Possibly my favorite pasta joint in LA. It's tiny, totally casual, and a great find. It's all brick walls and wooden chairs- you order and pay almost like fast food and then the owner (who is always there; very cool) will go and cook your food right behind the register, the place is that small. But everything is fresh and delicious; it's like your mom is cooking for you, if your mom was an old Italian guy.\r

In some ways, seating is a con, but part of the charm is that Angelino's is so teeny - it's like it's a privelage to eat there! There's a slew of UCLA students everywhere, some less annoying than others (Brew Co is right across the street), and parking is terrible, but good luck finding parking anywhere in Westwood. Ultimately, Angelino's is a gem tucked away in collegeville - enjoy!
Pros: Food, Comfy, Service
Cons: Small, Parking
