Taste is pretty good on Sunset and Palisades Drive, as is Casa Nostra, which is a new place couple of miles further up the hill. Also there is Cafe Delfini is on W. Channel near PCH, across the street from Giorgio Baldi. Tue Nov 03 16:38:57 -0800 2009 5153491 106527 JE33 2 5153546 When I was last at Delfini it was so noisy that the experience was flawed. The food was fine, though. Tue Nov 03 16:47:51 -0800 2009 5153526 14405 TomSwift
