Super fun Italian restaurant. Not terribly authentic food, but it is delicious and the portions are huge! They constantly pass out free garlic knots which is the reason this place is so popular, and they are to die for. They mostly take walk-ins, so no reservation needed. Afterward you can walk to the ocean and around Venice!

$1.75 for the most delicious ice cream sandwich. Can be a line especially in the evenings, but they know how to keep it moving. Walk around Westwood afterward.
