Leonardo’s Pasta, a handmade pasta shop, has found a permanent home in Whittier at 6701 Greenleaf Avenue, reports Eater LA. The restaurant is still in the buildout phase and the opening date is unknown.
Leonardo’s will serve the same Eastside-inspired pasta that it has become known for through various pop-ups at events like the Family Style Food Festival in L.A. and ComplexCon in Las Vegas.
Leonardo’s is helmed by Chef Stephen Trujillo, from the 3 Michelin-starred The French Laundry. Trujillo is behind a number of F&B concepts, including Mirano’s Tacos, a pop-up offering L.A. street tacos, and Lift, a community cafe also located at 6701 Greenleaf Avenue offering coffee, fresh prepared meals, upcycled clothing and CBD products.
Hours of operation and a menu for the official Leonardo’s space hasn’t been announced yet, but the plan is to be open for dinner, according to Eater LA.
