La Bruschetta Ristorante

In business since 1984, La Bruschetta has won a loyal neighborhood following and has long been one of the more serious—and relaxed—places to dine close to Westwood Village. The simple yet handsome dining room works well for many occasions: it can be romantic, it suits the needs of businesspersons and it is also an ideal restaurant to bring visiting relatives. The kitchen prepares a wide range of intriguing pasta dishes—some hearty, some delicate and most of them noteworthy. Deftly prepared classic northern Italian entrées, most reasonably priced, range from veal scaloppine to osso buco.
