Marino Ristorante

Neapolitan comfort dishes, the signature anti-pasti, vegan bread baked ancient-Roman-style, a choice of gluten-free pasta choices and an award-winning wine

Classic, old school Marino Ristorante was created by restaurateur,
Ciro “Mario” Marino, in 1983, but the family’s culinary history dates back over 50 years and includes the legendary Martoni’s. Mario Sr. (with sons Mario Jr. and Sal of Il Grano) were the first of a handful of chefs in LA who were out daily in the early morning markets, personally selecting fish and seafood.

Easter Menu To Go

02/09/2022

All grower champagne, many Special Club.
What is Special Club?....la creme de la creme.
Special Club Champagne is the highest tier of classification that grower Champagnes can achieve.
Established in 1971, the official name is Club de Trésors, or Club of Treasures.
The process to become a Special Club Champagne is practically as laborious as the process of making Champagne. The wines must pass two rigorous stages of selection. Before that happens, members gather each February to taste each other’s still wines from the previous vintage. The members vote on whether to declare a vintage year, which would mean that the vintage was outstanding, and worthy enough of a vintage-dated Champagne. The vote must be unanimous. Only 2000 bottles produced each year

So without getting more technical, I'll leave that to your hosts from Grace Under Pressure,
let me say "Champagne Lovers Unite" and reserve your place.
Seats are limited. This will be a dinner you don't want to miss and the price is a no brainer.
