Civico 2064

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Cucina Calabrese in the Heart of Los Feliz

Civico 2064 sits on Hillhurst Avenue in Los Feliz with a clear sense of purpose: to bring the regional cooking of Calabria — southern Italy's rugged, flavor-forward toe — to Los Angeles without compromise. The kitchen operates under the motto fatto in casa e basta (homemade, full stop), and that philosophy shapes everything on the plate.

The restaurant earned 2 Forks from Gambero Rosso in 2026, Italy's most authoritative food and wine guide — a recognition that carries particular weight for a Calabrian table operating thousands of miles from its source.

Honest Ingredients, Regional Roots

The menu draws directly from Calabrian tradition, built around what the restaurant calls materia prima: Italian specialty ingredients imported with care, paired with fresh local produce, meat, and seafood sourced from nearby California farms and purveyors. Seasonality and heritage guide every preparation. Nothing here is reinvented for novelty's sake — the ambition is fidelity to flavor, not spectacle.

Civico 2064 also lays claim to something genuinely distinctive: what it describes as the first Italian-vegan menu in the United States. Alongside traditional Calabrian dishes, the kitchen offers fully vegan and gluten-free options — not as afterthoughts, but as a considered extension of the same ingredient-led approach. Lunch, dinner, and takeaway are all available.

The Space

The dining room is warm and rustic — designed to feel like home rather than a stage. The atmosphere is one where guests are encouraged to slow down, and the experience is built around the idea that a meal should leave you wanting to return. A patio adds another dimension for California evenings.

Civico 2064 is part of a small California family: a sibling restaurant, Civico 1845, operates in San Diego. Both share the same commitment to authentic Italian cooking rooted in regional identity — rare in a city where Italian food is often reduced to its broadest common denominator.
