Sunday Supper at Dominick's, West Hollywood

Photo taken from Dominick's website.

It's easy to do the same things and go to the same places, especially when it comes to eating out. There's something comforting about the rotation of restaurants on our eat list. We always order the same thing and know exactly what we're going to get.

But every once in a while, it's exciting to shake things up with the usual suspects and try something new.

Since moving to West LA, we usually stay on the west side of the 405 and it always seems like an adventure when we head east. So a few Sundays ago, we were in for a great three-course meal and a bottle of wine for $20/person when MS surprised me with Sunday Supper at Dominick's in West Hollywood.

With a reservation for two, we had a table out back in their patio area where most 20 to 40 somethings sat. Most regulars (like the photo from their website above) sat inside in the dimly lit restaurant.

Homemade Pasta with Mushrooms in Cream Sauce

Olive Oil Cake with Vanilla Bean Gelato

The atmosphere was casual yet sophisticated, very LA. The servers were beautiful, as were the people, and there was lively chatter all around us. The food was simple, delicious and so reasonably priced for a nice dinner out. We had such a great time that I'm sure we'll be back for another Sunday Supper this summer.

For this upcoming weekend's menu, they have another great line up:

Sunday Supper for $15/person
Heirloom Tomato Brushetta
Tortiglioni with Sausage and Peppers
Vanilla Bean Rice Balls

$10 Bottles of Red or White
