Alejo’s Presto Italian Trattoria delivers authentic Italian cuisine

The smell of garlic bread and fried mozzarella meet you as you walk through the front door.

Alejos Presto Italian Trattoria Italian Restaurant has  been serving authentic Italian food for more than 50 years.

Its thin crust pizza primavera including fresh mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, zucchini topped with four different types of Italian cheeses make a truly unique dinning experience.

The waiters are attentive and treat you like family as they take your order. As soon as you sit down the warm homemade garlic bread comes to your table with olive oil that sends a sensation of authentic flavors to your taste buds.

Alejos is located in Westchester, near Loyola Marymount University, and for the residents of the area, it’s a place where families can come together after a long day at the beach or a comfortable place for the budget of a conscious student.

The food isn’t like your regular Italian restaurant. The food is reasonably priced and they serve good-sized portions perfect for families and large groups. The chicken alfredo and the Alejos salad have been crowd pleasers for any one who eats their.

The salad is the house special that includes turkey bacon or red cabbage. The spaghetti and meatballs taste so good it’s like being transported to a Italy. The oven baked  pizza smells exquisite as the cheese melts on your plate with whatever topping you can think of.

The biggest problem is the parking. There is little parking in the back of the restaurant and if there isn’t parking on Lincoln, patrons will have to park at the end of the block and walk.

The do have take out and if you live in the area they do deliver.  Alejos all so includes imported Italian wine,  sodas and the most delicious homemade Italian dessert that just melts in your mouth.

If you are not in the Westchester area Alejos has another location in Marina Del Rey that has the authentic homemade quality as the original.

So,  if you are looking for a family oriented dinning experience that treats you like family with good food and good spirits then Alejos is the place for you.
