Vitello’s Restaurant In Studio City Introduces Vegan Menu
The new dishes were inspired by the "upstairs" supper club partner, Michael Feinstein, legendary musician and longtime vegan.
STUDIO CITY, CA — The longtime Studio City eatery, Vitello’s Restaurant, and its upstairs supper club, Feinstein’s at Vitello’s, have added to their menus new vegan selections, with input from Broadway star, singer and pianist Michael Feinstein, a partner in the music club.
A vegan for more than 20 years, Feinstein worked with Vitello’s managing partner Brad Roen to create the new offerings which include vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options, according to management.
Vitello’s Restaurant, with a focus on classic and modern Italian cuisine, has been a fixture in the San Fernando Valley for more than 50 years. Feinstein’s at Vitello’s, meanwhile, opened this year, playing host to top performers, singers and comedians.
