The Scene
This Pasadena outpost of Celestino Drago's empire is a perfect hideaway for elegant dining. The room is modern, with a few wooden accents added for warmth. A small bar easily fills with casual yet refined diners sipping wine as they wait for tables. Service comes thick with accents and charm.
The Food
Simple, elegant Italian dishes dominate the menu, along with a smattering of steaks and game to please everyone. Portions tend to be small, so splurge on a multi-course meal. The timballo de funghi, a rich mound of wild mushrooms and black truffles, swims in a pool of creamy fondue sauce. Citrus vinaigrette simply dresses the grilled shrimp, lentil and arugula salad. Rich risotto with pheasant and morels is hearty, although lacking in chunks of game. The pumpkin-filled tortelloni practically melt in your mouth. Don't pass on dessert, especially the profiteroles oozing light-as-air mascarpone cheese, covered in two delectable chocolate sauces.
