Last week, I was in the mood for "Italian", and I remembered Fritto Misto, and I looked at their menu. They had meals that sounded delicious, and I was delighted that they served whole wheat and gluten-free pasta options. I wound up having a fantastic meal there, and I ate there again this week. Everything is so fresh, flavorful, and delicious! The environment is very warm and friendly, and the staff is very accommodating and helpful. I didn't feel like I had to choose between health and flavor when I was there; I got both! Bravo, Fritto Misto!

If you love cheese and carbs, Forma is the place to go! We came during happy hour on a Sunday with…read morea group of friends and had a wonderful time. The restaurant was pretty empty when we first arrived at 2pm but quickly filled up within the hour. The servers were very attentive the whole time, even when the place got packed they knew when our drinks were empty without us having to say a word. The only thing was you had to ask for the happy hour menu, they didn't just automatically give it to you upon arrival. We started with a round of drinks, and everyone seemed to have enjoyed their drink. I got a peach bellini that was lightly sweet and very refreshing, it paired well with the heavier food we ordered. Since it was our first time we went a little crazy and ordered a variety of appetizers, flatbreads and pasta. We got 11 dishes to share and there wasn't a single dish that disappointed. I love how well they timed the pacing of serving each dish, making sure we can try everything as it's freshly cooked. They also started from the lighter appetizers then progressed to more flavourful and filling dishes, taking us on a nice food journey. The highlights were the Gnocco Fritto, Mushroom Flatbread and Trofie Al Pesto. Honestly all their pasta were sooo good it's hard to pick a favourite. The pasta was perfectly al dente and the sauce coated every bite beautifully. Each bite was creamy, savoury and packed full of flavour! The Gnocco Fritto was fried to perfection. It was light, fluffy and not greasy at all, the crispy exterior with the airy chewy interior made for a great bite. My only complaint is the sauce container is too small to drunk the gnocco in, making it hard to get the sauce on it for the perfect bite. All their mushroom dishes had wonderful umami truffle flavour and creamy delicious cheese. I personally love fresh baked bread so the flatbread made for a wonderful vessel for the mushroom topping. I'm getting hungry just reminiscing about the scrumptious meal. Highly recommend stopping by if you're on the west side and craving Italian food.

And by bad it wasn't that anything was wrong some folks just didn't like their dishes. 3) my wish is that we had the ability to be seated inside With such a large party we were sat in the back patio. Which would not have been bad except: 1) it was in an alley 2) you had to walk past multiple dumpsters to get to it 3) if you had to use the restroom you had to walk past those dumpsters twice in each trip 4) it was a hot day and the sun had us sweating until it went behind the buildings I would like to experience the restaurant from inside and get to see the pasta being spun on the cheese wheel instead of hearing about it. But for outside Forma did the best they can to make it feel homie. The food was all very enjoyable. The chicken meatballs. The burrata. The arancini. I had the branzino for my main. It was good not great but I was full off of the appetizers. We all shared the Cacio E Pepe and it was enjoyed. The short ribs was ordered a lot and not loved but the pastas seemed to be the stars of the night. The desserts were good. The gelatos were refreshing specially with the heat. The apple cake a nice twist. For drinks they have an abundance of spritz options. No real cocktails could be made as all their drinks are prebatched. That was disappointing. Prices were reasonable across the board and a good time had by all. Our server was Anso and he and team did a good job. If I was scoring off the alley seating it would be a one or a two star. But some folks like it out there. It's less noisy than inside. So my rating is a benefit of the doubt four star. Next time I have to sit inside.

Papille Gustative was terrific. Indoor decor is woody but modern. Outdoor structure with lots of plants, and good service to be sure. For a guy who grew up in Paris, who has returned many times to France and Europe, eaten at Le Tour D'Argent, Joel Rubuchon and Paul Bocuse, Roger Verge ... Le Cirque and Caravelle ( now closed) restaurants there and here & am in general a bit of a foodie, they've done a great job - outdoor setting, service (always a challenge) farm to table produce and a brunch menu that is top of class. Can't wait to see what they do for an encore for a dinner menu. They are perhaps a year new. Opening during a pandemic is a great challenge to be sure. Seems the early service kinks are improved. My recommendations: Japan ceremonial grade matcha teas, salmon and avocado toasts, nectarine crostada, smoked salmon benedict. This place is the bomb! read more

My husband and I along with our two teenage kids had such a wonderful time here! Location is amazing, the prime district of Main Street just a step away from beautiful beaches in Santa Monica. I love the fact that all their ingredients including even the tiniest element such as organic peas are from local farmers, bakers and coffee brewers which would give you the right definition of farm-to-table dining experience. You know exactly what your body and soul is getting. Their staff is very friendly and seems to be enjoying what they do. That is always such a great thing to see. Overall, I am glad to say that we found one of our regular spots where all of us will keep coming back to. read more

And this is how it was one night after eating dinner at another restaurant nearby...the enticing-looking slices at Gjelina Take Away beckoned, and I answered the call. Considering Gjelina proper is one of the more difficult restaurants to get into if you don't plan in advance, being able to get a taste of their deliciousness at the adjacent take-away version is a gift to us all. Their Pomodoro pie (think perfectly thin and crispy crust, generous size, and tomatoes galore on top) looked out of control, so we got a slice. Add burrata cheese? Oh, yes, please do that. And they did, and we ended up with this glorious Naples / NYC slice fusion that delighted my post-dinner pizza joie de vivre. There is plenty for vegetarians at Gjelina Takeaway, including some delights from the main Gjelina menu, other slices, and more.

This review has nothing to do with food or service it has to do with management and how long a…read morerestaurant should stay open. On the Internet on every possible site it says that the restaurant is open till 10 o'clock. In fact, when I went to enter this Yelp also said it's open till 10 o'clock. I walked in at 8:45 asked the people if they were open they said no that it closes in a couple minutes meaning 9 o'clock and that you'd have to order immediately. This is again my pet peeve with restaurants in California. If you're going to close your restaurant at 9 o'clock you must stay open at least an hour after that so people can sit down take their time order their dinner and eat their dinner and then an hour after that you close the kitchen, but you leave it open for dessert for another half hour then people can order their dessert in a calm manner have their dessert and still enjoy their dinner and sit around. This business of having a close time and then telling people they have two minutes to order is a bunch of crap. This doesn't happen in Chicago. It doesn't happen in New York and it doesn't happen at high in restaurants. So if you do this, you're not a high-end restaurant you're a low restaurant. It probably is having trouble staying alive anyway. So don't do this. I will always give you a one or two star review. I have enough followers and you should take my word for it that you can't do this. If you're open till 10 o'clock be open till 10 o'clock and give people time to enjoy their dinner.
