Charlie's Trio Cafe

Charlie’s Trio in Alhambra is a hidden gem! The pasta is perfectly cooked — rich, flavorful, and always satisfying. The sauces taste fresh and homemade, and the bread is warm, soft, and served with delicious butter or olive oil — a simple but irresistible start to the meal. Friendly service and cozy atmosphere make it even better. Highly recommended for anyone craving comforting, high-quality Italian food!

great place for celebration

Our go-to Italian place at Alhambra

Charles Trio carries very good deal at Sunday with brunch selections for less than $15. You can hang out with friends inside the restaurant or choose to have seats at their patio. You can also upgrade with their champagne.

I love this family owned business, the food and service is top notch! Good for date night, group celebrations during lunch or dinner. Free parking in structure 1/2 block away. Delicious and filling, been a favorite of mine for over 20 years.

I did enjoy my meal here, though Food is a bit pricy for the portion size received. The ambiance is nice, and they have plenty of TVs on the wall for sports. While it's not "classy" per say, the food is good and if you are looking for a nearby Italian restaurant in the area, it is a choice location to check out for yourself

Charlie’s Trio provides exceptional service and authentic Italian food including the pizza during Sunday’s brunch. The price is also very reasonable and you hardly find other Italian restaurants in DTLA offering this price.
