Los Angeles

Donna’s is inspired by an East Coast, red sauce joint and their menu is made up of Italian-American classics you expect, but done well with California ingredients. It's the latest trendy Italian restaurant in LA. Donna's is like the younger hipster version in a city where old-school Italian restaurant joints abound. The colorful wallpapers and cute ornaments will make you feel as if you’re in a nonna’s kitchen. Invite someone who appreciates a scene, share some lasagna, and feel confident in your ability to choose a restaurant that's casual, fun, and genuinely firing on all cylinders.

Designed by architect Frank Gehry, this internationally recognized landmark is one of the most acoustically sophisticated concert halls in the world. With elements of deconstructivist architecture and stainless-steel curves that produce an elegant st

Walt Disney Concert Hall

This venue is home to the LA Philharmonic but other great acts pass through here as well. The concert room is really well designed and there isn't a bad seat in the house, so don't be dissuaded from going thinking you have to get the expensive seats to have a nice time. I do prefer the first terrace level/center for seating as you see everyone below and just look onto the stage. Parking is also super easy underneath the venue and only $10. If there is a long line at the bar and you are only looking for beer or wine, you can also purchase these in the food store as well to avoid the line but do know that you can not bring them inside during the performance! Give yourself enough time to enjoy them before.

Donna's | Los Angeles | Shrtlst. Travel Guide

The penne vodka pasta is their signature dish and not only have critics writing about its rivally to Carbone's, but I can confirm this as well. It's absolutely outstanding! Also, another personal favorite is the stuffed peppers. This year-old neighborhood hotspot has truly captured the hearts of locals. From the super cute interior design to the quality of every dish, Donna's is the epitome of a perfect meal. Reservations can be difficult to get so be sure to be on it at 10 am two weeks before your desired res date. While it says on their site that they accept walk-ins, the wait can be up to two hours and people are just crazy enough to do it. A sneaky way to secure a spot is to line up around 4:30 just before they open to snag a first seating walk-in table. This place is something special.
