“WoW , the food , the view, Supernice Crew . Worth everything ! We come back . / Swedish Guests”

“Double edge coin. Hippies then conservatives in the same area. But you get a certain vibe from the area.”

“Getting good pizza in California (compared to nyc) is not the easiest thing to do but this pizza was amazing. We got the mushroom gruyere pizza and cacio e pepe which I highly recommend- we were so impressed. The beet pistachio salad was incredible. I wouldn't recommend the spaghetti and meatballs/ pretty plain but reliable. I also don't recommend the wine by the glass- not the best. But overall it was such a nice experience and seems to be a great a local spot.”

“Bright refreshing cool drinks”

“Simply the best, so happy to have Patrice in the canyon creating delicious treats!”

“Great 🌮 in a beautiful setting!”

“I had the best quiche EVER at the Waterlily. The staff are knowledgeable and kind, the food is delicious and reasonably priced, and it is in a very calm and serene area in Topanga Canyon. The next time I’m in the LA area, this will be a revisited spot!”

“Such a cute and unique place! The food and our waiter (shout out Saul for being so kind and friendly) were the best. The shrimp cocktail, tuna crudo, scallops, and banana bread pudding are some must-tries.

Definitely plan to spend some time when you visit to enjoy the ambience and experience.”

“Great subs, Fresh breads, veggies, deli style meats and cheeses. Highly recommended :)”

“Excellent food and fantastic service😊”

“Nice spot to eat after walking the beach. The food was good. Cocktails are small in size but they taste good. Glassware could be cleaner. The indoor outdoor atmosphere is nice.”

“Although I was a little put off by the paper plate table settings… this was by far the most delicious food I’ve had… a wildly unexpected treat! Simple yet brilliant flavors using incredible olive oil… it’s my new favorite place! Highly recommended…”

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

“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”

“Incredible experience. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere felt both modern and cozy at the same time. The chef truly delivers beyond expectations, every bite was full of flavor.

The portions are perfect for sharing, which makes it even more enjoyable to try different dishes and experience the menu together.”

“The food and the atmosphere are AMAZING”

“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!”

“We were treated here by one of my rich friends and honestly, that’s probably the only scenario where a place like this makes sense for treating the whole family out. My family has a very high bar for food. People say I’m picky, and I’m like, “Please… meet my mother.”

Service-wise, this place is flawless. The staff is charming, attentive, and somehow manages to make you feel both fancy and comfortable at the same time.

Since it’s family style, we shared practically everything and with a party of seven, those plates add up fast. By the time the table was full, the bill was basically giving luxury vacation energy.

Out of everything we tried, the Radiatori Braised Beef Ragu was the clear standout. Rich, comforting, and the kind of pasta that shuts everyone up at the table for a minute.

The Garlic Knot bread was good, though we weren’t big on the pieces with the garlic ends. After some research (and by research, I mean a heated family debate followed by frantic Googling), we realized that’s a pretty common thing in restaurants — just not our personal preference. Oh and the drinks were on point :)

Overall, a lovely, polished meal… definitely best enjoyed when someone else is picking up the tab.”

“This place for years has been my all time favorite. The service is unbelievably fast, welcoming and of top notch and respectful. The food is always fresh and the chefs you
Can tell are very passionate on what they do and the hold the Japanese craft to a high regard. I spoke to the manager he carries himself with his culture and pride very high. He is so incredibly kind and respectful. The restaurant really is a sight to behold and truly a gem in the United States. I drive an hour there without hesitation. As far as I’m concerned there is no place like it. Until next time 🙏”

“My wife and I went to the Grove in Los Angeles last night and we had dinner at "Sogno Toscana," an it was outstanding. It was perfect in every way; great food, great drinks, outstanding and friendly staff, beautiful location, etc. I love Italian food but I can't think of one Italian restaurant that I like, until "Sogno Toscano." The food was outstanding, and there was so much more we saw go by that we can't wait to go back and try. And the drinks were outstanding. I love martini's and they served the best martini I've ever had. Giacomo was our server and took great care of us. He's from Italy and "Sogno Toscana" brought him to America when they opened their New York restaurant, and now he's in LA for this new restaurant. Although very busy, the entire staff were very fun to be around, and most of them are Italian which is also great.”

“The food was really good. We got there around 5 and wanted 20 mins. The pasta was really good. Kids loved it because of its chewiness. The menu was small which made it really convenient to pick what you wanted. No confusion or indecisiveness m”

“As someone with dietary restrictions, I am so happy I can eat here now that they offer VEGAN CREAM CHEESE! The best bagels in LA. Get the gravlax works it is insanely delicious”

“The food is both eclectic and delicious. The location is both artsy and industrial with warm and inviting staff. I highly recommend this place for a date, business, family, or anything because it’s fabulous.”

“Best food ever. Best staff ever. My daughter suffered a medical emergency at the WeHo location. The manager and staff were beyond kid and helpful. Not that I recommend having a seizure at a restaurant, but Pizzana handled it beautifully. I do love their food. Authentic, fresh and delicious. Their gluten free pizza is the best in town.♥️”

“Sunday brunch was amazing. the smoked salmon eggs Benedict were some of the best we have ever had. the location is ideal definitely get an ocean facing room. The staff catered our every need. We haven't even checked out yet and I believe we're about to book our next stay.”

“Beyond expectations! Best meal & service in at least 10 years. I’ll be back!”

“Brothers Sushi is a must. Make a reservation and you can’t go wrong with anything you order.”

“That sounds like a fantastic dining experience”

“Just really tasty vegetarian entrees. Samoas are a hit and the naan is so delicious and soft and warm. Today they gave me a hot chai tea. Very thoughtful. Cold and raining ☔️ and it was hot and delicious 🫖”

“Best coffee we found in the entire US (that we visited) on either coast, including Boston, Brooklyn and NYC. Worth the visit for the coffee, stay for the bonus beats.”
