The complimentary bread and garlic olive oil are enough to bring me here, but the food is truly delicious and fresh.

Awesome food. Fresh made bread, made in house. Calamari marinara, veal Parmesan, sausage and peppers, and eggplant Parmesan were all very good. Highly recommend!

You will run into someone from LMU here~guaranteed! Chopped salad, eggplant mama mia, and spiced up shrimp diablo are favorites! And, just EAT the garlic & oil & stop fussing about your breath!

A classic, casual neighborhood Italian red sauce spot. Think I’m going to be a regular.

Large Chopped Italian Salad is more than enough for two people. And it comes with delicious fresh bread. Beware of the garlic oil though. You won't kiss anyone for a week if you eat too much.

Pastas, soups, cheesecakes are outstanding. I'm in love with the food

The garlic oil is dangerous for your breath but it's very very worth it.

The table bread is some of the best around! Just make sure not to fill up before the entrées arrive!

Cesar salad, fish dishes, and especially mushroom fettuccini.

They have the best Linguine Alfredo! Watch out for the garlic if you care about the well-being of your coworkers though.
