Sasa Italian Gourmet

This place is seriously a SECRET. It's never packed, which always surprises me because it's so eclectic and decorated with nothing but personal touches. Their coffees are delicious. My friend had the chocolate amaretto orange cake, simply one of the most original combination of flavors ever, and I had lentil soup, truly tasty.

The potential of this restaurant to be a 10 stars experience is HUGE GOOD- 1. Restaurant is BEAUTIFUL and very unique. Perfect for intimate celebration (32 Bday for my man with 9 of our friends) 2. Delicious food. Special flavors. Feels like my boyfriend Italian Grandpa cooked for us. 3. Food was made fast and came in perfect timing (Brusketas to ease our starving stomachs, then salads and the main courses that we shared came all together) NEEDS TO IMPROVE AND EASY TO IMPROVE- 1. Lacking some of the CORE elements in the Italian kitchen No bread served, no Balsamic & olive oil (even when we asked for it) No Fresh Basil! Which is my FAVORITE Caprese salad was not a traditional Caprese. There were way more GREENS than any of the traditional ingredients and way too similar to the other salad that we ordered. 2. NO MUSIC Music is HUGE at setting the tone and contributing to the experience. 3. All 4 desserts were NOT TASTY and of us 10 agreed upon that. Why making such great good with such poor desserts in an ITALIAN restaurant were desserts should be INCREDIBLE?!! There was NO pistachios in any of the desserts either. One of the best ingredients in the Italian kitchen. 4. Server was polite but we all agreed he seemed to be going through something. Leave your troubles at home and come with a smile! We are here to have a good time and the Server can contribute to the experience big time.

Small portions...food was average. We spent $75 and just not worth it.

Food was great. Love the intimate feel!! Great service

La comida es increíble.. atendido por sus propios dueños, llamen para reservar que el lugar se llena.. SUPER RECOMENDADO

final update: very sad to hear and see the location is closed. im so thankful i got to eat at Sasa and meet everyone. i am looking forward to the grand reopening of Sasa. hopefully it stays closeby! Third visit, solo this time, I got to me Salvador! what a nice smile. once more the Pumpkin ravioli was delectable. I will try to bring my mom back this saturday so she can see Salvador again. thank you so much oh man 2nd time here it was beyond amazing. the pumpkin ravioli was finally back in stock and by God it was the best ravioli ive ever had. the pumpkin was perfectly light sweet and the butter & sage sauce was the perfect suggestion made a reservation for my moms bday. turns out shes on of Salvadors doctors in the past. small world. food was superb! staff beyond friendly. very knowledgable. the decor feels like an i Spy book.

It was selected as the best restaurant in the downtown Hollywood area for a reason. I can tell you that excellent is NOT enough! Because the city is building a new development there they have had to move , but hopefully they will find a place soon! Their concept is different! Food out of the world ( homemade REAL Italian food)
