Feb 2010 - This restaurant tucked away in the rear corner of an Agoura Hills strip mall serves some of the best Italian food in the Conejo Valley. From hundreds of pasta variations and authentic Roman Italian specialties, Grissini has something for everyone.
Moderately priced, the beautifully decorated interior can be dined by patrons dressed for the theatre or those desiring a casual atmosphere. Wine enthusiasts will appreciate the fine selections available.
We recently visited this restaurant and ordered Peperoni Arrostiti, an appetizer consisting of roasted yellow and red bell peppers accompanied with Parmesan Reggiano cheese and Calamata black olives. The flavors mixed well together.
We opted to share a pasta dish and entree. Being that I had dined here before, I craved the exploding flavors of their chicken dish Pollo Cipriani. It included a chicken breast with diced tomatoes, artichoke hearts and white wine. It was served with roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
Next, we enjoyed a sweet dish of lobster ravioli in a limoncello sauce. Although it had terrific flavors, it could be too sweet for those that prefer traditional Italian tomato sauces.
After some Chianti with our meals, we finished our dinner with some splendid desserts.
Summary: The food was fresh and full of variety. The service was very professional. The cost was moderate. We highly recommend this restaurant. This is a Best Bet!
