Divino Brentwood is Delish

One of the best things about Divino in Brentwood, just South of Sunset Blvd. is Goran Milic.  This handsome chef/owner from Montenegro, warmly smiles and welcomes guests into this Italian cafe. 
Our lunch started with a complimentary cup of Toscan style Italian Wedding soup.  Wonderful Italian bread slowly cooked with fresh tomatoes and basil was warm and satisfying.

As we looked over the menu and listened to the specials I noticed the chef creates many calamari dishes.  The Pasta Fagiole del Mare has cut pasta, canellini beans with shrimp, clams and calamari. Insalata di Mare has shrimp, clams, calamari, roasted peppers tossed with extra-virgin oil, lemon and fresh greens.  Linguine al Frutti di Mare is served in a zesty tomato sauce with fresh clams, mussels, calamari and shrimp.

We decided to order a Fungi Pizza and house salad.  A simple, yet pleasing meal for two long time friends.


DIVINO is located at 11714 Barrington Court, Brentwood - (310) 472-0886.  Open for lunch, brunch and dinner.
