The Culinary theme for Melograno is derived from Chef Alberto's region of Piemonte. In the world of Italian food the most sophisticated and flavorful cuisine comes from Northern Italy. Piemonte's direct proximity to France throughout the centuries lent an elaborate approach to its cuisine accented by truffles and complimented by the wines of the region. Chef Alberto's use of ingredients and recipes that come from a Piemontese culture so far have yet to be completely translated to us here in California. Alberto's interpretation of his Piemontese cuisine together with his classical Cucina Mediterranea is what sets this chef apart from others.

I had a beautiful evening in a romantic space with the best wine and the most delicate flavors imaginable. This chef may be the best kept secret in Los Angeles! What he does with the his Kobe steak and gnocci with nettles that melt in your mouth...I will never forget.The pumpkin flan was the best! Excellent service too. We are also so glad to see Hollywood Blvd. returning to its former glory! Definetely the hottest place to be in town!
