we had to order right away and rush thru our dinner. Not very enjoyable.

Sometimes, you're just in the mood for a nice dinner atmosphere. C&O provides that. It's the perfect place for a warm evening dinner by the beach.

Usually, the only thing holding me back from trekking to C&O for dinner is the fact that I

Hmmm... I think I had the fettuccine last time I was here. I really can't remember because I was busy stuffing my face with the delicious garlic rolls. I think I ate about half a dozen in all!\r
I love this place, and have been here a

For years, C & O has been the tourist trap that locals can't help but love. Italian singing in the garden patio, glorious toasts of cheap wine, decent food made delicious by the setting. Not having been since before the holidays, I looked

My friends have been raving about this place ("you've got to try the garlic rolls!") so I went with them one day. I love a garlic roll as much as the next person, but these garlic rolls were not good. Stale and unappetizing. Everyone

Be prepared to jump through some hoops if you have a large party. Parties over 15 people require a pre fixed menu. For around $25 per person (includes tax) they get a choice of 2 pastas, a salad and a chicken breast or 1 meatball. The

This is honestly my favorite restaurant up until now. It's where I take everyone that comes visit me in Socal. The service is great, the patio seating is cozy, the garlic rolls are AWESOME ( I even take some home with me at the end of

Really cool place that is definitely worth the wait, which you can usually avoid if you call earlier that day. Has a really nice, hole in the wall kind of feel. Definitely offers solid, authentic Italian with jars of wine and barrel wine

Where else do the waiters & hosts sing and clink their wine glasses in delight with their patrons swarming the outdoor patio? The trattoria is very festive and fun and the menu offers endless options of traditional Italian dishes- plus the

Having moved to Los Angeles from the East Coast, I was one that some would call a "food snob". When my new L.A. friends decided that it was time for me to try C & O Trattoria, I was doubtful that the restaurant would meet my lofty

Upon first moving to Los Angeles, I was told the best place to find Italian food was at a local place in Marina Del Rey. I drove 40 minutes in crazy traffic to get to this "gem," and brought multiple friends. As we entered the front door,

You feel like you're in a busy Italian city in this place. The wine is charged by how much you drink and the food is amazing. We love to meet firends here, as kids are very welcome. Bring your appetite because you're sure to want to eat until you can't eat anymore.

The ambiance is nice enough. The food palatable. But they really screw you when the bill arrives. They misrepresented the pricing and denied any wrongdoing when challenged. In the end, our party didn't want to haggle or deal with the

if you love pasta, not carb-conscious at all, & don't mind putting on a little weight, you should definitely come here. as soon as they seat you, they give you endless garlic rolls, 1st of all. then they wow you w/ their vast menu, which

C&O Trattoria has the best ambience I have seen in awhile. The restaurant also has amazingly authentic Italian food and really nice and attentive wait staff. Be prepared for a long wait BUT get excited for the wait because the servers will bring around C&O??s famous garlic bread balls to appease your tummy??s while others finally forfeit their table. Also, there is a Koi pond and fountain in the courtyard. So basically, guys, if you want to get some action take your lady or any lady in general to this place.

The owner of the restaurant is Bob (Robert) Singer, and gives a bad name to all the rest of the chosen people by being as cheap as the stereotype preaches...... re-using old food and hounding his staff in all aspects of the business. He

C&O is not on the cutting edge of cuisine. C&O is not fine dining. C&O confuses the hell out of people by having two locations on the same street (0.5 mile apart). C&O doesn't offer anything that the competition doesn't. So, why am I

Instead of a basket of bread they serve these little, warm garlic rolls that are amazing. If you ask, they'll even bring you a little dish of freshly grated parmesan cheese to dip them in. I could be perfectly happy eating nothing but these for days on end.
The food is tasty as well, and the portions are very large. If you get the pasta you have the option of getting a larger portion, and I think that was the only meal I've ever seen my dad unable to finish in one sitting.

So, go for the rolls, stay for the food.

one of the best italian places around. the best garlic rolls that are never ending, pasta that yakes 5 days to eat, and house wine that is fun and flavorful. awesome atmosphere a block from the beach and though you need to get there early, its worth it.

This place has a great ambience and is good for groups, but I don't understand why some people are obsessed. I think Fritto Misto has better food, but again, you can't beat the ambiance here. I love how they give out garlic rolls while

I did dinner there a couple of weeks ago with my girl friend. We ordered the gargantuan portion of the pasta and wine. The service was quick and the food was tasty. I especially love the garlic rolls (though they are probably not that

Saturday i ate at the beach c and o and when i bit into the garlic roll i found a clump of white or blond hair,I gave it to a passing waiter how said sorry,my black hair waitress asked what happened and when i told her she said will get you at least a free desert.The Arabic or Indian manager came over and said sorry.When the bill came no deduction.I thought about this for a while and thought how cheap they are.I've lived in this area for 40 years and now i tell my story to friends and and strangers very poor business on your part

The C&O never fails to give me a great meal and great memory! The staff are wonderful and their style is very original. I feel like i've been teleported to Italy everytime I sit in their outside pation. They painted the walls to make you feel like your in Italy - a perfect Italian dining experience!

I miss their mango dessert so I went there for dinner tonight. Food was good but service was terrible. Someone other than our waiter brought out our food and our waiter never stopped by to ask what he can do for us after taking our

Don't go here if you're looking for good food. It's a nice atmosphere, but besides the garlic rolls the food is terrible. The manager is also very rude. I went there with a few friends for my birthday and I ordered the Fettuccine

They have a very cute outdoor patio. The calamari is very good. The chicken parmesagn and the eggplant parmasagn are both really good. The lasagna, however, is not. I would definitely skip it. The pesto here is not the green kind, it

Since we live nearby, we've tried to give this place a chance but it seems to disappoint every time. Yes, the garlic rolls are great, and so is the cheesebread at Sizzler but you're not aching to wait in line for an hour to eat there, are

Garlic roles by the dozen....by the pound. God they're good. Did you ever notice how much better of a mood you're in when you get free stuff? I mean seriously...they even give out their garlic goodness to people waiting for a table on

I've been coming to C&O's for years and now also enjoy the Cucina down the street. I love the family-style dining and their garlic rolls are to die for! The whole atmosphere is great, but...\r
I went here a couple of weeks ago for a

I've only been here once before, but I think I'll come here much more often. I LOVE pasta and although I don't pretend to be a "pasta-know-it-all", I think I know when it's good and when it's not... and this pasta was GOOD. As mentioned in

I have eaten here about 50 times over the past 25 years and have seen the progression from very good to good, to mediocre, to below average. The homemade Pasta used to be plenty and good. It still plenty but the quality is worst than most

Highly over rate; very over priced. We ordered the Antipasti Platter, $17.95, for an appitzer that contained: Roasted Peppers- two small slices, Artichoke Hearts- a huge pile straight out of the can, Kalamata Olives, Marinated Mushrooms,

the pastas here are great and they give you LARGE portions...for a very reasonable price. and they give out garlic bread for free..and those are seriously to die for! and the environment is great and fun...its a place you can enjoy with friends and family

The food here is top notch, but C & O Trattoria did not stop there. They decided to give their patrons huge portions of this delicious food. The pasta dishes are very fresh tasting, and the all-you-can-eat garlic rolls are phenomenal.
