Need a place in San Pedro to feed out-of-town guests at 3 PM on a Sunday.
Challenge. Accepted.
Raffaello is up to the task, and judging by several other large tables of multigenerational parties, we're not the only ones in the know about this family-friendly, open-all-weekend, picky-
The Grilled Octopus is quite tender, simply seasoned with some citrus.
The pasta is quantity over quality but the quality is still good. They even throw in a simple salad.
And a plate of roasted peppers to start.
Spaghetti and meatballs is quite nice and comes with some seriously savory tennis balls.
I do love this restaurant, but if I am to be honest, I didn't love the Manicotti alla Bolognese. It’s a tub of ricotta but it’s encased in a tube of pasta instead of a plastic tub. There is such a thing as too much cheese, and when the pasta to cheese ratio is 1:500, it’s too much of a good thing.
Those who had entrees enjoyed them - I tried a bite of the swordfish special and found the unforgiving fish to be skillfully prepared. I may have enjoyed an entree more, but having so many dishes that kids can share with their parents is truly a blessing, and for that I love them. When in the area, would absolutely come here again with family.
