SPERANZA

ITALIAN RESTAURANT

2547 Hyperion Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027

RESTAURANT ENTRANCE

One of Silver Lake's "Hidden Gem" behind the orange curtains with no signs. The only way you will know about this restaurant is through friends or people living in the neighborhood. I am sharing this secret with you! :) You're welcome!

SOURDOUGH BREAD

Once seated, water and tangy sourdough bread are served with two different dipping sauces that are really tasty. I will usually ask for more bread and sauce after the first one. (but don't eat too much you wouldn't be able to finish the main!)

INSIDE THE RESTAURANT

Today I came early so I was able to take a shot with empty seats looking into the food preparation area. I am seated in the garden of the restaurant.

VONGOLE

Fresh pasta here is the main reason people keep coming to this restaurant. The popular dishes are squid ink pasta, squid ink risotto and lobster risotto. Many people usually choose pasta or risotto for the main course as they are known for it but there are also several other proteins such as the grilled lamb chops, veal chops, shrimp and crab legs. As for me, my favorite pasta in this restaurant is called the Vongole. Remember to ask for the "RED" Vongole! Yummmmm.

The prices here are moderately high.
