Business Description

Il Sole is an unassuming Italian restaurant that just happens to be one of Hollywood’s favorite eateries. Though it’s in the middle of the Sunset Strip, there is nothing flashy about the cozy Il Sole, except for the occasional paparazzi flashbulbs. Prices are pretty steep, but the scene often makes up for it. The Northern Italian menu is often praised, with the Dover sole and Il Sole’s selection of ... more

In Short The tables are intimate, the volume loud, and the diners are a mix of first dates and industry insiders. With classic minestrone, spaghetti with Tuscany-style meat sauce, and an extensive wine list, the restaurant easily evokes memories of Italian vacations. The rich lenticchie and riso is a house favorite, as is the insalata di carciofi, a delicate mix of baby artichokes, red onions ... more

The risotto was quite good as was the homemade squash ravioli I ordered, but nothing really wowed my palate. The ... more

This was just a wonderful dinner on every level. The service was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was nice without being stuffy and the food incredible. We went on a Friday at 5:45 without a reservation and were able to get in just fine.

Have fun! We did.

Went to IL Sole on a Saturday with a 6:30pm reservation. We were taken promptly to our table in the "wine room" section of the restaurant, right by the window. Atmosphere is very cozy. Wonderful food, and actually, not too expensive considering its fine dining (2 salads, 2 entrees, 2 desserts = $140 (tip included). Selection of dessert ice creams are fabulous - get the rum raisin. My hubby had a seafood ... more

Rude Hostess/Decent Food

Tonight I went to Il sole again, but this time very disappointed.
The food was decent, our waiter was good, but the night was spoiled from the very beginning due to the rude, snotty hostesses who think they are just too good.
No greeting, no manners, just walked us to the table and said she needed it back in an hour.
This ruined the entire meal. I have never been to any nice restaurant that would ... more
