This is the best Italian restaurant in LA period
This is the best Italian food in Los Angeles period. The prices are excellent considering the portions and quality of the food. Everything on the menu is delicious. I only had one bad experience with Gnocchi and I hope that they have corrected it. You must bring your own wine and there is a corkage fee. One of my favorite dishes here is the Farfalle al Salmone which is salmon and bowtie shaped pasta with a pink sauce. ANYTHING WITH EGGPLANT IS AWESOME HERE. I have no idea how they roast the eggplant but it is incredible. Located at the corner of Clarington and Venice BL
I know the owner personally and he gives excellent service. Very conscientious.    [01 Feb 2004 19:52:17]

Great food, excellent service, even at closing time when most restaurants would try rush you out the door.

A fantastic dining experience.    [18 May 2004 20:29:11]
