Agree on the portion being too small.
review forthcoming @SithLord?
nancy’s caesar - egg, leek & anchovy crostini
is there a better salad in the city?
celery heart & shaved black truffle, truffled brie crostino
could have done with less truffle and more brie
butternut squash tortelloni with dates & radicchio
great balance of sweet and bitter
cioppino rock cod, scallops, clams & rouille
i don’t think i’ve seen cioppino on the menu before. pretty good for la
had one of my better meals here the other night.
the uni lardo crostini was excellent. the dressed spring onions on top seemed superfluous at first but when eaten together provided a nice bit of acid that makes sense. much better than the uni lardo I had recently at marea.
the spaghetti aglio e olio now comes with two huge carabineros. the heads provided almost too much juice for the amount of pasta but I wasn’t complaining and spooned it all up.
nancy’s caesar is still my favorite salad in la.
and the gelati with candied kumquats and almonds was a great finish.

Beautiful!
Nancy’s Caesar looks to be more like giant crostini with Caesar toppings and lightly dressed greens on the side.
Beautifully plated.
the Nancy’s Caesar has a little salad on one side of the plate, and the vinaigrette of that is a garlic-parmesan dressing. The whole Caesar component is on the other side, in the form of a large crostini [sic]
$234 (before wine, tax, and tip?) maybe kind of steep for many people?
