Benvenuti

We’re bringing a piece of the Palisades to Venice! Cinque Terre West is continuing its journey, now in the heart of a new neighborhood—with the same food, same heart, and the same people behind it. We can’t wait to welcome you!

Cinque Terre West is a warm family-run Italian restaurant reminiscent of the small Mediterranean coastal villages of the Cinque Terre region.

We serve authentic regional Ligurian dishes, using locally sourced food, specializing in fresh seafood, daily house-made pastas, fatto a mano (made-by-hand) pizza dough and delizioso cornetti (Italian croissants).

EaterLA - Cinque Terre West Osteria is one of those charming finds with handmade pastas, good wines, pizzas, and tons of seafood dishes

SoCalPulse – The summer menu includes starters such as fresh burrata with stone fruit, pea tendrils, sourdough toast and saba (pictured); fresh housemade pastas like Spaghetti Frutti di Mare (with mussels, clams, calamari, shrimp, scallops, cherry tomatoes and basil); an array of pizzas; and sides.

PureWow - This fairly new casual Italian near the bustling Palisades Village might be under-the-radar but they are serving some of the most authentic and delicious Ligurian cuisine.

Santa Monica Daily Press - Although he reached great culinary heights, Vinzoni found himself missing the intimacy, simplicity, and quality of small-scale cooking. In 2019 he and his wife Marlo decided to open Cinque Terre WEST as a cozy family restaurant serving classic Lingurian dishes and refreshing Italian wines.
