I've been eating here since a friend's family owned the restaurant in middle school. Good atmosphere and good food. Buona Vita is a great dinner stop before heading out, or even just for a long dinner with good conversation. Great service typically, and NO CORKAGE. :D It's biggest drawback -it can get pretty loud when packed on a Friday or Saturday evening.

I know this place since 2005.and never failed. The atmosphere and the food is excellent. The wine is perfect.The weekend without Dino's place is gray. I can recommend for singles ,or couples but the best is for parties .(Clean place too!)

Stopped in for a quick dinner after craving some Italian food. It felt right, old school Italian with a small setting, dimly lit and cozy location. I only tried one thing, but food was good and there was plenty I wanted to choose from on the menu. I'll be back I'm sure.

Great place!! Every time we go there we feel like we are part of the family. Prices are reasonable and the service is amazing. One of the great things we love about it, we could bring our own wine and there is no corking fee.

It's okay; my main gripe is that they discriminate against craft beer. It's no secret their no corkage fee is a primary factor in coming here. However, you can bring in a $5 bottle of wine, but not a $25 bottle of beer. That's a bad policy, especially when Fritto Misto across the street does not judge you for preferring beer.

I always eat there whenever I come to Los Angeles. The food is outstanding and the service is even better. I think it's hard to find a good Italian restaurant today and this is an excellent example of it.

Delicious gnocchi, perfectly cooked calamari, exceptional service and warm hospitality. You couldn't ask for a better dining experience in the south bay.

Decent food. Very friendly staff but service was slow. All of the dishes we had were very heavy on the lemon.. even the water. Basic bread for the table, nothing special.
