Nardò Bringing Authentic Italian To Culver City

There’s window paper up on the space at 9725 Culver Blvd. (previously home to the doomed Sestina) announcing the impending arrival of Nardò.  With two other locations in West Hollywood and Huntington Beach, Nardò promises an authentic Southern Italian menu with such things as woodfired Neapolitan pizza and homemade pastas.  Looks like they’re aiming for a late May opening.  Until then, check out their West Hollywood location’s menu for an idea of what may be coming.

Nick The Greek Coming To MDR, And Elsewhere

A sign above the space at 4254 Lincoln Blvd. in Marina del Rey is announcing that a branch of rapidly expanding Greek chain Nick The Greek is settling in.  Nick The Greek operates a number of locations, mostly north of here.  Look for a menu of, you guessed it, souvlaki and gyro, as well as falafel, burgers, salads, and soup.  New locations in Huntington Beach and Long Beach are also in the works.
