“This is the real deal Italian food folks. Your not gonna find much better anywhere else. We had ordered a pizza through DoorDash and while back and it was amazing so we just had to go in person and we were not disappointed. Girlfriend had their Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo that was smooth, creamy and oh so delicious. I had their Meat Balls and Spaghettis that was the bomb! All home made. The garlic bread was totally awesome! Do yourselves a favor and get over there a.s.a.p. You'll be glad you did.“
“3rd visit - Obsessed! Innovate cuisine and meticulous cocktails at the level everywhere else wishes they could. Negroni - All time fav because the bitter punches hard (sometimes too hard). This is the best I've had! Bitter and sweet balance exquisitely - not brusque. Crispy Potatos - Well done, but makes you wonder if size is right. Close to being a french fry - but large! Crispy outside, soft inside, well seasoned. Mildly curious aioli pair well. Not perfect. Maybe needs another sauce? Seared Hokkaido Scallops - Scared green curry would overpower delicate scallops, but texture remains in tact. Curry pulls out creaminess. Delicate, but flavorful. Warm and clean. Scallion paratha is so necessary to give heavy depth! Cheesecake - Yooo!! Creme Brule is my fav and this is rivaling it! Bright and tart while velvety with deep. Not heavy! You'll regret not getting. Martini - A must every visit! I love olives, but tried lemon this time and loved how big of a difference it made! Excited to try gibson/onion next!“
“Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and Amanda saw to it that we had a wonderful experience. She was so welcoming and helpful. Many places have incredible drinks but if the service doesn't match, who knows if you'll remember it a few months down the road. The service is what makes people come back! She nailed it.The cocktails were delicious as well, we are familiar with the craft cocktail scene and these drinks were on point and an awesome price! Ambience was spot on too.Next time we are in LA we will return!“
“We liked it a lot! I went with my family, and all the dishes we ordered were very well served and delicious. We ordered birria, a fish fillet, some tacos, chicken fajitas and Menudo. Excellent service and the place is very cozy.I highly recommend this place!!“
“Magianos Little Italy is a true gem in the world of Italian dining! From the moment you walk through the door, you are greeted with the warmest of welcomes and a cozy inviting atmosphere.The menu at Magianos is a culinary delight. The dishes are bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients.Not only is the food exceptional, but the service at Magianos is top-notch. The staff is friendly and attentive. We were a party of eight and the waiters and staff truly went above and beyond and made us feel like VIP.The reason for this review is because of the manager Boyd. His passion for food and customer satisfaction shined through in his interactions with both guests and staff. He was knowledgeable about the menu, offering insightful recommendations and ensuring that each dish was prepared and presented to perfection. His dedication to excellence elevated the overall dining experience to a whole new level.Boyd is an example of what a manager in the hospitality industry should aspire to be. His passion, professionalism, and dedication to creating unforgettable dining experiences make him an invaluable asset to the restaurant. I cannot recommend him enough and look forward to returning and enjoying his exceptional service and of course the amazing dishes.“
“Gourmet food court with a relevant bar. How can it go wrong? It doesn't. Everything I've tried so far is top notch, inventive, and delicious. Incredible pizza from D Town, and great sushi from Temaki. And I'm a sushi snob. Downside is that it's all kind of pricey, but it's worth it.“
“Always the go to for a simple yet lively and fun time with friends and great food! Chad is always a ray of sunshine when he is there...an extra bonus! And Gen is such a on it server. You just can not beat the vibe there, great service, great food...and you are always walking out making new friends! I can't think of a negative time here....and tonight was just another kick ass fun times!! If you ever need a place that is accomodating to parties, celebrations, or just to unwind...this is it!“
“Great drinks! A little loud inside but they have a great outside patio where you can play some games and chat. Inside they got gaming consoles and games to play at the booths! Great activities to do while you wait, and the staff are very attentive! Loved the calm fun “
“I've been coming here to Bodevi many times this past year. I was so stoked when I found out they serve wine AND espresso. I initially was drawn to their WINE FLIGHTS and VEGAN CHARCUTERIE. But lately maybe because of the cold weather I've been craving their LOX & CREAM CHEESE TOAST and BLUEBERRY GINGER LATTE. They pay really great attention to detail because my lox toast is perfectly spread all the way to the edges. The salmon perfectly scrunched for texture (not just laid out flat) and topped with sliced red onions. Then drizzled with oil I think and perfectly garnished with dill and capers...yumm!! Love the orange slices as well! The blueberry ginger latte is so unique and pretty! It has a richness to it like mocha but perfectly balanced. I get mine with oat milk. And I love seeing actual blueberries on it to give it a nice finishing touch. Get this before they switch out their seasonal menu! Once the weather warms up I may go back to trying their wine flights again. I recommend THE DAVID BOWIE so you can have the assortment of white, rose, and red if you're trying their wines for the first time. Other items I definitely recommend are the BURRATA PISTACHIO SANDWICH (I get mine minus the prosciutto to make it vegetarian) , the VEGAN DELI SANDWICH, and the DEVILED EGGS. You can't go wrong with those. They're delicious! They even have an assortment of board games, chess, and checkers that you can play in the private room in the back. So chic and charming for big parties! Service is wonderful! My lattes always come out perfect here made by Caleb and Melissa! And like I said they pay attention to detail. There's also a self serve water station by the bar. Parking is FREE in the back parking lot. Front parking you have to pay for with coins not credit cards. Such an absolute GEM in San Fernando!“

“Every time I visit LA I stop by Spitz for a Mediterranean falafel wrap and half and half fries. It is always consistent, fresh, flavorful and filling. I crave the falafel wrap when I'm back home on the East Coast but haven't found anything that compares.“
“I had so much fun watching the 49ers here on Sunday. Such great vibes and I am definitely looking forward to watching the Super Bowl at the oaks. Solid group of San Francisco fans and the game is on a lot of TVs so you can see it all from any seat. Hannah the bartender is rad!“
“This is what happens when you support shitty businesses like Tendergreens studio city. Mazza actually had great food, nice ambiance, kind staff, and good music too. They didn't deserve to close! We need to do better. Never forgiving this community for actively supporting the business next door that has numerous health issues and bad service. I hope Mazza can come back one day.“

“MY FAVORITE LA BAR!!! My review is loooong overdue as I've been coming here for years. I've moved further South on Ventura but I still manage to come to what I feel is my home in bar form. I'm a woman who loves mixology and good bartending and most bars are extremely male centric. TLP is great for women and men. It wouldn't surprise me that many women love this bar. You will hear everyone mention "the feel" of the bar and it's because they seem to consistently hire AMAZING BAR AND WAIT STAFF. Kudos to management for keeping such excellent consistency. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME..I come to the bar I sit at the bar and get an INCREDIBLE convo from the bartenders. They always serve me the most fantastic drinks and make me feel like a FUGGIN QUEEN. I love them so much for this. They manage people well and that's hard to come by. Even if I've had a bad day they seem to always say the thing that lifts my spirits -- it's wild. Therapy in a bar almost. lol Keep up the good work guys! See you again soon.“

“Excellent food, I had the smash burger, my friend the blackened salmon. It was a fun and really loud crowd. No problem getting seated. The staff was very professional and no pressure.Parking: Valet fills up quickly at busy times. I was so full they had to close it before I arrived. Very little street parking at busy times, and the area looks a little suspect.“
“Sofi Daniela and Helsy are excellent and very friendly, they respectfully serve each of their clients. I recommend coming to this place after a long day of work to relax and have a chat with the girls…Sincerely from your friends at Kalaveras.! ????“
“A great atmosphere, I enjoyed the games on TV, it was Tequila Tuesday which was just fine by me, and the food was delicious! Absolutely a great time, I'm really glad that I went there for dinner. The server was fast, kind, and explained the menu to me. They only have Teramasu and 2 scoops of ice cream with liquor, not much of a desert place, but there was a lot around for sweets. Overall, I will definitely be coming back here with more people. On the left was the Blue Cheese Burger, and on the right was the Pastrami Jalapeño Burger. Their Chipotle Mayo was smokey to the taste, which was excellent.“
“Had a cracking time at Rose & Crown this weekend. Perfect little local pub with a cozy atmosphere. Snagged a seat at the bar, which got a bit busy at times since there's no dedicated bartender, but the staff did a great job keeping everyone served.More importantly, the drinks were spot on! Enjoyed smooth pours of Guinness, a refreshing ale, and a perfectly balanced Black Velvet (kudos to whoever mixed that!). Topped it all off with some delicious fish and chips – a classic done right.Our local friendly pub with a good selection of beers and tasty pub fare!“
“Awesome burgers. Awesome beer selection. Awesome attentive, friendly staff. We spent some time in the back bar area recently and had an absolute blast. The smash burgers are out of this world. Service was second to none. We'll be back.“
“I went to Bar 10 to see Maiden USA. They were amazing! I am so impressed with the transformation of this music/bar venue. The stage was completely redone and much bigger. All new speakers made the sound terrific. Such a huge improvement since I was here last. I will definitely go again in the future!“
“I recently dined at Angelino Trattoria and had an amazing experience. The Roma pizza was absolutely delicious, with its perfect combination of flavors and a crispy crust that was just right. The mussels were cooked to perfection and the ravioli was filled with a delightful blend of ingredients that left me wanting more. The beet apple salad was a refreshing and unique dish that added a nice touch to my meal. Overall, everything I ordered at Angelino Trattoria was wonderful. The quality of the food, the attentive service, and the cozy atmosphere all contributed to an exceptional dining experience. I highly recommend this trattoria to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.“
“Went for a drive and a hike today. Ended up finding this wonderful little hole-in-the-wall bar. Letty/Lettie (sorry if I spelled that incorrectly) was so awesome! Super friendly and made us feel like regulars. Smiles and has conversations like you know her. Her attention to clients is 100%. I've worked in small bars for years so I know how they can sometimes be. It was a very relaxed atmosphere and really clean. I didn't play pool but they have a table. My only complaint is if you don't know the area Google maps does a horrible job of telling you where it is. For such a small area I didn't feel crowded. Will totally go again if I'm in the area. Thank you for the great experience!“
“Larsens is number one in SoCal for me. I like Flemings but Larsens is still The One❤️. I gave three stars on service because I grabbed a table in the lounge and waited maybe 9-10 mins ppl walking around it wasnt busy and nobody came to my table, went back to the front to make a change and the host (1 of 4ppl) could have done better at grabbing me a seat in the very empty dinning room instead of going through it to the point that I almost bailed. My server was on point and I appreciated that! I ordered 2 Rib Eye Steaks to conpare the 18 oz to the 20 oz… 18 won ALL THE WAY! I took them both to go. Thanks Larsens see you again soon“
“A very positive dining experience. The staff is awesome and the food delicious. From your first visit you're treated like an old friend. They even remembered my name after my first visit. Don't miss out, give this place a try, you won't be disappointed. “
“Was highly recommended for me to come here from a close friend and definitely lived up to the praise she gave. The service was amazing and food was great. Our server and barkeep was Scott and he was wonderful and made the experience there so much better. The ambiance was great too, I love quiet and intimate spaces where you can truly focus on whomever your with without have to speak over loud music or heavy chatter. Lighting really elevated the feel as well. Price wise, itd be considered pricier than normal but I do think it's worth it. Will definitely be coming back.“
“Consistently fantastic. Been coming here monthly for 3+ years now, literally never had a bad time. Owner regularly chats me and my wife/friends up. All of the staff have been here for a long time and are super helpful. Great atmosphere, food is consistently good, and they always have a big selection of beers on tap. Can't go wrong with paragon!Parking: Easy. Plenty.Kid-friendliness: It has a bar but it's not rowdy or anything. My six year old comes here.Wheelchair accessibility: First floor, all flat“
“Great food, great service. And nice atmidphere. Even though we were in a corner booth, the waiter made sure our glasses were full and checked on us often. Food is always good here. Love the salsa! Jase always waves from the bar. It feels like the staff actually cate that you're there.Parking: Excellent!“

“The staff are all friendly beer freaks and they’re excited to point you towards the stuff they like. Hyper-curated taps and a massive can selection that changes constantly. Add in the fact that dogs are welcome and you have the perfect beer bar. No food, just trucks, but I’m giving the food five stars out of runaway enthusiasm.Parking: Parking lot is off the alley behind the bank next door, but there’s lots of it.“
“Don't miss this amazing gem hiding in plain sight on Ventura Blvd! This wine bar is your next happy hour or late night stop. My husband surprised me with our first visit, and upon first glance, I thought we were strolling up to the Tipsy Cow. When we deviated to the entrance of Buvette, I was surprised by an understated front door but immediately delighted with a beautiful interior. We sat at the bar, but the booths were gorgeous and intimate. My husband got the Granacha and I got the Moschofilero - both were delicious and easy-drinking. There are specific wines on the happy hour menu, so be sure to ask. And although not on the physical HH menu, the QR code on the back revealed an online HH menu with the "Adult Lunchable". Between the free bar mix (corn nuts, crunchy chickpeas and Lima beans??), and the Lunchable, it was a perfect amount of food between the two of us to keep it light but to feel satiated. Sam was behind the bar when we were there and she was so nice! We can't wait to come back to this beautiful bar and try more from their specially curated list of wines!TIPS: Street parking only. If you really love wine and wanna get your fill outside of your typical wine choices, consider signing up for their Wine Club!“
“I did not eat so I’m not sure if this place offers food. The drinks are affordable and they have live bands play. I saw “Animal sleep” and they were a chaotic group which happened to be really good.. I would see them again and I would also attend this bar againParking: You can find parking along the one way driveway following around the back“
“Loved the delicious cheeseburger, hot crispy sandwich, and calamari. Can't go wrong with these! The service was so so. It took 2 servers to make us happy if that tells you something... refilling water and getting side items in a timely matter.“
“Anyone who says this isn't a cool place to hang is just wrong! I love this bar! The staff is great and the drinks are relatively cheap and the vibe is amazing. So chill. Good music. Seen some cool bands play here. One of my faves! Also an amazing location to shoot a film. Ask the owner about renting the place out.“

“Bar Louie is fun they have a DJ on Fridays and Saturdays. There is no cover and every time I've been there I've been seated very quickly. There's ample parking and the plus is there is also Yard house around the corner. I usually order the Dos Sauz margarita. The truffle fries are delicious as well. It's a good place to get the night started.“
“Loved this little diner. It was our first time there and we weren't disappointed. The waiters were friendly and patient as we weren't sure what to order. Our waiter was very accommodating to my order as well. It was quiet and clean, and there was plenty of seating inside. I'm not sure how it gets on the weekends as we went during the week.“
“Loved coming to this place after a date night. I recommend coming to this place after dinner to play some games and get some drinks. They have some fun drink options and it's LGBTQ+ friendly! The games are classic and entertaining and not expensive. Very nostalgic and sweet. The staff were friendly as well. Hope they stay open forever.“
“wow, Casalena restaurant it was amazingly delicious !Great cuisine! open ceiling concept they also have a great patio seating overall a wonderful ambiance . Great service. We celebrated our friend bday and cocktails and dessert get an A+ FYI this restaurant gets busy. Reservation is highly recommended. A little pricey but aren't we worth it ? highly recommended“
“This place is really cool... great vibe and not overly crowded. Definitely would have given it 5 stars but they allow smoking on the small patio and the whole area becomes rather unpleasant. I'm definitely going back but I'll be drinking inside.“
“Omg, we ended up at this restaurant looking for another one, it was a blessing in disguise. The food is amazing, we all had different dishes and we all loved them. The mango margarita was the bomb. Our waiter Juan was so attentive and courteous. I will be coming “
“Amazing service provided by our waitress Maria. The hostess let us sit wherever we wanted due to no traffic. Monday at 1:00pm are perfect to miss large crowds. We had bacon shrimp wraps, guacamole, bacon burger and the bbq sliders. All delicious and well made.Parking: When the parking is full head over to the in-n-out and park there. It's just a street apart.“
“This place is absolutely amazing! The food is just incredible and the view is breathtaking. I can't get enough of the delicious dishes they serve here. The drinks are also top-notch and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. Overall, everything about this place is just great. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience.“
“Honestly this is the best time in town to relax, have a drink and a bite to eat. Everything about this place is class. They make great strong drinks and the food is better than you would expect. Not to mention their happy hour is definitely the best in the area and available from 3-6 m-f. I love their Smash burger and brisket tacos. Their wings and pies are good too. Brian is the best I’m sure you will meet him if you frequent this place like I do. He always makes you feel comfortable and is very friendly and genuine.Great for watching sports even though the vibe isn’t a sports bar. It’s a classy establishment.“
“Really beautiful restaurant and our service was very good. Our waitress was very polite and informative about the area and answered all of our questions. The food however, must be like this because of the demographic. But we were expecting a more authentic Mexican experience. It was enjoyable but not exactly Mexican food more fusion. Will definitely return for the atmosphere though!!“

“My companion and I ordered the rack of lamb, which came with mashed potatoes and vegetables. The lamb was delightfully seasoned and so tender! The mashed potatoes, though a small portion, were delicious, as were the fresh vegetables, broccoli and carrots.  For dessert we ordered carrot cake. What a huge portion !!  It tasted fresh and quite yummy! Our server was excellent, and kept coming around to see if we needed anything. The place itself is very historic, could use a fresh coat of paint, but the ambience was lovely.“
“We went in for an early lunch. Got to the store about 5 minutes before opening. It was a little brisk out. The manager saw us out front and let us wait in the lobby to get out of the cold. Very nice and unexpected. Our server was pleasant. Started with the cheese curd appetizer. It was filling. Grilled salmon was cooked correctly fresh and flavorful. Tried the vampire spicy pork tacos. Ordered three. They were delicious and filling. Took one home, not good reheated. Craving for good ol fish & chips. Nice batter and flakey. Upgraded to parmesan fries. All meals were delicious. Recommend a visit.“
“First time at Woodranch, and I would definitely go back. The server Jennifer was amazing, and honestly, she's given us such wonderful service. It's been a minute since we've come across someone who looks happy doing what they are doing.“
“Was told the kitchen was already closed when we arrived but then a group of 3 that walked in after us was able to order some fries which is what we had wanted. Got an old fashioned and a Diablo. Old fashioned was good and on the stronger side. Karaoke was going on. There were a lot of people but had no trouble getting a seat and it didn't feel crowded. The bartender (I think Mike?) was nice and checked in even though it was busy.“
“We come to Valencia once a year and we always eat here, sometimes twice. Prices are good and the portions are great. Food is excellent! They have the most amazing Cobb salad. Service has always been great. Even when busy the kitchen is fast. Our server Alvaro was fast and super polite.“
“Beautiful location at The Vineyards At Porter Ranch. I ordered the St. Louis Ribs and Fried Chicken Combo with French Fries and BBQ Baked Beans. Everything tasted good and not overly seasoned. I will definitely go back and try some other dishes.“
“Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Pineapple Hill, and it was an incredible experience with my friends. The locally sourced foods were incredibly fresh and delicious, perfectly complemented by the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Their hospitality made our visit truly memorable, and I'm already looking forward to returning next week for another delightful meal.“
“Stopped by the backdrop lounge while waiting for some friends and I just say your bartender was awesome !!! She not only is friendly and approachable she is very knowledgeable about the area. She recommended places to go dancing, watch comedy shows and made my waiting fly bye. Will definitely be coming back to be served the best chilled drinks by Olivia !!“
“The Sugar Suite is a hidden gem for those seeking a dive bar experience with character. Tucked away in a dimly lit corner, its old-world decor and slightly damp aroma add to its allure. Despite its somewhat gloomy ambiance, there's a welcoming vibe that draws in both regulars and the curious. The drinks are served with care, and the bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable. It's the perfect spot to unwind after a long day or to explore for those with an adventurous spirit.“
