La Dolce Vita: Eating Italian in Brentwood
Hungry for Italian food tonight? Look no further than San Vicente Blvd. for some of the most delicious and authentic Italian food in all of Los Angeles!
It is no secret that everyone loves Italian food. Pasta Pomodori topped with parmesan, pizza with pesto, panini with prosciutto. Just saying these words makes you want to break out the pots and pans and tomatoes and fresh basil and rosemary and dried pastas and savory sausages and whip up an Italian feast for yourself and your guests, prepared with love.
Italian culture celebrates the pure joy and simple pleasure of sitting around a table with those you care about, sharing good wine, good food and the good life—“La Dolce Vita.” If you choose to do this without the hassle of the cooking and clean up, you can easily find some of the best Italian restaurants in the city right here in Brentwood.
On San Vicente Boulevard alone, you will find authentic Italian cuisine on almost every corner of the street. At dinnertime, you will find them waiting to welcome you at the door with a genuinely charming and heartfelt “buona sera!”
