“The food was delicious and the presentation was like art, the service was excellent, and the ambience of the place itself was beautiful. Visited with a group of friends so we were able to get different plates and try from each others, didn't get to photograph all of them but so good!“
“Great local wine bar! Our server was very friendly and gave us a few recommendations, I went with the pinot noir which was delicious! The atmosphere was great, very chill and cozy. I can't wait to come back and try the small bites they offer!“
“Pasta Sisters is a real treat and on our list of places to dine at whenever we’re in Culver City. Our kids love it here and their pasta always comes out so good. The never ending bread service is amazing as well. Today we tried the Bottarga, Tomato and Basil topped with burrata, and the Truffle from the Not So Secret menu. We took a tiramisu to go because we were so stuffed. Afterwards we walked our pasta off at a few of the furniture stores within walking distance.“
“Love their pasta and order delivery often but had a babysitter last weekend so we got to go to the actual space for the first time. Very lively and cozy and friendly - the staff and clientele alike. We've yet to encounter a dish we haven't loved. The papperdelle and bucatini are my favorites, and our family enjoyed the mushroom fettuccine and lamb gnocchi. The shrimp diavola and the meatballs make excellent sides/starters. All of the desserts are fantastic - pannacotta is a huge hit, tiramisu is on point and Nutella bites are a pretty unique snack-size dessert.“
“Chef Bernhard back in the kitchen again!Great news for LA fans of his truly stellar cooking. All the food was as fabulous as we remember from Bierbeisl. Lustig did not disappoint. Every dish was greeted with groans of delight. It is popular and can get loud inside, but the outside patio tables are nice and quiet. We've been back several times since it opened, and are going again soon.Very highly recommended.“
“In Culver City searching for a latte & randomly opted for Ugo , not knowing anything about the restaurant. I was astonished! Their latte was super deep, rich & creamy in a ceramic cup ! Their pizza had the best crust ever , Napoleon style . The waiter Marian, told me they have teachers from Italy come to the restaurant to review the authenticity of their food to meet genuine Italian standards! So impressed w the Parmesan cheese too ! I'll be back to try more dishes.“

“We loved the Portland location and had high expectations when visiting in LA. Fortunately, Farmhouse Kitchen lived up to its reputation! We visited over lunch which provided a special menu option with soup, appetizers, and entree. Service was impeccable - so friendly and attentive. We'll be back!“
“This place is very close to achieving what it's setting out to do: provide an elegant vegetarian dining experience. I think that might be hard to pull off in a strip mall however. The food and the art are fantastic but the interior design was poorly executed and comes off looking a little cheap. I went for my birthday but for the price this might have been a one time experience. Updated from previous review on 2024-04-06“
“Food and wine selection at AOC is very good. The service is what stood out most. I dined here Monday night and the hostess was very kind. Michael our waiter really made our night. He had great menu and drink recommendations and his positive attitude was so infectious it really made our night. He really set the standard for amazing service. We will be back asap to see him!“
“This is an L.A. bar with an NYC feel…post gentrification. A good place for an intimate situation or for bein’ a gaggle of gays and theys. Not sure about the pricing as I was treated to my libations, but the service was friendly. I appreciated the attentiveness. They have high tops on one side and soft seating on the other with bar seating in between the two.“
“The restaurant needs to buy one can of WD-40 to fix their squeaky front door. Had to wait 20 minutes outside the front door waiting for our table (which was not a big deal) but for the incredibly squeaky front door which opens repeatedly. Everyone waiting for their table was getting a headache. Food was great. I won't return until I know that door is fixed.“
“The influence of Alice Waters and David Tennis is at play in the $45 prix fixe 3-course lunch, simple, elegant and delicious. The rest of the menu, except the desserts and cocktails, looks to be uninterestingly pedestrian. Recently, a salad of thinly shaved manchego, mint, beets and radicchio first course and a perfectly cooked Sea bass, very plump clams, broad beans, and fennel second course in a seafood broth lightly seasoned with dill were superb, as were desserts that our waiter allowed us to substitute for the third course. Highly recommended for lunch.“
“Incredible date night spot! Vibes & music were great all evening. Service was attentive but not overwhelming… would highly recommend!Of course we had the corn bread… it lived up to the hype! Followed that up with the Meatloaf & Trout which both had very unique flavors. We ended with the brown butter chocolate chip cookies & date cake… incredible!!Also the drinks are expensive but it’s LA so it’s to be expected… we really enjoyed ours.20% service charge built into total at the end of the meal!Parking: We valeted - $15 - very easy“
“One of the most authentic and reliable Italian restaurant in Los Angeles. The food has been consistently superior and delicious. What makes it even greater is that it is never overpriced like some other pretentious eateries. I have been there many times and I will go there again!“
“Great views and yummy food. Menu is quite eclectic with an Asian and Middle Eastern twist. Our waitress Jambeth was nice and politely asked us when we sat down if we had a show at the Pantages. That was very thoughtful and much appreciated. As it was we were there for my birthday and so we were not in a rush and could enjoy the skyline and cuisine. Ordered the shrimp cocktail, chicken liver and charred carrot starter. Had Cacio & Pepe, Charmoula and Duck Confit as our main. Was given a complementary dessert as it was my birthday with a candle which was a lovely gesture. Would definitely go back for drinks on summer evening and enjoy the sunset.“
“A Jazz infused Italian gem ! Visited on March 23rd and sat outside in the patio for an early dinner .This restaurant offers Italian dining with an unforgettable ambiance of live Jazz music ! The cozy ambiance paired with great dishes and soulful tunes makes it a must visit for any food and music lover!!“
“"Melanie Wine Bar is an absolute gem! From the cozy ambiance to the exquisite selection of wines, every visit is a delightful experience. The staff are knowledgeable and attentive, always ready to recommend the perfect pairing for your palate. Whether you're a wine aficionado or just looking for a relaxing evening out, Melanie Wine Bar is a must-visit destination. I highly recommend it!"“
“One of my favorite Venice spots! The food is delicious, the service outstanding. Absolutely have the ricotta crostini with the gluten free bread (trust me) and the raw Brussels sprouts salad.Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free options and knowledgeable staff“
“Barrique offers an intimate dining experience with a mix of hits and misses on the menu.The 18-month aged prosciutto and burrata appetizer delighted with its flavors, while the octopus fell short in texture. The standout dish was undeniably the beet pasta, an absolute gem that left a lasting impression. However, the ribeye main dish, though good, suffered from an abundance of fatty pieces, detracting slightly from its overall appeal.The dessert, a Panna cotta with a cherry tart topping, was a delightful conclusion to the meal, showcasing a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess that left me thoroughly satisfied.The ambiance of Barrique is pleasant, and the service is attentive without being overbearing. While not every dish hit the mark, the standout offerings make it worth a visit for those seeking inventive Italian cuisine in Venice. Overall, Barrique provides a solid dining experience that still warrants a recommendation“
“Such a cute little wine bar in the heart of DTLA! My friend and I decided to catch up over early dinner here. We ordered the coldbrew martini and the non-alcoholic prosecco. We also shared the caesar salad, meatballs, piquillo peppers, and the margherita flatbread. Everything was delicious and tasty. We were pleased with everything we ordered. There's indoor and outdoor seating available. Our service was efficient. There is no free parking available, but we paid to park in a lot nearby.“
“An outstanding evening - great food, excellent, informative & fun Server (Thanks, Maria!). Nice vibe. Cozy space. Counter is fun. AND - who would have ever imagined we'd try “Orange Wine” (don't be a chicken like me - it's actually a whole new experience) ?. Really nice.“
“401K is a Celiac's dream. Their exclusively gluten-free menu is fantastic--I've never been disappointed by a dish. It is impossible to tell their bread products/desserts are gluten-free, and their menu is thoughtful and varied. The ambiance is wonderful, whether you're inside or on their (dog-friendly!) patio, and the staff is lovely. I'd frequent 401K even without gluten restrictions; as someone with Celiac, 401K is an absolute game-changer.“
“I can't say enough about the food, service and extremely professional staff. There were 6 in our party and the server didn't miss a beat. Such a memorable evening. The food and wine, exceptional. If you want to impress friends, family and/or clients, dine here.“
“LA MUST GO! Everything we ordered from the scallops to the jamon and the mushrooms were delicious. And the spicy calabrese pizza was SOO good. The presentation of the food was also a treat. The service was great, the ambiance was cozy and quaint, and the owner was as generous and kind as could be. We had an exceptional experience and will be returning soon.“
“Amazing amazing spot. Even non vegans would love this place, everything is truly delicious. The wine is great too. The staff are so friendly; Trevor was our server and he was an absolute gem. Can’t wait to go back. You can’t miss this place!“
“We wanted to taste some wines and have a good time, this place was a great experience. The server Ross was outstanding and help us found the wine that we like the most. There a few boarding games you can use while enjoying your wine and cheese board.“
“Our experience at this restaurant was top notch. The food was excellent, but the service was perfect. They were so nice and accommodating. It was literally the best restaurant for kids, even though they don't have a children's menu! They offered half portions of pasta for our kids, and made a special "plain" dish for my picker eater. They also were very patient and helpful in dealing with a food allergy. Casual dress was just fine, although the interior and the food feel "fancy." The location is extremely convenient (just around the corner) if you are staying at the SLS hotel. Highly recommended.“
“Although known for their delicious pizzas. Their salads are Delish!!! Especially the Brussels, and Cesar. The fried artichoke appetizer is a treat! The Bolognese is exceptionally yummy! End with the Carmel Panacotta, you won't be sorry!“
“I’ve visited the WeHo location but tried the Silverlake one and was NOT disappointed.The Cacio e Pepe pizza is one of the best pizzas I’ve had in my life. (Although, I have not been to Italy)I think about that Parmesan creama often lol.But I literally drove an hour to have this pizza.The server was attentive, gave thoughtful (and delicious) recommendations, and made for a great experience.Note: Parking sucks - but where does it not in LA? I found a spot on the street but there is also metered parking as well.TL;DR - Exceptional pizza and good service. True S tier pizza.“
“Casual but nice. Service and staff are very kind and knowledgeable. Recommended wine based on my preferences.Food was very good but I think they put cream in the carbonara… and a poached egg on top. I’ve seen this at other LA restaurants- not sure why it’s a thing.Good portion sizes.“
“I found the dining experience disappointing overall. The bacon and polenta lacked flavor and presentation, especially considering the hefty price tag of $7 on the bacon. The French toast was overcooked and had a wet, eggy center. However, the chocolate almond croissant stood out. The homemade blueberry coffee cake was dry and lacked flavor. While the portions were generous, the quality didn't justify the $40+ per person price.On the brighter side, the hazelnut cookie was a highlight, especially when warmed up. The beignet lacked flavor and had a dense texture reminiscent of a donut, rather than the desired lightness. The fries and aioli were enjoyable, offering a satisfying combination.Despite the culinary disappointments, Sarah, the owner, was exceptional, and the interior decoration provided a stunning backdrop for a group gathering. While the food may not have been memorable, the ambiance and company can make the experience worthwhile. It all depends on your preference and priority for brunching.“
“Our first time to this beautiful restaurant . We tried the tasting menu! WOW was it amazing. Loved learning about the wines. Had the featured drink of the week by Finn. loved it. It was garnished with a petite flower. My only regret is I got full and couldn't eat it all. Thank you to Matt our server for a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back. The lobster pie was so creamy and delicious. The steak was so flavorful and tender.“
“Nossa Caipirinha Bar offers an authentic Brazilian experience right in the heart of Los Feliz. My partner and I recently indulged in a late-night adventure at this vibrant establishment, and we were thoroughly impressed.From the moment we entered, we were greeted by the lively beats of Brazilian music, instantly transporting us to the streets of Rio. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with warm décor adding to the immersive experience.The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the cocktails. Each drink was meticulously crafted with quality ingredients, perfectly capturing the essence of Brazilian flavors. Whether it was the classic caipirinha or one of their signature creations, every sip was a delight for the senses.As the night progressed, the bartender recommended we try Brazilian fernet, and we're glad we did. It was a bold and flavorful choice that left a lasting impression, showcasing the bar's dedication to offering unique and authentic experiences.Overall, Nossa Caipirinha Bar exceeded our expectations, delivering not only exceptional drinks but also a memorable cultural journey. Whether you're a connoisseur of Brazilian cuisine or simply looking for a lively atmosphere to unwind, Nossa Caipirinha Bar is a must-visit destination. Obrigado for an unforgettable evening!“
“Go inside and a you’ll be magnetized. The setting is pleasing, comfortable and elegant. There are tables of differing sizes depending on party size. The barista was great- he made me a wonderful matcha w honey drink that was delicious. The food was great. French omelette is yum. Loved the service“
“On this beautiful day, I came out to Bacari for my sisters birthday! The food was delicious, the service was awesome! Everyone here has a calm and inviting personality. Nolan was our server, who did an amazing job. He made my mom smile and had great menu suggestions .“
“The Ruby Fruit is a place where I feel like I can breathe and truly relax. The wine here is delicious and the bartenders could not be nicer or more welcoming! Truly a rare space for this community and worth a visit if you're from out of town!“
“Bodega has best of both worlds! You can grab a coffee and get some work done or you can grab a glass of wine and catch up with friends. I love coming here for both! Also their pizza is the best pizza in LA in my opinion ! At 5pm everyone puts their laptops away and it turns into an actual wine bar! LOVE IT ! Service is great! Ambiance is so cool! Lots of natural light which gives it a coffee shop feel! There's tall tables, a long bar and also couches to sit. They also have an outside patio for those warm sunny days !“
“Had a good stop-in at Covell with friends. We found an open table and enjoyed the ordering process - the bartenders are so kind and happy to allow you to taste the different wines. I ended up rocking their IPA on tap (Almanac brewing from Alameda) but they had a vast selection of wines + craft beers in cans as well.Good vibes, good lighting, soft music, perfect for a chill evening with friends!Vegetarian options: Most options“
“The welcoming was excellent by the manager and the flexibility to change from outdoor to indoor seating. The food was great. The steak was perfectly cooked and the octopus was tender and savory. The green beans were the exception to the excellence. They were too spicy and it tasted oddly. Manager made it right for us. Thank you!“
“The staff were absolutely amazing! They were very knowledgeable on the menu items and made me feel special. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and the experience they have. They all worked as a team to ensure the best possible service. The food was great, and the timing was perfect. I would definitely recommend this place, and if I am ever back in the area will be sure to stop!“

“I’m sure the food is great. Chef Antonia is five stars. Didn’t know any better ther way to tell her. She was robbed on TOC. You are an inspiration to everyone you come in contact with. Keep doing what you do and F the negativity. Stay safe and thank you. ❤️❤️❤️“
“A high quality spot right off the boardwalk. The pastas and steak were fantastic. The menu always has new items worth trying. The staff are friendly, know the menu inside and out, and have great suggestions. The squash blossoms are a go-to appetizer but honestly everything is good. I noticed a few customers had dietary restrictions and the staff came out with a menu marked with notes to help them order. Super nice!Vegetarian options: Can ask staff for custom orderDietary restrictions: Can order custom - they will mark the menu with what they can accommodateParking: Limited parking with free street and valet nearbyWheelchair accessibility: All one level with ramps“
“This is a really nice location if you want to be in the luxury stores and restaurants. The rooms are lovely decorated. But... I do not recommend this hotel for you to stay, even if it is renewed and renowned, the staff at the terrace restaurant is slow and not really willing to help you, the only one really nice is BRYAN if you go ask for him.The room quality is ok the drapes do not close so you'll sleep with a ray of light, the pillows are awful and they can't do anything to solve the problem. At the valet only if you ask twice they will assist you. They have a lot of things to work on in order to be truly five stars. So far it is like an expensive four star hotel.Nearby activities: Just nearby activities.“
“A restaurant full of energy. From the chefs to the service staff, the owners, and the music, everything is charged with vitality. The dishes are fantastic, and the fish is freshly caught by the owner. The wine and champagne selection is good, and you can have any wine from the shelf chilled on ice. Fantastic.“
“This is my favorite wine bar near Hollywood.I was told by a friend who lives locally that this is a great wine bar that tourists never get to visit.The food is delicious, the atmosphere inside the restaurant is stylish, and it makes me smile to see each customer having a wonderful time, making the meal enjoyable.I came here by myself, worked on my computer, read a book with a glass of wine, went on a date with friends or as a couple, everything was a wonderful space.All the wines taste extremely delicious. The atmosphere is also very good. The staff's customer service is also very polite and kind, and I definitely want to come back!The white wine I ordered was so delicious that I bought it as a souvenir ?There is also a wine shop attached, and if you can buy what you drank at the shop, there is also a large selection of organic wine produced in California, so I think you can choose and buy there.Anyway, it's a very nice wine bar!It's my favorite! Please go and try it!Wheelchair accessibility: There are no elevators or anything, just sofa seats.“
“The food was phenomenal. Came here for my son’s birthday and we were both blown away . I’ve eaten at countless top notch steak houses and this place is right up there with the best .The oysters = excellentlobster bisque = outstandingBrussels sprouts = wowVeal tomahawk chop =next levelThe only thing that wasn’t amazing was the bread they brought out at the beginning, but who cares ?! I left smacking my lips, it was that good …“
“A hidden gem! The food is to die for and the service is amazing. All the pasta dishes I’ve posted here are also kid approved!!! Generous serving of each dish so we didn’t get a chance to try any desserts, but I’m told they are also really tasty ? ?“
“We passed the restaurant about three weeks ago and it has now become one of our favorites for our date nights? The bar service is great, the chicken wings are the best and the steak meal is delicious! Our most recent visit with friends, the place was packed with customers and the vibe was so nice with a variety of people! It's close, convenient and also the valet attendants are excellent!“
“This was an adorable place for pastries and lunch. There is free parking in the structure nearby, and paid street parking around. My partner and I split the Chilaquiles, which was phenomenal with fresh and crisp chips. The pastry we ordered was an apple danish of some sort, and that was delightful as well. You order in the front before self seating, and enjoying a laid-back time with yourself or your friends. The staff were super friendly. The prices were quite high, but understandable for the location and quality of food.“
