    Our server was super kind and had great recommendations for us. Despite the crazy winds and fire warning, the staff were very attentive, food was out quickly, and overall had a terrific birthday dinner with my family. Can’t wait to come back to my favourite restaurant in the valley.

    I celebrated my 55th birthday at Musso and Franks'. The best steak dinner I've had in years! The au gratin potatoes and creamed spinach were fantastic pairings. I also did not have to explain what a "Rusty Nail" was to their mixologist behind the bar. Fantastic dinning experience and we will be going back.

    Our service person was acceptional . Myhfriend who is a gourmet cook asked many questions about the ingredients of each entree. She knew it all.we had butternut squash with figs was delicious. my friend had Bece with pepper and cheese. He agreed it was far better than his. We shared the Caesar salad which was very different than any other Caesar salad I’ve ever had. Amazing! For desert we ordered pastry stuffed with apples and a side of ice cream and a chocolate dessert I don’t remember the name. I give Osteria mozza five stars in every area .

    As someone who had their mother and grandmother preparing pasta dishes together in the kitchen, somehow creating a home-cooked yet refined cuisine, Angelino Trattoria accomplishes the same. Countless times from New York, Boston and then to Los Angeles I have been disappointed when presented with dry pasta and common sauces. Here the pastas are made in house. The sauces are fresh and vibrant. The ravioli dish that I sampled-with portobello mushroom and pesto could not be improved. The pesto was silky, not overtly garlicky that read of fresh basil and the earthiness of Italy’s finest olive oil. I believe that I have found my go-to Italian eatery in Angelino Trattoria; I am looking forward to my next visit to try more items.
