squid ink, lemon. Still THE BEST calamari. So crispy and light and juicy... They are addictive. We decided that we will have to order these like we order soup dumplings: one order per person TO START!

in squid ink. I didn't think it looked good in pictures. I thought it wouldn't be crispy. I was so wrong. It has such a thin coating, but it is crispy and amazing! The best calamari we've ever had.

Cooked perfectly. The calamari was fresh and melted in your mouth. Great starter and terrific quality.

Wow! Super tender. Comes with cocktail sauce and tartar sauce. The tartar sauce was delicious and both dips were great. One of the few excellent calamari dishes we've tasted. #dineLA

Excellent!

Delicious! Had a little spice too. Yumm.

With Oaxacan Pasilla Aioli that was really good as well

Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Tasty!

Fresh, tender and delicious

with spicy arrabiata sauce.

cooked perfectly

I really liked it. My husband got a few rubbery pieces, so he was not a fan.

Yes!! Thank God! They changed their recipe and it is so much better! It finally had seasoning. This was delicious 🙂

plum sauce, peanuts, bell peppers, steamed white or brown rice. Really interesting. It was an appetizer, but didn't seem like it. It's even served on rice. We ate it all though!

Delicious!

Crispy calamari, hot cherry peppers, pepperoncini with marinara and lemon garlic aioli

Sine they are in squid ink and also from an Antonia Lafaso restaurant, we thought that they would be the same as the dish at Scopa Italian Roots. It wasn't. It was the latin version covered in cilantro and jalapenos... You couldn't even see the calamari! There was also a lot of citrus flavor (probably lime juice). It was spicy but not as incredible as the ine from Scopa.

Not the best calamari I've ever had, but the best appetizer we got tonight.

It was fine. No tentacles. ☹ "lightly breaded". If you're going to have less breading, you need really fresh and tender seafood... that was not the case. But it was FINE

Fried calamari steak strips

Large plate. My husband wasn't a fan, but my son and I enjoyed it. My son likes marinara with this dish, and they cheerfully brought some out.

Basic but good for munching. No seasoning. I wish there had been something to dip it into

Not as good as tentacles, but quality meat nonetheless. No marinara, just cocktail sauce and tartar sauce.

AYCE. Better with the soy sauce
