"The former Tivoli Cafe space in the Pacific Palisades has turned into a different kind of casual Italian option called Tratto. The restaurant is operated by longtime Terroni and Mozza manager Enrico Bortoluzzi, with chef Samuele Minin, who spent years at Hostaria del Piccolo in Santa Monica. The menu includes classic Italian staples like handmade pasta, pizzas, whole dinner entrees like branzino, and lighter fare like salads and sandwiches for lunch. Beer and wine are available both inside the wood-lined room and on the patio. Tratto will open for friends and family service this weekend, followed by a bigger reveal next week." - Farley Elliott
