Nothing like enjoying a hearty dish of gnocchi with . . . Ol’ Blue Eyes singing over your shoulder?
Well, sort of: Every Wednesday night at Mission Viejo’s Piccolino Ristorante Pizzeria, John Solone masterfully croons his covers of all the best songs by all the best legendary pop superstars—no, not that overproduced crap your kids are listening to on the radio, but the real stuff: Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tony Bennett and more. Shelly Morgan will also be on hand for her renditions of Peggy Lee, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald favorites.
As for the food? Everyone’s go-to source for instant restaurant assurance, Yelp.com, promises nothing but five-star reviews for Piccolino’s—sure, there are only two reviews, but we’re sure it’s delicious anyway. Try the gnocchi.
