Sashimi tasting from the new menuPhoto: Livello
Now that the test kitchen has come and gone, and the dining room is spruced and tufted and tightened, Livello is ready for its January debut at L'Ermitage. Chef Joseph Elevado, who trained with Nobu Matsuhisa, is bringing his special Asian and Italian (but don't call it fusion) cuisine to the Hills of Beverly, dishes like sea urchin and fluke sashimi, soy mirin pork belly, and spaghetti carbonara with edamame. The reservation lines open on Sunday, and the officially debut is January 10. To tantalize your taste buds a bit, take a look at the opening menu.
