About Ristorante Tortellino

Ristorante Tortellino was created by singer and songwriter Andreas Galiano, aka Andi Krush, whose passion for Italian cuisine was instilled in him from a young age while watching his father work in a traditional Italian restaurant. This restaurant is the ultimate embodiment of Andi's childhood dream, and it perfectly complements his latest EP, "Shadows Run," which was produced by Chico Bennet. Ristorante Tortellino's mission is to share the beauty of our cultural flavors with the city of Los Angeles, and our location at 7168 Melrose Avenue couldn't be more perfect.

The name Tortellino is inspired by the pasta tortellini, a delicious filled pasta that hails from the regions of Emilia and Toscana in Italy. We chose this name as a symbol of our commitment to authentic Italian cuisine. Our Melrose Avenue location is our first foray into the restaurant world, and we put our heart and soul into every aspect of its creation.

Our restaurant specializes in fresh, homemade pasta and salad bowls, and we offer a wide range of Italian specialties that are made right here in-house. Ristorante Tortellino's culinary team is comprised of 90% Italian chefs who are dedicated to bringing authentic flavors and techniques to each dish. We also offer a range of Italian espresso beverages, including cappuccino and latte macchiato, to complement your meal and give you a true taste of Italy.

Our ultimate goal is to establish ourselves as the go-to destination for fresh, homemade pasta. We are passionate about our craft, and we are setting our sights on opening a franchise business so that we can share our authentic Italian dining experience with more people. Come visit us today!
