Piccolo Ristorante hand-rolls its pasta on Lincoln Boulevard in Santa Monica, chef Antonio Mure's Venetian-leaning dinners with a deep Italian cellar.
OrderHomemade pasta of the day with a glass from the Italian list
TipThe room is candlelit and small, better for two than six; Prosecco by the glass opens the night properly.

OrderSquash blossom pizza in season, the diavola year-round
TipThe back patio is the seat; squash blossom pizza when it is on, diavola otherwise. Wine list stays well priced.
