Al Forno is world-renowned. Also a big fan of L'Epicurio in Hotel Providence. Or you can check out some of the older Italian places on Federal Hill -- Old Canteen and Camille's are two good ones. Also, the Golf Club Lounge is a "small Italian restaurant" in North Providence.
Federal Hill has some of the finest Italian restaurants in the country.

Some good dinner ideas for two when eating out in downtown LA are the romantic restaurants called The Little Door which is french, or Providence which specialize in seafood.
I suggest Il Piato, Osteria, Andiamo, Pranzo's, and Il Vecino. If you want some good gelato (Italian ice cream), I would go to Ecco!
Consider Table 31 in the ComCast CenterVetri in Washington Square to explore some great wines.Upstares and Sotto Varalli for seafood and northern Italian.
A pizzeria or some Italian restaurants.
Mario's restaurants, I believe there are five in the Palm Springs area, are excellent, authentic and fairly inexpensive. Dine in or take out. Go early, before 5:00, or be prepared to wait up to a half hour for a table. There are several other very good Italian restaurants in the area, some a bit fancier and much more expensive than Mario's, but for great value and authentic Italian cooking Mario's is the place to go.
From eating at Italian restaurants, there has usually been calamari(fried squid) and prociutto and mozzarella.
Lovely seashore, dairies , and some very nice scenery and LOTS of good restaurants, especially Italian food.
