Mother Wolf ★ 4.5

Evan Funke's Roman follow-up to Felix runs out of a 1930s Citizen News building in Hollywood. Mother Wolf serves Roman pasta in a marble-and-gold room.
Tip: The bar room serves the full menu without a reservation, but you need to be in line by 17:15 on a Friday.
Chi Spacca ★ 4.5
6610 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90038
Chi Spacca on Melrose, Los Angeles is Nancy Silverton's Mozza-family Italian steakhouse, plating a bistecca for two and a focaccia di Recco worth a detour.
Tip: Walk-in counter seats serve the full menu; Nancy Silverton's bakery shares the building.
