Appetizers

On the LAVO restaurant San Diego menu, you can find popular appetizers such as the Baked Clams Oreganata made with Littleneck Clams, toasted breadcrumbs, and garlic butter or the garlic bread that comes with three types of dipping sauces: Basil Pesto, Marinara, and Gorgonzola Dolce. As a garlic lover, I loved the garlic bread as well as the variety of sauces to dip it in. If you enjoy the acquired taste that is Gorgonzola, you will love that sauce. I also tried the tuna tartare made with diced yellowfin tuna, avocado, crispy garlic, black olive dressing, and little crispy crackers. 

The Meatball

The Meatball is the noticeable one pound Wagyu meatball served with marinara and a creamy fresh whipped ricotta. The Meatball is photo-worthy and video-worthy, perfect for foodies and anyone who loves head-turning food. The meat is tender, moist, flavorful, and almost melts into your mouth.

Salad

The chopped antipasto salad has gem lettuce, a variety of Italian cured meats, provolone, artichokes, roasted peppers, pepperoncini, marinated mushrooms, green beans, cherry tomatoes as well as the Creamy Italian Dressing. 

House Specialties

Then there are the house specialties like the Chicken Marsala or the grilled branzino with heirloom tomato, Panzanella, and salsa verde.

Pasta

Savor the flavor of housemade pasta. If you like truffle, mushroom, and pasta then you really can't go wrong with the Truffle Ricotta Cavatelli. This truffle pasta dish is decadent and scrumptious. Made with crema, mushroom ragu, and shaved truffle.

Brick Oven Pizzas

Brick oven pizzas are known for the char flecks, the texture, the taste. They make a statement, especially if you love pizza crust. LAVO Italian restaurant San Diego serves pizzas such as the Angry Maria with Calabrian chili, tomato, vodka sauce, basil pesto, and fresh mozzarella cheese.

Desserts

Notable desserts include the tiramisu or the 20 Layer Chocolate Cake made of chocolate devil’s food cake and peanut butter mascarpone.

Cocktails

Reviewers talk about the Sicilian Cartel with Dos Hombres Mezcal, fresh lime, egg white, and grapefruit cordial. I tried the Amalfi G N'T with Malfy Gin, Fever Tree Tonic, Italicus Bergamont, juniper, laurel bay, and lemon, delightfully botanical!

Clueless is a coming-of-age comedy film from 1995 that's loosely based on Jane Austen's novel Emma. The movie has many iconic fashion moments to draw from. Clueless costume design remains as a time capsule of the 1990s with Cher's iconic yellow plaid outfit, the white Calvin Klein dress, the satiny red Alaïa dress, the black and white gym attire, and so much more. 

* Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links.

Cher Horowitz, played by Alicia Silverstone, gives her that bit of spunk that makes her such a relatable fun character to this day. If you are looking for another costume idea, read my post about Cher's iconic yellow plaid outfit. 

White Calvin Klein Dress

Cher wears a white dress. Here's a somewhat similar dress. Cher's dress has thin spaghetti straps, fits tight around the body, and hits in the mid to upper thigh. Cher wears the dress with chunky white heels that have straps. She has a shiny choker necklace (here is a similar one) and eventually puts on a white sheer top vest dress type of thing.

Recreate the Outfit

Shop for Cher's outfit in this article. I've shared links to products that are as similar as I could find. The style of the white strappy dress transcends 90s fashion and can easily be worn today. You can find different outfits, quality, and even a certain material depending on what the retailers have available.

Make it Your Own Style

Perhaps you want to search for something similar to wear at a party, I've found some items in a similar style that you can pull inspiration from. There are plenty of amazing options to suit your taste and your figure. While Cher wore something pretty short and tight, you can always add your own fresh spin. It can be a longer white tank top dress instead of a strappy dress or a ruffled hem. It can be flowy or a maxi dress. It can be sexy. It can be whatever you want. You can be creative. 

If you need another Clueless outfit idea, try Cher's black and white outfit from the film. I talk about how to recreate it here. You can do a Google or YouTube search to watch other scenes to get inspiration for outfits. They visit the school, spend time at PE with friends, at Cher's house, shopping, and more.

Clueless captures the journey of expressing yourself while also introducing you to the iconic fashion of the 1990s.

Similar Dresses to the Prom Dress Worn by Laney

You can see the slight glittery sheen of Laney's dress. People adore the beautiful sparkly black floor-length prom dress worn by Laney Boggs in the prom scene. It's relatively tight, like a body con dress. The dress has spaghetti straps or very thin straps. She wore it with black drop earrings and a dainty small black purse and from what I can tell black heels. Different designers have made black party dresses in satin, taffeta, tulle. You can opt for a black sleeveless party dress, a strappy one, or even one with sleeves. While Laney's dress was floor-length, you can choose a dress inspired by She's All That that's shorter. She wears her hair is a classic French twist.

It's easy to see why people love these styles again.

What is She's All That About?

Zach Siler (Freddie Prinze Jr.) is one of the most popular guys at his high school. When his cheerleader girlfriend Taylor (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) breaks up with him to date reality TV star Brock Hudson (Matthew Lillard), he finds himself wondering what his next chapter will be. Is there a world after Taylor? Zach chats with his best friend Dean and they end up making a bet that Zach can transform a young woman on campus into the high school prom queen in just six weeks. 

They end up choosing art student, Laney Boggs (Rachael Leigh Cook) and befriend her in order to give her a makeover. She's all that is a comedy and drama that's filled with turmoil, emotions, friendship, and family. The 90s fashion from movies of that era is really cool to see.
