Terroni Brentwood Coming Soon

If you were wondering what was going on behind the build-out at 155 S Barrington Place in Brentwood Village, I’ve got answers.  An ABC application was recently posted on the front that gives us proof this will be the location of Terroni Brentwood.  And while What Now Los Angeles broke the news earlier this year, the license application confirms it.  The people behind Terroni, Grupo Terroni, operate a series of Italian eateries across the region, including Terroni Beverly and La Bettola LA.  The focus is on Italian with “authenticity and tradition” utilizing quality ingredients imported from Italy for their pastas and pizzas.  Brentwood sure does love Italian food.  Remember that the legendary Peppone, Maria’s Italian Kitchen, old-school Divino, and the recently opened and quite splendid All Roads are all about a block away…

Baja Norte Bringing Bruce Marder’s Elevated Mexican To Brentwood Soon…

On a tip from a reader, I went by the site of the erstwhile Brentwood Restaurant & Lounge at 148 S Barrington to see what was going on.  Sure enough, the previously understated exterior has been transformed into a bright and sunny facade announcing the arrival of a new venture, Baja Norte.  The website lets us know that this is a new project of chef Bruce Marder (West Beach Cafe, Rebecca’s, The Rooster, Capo).  Apparently, Baja Norte was born out of an exploration of his “Mexican food roots” during quarantine.  You can check out the menus and read more here.
