The title about says it all. I'm looking for hearty, "family style" places to take the in-laws this weekend. As far as I can tell, American Continental and Italian seem to be what they eat the most, and Mexican sometimes. Some past "successes" have been Louise's Trattoria (big hit), Islands, and a local pizza joint. Any suggestions? Thanks! Stephanie

Looks to be a tongue-in-check tropical decor. I've never been myself, but it looks like a good place to entertain in-laws. -- Scott T.

Last time I tried to go there for a flaming slushie drink, I discovered that it had turned into a *very* trendy dance club. I've since heard that the club gig has moved on to another locale, but it's possible that the Kelbo's management has replaced it with something equally un-fun for parents. I think the Kelbo's on Fairfax near CBS is still safe... -Edson

Marina Del Rey has quite a few places on the water. Open the yellow pages. You can take them to Mexican, Asian, or American... and more. El Toritos (sp?) is on the water, and has a great view of the marina.

Edson mentioned a Kelbo's near CBS on Fairfax. Where in the heck is it? I used to frequent that area quite a bit, but I never saw that. SF PS Thanks for the suggestions. I've at least got my SO convinced to try the

Last time I was at Kelbo's (quite a while ago), it was pretty darn strange; NOT the kind of place to take straight-laced in-laws. My date later described the experience as "flaming tropical drinks from flaming tropical waiters." I myself thought the place was a lot of fun, but no way would I take my saintly mother-in-law. Jeff
