Luisa's Italian Ristorante
Empty wine bottles hanging from the ceilings tell the story of birthdays and anniversaries that have been celebrated over an authentic Italian meal and a glass of red. Black-and-white photos of owner, Luisa, and newspaper clippings about the well-established eatery don the walls of the dimly lit dining room, giving an old-school vibe. Regulars often order the veal, seafood and homemade pasta dishes, like the capellini con gamberi (angel hair pasta with prawns and asparagus in a lemon, light cream and garlic sauce).

"...Luisa Hansen, beautiful and vivacious owner, whose authentic old-family recipes will guarantee that only the finest central and Northern Italian food will be served..." The Guardian

Luisa has created a warm, romantic, cozy, Florentine atmosphere that makes one feel as though they are really in Italy. She has been cooking authentic Italian cuisine since 1959 with passion and makes all the Italian specialties in house; Luisa only selects the finest seafood and Niman Ranch organic meats. All pasta and bread is made fresh on the premises.
