Sandi treated Mike for his birthday last Sunday. Zohreh, Sandi, and I have been there numerous times. We haven't enjoyed Mike's company on any of our restaurant outings. So she thought this restaurant would be a good start.
We ordered our favorite appetizers; Calamari and the Capesante, large scallops with dried cranberries, pine nuts, and shaved parmesan.
Zohreh and Sandi ordered the special Halibut, normally served with potatoes, but they opted for pasta. One thing about La Bocca Felice, they are always accommodating, unlike other restaurants that are so rigid and don't allow substitutions.
The birthday boy had one of my favorites, Vitello Marsala, veal with portobello mushroom cooked in marsala wine. He seemed to enjoy that. I ordered something I'd never had, which was Fettucine Capesante, homemade lemon-infused fettuccine with wild jumbo scallops in a light cream sauce. That was absolutely delicious. The scallops were cooked to perfection, and I loved the lemon-flavored pasta. I would definitely order that again.
La Bocca Felice is always a good place to go. We love that they still offer free corkage. They are located at 301 W. 6th St. in San Pedro, California.
