“Get your ex lover back today“

“A very delicious wrapped shawarma. The sauce is tasty, and the meat is super fresh and marinated. Personally, I would have added more vegetables. But overall, I really enjoyed it. The staff is very welcoming and friendly; they speak English, Armenian, and Russian. I recommend it 100%.“

“The prices here are amazing. So is the taste of the food. The chicken teriyaki is absolutely delicious. It is very tender, juicy and soft yet well cooked. The beef tastes way better than the one in the yoshinoya. The prices are so good here. Customer service is awesome too. Food comes out fast and they give you big portions.“

“Sushi Monster – Montrose

We had a great experience at Sushi Monster in Montrose. From start to finish, everything felt relaxed, welcoming, and well taken care of.

The rolls were the standout — beautifully presented, generous portions, and packed with flavor. Each roll tasted fresh and well-balanced, without being overpowered by sauces. The nigiri and sashimi were equally impressive, clearly made with quality fish and attention to detail.

What really elevated the meal, though, was the attentive and friendly service. Our server was knowledgeable, checked in at the right moments, and made thoughtful recommendations without ever feeling rushed or pushy. It made the entire experience feel genuinely enjoyable.

If you’re looking for a reliable local sushi spot with excellent rolls and great service, Sushi Monster is absolutely worth a visit. We’ll definitely be back. 🍣“

“Best açaí ever!! They literally let you pick unlimited toppings, comparatively to other açaí places I have ordered from, they charge me $2 per extra topping after 3 toppings. And the staff is so friendly! What else could you want from a neighborhood açaí shop? 10/10 I wish I lived in the area so I could go everyday. Love yall!!“

“This has got to be my absolute favorite place to come to in La Crescenta for a bite to eat. Everything on their menu is so delicious. My absolute favorite are there burgers. The meat always taste so fresh along with the produce. Not to mention they have the best fried. The customer service is always on point. You can tell they hsve pride in ownership here. If you’re looking for a nice place to have brunch or lunch this is definitely the place. Thank you for always an amazing experience here.“

“muy buen servicio, y buen ambiente.“

“Since Or Bar opened in the old Gold Coast space, it has become my favorite local place. Good drinks, great people. I love all of the staff here!“

“UPDATE: I also got a Californian sandwich to go at the suggestion of the girl working there and I just finished that one at home and now that one is my favorite too???!! My official recommendation: the Californian is a nice cold deli sandwich for a hot day, and the Smokey is a great, warm sandwich for cooler weather.

The girl working there suggested The Smokey and holy cow I think this is the greatest sandwich Ive ever had in my life.“

“Fabulous chicken Sando!!! Absolutely delicious. Everyone is ALWAYS SO FRIENDLY. I try and go as often as I can. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“Lovely people and food!!!“

“Visiting LA this week and had a fab time at the Clark Street Diner, excellent food😋“

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩“

“Villa's Tacos were amazing! and I'm not saying this just because of the hype of the Super Bowl. I'm saying this because I mean it. The tacos were just amazing to me. Not your regular everywhere tacos. These tacos were homemade recipes. I had the carne asada, pork with potato (puerco con papa) & beans with cactus (frijoles con nopal). It's a week later that I tried these tacos and I can't stop talking about them. My favorite was the beans with cactus. Soooo good. Also, the atmosphere was just so nice and lively. I truly enjoyed every minute of my visit here. Thank you Villa's Tacos, we will return.“

“The atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was delicious. However, the service was disappointing. Our server was condescending and repeatedly interrupted our moment by crossing between us without a word. When I asked about drinks, she was short and even gave inaccurate descriptions. This is my second visit, and both times with the same server have left a sour taste. I hope the service improves because the food deserves better! This is my second visit, and both times with the same brunette server, whose attitude left a sour taste.“

“The little plates are yummy. I love the pita bread that came with the hummus (Salatim plate). The other plates were good also. I loved the bread pudding (I think it's better than the best cake). What I like the most about Bacari, besides the beautiful ambiance, is the friendliest staff.“

“5 rating Vegan Delicious Pizza!! Slices, full pies, caesar salad, garlic knots, all house-made ingredients. cashew-based cheese. loved it!! As of October 2022, opened for 8 mos.“

“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.“

“Our family had an excellent meal at Mother Wolf last night. The pasta was out of this world and the Italian wine selection was great. The decor is very nice and conducive to an overall excellent experience.“

“Just tried MIRATE Restaurant the food was amazing! Definitely worth checking out if you love great flavors.“

“amazing food, service and home feeling“

“Quality food, service and relaxed environment. Totally understated as the staff assist where needed with a minimum of fuss as we enjoyed the experience.“

“Loreto is consistently a great time with delicious food, great service and perfect vibes. Highly recommend. All of the dishes are so unique and flavorful, the servers and bartenders are warm and accommodating and the space is beautifully maintained with beautiful landscaping.“

“Amazing Avocado roast poached egg Amazing staff manager follow up to make sure meal was perfect amazing ambiance great location natural light“

“Have you ever made a random desperate stop off the freeway because you were starving, and landed in a genuinely fantastic restaurant? Just happened to me at Zhengyalov Hatz. What a treat! Healthy, delicious, natural lunch from an unassuming strip mall. I got dessert, too!

I’m bummed that this place is so far from home. Maybe they’ll open one in the South Bay?“

“Fresh delicious food. Child friendly. Great service.“

“Fantabulous place to watch a game!“

“I just had lunch with my two daughters, ages 12 and 15. It was our first time here.

We ordered three plates: two 3-birria taco combo plates and one order of vampire tacos with chorizo. We tried all the sauces that came with them, along with a 24-ounce horchata.

My girls and I are usually pretty loud. We talk. We’re animated. We gush over the food.

But when we ate these tacos, we ate in silence because the food was that good. To speak would have taken us out of the moment. So we said nothing. We just sat there, lost in our own thoughts, luxuriating in tender meats, spicy red sauce, and complex flavors.

This is how you get tweens to enjoy family time: really good tacos.

And guess who told me about this place? The 12-year-old. Apparently, it’s trending. I recommend it too.“

“Hollywood's Best & Most Consistent Food & Drinks by far!“

“Came on a Wednesday and there was about a 20 minute wait, which felt reasonable given how busy they were. Service was quick, and our food came out almost immediately after ordering.

We ordered the tuna sandwich and the roast beef au jus, and both were delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh, the bread was excellent, and the flavors were well balanced. Overall, a good quick lunch.“

“great place for ice cream“

“Ordered the off-menu Pomodoro pasta and it did not disappoint. The tomato and petit basil sauce was bright, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The wax beans were a standout - snappy and bright with serrano chile, toasted hazelnuts, and a tangy Frenchie vinaigrette. The garden lettuces were crisp and well dressed with radish vinaigrette, fresh dill, walnuts, and shallots. Good vibe, happy staff, great mix of flavors. The orange wine pairing tied it all together. Highly recommend Updated from previous review on 2026-03-29“

“10/10 restaurant, absolutely recommend. Had the Asian summer rolls, Inari rolls, Love rolls, and Pad Thai w/tofu. The Thai coffee was so good. All was delicious and cooked perfectly. Service was fantastic, big shoutout to Dear, server! Lovely atmosphere.“

“The best vegan baked goods around town! I had the cornbread, almond cookie (gluten free), chocolate chip (gluten free), and Armenian pizza with a mixed tea. So good!“

“Friendly Comfortable neighborhood spot“

“I've been there with my sister a couple months ago. We had Filipino iced coffee, matcha affogato and matcha cookies. We still can't forget the flavor of the drinks. Filipino iced coffee is our core memory of our trip to USA. The best coffee we've ever tasted.“

“Solid brunch menu (I had the oysters and the Eggs Benedict with a Brut Rose Champagne and the trifle for dessert). My server Corbin was very friendly and attentive. The outdoor space is cool, trendy, and hip, but not over-the-top. The music pulses, but it’s not a distraction to conversation. I’ve been looking for good places since moving to LA almost 6 months ago. This was one of the few times I wasn’t disappointed.“

“The staff is great and friendly. The food is delicious!“

“I had an incredible meal here recently. The ramen was absolutely fantastic and hit the spot perfectly.

I was especially impressed by the bowl topped with fresh cilantro and a bright lime wedge. The broth had such a deep, rich flavor that kept me coming back for more. Everything was served in beautiful, unique bowls that made the experience feel special.

I cannot wait to come back for another round. It is easily one of my favorite spots on Ventura Boulevard.“

“Ramen done right!

This beautiful cozy ramen spot is just perfect in every way. Their appetizers are great, service and ambience simply the best and the ramen? S tier.

Creamy rich flavorful broth, tender pork cha shu. And noodles are just the right thickness.
Best ramen spot in LA.

Definitely coming back for more. The staff are so kind the service is speedy.“

“Oh my goodness! This place was such a beautiful find. I absolutely loved all the options they had for gluten-free and dairy free. I got the lemon cake and two of the sprinkle cookies to bring home to me and my family. The bread options are amazing for gluten-free as well. I ended up getting their chorizo and egg for breakfast. Absolutely amazing food. On the side I got tater tots, they were crunchy and very tasty. Not greasy, which is hard to do when you fry something. We sat in the back where the wine area is because it was really hot that day so the ambience in that little area was very quirky and eclectic. It’s a very comforting delicious place to go visit if you’re hankering for some gluten-free, dairy free pastries. Did I mention the entire place is vegan!“

“The food was amazing amazing service amazing chef‘s amazing cooks. Best in Los Angeles Indian food you will get prices are amazing. The butter chicken was amazing. Definitely would recommend it to whoever is visiting Los Angeles, California. Come get a taste of India“

“The best spicy Chinese Food in OC/LA area hands down! They have been Michelin recommended for a reason. Their food has lots of depth of umami flavors with a good amount of spice with a refined touch. Their none spicy broths are especially good too. My faves are their dry pots, toothpick lambs, Qiao Jiao Beef. We also like their spicy ribs and boiled fish in chilli sauce, and Mao cai. Service is great too!“

“I dined at this Luna Grill location this past Saturday, July 18th with a old friend of mine after a hike near JPL. Even though two days have passed, I notice that I really enjoyed the food and wished this location was closer to me because I am already craving it again! The food, and the quality in which it was cooked, was absolutely delicious. From the tender and juicy pieces of chicken that was coming off the skewer, to the good ole pita bread, humus, and refreshing salad as my sides, everything was great! A young man working at the location, Dylan, was the one who took our order and even brought it out to us. He was incredibly kind and welcoming from the moment we walked in, as well as displaying true authentic patient with me when it came to figuring out what I wanted to order. Dylan demonstrated his knowledge of the menu, personally describing each item and giving me his personal recommendations. While I played it safe and ordered something based off my cravings, I still appreciated his guidance and frequent check-ins while we were eating. All and all, big shout out to the LA Canada 21 location, and Dylan, for the pleasant dining experience that day! We'll certainly be back again soon.“

“excellent service. very rich“

“Excellent service! The food is good especially the deep fried soft shell crabs!“

“The beef noodle soup was pretty good, it had large chunks of tender beef. The noodles were the best part super bouncy and fresh! The pork xiao long baos were also great, though the wrapping was a bit tougher and thicker than a normal xiao long bao. But the soup and meat are both packed with flavor. The chili oil on the table was not spicy pretty much just dried chili and oil. Service was great, overall enjoyable experience.“

“Absolutely loved this place. We will definitely be coming back. We got Citrus Salad, Carne en su Jugo & Carnitas Wow, just Wow!!!!!“

“Our server, Mike, is excellent! very attentive, gave good recommendations and friendly !“
