Charlie's Trio

Charlie's Trio Restaurant Review:

This classic neighborhood Italian eatery has built a loyal customer base with a menu of hearty southern Italian dishes. Located on Alhambra’s increasingly gentrified Main Street, the space is welcoming. Menu highlights include spaghetti with meatballs, spinach and cheese lasagna, and eggplant Parmigiana. Thin-crust pizzas come topped with traditional pepperoni, sausage and meatballs as well as untraditional items like jalapeños and ham. Strangely, Charlie’s also offers incongruous selections like broasted chicken and barbecue pork spare ribs. For dessert, save room for a workmanlike tiramisu. The original Charlie’s Trio is located at 5769 N. Huntington Dr., Los Angeles, 323-223-3871.
