    Beet cocktail
    Lucia L.

    So SLICE to find a little taste of New York in LA! Tucked away in the Platform mall in Culver City, Roberta's offers New York-inspired Italian fare, with a menu filled with pizza, pasta and much more. We had to order the Bee Sting, which is their version of a hot honey salami pizza, and is prepared fresh to order in-house via their pizza oven. We also ordered the clam linguine, which was made with housemade pasta, and small but high quality and fresh clams. Overall, the portions were a bit small for the prices, but it's undeniably high quality Italian food that can sometimes prove to be surprisingly elusive in LA. Service was very nice and attentive despite the restaurant being super busy, and even kindly offered us free housemade boysenberry ice cream to apologize for us having to move tables to accommodate a large 10+ person party (although we didn't mind moving away since they were super loud and obnoxious LOL). Parking is unfortunately not validated, but Sweetgreen a few feet down does offer validation.

    Roberta's is one of the best spots in LA if you're craving a true NY pizza experience on the West Coast. The pies hit exactly how they should, thin, crispy crust, great char, and loaded with flavor. Everything feels balanced and intentional, the kind of pizza that reminds you why New York sets the standard. Standouts for me are the Speckenwolf, Ursula's, and the Bee Sting, all excellent, no wrong choice here. If you miss NY pizza or just want a really well-executed pie in LA, Roberta's absolutely delivers. One of my all-time favorites and always worth the visit.

    Stracciatella with Bread
    Amanda M.

    A margherita pizza to dream about. This spot is absolutely worth the hype, everything we ordered tasted fresh and delicious. The bread and stracciatella was also a great side and will absolutely order again next time. The location is great, and parking is located just across the street. Service was also lovely as well.

    Amazing (!) but expensive pizza, and terrible service.
    Karen C.

    The pizza is delicious but expensive, the ambiance is pretty cool. But the service is none existent yet judgmental at the same time. For that, this restaurant gets 3 stars because all the stars really just go to the food quality, and the -2 stars are for high prices and terrible service. Ordering takeout is probably your best option.

    I was in town and decided to come here on a Tuesday night to catch up with some friends. Making a reservation was easy and we were seated as soon as we arrived. The host was very polite and helpful. He immediately helped us with drink orders. Then a waiter came up and tried taking our order as well. We were confused and asked who our waiter was. She very snappily and kinda rudely responded it was her. We were not a fan of her vibe. Drinks took some time to arrive even though they weren't that busy. Overall service wasn't that great even aside from her poor attitude. The drinks were very good and everyone seemed satisfied with that they ordered. For app we tried the fire and ice. This was delicious! The cheese was so milky and flavorful and I can't remember what was on the bottom but it was such a good compliment. The bread it came with was doughy, warm, and delicious. For entrees we shared 2 pizzas and 2 pastas. We ordered their bee sting pizza (off menu) and their lupo pizza. Both were very good. I was especially a fan of the bountiful mortadella on the lupo pizza. The cacio pepe pasta was the biggest let down of the night. Super flavorless and watery. The bucatini pasta was alright. The guanciale in the sauce was very hard and overcooked.

    Great potential, but not there yet. Walked half a mile from downtown Culver City after our friend mentioned of Roberta's having good pizza. We were faced with subpar service: only 6 tables occupied, but stood at the front desk for 10 mins to get seated. Once seated, the waiter just disappeared for 15 mins and I had to go inside to mention I'm ready to place an order. Simultaneously, other customers were waiting on their bills, etc. We had the bee sting pizza (not on the menu), it was honestly great, but as you can see my picture..the undercarriage is wet and soggy. All that oil is at the bottom and is like a wet rag. You cannot pick it up without the toppings falling off. If that weren't the case the pizza would've been a strong 4.5/5. Rigatoni Carbonara..this is not a carbonara. You can just call it "butter rigatoni with bacon." That's exactly how it tastes like. Roberta's has huge potential..food and service. Just needs extra love. For anyone in the area, I recommend just eating near downtown Culver City where all the restaurants are.

    We came here for happy hour, which would be awesome if it extended to 6. The roso pizza was good. Staff was very nice. Worth checking out at least once. Happy hour prices for food are reasonable compared to normal menu.

    My friend want to trying this place so we decided try. Nice location small pretty shopping mall. Cute interior inside. Outdoor was nice too. But food was just so so to me. I looked up reviews before I went there but a bit disappointed. Our waiter recommended spicy and sweet pepperoni pizza. It's was amazing. I would recommend this place pizza but honestly I couldn't recommend pasta. Because it's not pasta wasn't cooked and better pasta anywhere else. They signature bread with burrata cheese it's ok. I requested honey and tasted better in my opinion. Waiter was very accommodating. I will definitely go back this place for only pizza again.

    YOU GUYS! We almost never write reviews, but we had to for this experience. I used to live in Brooklyn and went to the original Roberta's countless times, but the Culver City location.... was phenomenal. We truly weren't expecting to have such an insanely positive experience, and went in thinking it may not be exactly the same, but were proven SO wrong. The pasta was perfect, the pizza dough was everything we remembered from New York and more, the boysenberry ice cream was the perfect Southern California touch and the bread was truly some of the best bread I've ever had. We got to talk to the manager for a bit, and her focus on sourcing from local farmers made so much sense in the quality of the food. Culver City has captured something special -- Brooklyn could take a page out of their book. ;)

    The house bread with sopressata spread - steaming hot with incredible taste and texture. Will be back for this one!!!

    Can anyone post the restaurant's number at the Culver City location? Thank you

    The restaurant does no accept phone calls or gives out the number. I have tried. They will only take reservations or orders from the website. It can be rather annoying if you are wanting something modified or special. But it is their policy.

    Does Roberta's allow dog on the patio?

    Yes

    How can I make a reservation here? There's no phone number and the link to the website is broken...

    through Resy. however, went recently for lunch, take out only and limited menu. phone number on their page is of New York's location.

    Not from what we saw on the menu

    Do they make larger pizzas than the standard 6 sliced one in the pictures?

    Only the 6" size in the photo.

    Does this place offer gluten free crusts?

    We do not currently offer gluten-free pizzas or pastas.

    Hi! Can I please make a reservation this Friday for 5 people at 6:30pm? Thanks!

    Are the pizzas for one, what is the size of the pie?

    The pizza is a medium size . six slices kinda small for two people if you are hungry but if u are not on starving mode than one pizza and a little gem salad will certainly be enough. You can always be on the safe side and order two because u just… Read more

I got: - 18" X-Large Pizza (Pepperoni and Sausage) - Garlic Bread - 8 Chicken Wings (mild) - French Fries To begin with, the food was delivered promptly and safely. And the amount of food was TREMENDOUS, very much worth the money spent. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the pizza that much. In terms of structure, it was just decent. Not floppy, but not super firm. However, the flavor was a little off for me. It tasted almost sweet and the flavor balance was kind of strange. It wasn't enough for me to throw it out, but enough that it was noticeable when I was eating it. In the end, I did still finish the whole thing over a few days. The garlic bread was not flavorful to the level I would hope, but was plentiful and fine to eat. The chicken wings were solid, I enjoyed them. The fries were also solid and flavorful, I enjoyed them too. Overall, the main course here (the pizza) was a little off for me. The price performance was incredible though, I got basically 3.5-4 days worth of meals with this, so I still appreciated trying it out.

The place is small so if you want to do a walk in be prepared to wait, but the wait is honestly so random. One time I got in 25 minutes later and next time 45 minutes. First time, I got takeout and was honestly disappointed. The pizza got cold during the 12 minute walk back to my apartment and it just didn't hit the same because it wasn't fresh. Second time, we did a walk-in on a Sunday and somehow got really lucky. Waited about 20 minutes at a nearby coffee shop because of cancellations. We got the Margherita special and Ruti's pizza, and both were out of this world. Especially the Margherita special... this is hands down my favorite pizza i've tried in LA. I tend to gravitate toward classic flavors and they did everything right with this one. The crust alone... probably the best Neapolitan dough I've had in my life. It's pillowy, soft, slightly chewy, and just has that perfect structure. Only thing to note is their pizzas are VERY floppy. Like... really floppy. So if that's not your thing, you might not love it as much. Ruti's pizza is a white base with soppressata, fresh arugula, and hot honey. The sweet and spicy combo worked really well, super balanced and not overwhelming. We also got the tricolor salad which was a great starter. Very fresh, bright, and tangy from the lemon dressing. It cuts through the heaviness of the pizza perfectly. Third time, we did another walk-in on a Saturday around 2:30 PM and got seated within 30 minutes. At this point I'm convinced I just have good luck with the wait times!! We ordered the mala lamb sausage, diavola, bianca, and tiramisu. My favorite this time was the bianca. It was lighter and acted as a really nice palate cleanser between the heavier pizzas. You can actually taste the lemon in it, which surprisingly I loved on pizza. Only thing is you have to eat it fast because once it cools down, the cheese solidifies pretty quickly. The mala lamb sausage is definitely a crowd favorite, but not my personal favorite.... It leans heavier and the lamb flavor comes through pretty strong. If you like bold flavors you'll probably love it, but I personally prefer something more classic and clean like the margherita or the bianca. The diavola was solid. The soppressata brought the right amount of spice and everything felt really balanced. And the tiramisu... I will always get this if I have room for dessert. It's a good portion size!! The three of us shared it after already eating three pizzas (and still had 3 slices leftover) and we were completely stuffed. I would come back again for the Margherita special and the tiramisu alone.
