Robano's Review

In a rare appearance on this blog, we can't help but point out the Daily News/LA.com review of Robano's Italian Pizza Kitchen in Toluca Lake. Anthony Albano (from the now defunct Albano's pizza on Melrose) opened Robano's in the former Sebastian's location; Sebastian's was prominently abused by Gordon Ramsay on Kitchen Nightmares and then quickly shuttered after the horrible backlash. But back to Robano's. Natalie Haughton finds the pizza a highlight but the rest of the fare pretty pedestrian, and the decor: "Patio atmosphere could use a little sprucing up - and a makeover. It is slated for a remodel later this summer, we were told." Oh Gordo...looks like you can make a return visit! [LA.com/ELA]
