“Always great food and excellent service Whenever we eat at Lure Fish House in Porter Ranch, we can count on having a great meal. But we also can expect excellent service. Our recent visit was a little more extraordinary because of our server, Mar. Since we had been there before, but it had been a while, Mar asked if we knew what we wanted or if we wanted to hear the menu explained. We chose the latter. She also asked if we had allergies, which we did not. Not many restaurants ask that, which can be important because not all ingredients are listed and some people forget to mention it. We ordered our usual cup of Clam Chowder and asked about the Dungeness Crab Cocktail. Mar told us what we wanted to hear and ordered it. We shared both appetizers and enjoyed them both. For our entrées, my wife stepped out of her comfort zone and did not order her usual but rather the White Sea Bass in Almondine-style, which is crusted with breadcrumbs, parmesan and almonds. I went with my semi-usual of the Crispy Fish, Shrimp & Chips Combo, but with Pineapple Coleslaw, on the suggestion of Mar during the explanation of the menu. When the meals arrived, my wife said the Sea Bass was good, but she probably would not get it that way again. Mar checked in on us and my wife repeated what she had told me. Mar then said, "I have just the sauce to make it better." She returned with the sauce that comes with the Sally's Sand Dabs, which is a lemon caper sauce. My wife said it changed the entire meal and was amazing, which she thanked Mar for when she again checked in on us. For me, the Pineapple Cole Slaw matched perfectly with the fish and shrimp. I never would have thought of that. Mar truly knows the menu and what pairs well and complements each dish. I believe we will be visiting more often, asking for Mar on each visit and stepping out of our comfort zones more often, with Mar's guidance. Thank you.“
“Most excellent experience and food was perfect. We had the duck eggrolls and the ricotta stuffed squash blossoms as starters, both had a delish specialty drink. I had the house burger with 3 different meats ground in including wagyu. Was done perfectly med rare. No room for dessert this time. Will def go back. Service was nice, we sat at the bar. All in all a great experience.“
“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.“
“Went here after we were referred by a friend and it was well worth it! Food was so good. Our waitress Sarah was very friendly and even recommended great food choices. The pork belly was amazing, crispy Brussels are amazing and the crispy rice spicy salmon ?“
“First time going. Went for a late lunch. Staff was very friendly & the food came out fast. This has an elevated or more modern vibe compared to other "traditional" Mexican restaurants with familiar menu items (tacos, chips&guac, street corn) but several premium items (tomahawk steak, lobster bomba rice) or unique options (jimca salad, shrimp chile) as well. I like the small plates and tacos but also appreciate the large plates for dinner. They also have mocktails which are fantastic- we had spicy passionfruit. Wel will ne neck amd the atmosphere is lively from watching sports to a date night.“
“This place is excellent for a date or family celebration. Starting with how they treat you... I say like a queen. It is noted that the calballeros took courses in hôtellerie and tourism. My husband and I feel very tired. And you can eat until you burst!“
“Didn't want to be stuck in traffic for over 2.5 hrs to get home, so I decided to come here and grab a drink, watch some games, and let the traffic die down. They have minimal parking on the street but a large parking lot to the back. I was the first one here for at least an hour, which was really nice. They got televisions all over the place. So no matter where you sit, you get a good view of the game. They got some upbeat music playing loudly over the speakers. Some real head bangers!! Got me tapping my foot and bobbing my head!! It's somewhat dark, but well lit with all the neon signs and tvs. The booths were also really comfy. The waitress I had was amazing. Super nice. Checked on me frequently, since I was the only one there for a while. Very conversational. Great at small talk, so thanks. Knew the menu well. They have daily happy hours of beers, some food. And being a Tuesday, it was taco Tuesday!!!! Tacos were $2.50 each. I ordered one of each and they came out early quick. Feels like the ones you get right off the streets of LA (in a good way). Lots of protein. Packed with toppings. Double tortillas. More sauce on the side. They were all really good!! I had a couple of their beers. Had one on tap, an IPA, as well as another one in a bottle. Vibes here are really cool. It was nice just to sit back, kind of put my feet up and chill. Everyone was super nice. Upon request they can turn on the volume of any of the games. Unfortunately, someone requested the soccer game to be played on blast. Which killed the music. But I had been there a good 1.5 hrs by then, and I guess that was my cue to leave. And it only took an hr and 10 min to get home, mission accomplished!!“
“Beautiful restaurant offering indoor and patio dining, serving a wide variety of steakhouse entrees and starters.The Thia Ahi tuna salad, Rib eye and skirt steak are all terrific. Surprisingly affordable by comparison and wonderful!Crab cakes and spinach/artichoke dip for appetizers- always a win!The service was absolutely impeccable by Garrett. We never felt rushed and always looked after, truly amazing and professional!“
“Super delicious Omakase experience! I'd definitely like to go back on a week night for a few rolls. We did a double date here the other night and there was a mixup with our order and we waited a long time but they made it right. I definitely recommend the Omakase experience! My favorite was the nigiri and sashimi. Super fresh and all the details on top of the fish were delicious. Creamy caviar at one point ! This place is in a busy area, so parking is hard, get there early! I appreciate the upscale vibe in the midst of a lot of restaurants, its stands apart!“
“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.“
“The Social is one of my favorite restaurants in Santa Clarita. This valley is full of franchise restaurants, however The Social is truly owner operated and your experience from the food, service and atmosphere will be top notch.The owner, Patrick, is such a wonderful person. My fave is the Penne Pasta and the Social salad.Parking: Easy to park in front of the restaurant.“
“The price is high for the quality of food. It is a nice place to go for a lunch meeting. The buns are not vegan. Only sourdough bread is. I had the vegan impossible on sourdough with a little lettuce and a few pickle chips. I was not too impressed with the burger for $22.Vegetarian options: The buns are not vegan. Only sourdough bread is. I had the vegan impossible on sourdough with a little lettuce and a few pickle chips. I was not too impressed with the burger for $22.“
“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.“
“you can actually hear some really good acts at this place, famous blues artists especially. they have open mic nights but you're very encouraging. I like the way it's decorated in there; of course it's not as good as Ireland's 32 but it's slightly better than universal bar and grill. mind you they are all very close in the running. the point is I recommend going, and I really hope they don't dismantle all the strip malls because a place like this can't exist with apartments over it I don't think“
“We wanted to treat our local Fire Department for dinner as a thank you for their service. I had called Monty's inquiring about this and if they could assist me with having it delivered to the station. While this is a dine in establishment, they went above and beyond to ensure the food was delivered on time. I'm beyond grateful for the amazing service and can't say enough great things about the food! Thank you Monty's for your contribution in helping us give back! Very much appreciated. Tracy - DPM“
“The Great Greek restaurant on Ventura Blvd is an authentic Grecian eatery in Los Angeles, CA. The environment is charming and the service is outstanding! The food is mouthwatering. The Greek Meatball and Pasta in red sauce is a fantastic heavy dish!“
“Great Food, Great Service, Great Atmosphere They have a private room for small parties. My Networking Group hosted a mixer there. They prepared a buffet for us and provided a waitress to take our drink orders. It was perfect. I would definitely book the room again, hang out with friends, and take the family there for lunch. I highly recommend!“
“My wife and I and our 2 adult children made a pilgrimage here a couple weekends ago. I wasn't even aware of it until recently, even though I had worked nearby in years past. The atmosphere is excellent, just what you'd hope for in a vintage lounge. The service was quick, although we were there in the afternoon, so it wasn't packed. The Painkillers were everyone's favorite. I started out with a Mai Tai, which was tasty. I would give the Mai Tai at Ventiki a slight edge, but that's just a quibble. Tonga Hut's prices are better though. We'll be 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.“
“Food was magnificent i was highly pleased! I rarely give 5 stars but this place was great, the breakfast burrito was yummy but a little dry, the sausage was INCREDIBLE. I'm normally not into vegan sausage but it was incredible and then just look at the table it was gorgeous!! Service was simple and polite, the food came out fast for a sunday afternoon! The bloody mary isss missing something , perhaps the tang , salt, or just needs a little more lime. Overall it was the perfect brunch experience on a sunday, we were in and out in a reasonable time and I am leaving a very satisfied customer.“
“Perfect spot for great bar food, chill vibes and friendly bartenders. Half or full pitchers of cold beer and a full bar with tons of TVs to watch Dodger games. In the summer, they keep the AC cranking. Good lunch specials and Taco Tuesdays deals (3 street tacos for $3).“
“First time being there and it was a great time. On this Thanksgiving night, I called 9 establishments and Doc's Inn was the only one that picked up the phone. Carrie was behind the bar and was wonderful to chat with and made great drinks. There selection of liquor isn't over the top, but it's definitely adequate. The regulars I met were extremely friendly. They have a jukebox, separate Men and Women's bathrooms and a smoking area out back. Will definitely be coming back on Friday/Saturday nights when they have live music. Cheers“
“Came here on a Saturday night around 10pm. Pretty packed, but it's not like you are crammed like sardines. My friends and I got some food and it was decent, typical bar food. The highlight of coming here was the cocktails. They have a list of specialty cocktails, and they are all very modestly priced (they are also delicious). Overall, a pretty normal, casual bar to come to with friends.“
“I was recommended there by Jillian Barberie from Good Day L.A. It was my 1st time there & it did not disappoint at all. Valet parking. Quick prompt service, waitress was attentive and food was spot on! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“I love coming here after a day of shopping. The food is just okay to be truthfully honest. There has been a change in the items for the food menu a while back and was sad to hear that they don't make the chicken sandwich anymore. They made a new menu basically and while although it's simple the soup and salad is great. The ambiance is very nice. The service is also good the servers are kind.“
“Who doesn't like a good margarita?! And better yet, a day solely dedicated to "margaritas!" Welcome to "Margarita Monday" people!!! The Margarita Garden Bar is located at the front entrance inside Topanga Social. They have a set menu of pre-made margs but freshly prepared, not mixes, for 50% off. Something for all margarita aficionados. Michelle was our bartender and I ordered the Social Marg with blood orange & bit of agave, no salt ($7 - normally $14) it was perfect. One was all I needed! Met up with some of my favorite Yelpers which made the experience even better! Plenty of food to choose from to go with your margarita! *I highly recommend stippling by any night!!! I really like it here!!“
“I absolutely adore this place. Magnificent servers, atmosphere & food. Noted servers that are amazing (so far) are Ginger, Mikel & Jordan. This night I came out, is my birthday & our server this time was Jordan. His service was outstanding.I went from being incredibly sad that my family did not show up to my birthday dinner, not quite noticing the Mariachi band asking who's birthdays there were until it was too late, to Jordan somehow catching that I didn't inform them & to my surprise, I hear them acknowledge me, then proceed to sing me happy birthday! Greatest thing ever. He also insisted on keeping my candles lit on my dessert for proper birthday pictures even though the air running made it a slight challenge. Tell me why this man knows how to take such good photos?! How rare! Thanks a million! My night was absolutely turned around. I wanted to give him a big hug! Thank you to all of the workers for doing such a phenomenal job with the food & service!Thanks to the Mariachi band, Santa Monica, for feeding my soul with such beautiful music & raw talent ♡ I was delighted to be able to successfully request a song to hear them play.An extra tip - if it's on slower days without events & less staff, don't be afraid to ask questions if you don't want to be -too- patient. It's always best to find reassurance before you decide to be "left with a bitter taste". They will be happy to assist you with your concerns. ?Vegetarian options: Squash Blossoms, Fried Quesadilla, Chille Relleno, Tortilla chips with 4 different dips, ect.“
“Fantastic spot shown to me by a friend. Went for a weeknight dinner and was accommodated wonderfully. Great selection, prices and service. I suggest sitting at the sushi bar if possible. A can't miss spot for a quick bite right outside LA ?“
“Had an all-around great time here at The Crabby Crab! A friend and I had been threatening to come for years and thankfully we finally pulled the trigger. I started off with one of the best Micheladas on the planet. Super flavorful! Then moved on to the clam chowder (pictured) which was amazing. Thick and rich. I highly recommend you get it with everything. Then we split a boil with snow crab, mussels and peeled shrimp in the garlic butter sauce. My friend can't do spicy or I would've gone with Cajun but I was in no way disappointed with garlic butter. The wait staff was super attentive and polite. Great atmosphere. Super appreciated the parking lot in the back.Parking: Small parking lot behind the restaurant. Can fill up easily during busy times.“
“We had a blast! Sherman Oaks-EncinoChamber of Commerce hosted a networking mixer event here. The owner presented us with some history and lite bites. I will definitely return to support and have a great time.This was our second time going on Tuesday’s Open Mic Night! The artists are talented.We’ve been highly pleased with the staff service, atmosphere, and characters. We are delighted to add The Barrel to our normal routine.“
“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.“
“Great food, great environment, great workers. Kelly is always amazing, very friendly, inviting and kind. Linda greets everyone with a smile. The food here is delicious and very reasonably priced. The vibe is good for anything from date night to a place to enjoy a dodger game. You can't go wrong with Safari room!“
“Sunday evening was a fun time to visit and hear a small group play New Orleans type jazz -- piano, drums, clarinet, horn, etc. The atmosphere was friendly and our large group had fun tapping our toes, talking, and haveing a few drinks. Brings back good memories to be in such a nice neighborhood place. See you next time.“
“I had very high expectations before visiting for the first time on a Sunday. They were out of eggplant unfortunately. Expect to pay$7 right away for parking. The stews however were some of the best I had.Parking: The staff are very helpful and attentive.“
“I was honestly surprised with how good the food was. When you think of pub food, you can could get it anywhere but this food was very much elevated. I got the salmon plate and that was one of the best crispy skin salmons I've had in a long time. My partner got the fish and chips and he said the same. One of the best fish and chips he has had. Other dishes that were had was the Philly and the smash burger. All really delicious dishes. Will definitely be coming back again soon.“
“We went in looking for Moriscos spot to eat on a Saturday afternoon.. I guess before it was called something else but now it called shy surf and turf! Honestly Carlos gave us really good customer service the food was really good the place was nice clean .. can't complain everything we got was good ..“
“So glad I found the reviews for this place! I came here to try it out. The plenty of seating and outdoor seating, along with the good rating got me here. I was not disappointed! Keith, the waiter, was more than great! He was friendly, kind and helpful! I had the Chicken Melt and it was delicious! It came with French fries that were made to the tee! All was so delicious and fresh! There really IS plenty of seating, indoors and outdoors. They have TVs, too. This would be a great place to bring big groups to chill and have a good bite to eat! The location is perfect - not too crowded at all! It's a brand new place, beautiful, new furniture, clean, and just nice! I found a new place that I will be frequenting!!!“
“This place is great to come and have a couple of beers and just enjoy your friends company. Love coming here to get chill is cheese tots. Wish the temp was set to something warmer for these colder months but overall a great place to come and eat some hotdogs at.“
“Cool place to bring a small group together, simple bar food menu but nicely done, plenty of staff to help you enjoy a night out, shuffle board tables are a plus, karaoke night brings out some regulars with some real talent, including the staff!“
“Place is cool and they have a pretty decent size menu and good variety drinks.Happy hour is all day on weekends , only thing they need to update there online menu and prices and it does tend to get pretty crowded. You can get milkshakes regular or boozy. Only thing is order them before 930 pmOther than that it's a cool little place.Parking: Parking is street parking.or park in the lot across the street .“
“Had a great time for my SIL's Birthday. It was her actual Birthday so she got to go behind the bar and make her own drink with the help of one of the amazing bartenders. Our first time here and we were quite impressed with all the decor. It is Alice in Wonderland meets The Matrix. Would definitely go back!“
“Still needs some work presentation wise and it seems to have gone back to Jay being Drifters again. That being said the bartenders are better now and the pizza is STILL THE BEST IN TOWN. Just figure out a better way to get me my pizza when I'm in the bar itself. A number system or pick up counter would do wonders for this place.“
“Im just here to say that the gluten free burger is the bomb! The bun is great, spread delicious, and they never tell me they're out of gluten free buns. Refreshing! I'm limited with what I can eat and I loved this so much that I haven't really had much else from the menu, haha. The fries are skinny fries, if you're into that, I'm not really a skinny fries kind of gal. Peace & Cheers!“
