Artiano's Appetizer 2 Go

Great Italian Comfort Food. If you have not had food from The Appetizer you are missing out. Great new location. Easy to stop in and pick up your dinner and take it home.

This is one of the most iconic restaurants in Palos Verdes - The Red Onion; the Admiral Risty (R.I.P.) & the Appetizer - and one my family has been going to since it opened in 1972. Anello has done an amazing job continuing the legacy his father built - R.I.P. Alfonso Artiano (b. 09/13/1941 d. 05/27/2019). The good news is that the Appetizer did not close - but merely moved to a more accessible location. Of course I was skeptical - would the atmosphere and cuisine be as phenomenal as it always has been? The answer - is an unqualified "YES" - They even have the original "cooler" from the original location! Of course I will miss the mural of Old Italia on the wall, Anello has done a fine job of moving forward with the times, but also paying homage to the history of this iconic and memorable restaurant. If you thought the Appetizer closed, you're in luck - and if you're concerned about the menu ... you need not be! Thank you Anello and the Appetizer Family for continuing the tradition - and honoring so many fine memories of our past! More...
