Saturday Night Live connection

edit

The New York Times reported in 2025 that "Every Tuesday evening before a new episode of 'Saturday Night Live', Lattanzi is where you’ll find Lorne Michaels, the show’s creator and kingpin, and that week’s celebrity host, along with a rotating cadre of eight or so carefully chosen 'S.N.L.' producers, writers and cast members."[4]

Reviews

edit

USA Today wrote "Italian-sized portions will waken your appetite but not overwhelm, perfect date place with softly lit tables just distant enough to have a private conversation."[5]
