Woodland Hills
FCA-SW's late-summer ritual brought back after a few years off — a drive together to a restaurant where the parking lot becomes its own concours.
The FCA-SW announces the return of Italian Night for 2026. A long time favorite of our club, and originally led by past president Kenny Lombino, this was our annual end-of-summer drive to a gourmet Italian restaurant. It’s been off our calendar for a few years, but now this event is back, bigger and better than ever. THE DETAILS We will start in Woodland Hills and drive the scenic back roads of Thousand Oaks and North Ranch to the Rustico Italian Restaurant for a first class Italian meal designed by chef Roberto. Dinner will consist of four courses, all expertly prepared by authentic Italian chefs. And we will dine in a separate private room elegantly outfitted like a restaurant you might find in Milan or Naples. There is also an impressive variety of wines and spirits available but not included. This will be a great evening with fun roads, delicious food and our usual FCA camaraderie. Signing up for the dinner is on a “First Come” basis so please do so as soon as possible to avoid missing out on the event. There will be dedicated, secure parking for our Ferraris. Where: 23335 Mulholland Drive, Woodland Hills CA 91364 (Drive Meet Up) When: Sunday, September 6th @ 5:00PM Cost: $110.00 per person for the specially prepared 4-course dinner. Dinner cost includes all taxes, tip and service fees. Refunds: $20.00 cancellation fee by August 15th. No refunds after August 15th. Last day to sign up is the earlier of August 15th or when the event sells out. THE FOOD Starting with wood-fired pizza appetizers, then a Caesar salad, followed by the main course which will be your choice of six hour braised beef short ribs, medallions of chicken, fillet of sole or eggplant parmigiana, ending with a house made tiramisu dessert.
