Mediocre neighborhood place with noisy customers and meat- heavy menu. Although the website contains a vestigial promise that the kitchen can accommodate vegans, this is sadly no longer the case. Much better Italian choices closer to downtown Laguna Beach such as Alessa and Romeo.

My wife and I sneaked away from Pasadena to Laguna Beach for an after Christmas getaway. The only place we have eaten in Laguna Beach was closed so we searched and found this gem. We enjoyed everything we were served, but the Bruschetta and the Chef’s Rotelle was literally the best we have ever had. We have talked about it several times in the few days since our visit. I can’t wait to return and have more!! 😆
