Great fun review. I’m a local that eats here at least once a week. You can’t miss with this friendly, down to earth good ole’ real Italian food. No chain action here. Just the real thing. If you’re into East Coast Italian – very reasonably priced, great wine list – this is your place. This Playa local joint had a make over inside and is really romantic..candle lit and and a total secret from the outside..you’d never know how cool it is at night…feels like you stepped into little Italian town. Great service too, Lisa the owner is a local and really friendly too, has you feel like your dining with good friends. I’d give it a best in LA VOTE.. Gotta try the pizza’s too… but you need to ask for the separate pizza menu.. (insider info… locals love it)

Dude,
You’ve got to be kiddin’ – well you were on the right track trying the ravioli..but next time – you’ve got to try the portobello mushroom ravioli w/ pesto sauce. Rocks.amazing dish… and if you’re into seafood, try the linguini pescatore – fresh seafood, lots of assortment, huge scallops perfectly cooked, shrimp, salmon, clams, muscles in a delicious light broth…

The Cantalino’s Salermo beach has always been one of my favorites, the perfect place for a first date in deed.

Marino’s on Larchmont or Cafe Angelino on Third and Robertson are much better than Salerno Beach. How much were you drinking that you would give this place 4 out of 5 stars? And don’t call it Italian. It’s not Italian. But I admire your adventurous spirit. Live long and prosper.

Next time look for McAllister, Coach Jackson and the salty gang around the corner in the Harbor Room. Just don’t run Boss on the juke.

I would take this over Buca di Beppo any day. I want to go to there.

How was the wine list? A crucial element on any date.
