Restaurants near Shadow Hills

“I had such a wonderful breakfast here. Everything was cooked perfectly and served hot. The avocado omelet was especially delicious, and the hash browns had the ideal golden crisp to them.

The pancakes were light and fluffy, and having the syrup served on the side kept everything tidy. It is rare to find a spot that pays such close attention to the small details. I am already looking forward to my next visit.”

“Had the calamari, beef ravioli and bread pudding, it was very good.”

“I just ordered for the first time today and I must say your food is fantastic! Generous portion with pickles and delicious soft boiled eggs, pickles, puréed fresh tomatoes and a small amount of hot sauce that isn’t too hot. Just right. Went to your place near corner of Van Nuys and Burbank. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED”

“Great spot for sharing a meal with others. Everything is just really well done; everything i tried was great. My favorite were probably the chicken yakitori, the freshwater eel, and the miso ramen. I would enjoy going back and trying more.”

“Backbone was an incredible dining experience from start to finish. I started with the tuna tartare, which was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and had an amazing balance of flavors and textures. From there, I had the corn agnolotti, which was easily one of the highlights of the night. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the delicate, flavorful sauce complemented the sweetness of the corn beautifully.

For my main course, I had the steak and fries. The steak was cooked perfectly, incredibly tender, and packed with flavor, while the fries were crispy and seriously addictive. Everything on the plate worked perfectly together.

I finished with key lime and scoop of coconut sorbet, which was just as impressive and the perfect ending to an already fantastic meal. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted every bit as good as it looked.

What made the experience even better were the people. Every employee I interacted with was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The chef was also incredibly nice and personable, which added such a special touch to the evening. You can tell there’s real passion behind what they’re doing, both in the kitchen and in the way they treat their guests.

The attention to detail at Backbone really stood out to me. The atmosphere was stylish and inviting, the service was exceptional, and the entire meal flowed perfectly from one course to the next.

Backbone is absolutely a restaurant I’ll be coming back to. From the tuna tartare and corn agnolotti to the steak, dessert, and amazing hospitality, the entire experience was outstanding. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while and an easy five stars. Highly recommend!”

“What a wonderful experience! The food is fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. You can really appreciate the quality of the ingredients and the attention to tradition. The staff is kind, welcoming, and happy to explain the menu if it’s your first visit. It’s refreshing to find a place that stays true to Armenian culinary heritage while providing such excellent customer service. I will definitely be coming back!”

Martini mondays rule!”

“I have eaten at Flavor of India several times and did so very recently with a friend. This place has amazing food and service! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything is excellent and I strongly recommend them. The atmosphere is great too!”

“This place exceeded my expectations. The food, the vibe, and the service were all flawless. Will definitely coming back here again”

“Amazing food and experience, servers were helpful and friendly especially because I had NO IDEA how to do this. You get water and spices/ sauces, meats and proteins and veggies, and make your own dish. So cool and the food was just incredible.”

“Reasonably priced and delicious food!”

“En Petit Trois, la cocina habla por sí sola. Tanto la hamburguesa como el pescado destacan por una técnica precisa y una ejecución impecable, donde cada elemento está en perfecto equilibrio; dos platillos memorables, difíciles de jerarquizar. Aunque no fue posible degustar la coctelería debido a la política de requerir pasaporte físico para el servicio de alcohol, la propuesta gastronómica se sostiene con absoluta solidez. Una experiencia sobria, bien lograda y digna de repetirse.”

“Excellent brunch food and drinks, lovely atmosphere. Chilaquiles, shakshouka and pain au chocolat were delicious. Cannot wait to go back to the patio for dinner!”

“Wonderful experience with Chef Take! Truly a unique experience in the historical method and style chef prepares his experience.”

“That sounds like a fantastic dining experience”

“Amazing experience at Night on Earth! The atmosphere was unique and enjoyable, the food and drinks were excellent, and the service was friendly and professional. Everything was well prepared and the overall experience was unforgettable. I will definitely come back and highly recommend this place.”

“I had an absolutely wonderful time dining here. The food was consistently fresh and beautifully presented.

Every roll I tried was prepared with such care. I particularly loved the vibrant colors of the sushi, especially the beautiful orange slices of lemon resting right on top of the rolls. Everything tasted just as good as it looked.

This place is a real gem in North Hollywood. I will definitely be back again soon.”

“Cozy. Carnitas nachos were pretty dang good. Update: carnitas a little too salty. Cheese was a little too thick! It's enough for 3 people forsure. Unless they upsized our order? Cocktail was gross, too sugary. Chicken tenders weren't my thing either. Too much honey. Margarita was soo good”

“Love love love this little wine bar. Really great atmosphere, food, wine, and amazing well-versed bartenders. I’ve been twice now and like that the menu is usually different. My favorite part is that you can try the more expensive taste of wine if the bottle is open— I got to try a 2006 Syrah recently that I never would’ve chosen without trying because I typically don’t like raw, but it was my favorite wine of the night.”

“Salmon Ikura dish is amazing! So much flavor!”

“Basic diner ambience, the food is always good. I’m a picky eater wanting crispy home fries and crispy bacon and 9out of 10 they deliver exactly as ordered. Good service and it has an overall good vibe”

“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.”
