Antonello Ristorante’s Honors 50th Anniversary of SCP

03.23.17

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of South Coast Plaza, the shopping and dining destination founded by Henry Segerstrom, restaurateur/chef Antonio Cagnolo at Antonello Ristorante will honor his legacy by serving his favorite meal throughout March. 

Gamberi alla Henry, large prawns cooked in a light San Marzano tomato sauce with Sicilian olive oil and oregano, will be prepared table side and served with toasted rustic bread. It will be available during lunch and dinner for $28. 

Cagnolo met Segerstrom in 1977 when he was managing Alfredo’s, a restaurant at the Westin South Coast Plaza.  He encouraged the Italian native to launch his own restaurant and two years later, Antonello Ristorante opened its doors. Cagnolo also owns two other eateries at South Coast Plaza: Quattro Café featuring specialty pasta dishes and entree selections; and Antonello Expresso Bar serves gourmet coffee drinks as well as homemade baked goods and sandwiches.

Co-chefs Salvatore Ferrara and Gino Buonanoce work closely with Cagnolo at Antonello Ristorante to develop daily specials and special prix fixe menus many paired with wines and other spirits.  The menu items boast high flavor profiles, organic ingredients and light approach to preparing them.
