New American Restaurants near Tarzana, CA

“They have the best KJ in town!“

“We did not try the food, but the place looked clean and I would eat here. The bartender was fun and attentive. The DJ was having a great time and spinning a great mix of 80's, 90's and general good tunes. The clientele were nice and we had several conversations with guests. We will come back.“

“I think this is the best international cuisine in all of LA. Very unusual service.You are welcomed and served by a kind robot. Children are very interested in communicating with the robot, it is funny and sings songs. The inside of the restaurant is perfectly clean. And the food is incredibly delicious! Very tasty!!“

“CPK Tarzana staff did a great job in response to a mix up on a take out order. Loved the response and appreciate the time to make a customer happy.“

“One of the most enjoyable meals I've had in a while. Not just about the food. It was a great overall experience. Ash, our server, was knowledgeable and coursed the meal out perfectly. Food was delicious. It was a pretty space. We loved it, and most importantly, I want to go back.“

“Stopped by for dinner to check out the place. We are having an event there in a few weeks. AWESOME EXPERIENCE. Food was wonderful, service was perfect, management went out of their way to be gracious and welcoming. Can't wait to return in a few weeks.“

“For it being u first timing dining out for Thanksgiving I was worried that the nostalgic feeling of a family gathering would be missing but I was definitely wrong. Everyone in the restaurant was having a great time and you could feel all the love and energy in the air. Started with some sourdough and truffle butter and some mezcal cocktails. Both were amazing. Dinner consisted of a 3 course menu and between our party, we were able to cover all items offered. The appetizers were a choice of scallops, crab cake, or pumpkin ravioli. All 3 were so delicious that we wish we don't want to share haha. The main courses were turkey, osso-bucco, or aJohn Dory fish plate. Again, all 3 were so delectable but the turkey and osso bucco were stars because they came with heaping sides. We paired our dinner with a couple bottles of Pinot noir from France. Dessert had a pumpkin pie, French applie pie, or a dark chocolate ganache tart. The pumpkin pie was probably the best I've had. The apple pie was also very good. The ganache tart was decent but very strong chocolate and orange flavors which I wasn't quite ready for. Service was excellent from all staff members and the decor gave you this feeling like you were at home. I will definitely be coming back to have a regular dinner because everything was on point.“

“I keep going back to this place, and usually try something new. Every single dish is delicious. This place is owned and run by people who love to eat fresh, nutritious, delicious food. And it shows. 100% recommend“

“The chef's restaurant is upscale but cozy, with only 5 tables, all across from the open air kitchen. The chef and waiter collaborate to serve you each dish, telling you the ingredients that go into each dish... like little stories. Such a special experience!“

“Loved this place. Came here for breakfast and it was honestly great. Super cozy, really nice vibe. The food was fresh and delicious, and our server was super friendly and helpful. Everything just felt easy and nice. Nothing to complain about — would definitely come back.“

“No matter how many times we go to LuLu, we always leave feeling the same way - absolutely delighted. By the warm welcome, the atmosphere, the servers, the beautifully flavored food, the entire experience. Thank you for always treating us like royalty!“

“The ambiance, food and service is great! Will be back definitely 💯!“

“Fast, friendly service. Fresh, delicious dishes. What’s not to love?“

“Sat down in an outdoor patio for a quick glass of wine and bruschetta Saturday afternoon. Pleasant and helpful wait staff, relaxing environment, definitely recommend!“

“Food & service was over the top amazing !“

“I love the vibe in this restaurant! Very surfer chic. I ended up coming here two days in a row for brunch. I had the breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito. Both was solid. I would be interested in coming back to check out their dinner or happy hour menu“

“The best place for an incredible night out in LA!

As soon as we parked the smell of the outdoor grill hit us. We knew we were in for something special.

We were sat immediately with a reservation, and had the best service. Mike was our waiter and was everything you want in a server and more. He was present but not overly so, he knew his wines well, and was clearly very passionate about the food. He’s service absolutely made our night!

The food was the only thing that overshadowed Mike’s excellence, every bite was divine.

We shared the hummus toast, zucchini, Japanese, sweet potato, Shishito peppers. And for mains enjoyed a chicken skewer, lamb chops, and ribeye.

The lamb was seasoned and cooked perfectly, being my best bite of the night, but the chicken skewer won the hearts of the larger group.

We finished off with their chocolate cake which was perfectly gooey in the center.

There is so much more I would come back for. The atmosphere was just spectacular! Beautiful outdoor seating area, suitable for larger groups or small tables. Good music and great vibes.

All in all I’m just upset that I didn’t come try this place sooner. Definitely going to be a staple of mine moving forward.

If you go ask for Mike (Big Chicago Bears fan). You’re in the best hands with him!“

“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.“

“What an AMAZING place. Went for dinner last night. Beautiful intimate vibe, nice staff (owner was there too, super nice and takes a lot of pride in their food), and delicious food. Got the lentils, risotto and trout -- all were great -- American with an Indian twist. Happy I found it. Will definitely be back“

“I love it here because it’s old fashion great table service because management excels in traffic patterns with cross trained wait staff and bidders. No server leaves the kitchen empty handed and the vibe is to make their customers happy with continuous even flow table service. Disney please take note! I am not of of millennial restaurants where stand at a cash register and pay the tip upfront then assigned a number & number holder then fend & elbow for a table. This is old school service upgraded with innovative traffic management to expedite cuisines & cocktails. I love the intimacy of the raised railroad car booths where I can actually hear my guest’s conversation and speak to wait staff at eye level. And the bathrooms are so modern and spotless! The observation window to see the cooking staff hard at work is as much fun as a cooking show! Chocolate chip cookies are warm but melt in your mouth!

“I'm afraid that I found the food uneven. My shrimp and polenta wasn't good, the shrimp were smothered in a Cajun sauce that didn't go well with the Parmesan seasoned polenta. My friends meals were better. Also, they were out of 3 out of the 7 white wines. I like the restaurant but I think it needs work.“

“Fast and good Nice people“

“Thank you so much farmshop!!! Please know your kindness meant a lot to all of us after the palisades fire. We we're waiting in line to receive an escort back into the Pacific palisades following the fire! This line was at least 300 cars long. People had been waiting in it since early yesterday, desperately hoping to see if they still had a home following the mandatory evacuation. There was a lot of collective heartache going around, but also two gentleman from Farmshop, carrying baskets full of banana bread. They stopped by every car, giving each occupant a hearty slice of freshly baked banana bread. My family just inhaled this stuff! Taking a bite, all of us commented how much it tasted like the banana bread grandma use to make. I don't know if you were using the same recipe or you both baked that bread with love, but talk about soul food! It didn't just feed our bellies, it fed our hearts. A person doesn't easily forget the grace and goodness they're given when engulfed in grief, and Ill never forget the first time i took a bite of Farmshop's banana bread!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!“

“The best aperitive in LA, with Salvo at 12-12 a wonderful location. Thanks a lot“

“Love that Michael’s has a new front patio bar. Great food and drinks. A classic!“

“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.“

“Fantastic meal! As good or better than the old days.“

“We had amazing service by Elsy. Thank you so much Elsy! Our first time here and food was great. Manager came to check up on us very friendly. Will definitely recommend to friends and fam. Try the Peggy's Chicken Sandwich, chef's kiss 😙🤌“

“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.“

Parking: Parking is $3.50 with validation.“

“Beautiful view, great service and nice selection of drinks“

“Delicious food and drinks“

“Warm and cozy bar area! Great food and cocktails! Friendly staff!“

“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.“

“The menu on the website had no prices. This was our first clue. And seeing the menu in print certainly validated our sleuthy intuition. \nThe food was very good and beautifully presented, no argument there. But over $200 before tip with one starter, two entrees and one dessert felt overpriced to me. Portions were sized well - they seemed small but were satisfying and we didn’t leave hungry. \nThe music was also a bit too loud, although I connected to the playlist. \nOverall a decent experience. I wouldn’t necessarily revisit, but would recommend with the cost caveat.“

“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 love Greenleaf! I'm so happy the Century City location is open again <3. The food is consistent, clean, fresh and super tasty across all locations. I love the upgrades they've made to the CC location to give it a more, "stay and hang out" vibe. I LOVE that they have paleo options, and they are all GOOD! When I'm not on paleo, my go-to's are the "Cheap N' Easy" breakfast sandwich (lots of protein!) and the Hollywood Bowl. I've done dine-in, pick-out and delivery. Enjoy!

“I had always passed this placed but not anymore.

I went solo one night and easily spent over $100, with food and drinks.

The quality of the food was amazing and I hope it keeps that same quality when I return. The drinks were spot on. Excellent bartenders.

The atmosphere was great. I even met 2 wonderful ladies and we went to another bar afterwards!

Definitely returning.“

“We love Organico. Healthy options, great deals on Uber eats, and always tasty. Excited to see them expand!!!“

“Awesome service and the food is amazing 😻“

“Excellent service and enjoyed the St. Patrick’s Day Menu! Thank you for a great experience.“

“Great atmosphere and the food was great!“

“I ordered the classic one and.. what a burger! The meat was just as it has to be, it doesn’t need anything else, the bread feels just good. The fries were also perfect! Be sure to make the hamburger triple, it is quite small. Great hamburger“

“Alex gives the best service at Palma!“

“Great tasting food! Highly recommended.“

“Go for the Buffalo cauliflower, stay for the wine/beer 🍔🍟🍕🥗🍗🧇🍺🍷“
