Restaurants near Playa Vista

“We had excellent food and service from Kenni!”

“Strong drinks, nice ambiance, great servers, but the food was just average.”

“Whether you are in need of the best morning coffee and tasty sandwiches or pastries (to die for); mouth watering pizza evenings with a great classy cocktail; vegan platters, lobster rolls, line-dancing, salsa, house music…. Is there anything the amazing couple running Joliet (Alex and Olivia) cannot do, and do great!?? Come check for yourself but spoiler alert, the answer is No! Do NOT tell too many people about the speakeasy behind the coffee bar… open until 2am…”

“The Cinemark Movie theater is the best restaurant and bar in Playa Vista. Friendly staff and the cooks take more pride in their work then any other establishment out here”

“Great food and friendly servers. Just feels happy and festive in here. We got drinks and sat down THEN ordered food from a friendly guy who was happy to accommodate us NOT going back in line. And then it even felt like a sit down restaurant which i love.”

“We found Astro Pub randomly while looking for a new brunch spot. The ambiance is clean and vibrant with a energetic color decor .The service, was top notch! Bobby was our bartender and server! This man knows what he's doing and made great food suggestions and concocted best hot toddy that my girlfriend has every had in her entire life.If you are looking to have a perfect dining experience look no further Astro Pub will deliver.”

“The tacos were good, but they would be even better if the tortillas were served warmer. A spicier salsa on the side would also make a huge difference and really enhance the overall flavor.”

“Good! Service was a little slow but otherwise good. Nice place. Food and wine done well.”

“Thank you, Saraiy, and the AM team this morning for the cheer of a pup 🐶 cup for my Scottish Terrier, Wallace. I’ve been a local here in Playa Vista since forever, and this location always has great vibes, especially during a Saturday morning market.”

“My favorite coffee beans. Good people are excellent seriously”

“This is a really nice and well-stocked Whole Foods. I had to pick up a few things while I was waiting for someone to arrive at the airport and I found everything I needed here. They even have convenient free parking underneath the store.”

“I’ve been at least 4-5 times now - obsessed with the vietnamese iced coffee! I get the mocha one. I love that they let you adjust the sweetness level and actually make your drink based on the sweetness request. My kid got a passion fruit tea with boba and loved it. I tried a sample of their matcha tea and it is the real deal. Amazing alternative to ⭐️💵, this is my iced coffee go-to in this area now!”

“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!”

“Good Japanese foods , many varieties of dishes . The fish grilled sea bass is cooked just perfectly fine . The salad is kinda american Japanese fusion but still good . The carbonara noodle - I don’t really care (It doesn’t really fit with the rest of the dishes) - overall is a great place to enjoy Japanese foods”

“Everything was amazing! 🤙🤙👍👍”

“Excellents croissant français.”

“No doubt this is among the best fried chicken in LA!!”

“Kantutan to the max🤣🤣 see photo”

“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.”

“Excellent food and fantastic service😊”

“Absolutely delicious food. Chulita Bowl was fantastic, hibiscus mimosa and latte were so good. Friendly staff too! Thanks for the wonderful brunch. 🙏🧜🏽‍♀️”

“The tasting menu is full of unique seafood dishes, and the portions are generous.”

“Tonight we, my husband and I, with our dear friends, the Crays, dined at Tomat for the first of what will be many times. The restaurant features a dining room and a roof top patio. A welcoming, comfortable space. The staff were all friendly and very knowledgeable about all menu items. Our server Miley took excellent care of us throughout dinner and dessert. She assisted us with choosing items that would pair well with each other. She was never too busy to stop to see if everything was to our liking. She brought the chef to our table so we could let him know personally how much we enjoyed his creations. He gave us a bit of background on his plan of sustainability and creativity for his restaurant. The food was amazing. We had several appetizers. The tuna carpaccio was amazing, light and dark tuna with the freshest tomatoes. The welsh rarebit was so delicious. The weiser melon with strawberry kimchi was a delicious surprise. The house milled saffron rice was amazing. Our mains did not disappoint. The trout and chips were excellent. Everyone at the table said “best trout we have ever had”. The vegetable chips were outstanding. The vaca vieja ribeye was perfectly cooked. The pork three ways with chamoy was also perfectly cooked. Dessert was madelines, warm from the oven, with the strawberry sorbet and the saffron ice cream. All were outstanding. Overall, this was a fabulous dining experience. Great food with great service in such a comfortable atmosphere. And, we have already made reservations for next month!”

“Food was great! Wonderful dessert recommended by our server!!”

“Farmhouse kitchen is the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever had. On top of the food being great and delicious, the presentation makes you want to order everything from the menu. Chef Bo was so nice to come out to our table and all I can say is she was a very nice, young & talented person. She even made me a special dessert for my birthday. Thanks Bo❤️ I highly recommend this place if you want an authentic, excellent and delicious food. In addition, the place is so full of life. The decor is amazing! I can’t wait to go back and try some of the fancy drinks and dishes on the menu.”

“Ended up here accidentally on a layover: Hands down, the best ramen I’ve ever had (springy, slurpy perfection), amazing cocktails (if you like gin the Japanese 75 is a must try!), and whatever the whipped cream, creme brûlée’d banana dessert was tasted like heaven. I even ordered another tonkotsu ramen to go (all the way to Florida) to bring back to my fiancé. They separated all of it, packaged it so it wouldn’t leak, and wrote directions on specific timing for heating up each item! Very impressive service. I’ll be back again!”
