My name is Vincenzo Porcu as my grandfather, Vincenzo Porcu, who owned two restaurants in Sardinia. I come from Sinnai, a small town in the mountains of Cagliari. I've been working in the restaurant business since I was 14.The idea of visiting America first came to me when I was 22. Since then, I have been back and forth to NY many times until I decided to stay in LA, where I was able to have many work experiences. It was during a vacation in 2005 to Los Angeles, that ultimately persuaded me to make this my new home. I love Los Angeles and, in some ways, it reminds me of Sardinia. After working for a large family of restaurateurs, the Drago family, 4Sicilian brothers who have many places in this town, I decided to open my Carasau Sardinian Restaurant in Culver City.

    Truly enjoyed my first time at Somerville. The food we ordered was delicious.. who ever is back there cooking the chicken is doing the lords work. It was so juicy & fresh! I’d love to see them expand the menu a bit - add a seafood & pasta dish. I also felt like the dessert menu could’ve had some sweet potato pie or red velvet cake on it after all they’re serving collard greens lasagna. Overall I’ll definitely go back! The live music was such a great backdrop to a friends night out.

    We were so pleasantly surprised with everything about our lunch. I had seen so-so reviews and was a bit apprehensive, however it did not disappoint. The food was exceptional, as was the service. Can’t wait to come back.

    Pizza was an overcooked and wayy too crispy. Service was a bit slow as I had to ask 3 different people for a dessert menu and the place was not full.

    Slow service, especially wait staff (gentlemen handling busing were on point). A bit loud from multiple music sources within the promenade. Food hitting as always.
