New American Restaurants near Porter Ranch, CA

“The location on Porter Ranch was not as loud as the one in Santa Clarita. The food was really yummy. So far, my toddler's favorite mac n cheese place. It did get busy, but our server was able to come around more constantly than the one at Santa Clarita. We sat outside even though it was windy and chilly, but the covers and heater made the atmosphere great .“

“I love going to wholefoods I always find something interesting. The place is huge but in a good way. The prices on most things can be a bit expensive but your paying for organic foods and of great quality. They also have lots of ready made foods and a place to dine in. I look forwards always to shop there.“

“I was visiting family I haven’t seen for awhile and wanted to eat Jerry’s deli what was my surprise urban plates took over I looked at the menu and decided to try it big portions, healthy , comfort food service was great specially was clean I will definitely come back soon.“

“My husband and I usually go during happy hour for their poke nachos and crispy brussel sprouts but have tried a few other things. Everything we've tried has been delicious but occasionally varies in preparation quality. We went on March 18th and ordered the poke nachos but they were not as good. The portion was a lot smaller than usual, so we decided to order another one. The second one came out great (I included a picture of the one prepared correctly) and that's when we realized they left off ingredients from the first one sent. They were still good but it was interesting that the two plates were that different. We didn't mention this to our waiter and I'm sure they would have been accommodating but maybe plates should be checked for quality before they're delivered?

Another note, we usually sit at the bar but we got a table the last time since the bar was packed. We were obviously fine with this but the cleanliness was extremely lacking. The menus had food on them and greasy fingerprints. I'm also not sure why the booths are never wiped down?? The tables are cleaned but the food just lands on the seats. Then you're wondering what else isn't cleaned, look around, and notice all the other spots that aren't wiped down. So gross.“

“A gem of a dining destination with an elevated but accessible menu. Patio seating is a must, and coyote fries are a can’t-miss—as is the entire wine list.“

“The artistic name of the bistro matches the artistry and delicious flavors of the cuisine. A threesome: vegetarian, vegan, and carnivore found a multitude of savory options. Our waiter/thesbian: Chris was charming and anticipated our every request. Foreseeing a return.“

“I celebrated Mother’s Day on the 12th of May 2024 at Joey in Woodland Hills. Very friendly atmosphere. Friendly welcoming . We had a very good and friendly service from Kavin. Good food. Nice presentation.“

“Great atmosphere and the food was great!“

“Great place to have a beer sliders and watch a game“

“The fried chicken was amazing and fresh. The breading as well was perfect and was not to think nor thin and cooked to perfection. The customer service as well was impeccable, all of the workers as well as the owners caters to your needs and makes sure that your enjoying the place. Hands down one of the best fried chicken as well as the customer service I’ve ever had“

“Stayed here for a few days. Restaurant is open for breakfast and dinner. No food between 10-4pm if you’re in the hotel. Their little market does have food to go options.

Breakfast opens at 6am. Sadly, you can’t pre-order. I ordered for delivery one more and then pickup the next. If you order online, make sure to pay attention if you pick room service or pickup.

Had dinner a few times. They have grilled octopus. The one that I got was a tad salty and lemony. I’m not keen on lemon on my seafood. It was tender. So if you don’t mind it, then you’ll be ok. Otherwise, let them know to go easy on the lemon and salt. Also ordered fish tacos, chicken wings and truffle Parmesan fries. Out of all of them, I’d say truffle Parmesan was the best.

Staff is super friendly and attentive.“

“Awesome service and the food is amazing 😻“

“Great service @ amazing food!“

“Always a wonderful culinary adventure as well as good wines and craft cocktails! The bar staff can be quite creative and always friendly. Plus, the atmosphere is fresh and hip- Industrial yet cozy.“

“I was recommended to Nati’s by a friend. The menu is diverse & serves every craving you have when hungry! I just love Mexican food & these cooks have a gift! There’s a nice mix of Oaxaca & Jalisco in the food! The Nopales breakfast & salsas are excellent! Must try! Definitely coming back for more!!!“

“They have great vegan options.“

“One of my absolute favorites from home. The best staff ever, amazing food and more. My final meal before moving to Texas was here shared with great friends and family. Flying back next month for the first time since I moved a year ago and ALREADY a meal or two here has been in the group text!“

“Honestly very very nice people working at this place. They open at 11 but I was there at 9 am. I requested them if I can use their restroom? They allowed. I requested them to charge me for a sandwich, they refused. Usually in California they do not allow non customers to use restrooms with many many different excuses.“

“Great food, Great outside patio. Counter service is good, once you get your food though best not expect anything else in terms of service. We asked for the heater to be turned on and some ketchup...still waiting. This has been my experience pretty much everytime.“

“Wonderful! Beautiful setting!Relaxing atmosphere! Great service!“

“Salt Creek Grille is my go-to spot for a delicious lunch! Their menu is always packed with tasty options, and I love celebrating after an event at the Hyatt here. The atmosphere is fantastic, and the food never disappoints. Highly recommend for a great meal and a wonderful dining experience!“

“I've experienced happy hour, dinner, and the sit-down bar at this place. The food is priced as you would expect for a location on Ventura Blvd; however, the taste and quality here surpass that of any other spot on the block. Granted, it is a tight and smaller location, but being situated on the hottest block of Ventura Blvd makes up for it. If it's your first time visiting, I would recommend going for happy hour—you'll find that the selection of food items is quite wide and tastes great. For a price perspective during dinner time: for two people, including two appetizers, one pizza, and two drinks each, the total comes to around $100.“

“I love Avocado Toast ❤️ I’ll be back“

“Our waiter ( mario) best person I know. Service was beyond amazing, would recommend to all! Thank you Mr.’Mario for the best service ever!“

“They have the best KJ in town!“

“Alright, burger aficionados, I've just experienced burger nirvana, and it's called Hi-Ho Burger in Encino. Forget everything you thought you knew about patties and buns, because Hi-Ho is rewriting the burger rulebook.

Let's start with the meat. They use 100% grass-fed Wagyu beef, and you can taste the difference. It's rich, juicy, and melts in your mouth like butter.

This isn't your average ground beef; this is a culinary masterpiece between two buns. Each bite is a symphony of flavor. The best part is the meat is Halal.

They don't overload their burgers with a million toppings. They let the quality of the ingredients shine. It's a classic done to absolute perfection.
The fries? Crispy, golden, and perfectly salted. They're the ideal companion to the burger, and you'll find yourself fighting for the last one. The fries are served in a freaking awesome brown paper bag with holes in the shape of H. A very artistic touch. Picture is included below.

But it's not just the food that makes Hi-Ho so special. It's the atmosphere. It's clean, and inviting. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, clearly passionate about their burgers. And there is a feeling of a place that cares about quality.

This isn't just a burger joint; it's an experience. It's a reminder of what a truly great burger should taste like. It's a testament to the power of simple ingredients done exceptionally well.
If you're looking for the best burger in Encino, scratch that, the best burger period, head to Hi-Ho Burger. You won't be disappointed. In fact, you'll probably be planning your next visit before you've even finished your first bite. Prepare to have your burger expectations shattered and your taste buds forever grateful. Hi-Ho Burger, you've earned a permanent spot in my burger-loving heart!

Dietary restrictions: Meat is Halal. Awesome.

Parking: First 90 mins is free.“

“Great food! I am vegan but my family is not, we all enjoyed the food here. Clean restaurant & clean eating without any compromise on taste, delish!! Love the menu variety and pastries. Highly recommend, my only complaint is that I can't try more food since I don't live nearby! “

“Found this gem on our way to Ventura. Very very good! Fresh and great selection. Yummmm“

“Friendly bartenders & awesome food! 🍔“

“The sever was exceptional 👍👍“

“Valley Inn and Martini Bar - New Year's Eve Celebration I had the pleasure of celebrating New Year's Eve at Valley Inn and Martini Bar, and it was a delightful experience overall. The food was outstanding, with each dish crafted to perfection. The service was impeccable, with attentive and friendly staff who made the evening even more enjoyable. The ambiance was perfect for the occasion, creating a festive and welcoming atmosphere. While I gave the value a good rating instead of excellent due to the limited menu selections and higher prices for the holiday, the quality of the food and service made it worthwhile. The noise level was moderate, which is understandable given the festive occasion. One area that could use improvement is the parking situation. The tent still erected in the street since COVID blocks numerous parking spaces, making it difficult for patrons with mobility issues. I addressed this to the staff and was puzzled to learn they actually want to make this permanent! No one uses this outdoor area, and it's filled with a disarray of items making it look unsightly for such a historical restaurant. Despite this, I highly recommend Valley Inn and Martini Bar for a special night out. The food, service, and ambiance are top-notch, and it's a great place to celebrate any occasion.“

“the salads are delicious. the food is very good“

“Great Food, Great People. What more could you want?“

“Love the Americana and nothing better than an egg on a sandwich“

“jumbo shrimp with cajun sauce. the best“

“Super fresh, healthy choices, my fave spot in the region for sure!“

“My husband and I have been to the Odyssey several times, and this weekend, we brought our family to celebrate his birthday. I was delighted that we were seated in Macy’s area, and I have to say, she was an absolutely wonderful and charming waitress. She made sure we were all well taken care of and went out of her way to make the evening feel special. Thank you so much for making our dinner so memorable, Macy—you are the best!“

“Been twice now. I have almost 2 decades experience in the bar industry. It's food was limited but pretty good, which is why I went back. The drinks are on the pricey side. Experienced 1 good bartender, a guy. Another decent bartender, female. 1 bartender I would just walk out if they were working, a female. Neither time was busy or anything really there to bring people in, n art class one night. NFL football another night, and the football game was on only 1 a small TV in the corner away from the bar. This bar has much more potential, but it's ok. There's a lot I would do different.“

“Went because I received an email earlier in the day... once at the restaurant we were told that they had run out of 1 of the 2 proteins in the email. We were offered a discount on other options. While the good was good, it wasn't what we originally wanted (and was the main reason for picking Black Angus for dinner).“

“Great food , indoor dining , reasonable price & healthy options.“

“The food was really good. The bowling was fine. The shoelaces were too long, though.


Truffle fries: 5/5

Parking: It can be tough to find parking in the parking lot on a Saturday night, but the parking structure will likely have some spots.“

“Great place to celebrate an event, such as a birthday, anniversary or just a wonderful dinner. Excellent service and pricey.“

“I liked it.! First time there. I’ll go back.“

“First time here. I love the french toast 😋 and coffee ☕️“

“We went for dinner with the family on a Tuesday night. The place has a high ceiling and is very open - much like an attic space. The counter at the front has a huge refrigerated case with nice looking pastries. We didn't try the pastries. We were seated and the waiter came quickly. She took our drink order and came back for our entree order right after. We all chose pasta. I had the bolognese tagliatelle. My husband had the plain red sauce. My husband reported that his pasta was great. Mine sauce was good but not great. It was soft and lacked depth, or character. The pasta itself was good, not the pasta. My main concern was the noise level. Granted, I'm not young, but the hard floors and high ceilings weren't softened by any soft covers, so it was deafening to me.“

“We didn't know there was an event at the Marriott. Very noisy and many people walking through the restaurant. It would have been helpful to know in advance when I booked on line that there was a major event at that location. Other than that, it was good“
