Veal Parm.-Sherman Oaks area, suggestions?

[Hypnotic23]

Hello-

Can anybody suggest an Italian spot in the vicinity of Sherman Oaks, Studio City, North Hollywood to Van Nuys that makes a tasty Veal Parmesian or Chicken Parmesian.

Thank you in advance,

Stuart

If you request it, Oliva Italian Grill on Van Nuys will make it for ya! And they do most things very well.

Still have never gotten why anyone would want to bury a decent to good piece of veal in a red sauce, any cheese, etc. Good veal with a good veal based sauce, ok.
Don't expect much from the many sherman oaks places for quality veal - the sauce may be to your liking, but unless the dish is quite expensive, it will not be made with good veal.

Carter I couldn't agree more, the suggestion to try Georgio's was avoided since that place is disgusting. I agree with Debbie that Oyster House is tasty just the decor for dining there doesn't fit my style at all, rang Antonio's but they dont make calamari which is a must appetizer when I have chicken or veal parm so where did I settle but Marie's Italian and had a mediocre meal to please my craving just not up to par to what I've grown to enjoy.

I think you've defined the situation, Carter. Red sauce and cheese are there to mitigate the non-primo quality of the veal. There are ways to prepare the good cuts and ways to prepare the less-good ones, which is as it should be.

I thought I was the only weird one. Why would you buy an expensive cut of meat and bury it. Then again, I've probably never had a good veal done correctly parmesaned.

It's not very refined, but the portion is huge and it's quite tasty: chicken parm at Oyster House Saloon.

Definitely cannot recommend the chicken parm at Little Toni's, not too good.

i expect giorgio's in studio city does a decent one
they're just east of laural canyon on ventura blvd in a mini mall with a dupar's out front

You use the wording, "Expect" does that mean your guessing and have never tried it? I might give Antonio's a shot, we'll see...

i've eaten there (giorgio's sp?) so many times over the years (decade at least) and honestly i'm pretty sure i've had the parm but don't remember it specifically - but overall it's such a comfortable relaxed non fancy place and all the food is somehow warm and satisfying to me - nothing gourmet though for sure!
