Enjoyed a taste of home - I was born in Romania - and the taste of “mittitei” was great. So was the “savarina” Loved the sour cherry. Will be back to taste other impromptu culinary adventures and experiments.

We had dinner at the new Parsnip now at Lemon Poppy. Their new outdoor patio is amazing. We had the parsnip pozole, chicken schnitzel, and roasted eggplant taquitos and absolutely loved everything we had. Drink and cocktail menu is solid. It all tasted incredibly fresh and different from the flavors at other classic hip Los Angeles restaurants. The waitstaff was friendly and fast. Highly recommended.

I hadn't been to lemon poppy kitchen in probably six years and didn't know that they now serve dinner. They had an eclectic blend of Romanian and Mexican dishes, (only in LA!) and a nice cocktail and wine list. We ordered several small dishes... The potatoes were amazing, I wasn't able to try the rice ball because it had egg on it, but the reviews from the group were very positive, and the cauliflower steak was fantastic. Two of us ordered the stuffed pepper, and it was so good, my husband had the salmon and said it was delicious, and the fourth person in our group had the goulash in like a red wine sauce and said it was also great. The service was wonderful and it was just the low-key evening we were looking for. Given that we're right around the corner I will definitely go back.

A very delicious place! Hidden gem to say the least. All the food I had was wonderful. I do wonder if they use thickeners in the stew as my stomach was upset next day but my bad because of the gluten allergy. I enjoyed it and it was worth the pain... might even expense myself again it was so yummy. Lol. Our server was a very sweet gal and I could talk to her for hours. Plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a brunch until 2pm she said! Loves it!!!

Delicious dinner + nice ambiance. Everything tasted super fresh and the food came out quickly. I thought the brussel sprouts were a tad bit too oily for me though.

Never had Romanian food before but this place was pretty good! A lot of polenta in their menus, which was also very new to me. The chicken paprikash was quite comforting.The location might be difficult to find for a new customer though, as there are no signs thag say "Parsnip". Instead, it is located in a place called Lemon Poppy.

There were no pronounced flavors at all in the salad, feta dip or dumplings. Maybe we ordered wrong.
This place serves modern, slightly hipster takes on Romanian comfort food and it's absolutely amazing. My favorite spot in the neighborhood.

The Sarmale- stuffed cabbage rolls were delicious. The mamaliga, Romanian soft creamy polenta was hearty. & u don't want to skip on the vegetarian appetizers vinete & zacusca. Delicious & light. I could eat there everyday if I lived close by. Very friendly & welcoming.

The food was very good, but the lemonade was a ripoff and is literally just la croix.

We had the paprikash, and WOW there was so much incredible flavor. We’ll definitely be back!

A perfect, delicious spot for lunch with a friend on the patio. I had the breakfast board, which was a special, and the smoked salmon was the best I've ever had.
the cuisine was delicious.
