Fabulous pasta and prompt, attentive service. We didn't have a big meal because we were going to a movie afterward. But we'll be back to enjoy more food and explore the store more fully.

We have been to all of the their restaurants. We thought the food was even better in Westwood, and a wonderful addition to Westwood. We brought home our leftovers and ate them at home the next day, still delicious.
