The service is always friendly there. We ordered the vodka pasta with chicken. It was good but needed a little more sauce. Pepperoni pizza was delicious. We also ordered a dine LA menu with a choice of salad and entre and a desert. I liked the little gem caesar and the churro desert was great. It was a good deal. Overall, i really like this spot and will continue to frequent Super Fine.
