Came here for a birthday dinner with some girlfriends and had a wonderful time. The place itself is really beautiful. They put a lot of effort to make this place look vibey. We ordered a handful of pastas, pizza, and a green (of course). The standouts to me were the Fiori Di Zucca and the Polpette di Coda (the oxtail pasta), which surprisingly had a lot of meat in it. Our server was great as well. Now until 1/31, if you order cacio e pepe, the proceeds will be donated to the LAFD foundation, so go now :)

Wonderful experience! Staff was excellent. We enjoyed every dish that we ordered. The pizza Bianca was a lovely start, along with the oxtail meatballs and the squash blossoms. We did enjoy the Margherita pizza, although it did come out a little bit cold. The cacio e pepe was to die for. We all loved the ambience and plan to come back again soon. A truly special evening.

Fantastic restaurant with immaculate vibes. The pasta is stellar and I love that the workers speak in Italian! The spritz was perfection. The sauce that comes with the prawns might *hands down* be the best thing I've ever eaten.

After having this place bookmarked for so long, I finally had the opportunity to dine at Mother Wolf The pasta was the star of the night! Both dishes we ordered were cooked perfectly al dente and packed with flavor. The oxtail ragu was rich and hearty, while the spaghetti all'arrabbiata had the perfect spicy kick to keep things exciting. We tried the mushroom pizza, which was just okay. The crust was thin and hard, and the pizza itself was overly salty and didn't quite live up to the hype. The appetizers were a highlight! The ricotta-stuffed squash blossoms were light, crispy, and bursting with flavor. The fennel persimmon salad was refreshing, with a perfect balance of sweet and tangy notes. Valet parking is available for $20. Reservations can be made online a week in advance (they do charge for last minute cancellations)

Fantastic dinner all around. I'll start by stating that we went with friends who have been there several times before so knew what to order and also knew some people that worked there. We were a group of 6 so we ordered family style and we were able to try a lot of just everything. My favs were definitely the: Squash blossoms- light, creamy and crunchy. Best I've ever had POLPETTE DI CODA - oxtail meatball this was so unique and surprisingly tasty fettuccine al burro - it's simple but so elegantly flavored with butter sauce with prosciutto Carbonara - if this is on any menu I always want to give it a try. Was not disappointed at all. It was creamy, not too salty and pasta was perfect. The restaurant is spacious so we didn't feel cramped and over crowded. The service was top notch. I can't wait to go back.

Amazing ambiance blended with excellent service and delicious food makes mother wolf a prime spot for a special dinner. This place accepts reservations and usually fills up quickly. While many of the dishes were delicious, the squash blossoms and prawns take the spotlight. The blossoms were an excellent surprise. The only way I can really describe them is as an elevated Jalapeño popper. They're not spicy, but the cheese packs a flavorful punch. The prawns are not overly salted and come in a delicious green sauce. The pasta is all made in house. We went with the oxtail rigatoni and cacio e Pepe. While both delicious, I did prefer the cacio e Pepe. The fennel salad was fresh and delicious. When it comes to the desserts the cannoli was just okay. I'd skip it. The one thing that disappointed me was that they did not have espresso when I was there! Unacceptable! Kidding. Mother wolf is an excellent restaurant. I will definitely come back.

Wow - what an incredibly special and delicious meal we had here! Lived up to its high expectations. Parking - we did valet for $20. Ambiance - such a beautiful interior. Warm and welcoming and decorated just beautiful. Despite it being a large open space, we were surprised to find the volume was just fine (we were sat on the side so maybe that helped). Bathrooms were also beautiful. Food and drink - I was treating my mom to this meal and I wanted her to get any and everything she wanted. She ordered the Sirene Spritz to drink and I had a sip - so delicious! To start we ordered the Pizza Bianca and the Fiori de zucca, the squash fritters were a MUST have. For her main she had the their new dish (can't remember the name) but it was fettuccine with prosciutto and she loved it. I had the cacio e pepe and it was probably the best cacio e pepe I've ever had! Save room for desert if you can. I believe this changes seasonally - we got their version of a pot of chocolate and their vanilla gelato was well. They paired beautifully together and was just to die for. Service - we were running late but unable to get in touch via the phone so we texted them and they responded quickly letting us know of their grace period. We were past the grace period and they sat us no problem. The host was friendly and chatty. Our waiter was so so incredible. Extremely attentive and we our drinks were ordered and sitting in front of us within 5 mins of us sitting now. The pacing of the food was perfect - it never felt like we had to wait long and she had great feedback any time we had question on the menu. This was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. You can truly taste the quality of their food and our service was impeccable!

We had a great time on Sunday at 7:30pm thanks to our server, who I forgot his name. He was a young man with glasses, dark hair, wore a sporty navy jacket and made sure to keep our water filled with ice. Great personable guy with fantastic recommendations. We shared a large Misticanza salad and lots of different pastas which were very filling. The spaghetti all'arrabbiata was delicious slightly spicy and not too heavy. The noodles were perfectly cooked and great portion sizes. The atmosphere was very cozy and great for date nights. Definitely recommend if you're looking for authentic Italian food. There's also free parking around the corner or valet in the front.
