AMBIENCE WOULD BE A PLUS Mon Feb 24 11:34:39 -0800 2003 0 Bernke 1 1065175 Rialto or Peasant are good -- and I haven't tried it yet but Lovely Day looks adorable -- it's either Thai or Vietnamese but in an adorable homey americana setting. I've also heard 8 Mile Creek is good but haven't been there either. Mon Feb 24 15:22:30 -0800 2003 1065149 0 pastrychick 1 1065228 Any parameters? Cuisine preference? How about price range? Mon Feb 24 23:04:14 -0800 2003 1065149 0 Ben 1 1065260 Rialto's the pick. Skip 8 Mile Creek. Peasant is good, but they also own Appizz and my last meal there was terrible (so I won't go to either one anymore).
