Five star service, five star food. I brought a close friend of mine here for a nice bottle of wine, good ambiance, and wonderful Italian food. From the appetizers and salad, to the pasta and dessert, we had an unbelievable (and very local) Southbay dining experience. Thank you for taking care of us Abel— we will be back soon!!

Always good. Not cheap. Not too expensive for occasions. Service is an experience. A glass of wine is a glass of wine here, accurate pour. Wine selection is huge. Well crafted menu that hasn't changed in decades because it does not need to. Brunch, light lunch possible too, salads are amazing and fresh and you can split with a friend. You can request variations & market fish of the day and special menu items rotate all the time if the extensive menu does not pique your interest.

Italian spot by the beach with outdoor patio dining. Came here on a group of six on a Sunday morning around 11:30am after having made reservations online via OpenTable. Metered street parking. You’ll probably need to circle a couple of times to find a spot if you don’t come earlier in the morning or park in the neighborhoods but note that many of them have 1 hour limits. Credit cards are accepted. There’s single occupant bathrooms inside. No indoor dining was available when we went. Dogs are allowed.
The food portions are on the larger side and there’s a good mix of pizza and pasta options

Dinner at @bottleinnhermosa last night ... The romantic lighting made pics challenging (but yay for indoor dining again! 🎉).
1. Chicken Piccata with Brussels sprouts instead of pasta (we're doing low-carb)
2. Filet smothered with mushrooms and tarragon bernaise, sauteed spinach, roasted carrots, and brussel sprouts subbed for potatoes
3. Meatball appetizer I had to snap a pic of fast cuz we were so hungry! Lol
The wine list is incredible!!
Food was delicious, the meatballs so cheesy yummy, so much tarragon flavor in the bernaise, my chicken Piccata was perfect!!

Great little neighborhood spot with a great beach view. Food was delicious and the service was fast and friendly! The tables were adequately spaced and the heaters kept us comfortable. I highly encourage everyone to check this place out! I had the special which was jumbo scallops with risotto and asparagus. It was cooked to perfection.

This restaurant has fantastic Italian foods. The location is great as it’s right next to the Hermosa Beach Boardwalk. We went at night, can’t see anything but I can image the beautiful view of the ocean during the day.
All pasta dishes seem to be excellent as three of us had pasta. My daughter had their Rigatoni E Pollo Basilico. She told us that the combination of white wine creamy sauce with sundries tomatoes made the pastas extra tasty. My Fettuccine Bolognese was very good too. This dish exemplifies authentic good Italian food. And my wife had the Lobster Angel Hair. She just absolutely
