    We had a delicious meal Oceanside while we watched the sunset. The ambiance was wonderful. You do need to take a train to get there which runs really slow or you can walk. Be sure to get there at least 15 min early to make sure you get to the restaurant on time and take the train that is going towards the left. There was no one to tell us what to do and we had arrived early but took the train in the wrong direction accidentally and were quite late. However they did hold our table. Would definitely dine here again.

    The spaghetti was truly amazing. The pasta actually tastes like it was made in Italy. 00 flour really does make all the difference. The service was excellent. The ambience really doesn’t match what you would think of as fine Italian dining, so that threw us off a bit. But the setting is nice!

    One of a kind Christmas holiday experience. Very exclusive and one of a kind. The four courses were all designed to pair well with well with sake. The optional sake pairing was super interesting. I was surprised by how different these sakes were, though maybe that has to do with the host making suitable choices for my western tastebuds. Took a bottle of "Anna" home. It was well sealed and packed in bubble wrap, and arrived well as checked luggage (can't take this onboard).
