As summer checks in to Shutters on the Beach this month, so is a fresh batch of seasonally inspired flavors at 1 Pico, Coast Beach Café & Bar, and the Living Room. Led by Executive Chef Lucariello and our innovative beverage team, here is what foodies can look forward to as days get longer and nights get hotter by Santa Monica Beach.
Buona Sera, Buon Appetito!
The backdrop may be of the Pacific Ocean and not the Mediterranean, but Thursday nights still take on a distinctly Italian complexion this summer in the Living Room. Lasting from 6 to 9pm, come join us for a spirited night of delicious aperitivos—set to live jazz, of course—as well as hand-selected Italian vinos and craft cocktails.
Your appetizer selection includes a mouthwatering array of Italian charcuterie, artisanal cheeses, and antipasti—from Salumi Nostrani to Piatto di Formaggi to Verdure Miste. Our sommelier will then be on hand to guide you through a distinguished menu of Italian wines by the glass, featuring whites and reds from exclusive regions the likes of Umbria, Campania, Tuscany, and Emilia-Romagna. Or, take the cocktail route and sample our aptly named Cocktail Italiano—a refreshing mix of Negroni, Americano, Bellini, Sgroppino, Pirlo, and Spritz Veneziano.
It all sets up for a delicious start to the weekend, one you’ve come to expect from Shutters’ very own Italian virtuoso.
New Menu at 1 Pico
Chef Lucariello is working his magic in the kitchen to create a freshly inspired selection of dishes at 1 Pico for the new season. Stay tuned as we reveal the new dining menu in coming weeks.
