“Friendly bartenders & awesome food! 🍔“

“Love the place much. Classy and very clean! Foods are so delicious.“

“Awesome food and awesome service.“

“Nice ambiance . Good consistent food and a safe location to go out at night.“

“Everything was excellent, except the baked fish which is usually excellent. When we advise that it was tough and an edible we were offered an opportunity to select something else. When we did not, they took the price of the fish off our bill. The food here is usually very good so it was surprising to have something that was not, but the staff handled it so well that I continue to think this is a wonderful good value restaurant.“

“Please give George - who I renamed GMoney - a raise! In all seriousness, he made me (a California newbie) feel so welcome and happy while I was out here visiting my daughter... beyond words. He was amazing and nothing like the East Coast bartenders I’ve been used to! A wonderful night was had because of him!“

“Ive been hanging out here for over 25 years.. Great place, Great bartenders and Atmosphere.“

“They are by far the best steak I have ever had. We went there on a whim and they were booked but found a cute table for us by the fire. It was the most memorable meal with my husband. We are eternally grateful for the experience and service we received.“

“Thursday nights is Trivia and it’s super fun! The trivia was not too hard nor too easy and the emcee/dj did a fantastical job not only coming up with the rounds and questions, but the music he played synced perfectly! It’s fun competitive, so come to have fun! 🤩 ❤️❤️👽“

“Always enjoy this place. The atmosphere and welcoming nature of this establishment is unparalleled. It’s my favorite spot to hang out and enjoy either live music or to have a fun night of Karaoke. Been going here for years and every time I leave I can’t wait to go back! Thanks guys! Cheers! We’ll see you soon.“

“Chela’s Cantina is an awesome spot to kick back, have fun, and enjoy a great night out. Thursday karaoke nights are definitely my favorite — great energy, good crowd, and always a fun atmosphere.

The ceviche is absolutely amazing, the drinks are on point, and the bartenders… well, you’ll just have to come see for yourself. 😄

If you’re looking for a place with good vibes, music, great food, and a fun nightlife experience, Chela’s Cantina is definitely worth checking out.“

“Bought a Dancing Salmon burrito and pork gyoza with a strawberry drink. First time here, second time in the mall. I'm happy to have had a great first-time experience. The meal was quickly made; I only waited a few minutes for the extras to come out, but after that, it was enjoyed by the food court.“

“Love the family treatment and my beers are always cold and tasty!“

“The bar at the Valley Inn is perhaps one of the best kept secrets in LA. Yes, it’s tiny but get there early, secure your seat and you’re in for a ride of the greatest cocktails served up by a ladies and gentlemen’s gentleman - the maker with the shaker, Bill. Seriously, make a friend of this guy and then introduce him and the bar to your favorite people - only your favorite people! The food in the restaurant is great but a tad expensive but the bar will become your new happy place. Bravo“

“NOW OPEN!!!!!!!! Stop by and have a cold One!!!!!!“

“I stopped here to watch the Dodgers World Series game 1. This is the local dive bar, the crowd was loud but the Dodgers had a walkoff home run so I was expecting some noise. Pool table was old school, only a quarter to play with a chalkboard of who’s next. I had a fun evening and the lady behind the bar bought me a beer, how often does that ever happen. A five star evening for me!“

“O’Grady’s in Granada Hills is the kind of spot you go to for a good drink and end up staying because the vibe is just right. The energy’s great, the music’s always on point, and the drinks definitely hit the spot.

But let’s be real , she is the real star of the show is Courtney behind the bar. She doesn’t just pour drinks, she makes the whole night better. Quick with a smile, sharper with a comeback, and she’s got this charm that makes you wonder if she’s mixing drinks or just straight-up magic. I came in for a cocktail and left wondering how someone can make bartending look that good.

If you’re looking for a place where the atmosphere is fun and the company is even better, O’Grady’s is it. And if Courtney’s working? Let’s just say you’re in for more than just a great drink.

First time I have ever been but last time I will look for a bar! Ive gone back 4 nights in a row hoping courtney is working... she needs more days on!!

Dannie and Mary Lou are super nice to.“

“We had a nice existing, outdoor table stand with a weather destroyed table top. I shopped on the internet for a nice, teak table top. Restaurant Seating Barn Furniture had a good selection of teak table tops at good price points. We ordered a 36” round, teak table tops at and we really like it. It arrived in short order and the quality was nice. I teak oiled the top and bottom. It turned out fabulous!“

“🤘 great place to see live bands“

“We came to Paragon Bar and Grill for brunch right after my daughter’s graduation from CSUN. I found the place through a quick internet search and didn’t really know what to expect, but I was able to make a reservation online for a party of 13 with no issue. Our reservation was right when they opened at 11am on a Sunday, so we pretty much had the place to ourselves—just a couple of people at the bar. The space definitely leans more bar than grill, but it worked well for our group. Very low-key and relaxed. The menu had plenty of options, which was great since we had a few picky eaters. Everyone found something they liked, and the food was excellent across the board. The service stood out—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We didn’t order many drinks, but even so, I was surprised at how reasonable the bill was for such a large group. Only downside: the bathroom could use a refresh. It’s what you’d expect in a neighborhood bar—functional but not the highlight of the visit. Would absolutely go back. Great experience overall, and I really appreciate the staff for helping make the day special.“

“Tried line dancing for the first time here and absolutely loved it. Even though the place was packed, it never felt chaotic or overwhelming, which made the whole experience really enjoyable.
As someone who had never done line dancing before, I really appreciated that there were beginner-friendly dances as well as more advanced ones for experienced dancers. One of the nicest parts of the night was simply watching the couples on the floor, they were clearly having a great time, and it added such a warm, fun energy to the atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Such yummy food and chill atmosphere. The only problem is the close at 8pm when it’s still light outside?!? I’ve seen them turn away several customers many many times. I think it was a covid thing originally so hopefully they go back to more normal hours. At least stay open until 9pm please 🙏🏻!“

“One of my favorite places to celebrate. Went last night with my kids to celebrate my 54th bday- we sat at a cozy booth in the main room-everything delicious from the garlic bread with marinara sauce, calamari, piccata, chicken parm, Alfredo, puttanesca and tiramisu for my bday with a song- which a lot of places don’t do anymore.
My martini was the best!“

“Spruzzo is a fantastic addition to the Pacific Palisades dining scene and has quickly become one of my favorite places to enjoy a great meal. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels perfect for everything from a casual lunch to a family dinner.

The menu offers something for everyone, with delicious Italian classics, fresh seafood, pizzas, salads, and pasta dishes that are consistently well-prepared and full of flavor. The ingredients taste fresh, the portions are generous, and every meal feels thoughtfully made.

What truly stands out is the service. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely committed to making sure guests have a wonderful experience. From the moment you arrive, you're treated like a valued customer.

As a family-owned restaurant, Spruzzo creates the kind of comfortable neighborhood dining experience that's becoming increasingly rare to find. Between the excellent food, welcoming atmosphere, and outstanding service, it's easy to see why so many people enjoy dining here. Five stars and highly recommended!“

“Had such a great time last night , great bartenders , loved my drinks and Jell-O shots ... u can actually taste the alcohol not like other bars .... I recommend this place , they made me feel welcomed“

“I've come here a few times and the
servers and bartenders have grown on me. They do their job and they have personality.. Always come through and help me find a new drink that I like. Beatriz, Liana, Lorena, and Steven are great to come across when they work here. The vibes are great. Music is great. Come when you have the time. There's a food spot next door that you can order from and bring into the bar. Large TVs with sports and you can ask them to play whatever sport you want.
Saturdays are packed
Sundays are karaoke
Overall fun during the week when you can talk to and joke around the bartender“

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

“Love this little neighborhood bistro. Food is always good and very consistent. Great selection of items, and really wonderful, friendly servers who make it a point to get to know their customers. It’s always a delight to see Bella who radiates kindness (Iove her sparkles!). It’s definitely a place I keep going back to again and again for the good food and great people.“

“Fun place to drink and be entertained. Came here for a live band. You can see Alice in Wonderland and Matrix themes. They have a maze with free pool, beer pong, chess, connect four and popcorn (which was surprisingly fresh). And of course, the magicians! They interact with you. Definitely sets this place apart. People were friendly, even security. Was difficult to get a drink though. Fun bar menu but seemed watered down. Parking was easy.“

“Comida muy rica el servico muy bien“

“Amazing food! Made to order, clean and beautiful dining area, excellent customer service. Tacos Al pastor, tacos de chicharrón, gorditas Xochipilli, chilaquiles, a few of my favorites. The best spot in the valley for authentic Mexican food.“

“Un lugar muy agradable te atienden súper bien“

“Futuristic recovery tiger zinda hain“

“We had a lovely dinner at Wilkes in Brentwood and can’t wait to come back. The atmosphere was immaculate: moody, stylish, and effortlessly inviting, making it the perfect spot for a great night out. The food was excellent, and the entire experience felt thoughtful from start to finish.

A special thank you to Michael, who was such a gracious manager and host. His warm hospitality and attention to detail made us feel genuinely welcomed and elevated the entire evening. Highly recommend Wilkes if you’re looking for delicious food, an incredible vibe, and outstanding service.“

“There are restaurants where you simply eat, and then there are restaurants that make you appreciate how much care, tradition, and passion can be expressed through food. Hummus Bar & Grill is definitely one of the latter.

From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by an atmosphere that felt warm, inviting, and genuinely welcoming. There is something special about a place that instantly makes you feel comfortable, and Hummus Bar & Grill has mastered that feeling. Whether you're visiting for a quick lunch, a family gathering, or a relaxed dinner with friends, the restaurant creates an environment where guests can truly enjoy themselves.

The first thing that stood out was the incredible freshness of everything served. Every ingredient tasted vibrant and carefully selected, from the crisp vegetables to the perfectly seasoned meats and, of course, the hummus itself. It's clear that quality is not just a goal here—it's a standard that guides every dish coming out of the kitchen.

The hummus deserves special recognition. Smooth, rich, and packed with flavor, it was easily among the best I have ever tasted. It had the perfect texture and balance, making it impossible to stop dipping just one more piece of pita. What impressed me most was how something seemingly simple could be elevated into something truly memorable through attention to detail and expert preparation.

The grilled dishes were equally outstanding. Every bite reflected careful seasoning, excellent cooking techniques, and a deep understanding of Mediterranean flavors. The portions were generous without sacrificing quality, making the entire meal feel both satisfying and thoughtfully prepared.

One aspect that truly sets Hummus Bar & Grill apart is its ability to create a dining experience that feels both authentic and modern. The menu honors traditional flavors while presenting them in a way that appeals to both longtime fans of Mediterranean cuisine and those discovering it for the first time. It’s a balance that is difficult to achieve, yet this restaurant does it effortlessly.

The service was another highlight of the evening. The staff was attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about ensuring guests have a great experience. Their recommendations were thoughtful, their knowledge of the menu was impressive, and their positive attitude added an extra layer of enjoyment to the meal. Hospitality like this cannot be taught—it comes from people who truly care about what they do.

What I appreciated most was the overall feeling of authenticity. Nothing felt rushed, artificial, or overly commercial. Instead, there was a sense of pride behind every detail, from the food and presentation to the service and atmosphere. That authenticity creates a memorable experience that stays with you long after the meal is over.

In a world filled with countless dining options, Hummus Bar & Grill stands out because it focuses on what truly matters: exceptional food, genuine hospitality, and a welcoming environment where people can come together and enjoy great flavors.

By the end of the evening, I wasn't just impressed by the quality of the meal—I was impressed by the entire experience. Hummus Bar & Grill is the kind of place that turns first-time visitors into loyal guests. It offers the perfect combination of comfort, quality, and authenticity that keeps people coming back again and again.

A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for their dedication and passion. This restaurant is a true gem, and I look forward to returning many more times in the future. Highly recommended to anyone who appreciates outstanding food, warm hospitality, and a dining experience that exceeds expectations in every way.“
