My pick this week is Brunello Trattoria, a family run restaurant that serves delicious traditional southern Italian cuisine in an elegant four star setting at affordable family prices.
We started Antipasto della Casa Piccolo with grilled marinated vegetables, mushrooms, eggplant, zucchini and sweet red peppers. The vegetables were so flavorful and grilled to perfection.
What a nice change from a garden salad. The homemade crusty bread was out of this world. That could be a meal in itself.
We ordered the Calzone Napoletano. The delicious homemade dough surrounds fresh mozzarella and ricotta cheese, fresh tomatoes and salami.
This fantastic lunch for 2 in a beautiful upscale restaurant including linen napkins, all for about $20 is not to be passed up. Stop in soon you’ll be happy you did.
Brunello Trattoria is located in the gallery district at 6001 Washington Blvd. 310-280-3856
