VILLA ROMANA RESTAURANT – Italian
Two kitchens under one roof on Hollywood Boulevard: Italian on one side of the menu, Romanian on the other, and the Romanian side is why people cross town. Sarmale wrapped in cabbage leaves, ciolan afumat with braised cabbage, mititei with fries, ciorba de perisoare, fried carp with mamaliga — then papanasi or profiteroles to finish. Prefer to stay Italian? The pappardelle with porcini and truffle and the eggplant parmigiana hold their own. There's a covered patio and street terrace, live music and open-mic nights, and a kitchen quick enough to get you to a show on time.
