fritto misto

santa monica, ca

website

i absolutely love this place. it helps that it's around the corner from my apartment. great for takeout, particularly since the restaurant itself gets packed at dinner time every night. but eating there with a friend is even better because then we can share a plate of fritto misto as a first course - a heaping plate of fried veggies, shrimp, and calamari. well seasoned and served with a tangy mayo dipping sauce. i then usually share a plate of their homemade pasta with cream sauce. every pasta on their menu seems to be served with cream sauce. sure, you could ask for them to make it "light" but their cream sauce is so good. pictured is my favorite - mushroom ravioli in marsala cream. not light. but delicious!
