"Jame Enoteca might be our favorite place to eat pasta in the South Bay. Have we been known to offer a friend a ride to the airport, just so we could swing by here and devour their silky, handmade mandilli pasta afterwards in the car? More times than we can count. This El Segundo strip mall spot has a covered patio where you can socially distance to drink some California reds alongside Caesar salads flavored with Calabrian chilies, crispy braised pork shank in lambrusco-mustard sauce, and some truly excellent pasta. Reservations can be made here." - kat hong
