In Short
After 14 years in the Gaslamp Quarter, Florentine Chef Roberto Bernardoni's restaurant remains a hit for special occasions and business gatherings. Painted wall murals, sculptures and tall windows embrace patrons in the dining room. Creamy pasta selections on the dinner menu include spinach-stuffed ravioli and bowtie pasta with sundried tomatoes. Carb-conscious visitors can turn to the pollo toscano-rolled chicken breast stuffed with asparagus and fontina cheese.
