Whit’s End is a casual European-inspired restaurant and bar located in a historic building(formerly Scott’s Market) at the north end of the Whittier neighborhood. It’s known for its comfort-forward, Southern European–inspired menu, blending Italian and broader Western European influences with a relaxed neighborhood vibe. My wife and I recently ate here for the first time. We were impressed with how they transformed a former convenience store to this elegant restaurant. It is elegant, yet casual. My wife ordered the CACIO E PEPE. I ordered the PICCATA. Both were delicious. At the bar there are 2 televisions to view sporting events.
