LA's oldest Italian restaurant is more famous for its singing waiters than for its food. There are better entertainers and better chefs elsewhere, but an evening here is a lot of fun. Locals and tourists come for pizzas and hearty Sicilian pastas, while the servers bellow opera and pop. The NoHo clone offers the same decent food and variable music.
