Cinqueterre is a new restaurant by Francesco, one of our paddlers. An Italian restaurant by an Italian- what a concept. It has been tested and confirmed to be EXCELLENT. Reviews
11047 Santa Monica Blvd, LA 90025 Tel. 310 473-9292.
The restaurant is located between Veteran and Sepulveda on the North side of SM Blvd. Strictly Italian, very regional and concise menu with many daily specials, mostly fish. The entire staff is from Italy!! Be the one to brag about finding the undiscovered secret.

We want to welcome the new restaurant opening in the neighborhood.
The Organic Panificio opened up in the location of the former Harbor House and Edies Diner. It looks like a good addition to the Marina, and based on their attempts to reach out to the local clientele, we want to help them establish themselves. It looks like it's getting good reviews already. We look forward to eating there after practice. |
