"Located in Santa Monica on Montana Avenue, Forma is a cute little Italian place that features small plates, like beef tartare and grilled octopus, as well as larger entrees like fettuccine bolognese and cacio e pepe, which all go great with a Bianco Negroni. Like the name of the restaurant suggests, there’s cheese aplenty, and many of the pastas are finished in large Parmesan wheels before being served. Make sure to leave room for dessert, like the chocolate hazelnut bread pudding or the classic tiramisu." - Samantha Leal
