We take pride in our great selection of wines, craft cocktails, and mocktails, ensuring there’s something for every taste.

Price: Very Expensive
• Italian • Venice
Booked 15 times today
Ospi is the sophomore restaurant of Jackson & Melissa Kalb, focused on Southern Italian cooking and way of life. The name derives from ospitante (“host” in Italian), with the expectation that guests will feel as comfortable at Ospi as they would at a friend’s dinner party. There will be plenty of house-made pastas as well as an expanded offering of pizzas. The beverage program crafted by Kalb features mostly Californian and Southern Italian wines and a full bar with a special negroni section. At Ospi, the pizza is inspired by the techniques of Antico Forno Roscioli which Jackson and Melissa frequented while visiting Rome. Focusing on Romana Tonda-style crusts that are cracker-thin, he is adapting a recipe that he feels will resonate with the LA diner. Jackson feels it extremely important to not take food too seriously. Take a trip to Southern Italy and be a guest in our home.

    The service was great my friend and I grabbed a few drinks and an appetizer, and then we left to a place with meat because the name of this place had us presume there was steak on the menu LOL otherwise it was good

    Elephante was the ideal setting today for a table outside in the sun facing the Pacific Ocean. Staff were welcoming, professional , and knowledgeable about the menu choices. So many tempting menu items. The Shrimp Appetizer was perfectly grilled with a lively, spicy sauce. DELISH! Enjoyed the pizza with Pork, Proscuito, and Honey. Thin crust with lots of flavors. The Bloody Mary came with attractive garnishes and the Arnold Palmers were expertly mixed. Tiramisu was very fresh and tasty. All in all a PERFECTO lunch. Can't wait to return.

    In an area where finding a really good restaurant can be a sketchy proposition, Belles was a solid option. The location near Venice Beach is good, but obviously touristy. But the Tiki Bar vibe was totally awesome!! Great ambience and the food was very solid as well. We shared 2 apps and split a dinner and everything was delicious. Service could have been a little peppier, but hey, you're in CALI. We got a couple of Tiki cocktails which were awesome, and priced where you'd expect for a top notch Tiki Bar. One thing I'd warn anyone about are the wine pours. We got 3 glasses of wine priced at $17, and they were easily 1/2 of a standard wine glass pour. The glasses were small and the pours were even smaller. I regretted that we didn't send the small pours back (which I can honestly say I've never done) and requested a different drink. If you go the wine route, invest in a bottle. Bottle prices were high for the varietals available, but a much better value than the "by the glass" pours and pricing, which were basically (and I'm not going to pull any punches here) a complete rip off. As my wife said, "that wasn't a pour, it was more like 3 sips!"
