“We had a fabulous night. Food was amazing and service is top notch!”
“I literally fainted while waiting for my table and the staff was so sweet and accommodating despite me being so embarrassed. Shout out to the owner Joe with the pink beard. Food was also amazing, especially the hippo rolls and chicken thighs! Thanks for being amazing, can’t wait to come back (without fainting).”
“This is a 5+++, as you would be hard-pressed to find a more creative, flavorful and truly life-changing pasta meal than at Cento. The Spicy Pomodoro Pasta may be the singularly most delicious pasta dish on earth. The lamb meatballs… to die for. The grilled octopus, OMG. Pasta will never be the same for you. The beet spaghetti? Just ask Luca… it becomes part of you. Highly recommended.”
“Lovely spot with incredible atmosphere and food.The food was presented nicely and tasted even better. Would highly recommend the scallop/uni course and the skewers! the beef tongue was our favourite.As for the bone marrow, it was a little shallow and the miso overpowered it.Overall, I’d highly recommend n/soto to anyone looking for Japanese food around the area. Would definitely come again.”
“Farmhouse kitchen is the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever had. On top of the food being great and delicious, the presentation makes you want to order everything from the menu. Chef Bo was so nice to come out to our table and all I can say is she was a very nice, young & talented person. She even made me a special dessert for my birthday. Thanks Bo❤️ I highly recommend this place if you want an authentic, excellent and delicious food. In addition, the place is so full of life. The decor is amazing! I can’t wait to go back and try some of the fancy drinks and dishes on the menu.”

“Go. Just go. I’ve gone twice with my husband and we’ve ordered multiple, different dishes each time, and nothing disappoints. This unassuming spot isn’t your regular Thai. No need to go all the way to Thai Town, Mid City folks!! Try a dish you’ve never heard of. It won’t disappoint!I’ll add photos later but for now just know that you have to go.”
“Great place for a ladies night out. Plates are sharable and we felt comfortable sitting and chatting, taking our time. Not rushed at all by the service staff and the food was delicious. It was a tad noisy, hard to hear conversation, but that would be the only negative.”
“Three bus drivers from Kern County needed a good burger and burger joint foods after taking kids to the science museum within walking distance… and that’s exactly what they got! Thank you for your great service and food! Everything was delicious from the burgers, onion rings, tacos, fries, and chili Fritos!!”
“Haidilao has always had great service, but this branch had really good service and caring staff. Staff informed of us a discount and let us use it for the nice meal. Always great to visit”

“Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god... i can not say enough good about this place. But i will try. I lived in the Philippines and have ate a lot of good homemade food. This food is better than most homemade filipino food i have ever ate. I dont want to stop eating. But i cant fit any more inside my body. I had the lumpia, adobo, and tocino. All were amazing, and if you're new to filipino food. I recommend you try those. The restaurant is busy. So plan on a wait when you get here. The area is also busy. Great food... great staff... great drinks... bring great company”

“There wasn't much on the menu that appealed to me, but I got the lomo saltado taco. The meat was the tenderest meat I had ever had in my life. Everything was perfectly seasoned. It was so good I ordered another. So, that was $20. The beer selection is underwhelming.It wasn't a bad time, just not my scene. I'll go back if someone else pays.”

“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.”
“We dined at Damian for the second time. Our minds and tastebuds were blown again! Everything was high level, food drink, service, desert, even down to the tiny cookie that came with our espresso. And, the duck carnitas, chefs kiss!”
“Pictured are the Tokyo Rich Tsukemen and the Smoked Dashi Ramen.The Tokyo Rich Tsukemen carried my experience here at Tonchin LA. I came here solely for the noodles made in collaboration with Keizo Shimamoto from Shimamoto Noodle Inc. They are really the star of the bowl. The tonkotsu gyokai broth was alright, but overall, this was one of the better tsukemen you can find in Socal imo.The Smoked Dashi Ramen, on the other hand, was quite weird. It starts off fine but the longer you take to eat it, the fishier the broth will get so get ready to slurp fast ?”

“We have been going to Horses ever since they opened since it’s right in our neighborhood. The most friendly staff with a big shout out to Amanda. The most amazing craft cocktails and absolutely delicious food. I think we’ve almost tried everything on the menu and have not been disappointed once. Can be hard to get a reservation, but we usually get there at 5:15 and are able to sit at the bar with no problem.”
“Such a good deal & great quality foodWe stopped by on a Sunday and waited in line for 10 min, waited for food for 10-15min, took it home and it was fantastic!Hole in the wall place with nowhere to sit at the time we went; some people were eating outside standing up or on the curb outside.What we got: Poseidon (octopus) taco, tacos de camaron (shrimp), tostada Poseidon, ceviche de pescado -- all for ~$26-- would get the Poseidon tostada and shrimp tacos again!-- ceviche tostada was a good deal but not as much flavor as the Poseidon tostada-- wouldn't recommend doubling up on the Poseidon tostada AND taco: get something else instead!Cash only place. Service was quick and nice. Be ready to wait if you're going on a weekend and be prepared to take it elsewhere to eat! But sooo worth it for the prices”
“Possibly the best and freshest Mexican style seafood in LA Think fine from a James Beard award winning chef and kitchen on the very casual setting of a food court It’s busy so get in early as the line to order grows quickly Plenty of parking with extra space at rear of the car park for the overflow This is a must try if you are in the area”
“One of my favourite spots in DTLA. Ian is just the perfect host to make you feel at ease and recommend the best wine for your evening, as well as the perfect dish to accompany it. The atmosphere of the venue is easy-going with great music.”

“It's a tragedy that Manzke is closing at the end of February. A restaurant this good shouldn't have to close. Everything is fantastic. The food is rich in flavor with a cocktail and wine list as close to perfection as possible. I'd encourage anyone who loves fine dining to enjoy Manzke while you can. Oh, and the butter is heavenly...”
“Hidden away in the city of Los Angeles is this amazing bar that serves one of the tastiest omakase. Entering the bar, you see a bar top that seats approx 10-12 people, with a open kitchen vibe. My partner and I had a great time. The Sunday crew was very nice and attentive, engaging with the customers and making things fun! The selection of fish was amazing, definitely a different experience compared to other omakase establishments I've been to.Parking was very easy since they provided easy simple instructions on their website :). Will definitely visit again on a Sunday ??
Parking: Easy to access garage and the elevator close by. Very nice :)”
“One of my favorite breakfast spots. A lot of good options, good coffee options, friendly staff. Their bread and sweets are great, highly recommend the biscuit and jam on the side.If they could add a non-sausage gravy I would probably get the biscuits and gravy every time. Unfortunately I can’t eat pork.Love this place”

“Best salad that I've had in years. Food was fresh and served by staff that really cared about us and our experience. The atmosphere was relaxed, clean, and welcoming.
Vegetarian options: Large selection of vegetarian options. Staff was also happy to make other dishes, like call zone, vegetarian for us.”
“The little plates are yummy. I love the pita bread that came with the hummus (Salatim plate). The other plates were good also. I loved the bread pudding (I think it's better than the best cake). What I like the most about Bacari, besides the beautiful ambiance, is the friendliest staff.”
“We split a spring onion and harissa focaccia; cherry burrata salad; the lamb sausage and mashed potatoes and, finally, the cannoli for dessert. Each dish was as good as the last. All delicious. This is a vegetable emphasized restaurant and one should always order one of her excellent salads. Still excellent every time.”

“Korean soup shop. It was my first time trying Korean soup, and it was delicious.I arrived at the halfway time of 10:00, but there were already other customers. It seems to be open 24 hours a day, which is quite rare in Los Angeles.By the way, only 4 types of soups were discounted during the morning time, and the ones that cost about $16-18 were priced at about $11-12. I felt it was a great deal, so next time I go I'll do it before lunch time.This is just my personal opinion, but I liked the ox tail soup. It's packed with collagen and is quite simple, so I enjoy adding salt and green onions to it, but it's a part that I can't easily cook myself, so I felt it was something unique to this restaurant.However, if you try this one dish by yourself, you might get bored with it. If you are going with multiple people, we recommend that you share multiple soups. (The store staff also recommended a separate style.)Recommended for those who want to eat Korean food in Los Angeles and have already eaten Korean BBQ.
Parking: There was plenty of parking during brunch time.”
“What I didn't like was the customer service, the person who served us was not friendly at all, first time I went and I don't think I will return, dirty tables, I asked for something to clean and everything was reluctant.
Parking: There is enough
Kid-friendliness: There is a children's menu”
“The ice cream occasions truly delivers one of the best ice cream experiences. The flavors are incredibly rich and decadent, satisfying even the most discerning palates. The texture is perfectly creamy, creating a velvety smooth sensation with every bite. The variety of flavors available is impressive, catering to both classic and adventurous taste preferences. The ice cream occasion is a delightful treat for any ice cream lover.”
“Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options on the breakfast menu, staff is usually very accommodating with substitutions and making dishes vegetarian friendly.
Kid-friendliness: Lots if kid friendly menue options and a family style restaurant
Wheelchair accessibility: First floor with no stairs and wheelchair accessible parking”
“Bought 3, 3 pks at Costco. This focaccia, (Spinach & Feta, Jalapeno Cheddar, and Mozzerella Basil) lasted about 20 minutes in my house. I warmed up a baking sheet, spread the chopped garlic and olive oil and put it the oven. Within minutes my family followed their noses and were circling the kitchen island. I used my pizza cutter so everyone could sample. They all loved it so much, I looked to see where this bakery was. 70 minutes from my house! I sure hope Costco plans to carry these! They were truly a phenominal hit at my house.”
“Our family decided to have a BBQ lunch in the city and our friends met us at Baby Blues. Looks like a hole in the wall kinda place but don't let that discourage you. Very friendly and professional waitstaff. And this hit of the day had to be the baby back ribs! Wow! We also munched on the shrimp poorboy and the pulled pork sandwich.”
“Great Korean BBQ & Attentive ServiceThis is a fantastic spot for authentic Korean BBQ in K-Town. I would rate this place a 4.5, but I'm giving it 5 stars to be generous. While it's not all-you-can-eat (which I actually prefer for a more focused dining experience), the quality of the food is top-notch. Their set menus come with a variety of delicious sides, including cheese corn and spicy noodles to finish. No more lunch box on the menu, but some of the best kimchi fried rice in K-Town—a must-try side dish.The restaurant is almost always buzzing, but the service is excellent. The staff is attentive and will even cook your food at the table for you if you'd like. The atmosphere is lively with good music and a fun crowd. It's conveniently located in Chapman Plaza, which offers a few other bars and restaurants, and is close to many other options on 6th Street.I noticed some reviews mentioning changes since COVID. While there have been some adjustments, the overall experience is still fantastic.Overall: this place is a must-try for anyone looking for delicious Korean BBQ with a fun vibe and great service.
Parking: The small lots in Chapman Plaza fill up quickly. There's a much more convenient option: the parking garage across S. Kenmore next to Woo Hyang Woo Korean BBQ (545 S Kenmore Ave, K 3 Parking). It's a flat $20 and stays open until 1 AM.”
“I attend The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Life Afterparty there and loved everything about Mother Wolf! The food was delicious, the staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was very cozy!”
“I’m not one to engage in hyperbole or overstatement, but the dinner we had a Bavel last night was quite possibly the greatest dinner ever served. Seriously, the creativity in the menu was matched only by the flawless execution of the chef and kitchen in the dishes we had. The cocktails are fabulous, the waitstaff delightful, and we eagerly anticipating our next visit. If you have the chance, do NOT miss Bavel DTLA.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Great White, and what an exceptional experience it was! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality by our server, Mickey, who was an absolute delight. Her friendly and attentive service set the tone for a fantastic lunch.The food was simply outstanding! We ordered the steak and frites, which was cooked to perfection, and the crunchy fish with a side of coleslaw. The fish was crispy and flavorful. Each bite was a delight, and we left feeling satisfied but not stuffed.The ambience of Great White is worth mentioning – it felt like stepping into an ancient tavern, with a cozy and rustic charm that added to the overall experience. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a night out with friends or a romantic evening.Overall, I would highly recommend Great White to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. Be sure to ask for Mickey as your server – she's a gem! We can't wait to come back and try more of their delicious dishes.Great job, Great White – you've earned a well-deserved 5 stars from me!”
“I love Pine & Crane! Seriously amazing Taiwanese food. The restaurant is stylish, modern and clean while the food is very authentic and completely delicious. My kids were surprised at how tasty everything was. Healthy too! We will def be back often!!!! If they have it, the lotus root salad is a must! 3 cup chicken is amazing, wontons, etc… I want to try the wood ear mushrooms next!!!”
“We split a spring onion and harissa focaccia; cherry burrata salad; the lamb sausage and mashed potatoes and, finally, the cannoli for dessert. Each dish was as good as the last. All delicious. This is a vegetable emphasized restaurant and one should always order one of her excellent salads. Still excellent every time.”
“Superb place. Unfortunately Jonny Won (?) left couple of years ago but the current Chef is more than capable of upholding this restaurant's glowing reputation for exceptionally fresh ingredients and superb cooking skills. My only advice is to stick to fish and leave the meat dishes as, although nice, are not quite "wow" as they used to be.”

“Angelini Osteria totally lived up to the hype! We had a great dinner there that night and I can't wait to go back again soon. Let's start with the star of this show: uni pasta. Oh my gosh, it was divine! The uni was so fresh and creamy and the pasta itself was cooked just right. Every bite was an explosion of flavor. We also tried the baked lasagna and it was delightful. The layers were perfectly balanced and each bite was full of rich, savory flavors. Let's not forget dessert! We shared a few different things and they were all great. The tiramisu was fluffy and decadent and the chocolate mousse was rich and smooth. Overall, Angelini Osteria is definitely a must-try for Italian food lovers in Los Angeles. The food is incredible, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes on the menu!”
“Adam and his staff provide excellent service and the sashimi as well as the handrolls are the best we have had on 3rd street, highly recommend (fish alone is amazing we don't even get it with the ponzu).
Dietary restrictions: They will accommodate if you don't want ponzu or other sauces that come with the fish”
“I grew up in a Thai household and the food here is very much authentic! The Thai northern sausage “sai oua” (ไส้อั่ว) is made fresh and is soooo delicious! ? It is difficult to find a Thai restaurant that makes this dish fresh, not frozen.The atmosphere is very humble and the restaurant space is small, but I don’t mind at all. They have a lot of choices for takeout food.”
“Totally worth the 70 minute drive. Delicious food and great Taiwanese hospitality. Friendly, attentive staff and wonderful atmosphere. Minced Pork (Lu-Rou) Rice, fully loaded delicious stewed pork with egg. Meats are juicy and tender, kinda on the sweet side. Clamshell bun (Gua Bao) comes with tender thick cut pork, a bit on the salty side, but very well cooked. Fatty but not greasy. Thousand layer pancake with egg and basil was crispy and flaky. The basil flavor is a wonderful addition. Scallion bread sandwich was what we expected. Same tender thick cut pork, very happy to eat this. Next time I will probably get the beef, too much pork belly today Wonton soup is very classic, if you like shrimp wontons, you have to try this. We ended the meal with Hakka mochi and Oolong tea, the mochi tasted just like the ones in Taiwan. The tea was fragrant and is just the perfect compliment to the mochi. Overall an amazing meal with warm and friendly people, highly recommend!”
“We will be back ! Awesome vibe.”
“It was our first time trying In-N-Out and I would definitely come again and I hope this comes to the UK. We had the cheeseburger meal and the veggies were fresh and the burger was quite juicy. I think they make their own fries which was really nice and you get a refillable drink with the meal. The staff were nice and welcoming and also very helpful. It can get a bit crowded during the day but we found a seat pretty quickly. We paid around $10+”
“We were there for a private party in the charming little room upstairs...the wonderful food, perfect service and the tone set from the manager on down was perfect. I've always loved this restaurant but had never been to a private event there and it definitely did not disappoint! Thanks Divino for a lovely evening!”
“I ordered delivery via Uber Eats. I had the veggie pakora, tandoori fries and lentil soup. Everything was fresh, arrived piping hot and was packed with flavor! Just an fyi this restaurant is rated 4.8/5 with 68 reviews on Uber Eats as of today (10/16/23). It’s considered a top eat and I can see why! Recommend and will definitely be ordering from here again! :)”
“The store look very attractive and well decorated.. I always stop by when ever I went to that building.. Carol and boy Juffer they were very nice . I love Monica behaviour to each customer and her hard work.. I love western bacon, poppers and coke. All should try this place I bet you never disappointed..”
“One of my favorite breakfast spots. A lot of good options, good coffee options, friendly staff. Their bread and sweets are great, highly recommend the biscuit and jam on the side.If they could add a non-sausage gravy I would probably get the biscuits and gravy every time. Unfortunately I can’t eat pork.Love this place”
“The ambience is great! Very nice and homey spot. The staff was very kind too. We ordered a bit of everything.Pros:Prices are very good for all the dishes. Nothing was over 15 dollars on the menu. The shrimp wontons and pan fried pork buns were the best items with the most flavor. The beef roll was huge in size. Great for people that enjoy cucumber and thicker slices of the meat. The bean curd salad had a nice bite and flavor to it. They also have sparkling water on tap!Cons:Parking is bad. Getting street parking is like winning the lottery. The other option is to pay for parking which can range between 10-30 dollars. The dan dan noodles and sha gua mian did not meet our expectations. The noodles seemed a bit overcooked and a sauce/acid could have given the dish more of a balance in flavor.Our table marker was taken off the table a little early and that's when we saw on the receipt that a missing item was added incorrectly. Our server fixed it promptly so that was great.”
“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.”

“One of the best Omakase experiences I've had. The seasonal menu was perfectly selected and prepared: mouthwatering, mellow, strong, buttery, delectable, comforting. We enjoyed every bite, it was a crescendo of flavors. Thank you to Joshua for the polite service. We'll be back.”
“This was the top dining experience of my year so far. The perfect combination of fresh, delicious food in a personal, unpretentious atmosphere. The restaurant is Nan’s passion-project and you can feel her thoughtfulness and enthusiasm in the unique concept and intricate flavors and textures of the food. Our group shared two bottles of natural wine as well that paired perfectly with the food. I also loved the bespoke handmade stoneware, delicate glassware, and mismatched vintage furniture. Would absolutely recommend sitting at the bar to see the process and incredible attention to detail. We came for the “lunchtime indulgence” for Sunday lunch, but will definitely be back for the tasting menu in the future.”
“one of my most fav steak places in LA. family owned and always top notch. you have to go here, bring family and freinds. I go here monthly for business dinners and date nights. everyone knows me there now after all the years I have gone and its always a pleasure seeing them and enjoying the family made food! this is a neighborhood gem!”
“Absolutely loved this experience. Thank you for this wonderful comfortable dinner. It’s exactly what I love. The restaurant is not big which I liked because it felt cozy and not super crowded. Non of the courses specifically stood out but everything was perfect. Service was absolutely incredible, always caring and super friendly. Loved how they kept giving extra courses and even adding a lovely Polaroid picture at the end. It’s crazy how they even thank us again by sending a letter to my address. Loved it and LOVED IT. Just go”
“Outstanding food and service. Reservations were limited so we went right when they opened and snagged seats at the end of the sushi bar. The highlights for us were the inventive, perfectly seasoned hamachi choco and buttery salmon nigiri—but honestly we would reorder everything we tried and can’t wait to come back to sample the rest of the menu. Mariano made us feel like VIPs with his stellar recommendations and good conversation. So happy to have this gem in the neighborhood! We look forward to enjoying their sister restaurant, Bar Seco, opening soon next door.”
“My boyfriend and I got the omakase but to be honest it was not worth it, the food tasted great but you can get almost the exact same course by ordering the 10 piece nigiri from the menu for half of the price. The atmosphere is nice but not appropriate for a traditional omakase. Highly recommend, just save your money and skip out on the omakase.”
“Yess has phenomenal dishes with subtle and delicious flavors. It is always fun going and trying some of their new dishes. The Monk's Chirasi with Morel Miso Soup I could eat everyday for breakfast. The venus clam salad had plump juicy clams garnished nicely with fresh serranos and hints of ginger. I asked for a spoon for the clam broth. The tasting menu had me very full and every item was very very delicious. Thanks to the friendly staff and Chef.
Vegetarian options: Almost every (if not every) option on the course meal has a vegetarian alternative. Delicious seasonally foraged wild mushrooms from morels to chanterelles are amazing.”
“Got back from Japan a month before this meal. This is as authentic as it comes. Nine total people get a reservation each night. All reservations are for 7 pm and clients are expected to announce their arrival at 645.The restaurant looks and feels like similar places in Tokyo. The chef and his five assistants and co-chefs create a dinner made for their nine new “friends”. About 50% of the 20 very small dishes were either sushi or sashimi. Each dish was impeccable. Service was also perfect.This is an experience. Not cheap but an experience. Even in Japan, there aren’t many places like this.”

“I stopped by on a Saturday morning. Had a delicious breakfast and was able to test ride the Del Mar electric motorcycle. Bike had amazing torque and would work well for city commuting.”

Cheap Eats
“They lived up to the hype both the pork belly and the wontons tasted absolutely good. I can highly recommend it. Qmd we did not hear any names being called during for those on the wait list. Thought the wait time can be long. Bring ansun umbrella for sunny days. Their locals are rather small for the high demand.”
“This cafe shares a space with the lobby of kodo hotel, and is beautiful Japanese minimalism at its peak. That being said, it must get slow because both the lobby reception and cafe barista were looking bored and on their devices when I stepped in. It was a bummer that they were already out of pastries to not have a little sweet something to accompany my usual espresso, so I opted for an oat cortado which was lovely. The coffee and ambiance in their mini outside patio was nice.”
“Hands down best cold brew I've had in la.6xs is the only comparable spot, street parking cause ktown, bathroom yes, a ton of good seating with outlets, cool ambiance, good sandwiches albeit a bit pricey, drinks were priced fairly for la, good spot to work, stop in get a drink (5% discount for La locals), or catch up over some cool ambiance (they got a whole wine selection on display)”
“Got a couple of cheese slices. Apparently New Jersey style.They were perfectly crunchy but the sauce could use some work. And while I like a good caramelized burnt crusty edge on my squares just as much as the next square lover, these actually ended up being a tad too burnt (especially in the corners) and lacked the crust synergy that can make square slices a delight to eatThe manager helped me out. He was chill and answered all my question while dropping a little knowledge in the process.It's got potential, just don't see it having the foot traffic in this area. Hopefully the ghost que has its back.It's a probably a 3.5 but I'm rounding up because I'd go back. Square pizza is still surprisingly uncommon in LA county. Emmy Squared is the only other I can think of that specializes. Mostly an afterthought at the places that do have a Sicilian or Grandma.”
“Absolutely love this vegan spot!! I'm working my way through the whole menu and all of the food is considerately prepared (burritos are carefully grilled on both sides!!), and very tasty and flavorful. The iced mocha is totally worth it. It's hard not to eat here every day. Easy parking in the lot.”
“The sandwich is just perfect! The Italian sandwich is a must try!I wish it came with a pickle without having to pay an extra $1 for it. The sandwich is pretty pricey to come without any pickles.Black sesame dessert was also good but it would have been so much better if it was warm or fresh. Very hard to cut through.”
“The ramen is delicious, and very customizable from the spiciness level, garlic level, noodle type, oil level, salt level, type of pork, etc. The only downside is the lines, but that’s what to be expected when the ramen is that good ? I usually get the Red King. They also give free bibs if you ask!”
“Quality food, service and relaxed environment. Totally understated as the staff assist where needed with a minimum of fuss as we enjoyed the experience.”
“I love Pine & Crane! Seriously amazing Taiwanese food. The restaurant is stylish, modern and clean while the food is very authentic and completely delicious. My kids were surprised at how tasty everything was. Healthy too! We will def be back often!!!! If they have it, the lotus root salad is a must! 3 cup chicken is amazing, wontons, etc… I want to try the wood ear mushrooms next!!!”
“So far, my experience working with Mr. Ralph Carico has been incredible. He is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of trading and well-connected. I feel very fortunate to have been referred to him. I highly recommend contacting him for your stock trading needs. He is the best trader. Ralph Carico is the real deal!”
“Amazing food, service and atmosphere! I love that they use local foods while prioritizing sustainable practices. Truly incredible flavors and attention to detail! Can't wait to come back!”
“one of my most fav steak places in LA. family owned and always top notch. you have to go here, bring family and freinds. I go here monthly for business dinners and date nights. everyone knows me there now after all the years I have gone and its always a pleasure seeing them and enjoying the family made food! this is a neighborhood gem!”
“GREAT FOOD ALWAYS~ BEEN COMING TO THIS RESTAURANT FOR DECADES~ MAMA'S COOKING IS THE BEST!!!! Pollack Casserole Steamed Cod Fish Seasoned Pork W/Veggie Seasoned Oysters must try~♡♡♡♡♡”
“One of the best cafes in all of LA. The food is a bit overpriced but the portions are pretty big so it kind of makes up for it. Definitely try the short rib hash--that will change your life. Also a great place to work from.”
“This place always had great beef, but now they have opened a really great full bar with like a half dozen creative cocktails. I feel like I must try them all. ?Update: Delicious”
“Pre-playoff game meal was delicious. Shared pizza and charcuterie board, wine and beer. Great long list of Italian wines. Speedy service and just a nice afternoon that was so much better than a hot dog at the arena!”
“Amazing takeout family meal which features the most flavorful and delicious Char Siu Wagyu Short Rib with fluffy bao. All side dishes are well executed and delectable. One of the best staying at home meals I’ve had! Highly recommend it!”
“Angelini Osteria totally lived up to the hype! We had a great dinner there that night and I can't wait to go back again soon. Let's start with the star of this show: uni pasta. Oh my gosh, it was divine! The uni was so fresh and creamy and the pasta itself was cooked just right. Every bite was an explosion of flavor. We also tried the baked lasagna and it was delightful. The layers were perfectly balanced and each bite was full of rich, savory flavors. Let's not forget dessert! We shared a few different things and they were all great. The tiramisu was fluffy and decadent and the chocolate mousse was rich and smooth. Overall, Angelini Osteria is definitely a must-try for Italian food lovers in Los Angeles. The food is incredible, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes on the menu!”
“We have been going to Horses ever since they opened since it’s right in our neighborhood. The most friendly staff with a big shout out to Amanda. The most amazing craft cocktails and absolutely delicious food. I think we’ve almost tried everything on the menu and have not been disappointed once. Can be hard to get a reservation, but we usually get there at 5:15 and are able to sit at the bar with no problem.”
“We loved our experience here. Attentive service and really good food. My only critique as a person with food allergies is that I wish those were listed on the menu (GF, V, DF, etc). A gluten free toast option would be amazing too, but I’ll take what I can get!”
“This place was cool. It was bright, loved the bookcases and the owner took the time to come out to greet us. We had a delicious dinner. The crispy mushrooms and lettuce wrap appetizers were really good. Add a pizza, salmon tacos and a mushroom burger, we had a feast!! We’d definitely go back again.”
“The experience was absolutely great and one of the best services I’ve received. Accidently bumped into their Monday/sunday sales which was 50% off per bottle and was amazing!”
“I visited for the first time after hearing about this place on instagram. So worth it!! We ordered The Westside and it came with more than enough food for two people. it was all delicious, rich flavors, the chicken was very juicy and not at all dry like other places i’ve tried. I’m eating it for leftovers now and it’s still just as delicious! We also got two drinks: the Punjabi Mango and the 5 Elements. Both were yummy but the Punjabi mango was my fave and would get again! The staff were also incredibly nice and attentive, and the atmosphere was both homey and elevated. 11/10!!!”
“One of the best Omakase experiences I've had. The seasonal menu was perfectly selected and prepared: mouthwatering, mellow, strong, buttery, delectable, comforting. We enjoyed every bite, it was a crescendo of flavors. Thank you to Joshua for the polite service. We'll be back.”
“This place had so many great reviews and I'm within walking distance - How could I not try it? Staff was attentive/interested in my experience of the food. Menu was definitely interesting. I was glad that one of my dishes was not too cloying by being OVER dressed, but it could have used a little more of its vinaigrette or something to tie it together a TAD more. Another dish was perfectly cheesy, a wagyu empanada of sorts. The food tasted clean, which is always better than cloying. Was it as outstanding or remarkable/memorable as everybody said in other reviews? I didn't have that experience but maybe because I wasn't having any cocktails. :-) A drink and a little buzz can always make a dining experience taste and feel even better. ? I know food prices have gone way up, and I'm a generous tipper, but it came up to almost 50 for two appetizers. I do think the appetizers were fairly portioned.”
“The food is absolutely amazing!! They cook your food in an open harth, so the restaurant can get a little warm. The music is great, mostly hip hop. The waiters and waitresses are very attentive and want to make sure you have a great experience.”
“It was even better than I remember. I had the catfish po boy, chicken & waffles. The French bread, remoulade sauce & generous seasoning of the fish were delicious. I would definitely not consider myself a grits fan but the fried cinnamon sugar grits…so good. I can definitely post photos of empty boxes but other than that ??♀️. You’re going to have to order your own. Make sure you order directly on the restaurant site www.gritznwafflez.com. Signed up with my email when I ordered & got a discount.”
“It was great to eat with family!!I chose All U Can, and the meat quality was better than I expected. In particular, the brisket and marinated ribs were really good.The staff were friendly and I enjoyed my meal to the fullest!!The valet parking fee was $10, which was too expensive, so I used street parking nearby.”
“Good service and atmosphere. Waiter was very attentive. They have a menu for dogs if you bring your dog to enjoy food on the patio with you. The fish and chips dripped oil, which was a bit upsetting. I do recommend getting a burger, sandwich or salad.”
“I was impressed with this place! A great find indeed. Outstanding meal here. The staff does an amazing job of describing anything on the menu and the ambiance is very cool. Can't wait to come back!”
“I loved the nook niche restaurant tight inside Los Angeles. I sat by the bar and had the uni panna cotta. It was tangy, creamy, and crunchy. It was worth it. I’m coming back.”
“It was super tasty with great service. The waitress also helped a lot with the food preparation.
Vegetarian options: You can choose a lot with tofu
Parking: Behind the building”
“Stopped in last minute on a whim , about an hour before closing. And with some luck and a very attentive staff. They were able to squeeze us in at the bar. STAFF : A+ Food: A+ the pizza had a nice chew and the crust had a beautiful leopard spots. The sauce is bright and flavorful. Would highly recommend the Margherita and the Funghi.”
“From the initial greeting, to the lovely outside seating, to the great service staff, to really great flavors, it was a terrific meal. Our whole group concurred, “let’s come back here.””
“I recently dined at this establishment, and I must say, it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The service was impeccable, thanks to Nina and Danton. The food was simply outstanding. The variety of side dishes offered were all delicious and complemented the main course perfectly. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience!”
“So beautiful! The patio, the service, the food. Everything is wonderfilled. And vegan!!!
Vegetarian options: Vegan peanut butter stem and charred okra salad are amazing.”
“Superb place. Unfortunately Jonny Won (?) left couple of years ago but the current Chef is more than capable of upholding this restaurant's glowing reputation for exceptionally fresh ingredients and superb cooking skills. My only advice is to stick to fish and leave the meat dishes as, although nice, are not quite "wow" as they used to be.”
“I recently dined at Cara and had an absolutely delightful experience. The truffle pasta was hands down the highlight of the meal - it was rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The New York steak and ribeye were also standout dishes, cooked exactly to my liking and bursting with flavor. For starters, I highly recommend trying the crab cakes - they were exquisite and set the tone for a fantastic meal. And don’t miss out on the fries - they were the perfect accompaniment to the meal, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Overall, the food, ambiance, and service at Cara exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to dine there again.”
“We went for Mother's Day and everyone enjoyed their food. Especially the Rigatoni! We had a 2:15 PM reservation and didn't realize the kitchen closed at 2:30. We were able to get our orders in but it felt a bit rusher. Wished we had known so we could have come in earlier. The service was great snd my girls said the place had a cool vibe. We'll definitely go back!”
“Outstanding food and service. Reservations were limited so we went right when they opened and snagged seats at the end of the sushi bar. The highlights for us were the inventive, perfectly seasoned hamachi choco and buttery salmon nigiri—but honestly we would reorder everything we tried and can’t wait to come back to sample the rest of the menu. Mariano made us feel like VIPs with his stellar recommendations and good conversation. So happy to have this gem in the neighborhood! We look forward to enjoying their sister restaurant, Bar Seco, opening soon next door.”
“Food was great, from starters to deserts. The ambiance left a lot to be desired with little decoration, hardscaped floors and walls, which amplified the loud music and screaming one had to do to be heard over dinner conversation.
Kid-friendliness: Food would appeal to kids and the setting was not fancy at all. Kids screaming would hardly be noticed here.”
“First the atmosphere: it's a cute, well put together little Japanese restaurant. Walls line with art and photos. You can read the history of the place as you eat. Dining tables and a bar to sit and enjoy a meal.Second, the food: impeccable food displayed on nice plates. Large chunks of fish in the sushi rolls. Spicy tuna and salmon roll had a smooth texture and world-class taste. I did not use soy sauce or because the fish was amazing by itself. This alone will bring me back. I ordered a combo with beef teriyaki and pork cutlet. The pork cutlet was succulent. Pick it up with chopsticks and marvel at the juiced flow. The crust had standalone flavor that I might use as a topping by itself if that were an option. The beef was cooked to perfection. The yeriyaki sauce had a unique taste to it. Came with soup and salad. Miso is a simple dish that this establishment has perfected. The salad was a standard side salad with ginger dressing. Great way to cleanse the palatte. Tempura was also served, and it was again a world-class dish. Fresh tasting veggies and two healthy shrimp.Lastly, the service:the older woman who was there was a gem, and this review is not about her. This review is about the young, inexperienced waitress. I don't think she has enough experience to be serving folks, so this may not be the best place for her to learn. This establishment is the longest running japanese restaurant in Los Angeles. That comes with a heavy burden. The young waitress was not warm or inviting. These two traits are set in stone within japanese culture. As the older woman tried coaching the younger, she younger woman gave dirty looks and rolled her eyes. She seemed uninterested and worse than that, unwilling to learn from her elder. I will be back at some point and hope to see how her journey is going.Overall, you will be satisfied here. Please come one and all to a modern marvel of japanese cuisine in the greater Los Angeles area.”
“We came with high expectations given the provenance of Cha Cha Cha and were still blown away. What a great place! The tostadas, ceviches and the branzino zarandedos were out of this world. Great space, great service and great value. Long may this place reign.”
“Adam and his staff provide excellent service and the sashimi as well as the handrolls are the best we have had on 3rd street, highly recommend (fish alone is amazing we don't even get it with the ponzu).
Dietary restrictions: They will accommodate if you don't want ponzu or other sauces that come with the fish”
“Excellent service, great food and wine. Loved the ambiance. Looking forward to going again!”
“Best salad that I've had in years. Food was fresh and served by staff that really cared about us and our experience. The atmosphere was relaxed, clean, and welcoming.
Vegetarian options: Large selection of vegetarian options. Staff was also happy to make other dishes, like call zone, vegetarian for us.”

“Had dinner here before a show at the Pantages. The restaurant is beautiful! Our waitress, Sophie, was excellent: the perfect amount of attentiveness, friendly and helpful. We were seated immediately and food was served promptly. We had the Vodka pizza, an antipasto salad and lemon cheesecake. All were delicious! My only comment was that the two top was quite small, especially when serving a whole pizza. We will definitely be back!”
“Perfect place for any occasion! My go to for lunch, Wednesday Workers plate is my hump day highlight!! Great curated brew selection and the meats can't be beat.”
“Friendly team. Service can be faster!! But as they say bbq is slow”
“Superb creative Mexican cuisine and impressive cocktails, even without alcohol (virgin)”
“Yummy and giant portions of food. Had egg rolls and Pad Thai. I couldn‘t finish it, as it was a huge portion. I will come back for sure if I will be back to LA ☺️”
“Great cocktail bar on the same block as the Dunsmoor. Stopped in after dinner and had a drink. Drinks were good, vibe was good. More than one group had brought in their own pizza to eat and they seemed ok with it.
Vegetarian options: It's a bar.
Kid-friendliness: It's a bar?
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes but the bar is high off the ground.”
“Restaurant is beautifully designed. I loved the breakfast table setting. Genuine friendly greeting and service from Kevin was outstanding. My Croque Madame was delicious. Thank you chefs. Great job everyone.”
“Delicious and a great time was had by all.
Vegetarian options: If you’re ovo lacto vegetarian there are many options for you.
Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free options and vegetarian options.
Parking: There is actually a small lot in back. There is metered parking on the street.”
“The caesar salad is pretty under rated!!Been a few times and noted either happy employees or grumpy rude employees theres no gray area there. But food is very great ?”
“The place is gorgeous, especially if you love a nice terrace. The food... Is it because it's the only middle Eastern gluten free place, or is it because the ingredients are fresh, or is it because the preparation is perfect, or maybe it's all the small details... I think it's all of the above, one of the best middle Eastern places in LA, and the best gluten free one :) enjoy their manahish!”
“Great great little place. We loved everything we got. Especially the calamari, Brussels sprouts, lumache, pappardelle, casarecce were amazing! The branzino was fantastic!! Will definitely be going again.”
“Amazing delicious food and love the ambiance. The servers were awesome!!”
“Hidden away in the city of Los Angeles is this amazing bar that serves one of the tastiest omakase. Entering the bar, you see a bar top that seats approx 10-12 people, with a open kitchen vibe. My partner and I had a great time. The Sunday crew was very nice and attentive, engaging with the customers and making things fun! The selection of fish was amazing, definitely a different experience compared to other omakase establishments I've been to.Parking was very easy since they provided easy simple instructions on their website :). Will definitely visit again on a Sunday ??
Parking: Easy to access garage and the elevator close by. Very nice :)”

“I just want to thank you Mr. Jerry for all you do, very amazing. I was very skeptical at first, never heard of someone fixing low credit score on excellent reports. After being turned down for a home loan, I filed for my credit report to see what was on it. To my dismay there were duplications, misinformation as well as things that weren't even mine. No wonder I couldn't get the loan. A friend from work said to me that good day, my friend look out for JerryLink Credit Group on the Internet and so I did. After going through and I saw some positive reviews, I decided to contact them. I’m glad I did. It took only 15days to erase negative information, and push my score to 790s from the initial 550s across all three bureaus. You too can testify like me by reaching out to them”
“I HAD NOT VISITED THIS LOCATION IN A WHILE. I USED TO BE A REGULAR. I STOPPED COMING BY SINCE THEY GOT RID OF THE CHUNCKY BEEF BURRITO YEARS BACK. I RETURNED YESTERDAY EVENING 10/12/2023 AT AROUND 6PM FOR DINNER. THE LOCATION AT THAT TIME IS NOT BUSY. THERE IS PLENTY OF PARKING. THE FACILITY HAS CAMERAS INSIDE AND OUT FOR YOUR PEACE OF MIND. THERE'S A SINGLE-FAMILY RESTROOM AVAILABLE. YOU DO HAVE TO ASK FOR THE KEY. THERE'S COMFORTABLE TABLE SEATING SIMILAR TO BOOTH TYPE. THEY HAVE HIGHCHAIRS FOR BABIES. MY HUSBAND HAD THE BEEF PASTRAMI MEAL THAT INCLUDES THE SANDWHICH, FRIES AND A DRINK FOR $17.99. MY TEEN SON HAD THE PLAIN DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER MEAL WITH FRIES AND A DRINK. FOR $11.99 I HAD THE AVOCADO BACON CHEESEBIRGER WITH FRIES AND A DRINK FOR $12.99. WE TOOK OUR 7TH MONTH OLD BOY WITH US. HE USED A WOOD HIGHCHAIR. WE HAD TO PUT A ONSIE AND A BLANKET ON HIM BECAUSE IT'S CHILLY IN THERE WHICH IS FINE FOR US BUT NOT THE BABY. ANYWAY, THE SERVICE: IF YOU HAVE VISITED THE BURGER PALACE BEFORE, YOU KNOW THAT IT'S THE HOOD. TO ME SERVICE WAS GREAT, THE WORKERS ARE EFFICIENT, LOUD, FAST AND FRIENDLY. THEY CAN BE FUNNY AND THROW JOKES DURING THE INTERACTION BUT I CAN SEE WHY SOME PEOPLE WOULD GET OFFENDED. THE RESTAURANT IS CLEAN: OFCOURSE THERE'S VANDALISM BUT THE FLOOR AND TABLES ARE CLEAN AND RESTROOM IS EQUIPPED WITH EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED TO TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS. THE CUSTOMERS/CLIENTELE IS SOMETHING ELSE THOUGH!! WITNESSES THREE CASES OF DIFFICULT CUSTOMERS WHILE EATING THERE. THEY PUT ON A SHOW! CUSTOMERS SCREAM OUT "CUT IT IN HALF" "ADD MORE CHEESE" ... HOW DO THEY EVEN KNOW THAT'S THEIR FOOD??? LOL! ALSO, MULTIPLE SKETCHY PEOPLE ENTERING THE FACILITY TRYING TO TRADE ITEMS SUCH AS SHOES, WALLETS, FLASHLIGHTS FOR FOOD. I WAS ON THE LOOKOUT BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT SOMEONE MIGHT SNATCH MY PHONE. THE FOOD: PRICEY BUT WORTH THE PRICE! HONESTLY! I HAVE NEVER PAID $17.99 FOR A BEEF PASTRAMI SANDWHICH MEAL. THE SANDWHICH WAS BIG AND PACKED WITH MEAT. MY HUSBAND ONLY ATE 1/2 AND SAVED THE OTHER HALF FOR WORK LUNCH. THE BURGERS WERE SO DELICIOUS, BIG, JUICY AND FULL OF FLAVOR. THE FRIES WERE SO CRISPY AND THE FOUNTAIN DRINKS HAD CO2 AND GREAT FLAVOR. WE LEFT FAT, FULL, HAPPY AND WILL DEFINETLY RETURN. DO CHECK YOUR BURGER BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE RESTAURANTIF YOU ORDERED IT A SPECIAL WAY. MY SON'S CHEESEBURGER WAS NOT PLAIN BUT IT WAS NO BIG DEAL, THEY TOOK CARE OF US. ALSO, COUNT YOUR CHANGE. A GUY PAYED WITH $100 AND RECEIVED THE WRONG CHANGE.”
“Very disappointed in the entertainment. No beetle juice, only 3 performers (Raven, sally, and corpse bride). Was not worth the 100 dollars we each paid. It was very boring waiting for the entertainment to come out and then only for a very short time. I give the entertainment 1 star.”
“It's too bad they closed. The food was great. No more Chinese restaurants in San Pedro other than the Panda Express and Northern Cafe. The food at Panda Express is just okay. The food at the Northern Cafe is excellent. If you haven't tried it you are missing out. I highly recommend it. Nim Chans is also very good for take out”
“It is the best place to go to eat was seeing the bad comments. Those people are the one who likes to eat all that food they sell outside that Michoacana because they have no manners or taste of the good clean and the service of those who attendI go from Long Beach because a relative recommended me and everything is very tasty 😋 very clean and its excellent pity that is located in that aria of people who do not value the good [Original] Es el mejor lugar para ir a comer estaba viendo los malos comentarios esa gente es la que le gusta comer toda esa comida que venden a fuera de esa michoacana porque no tienen modales ni sabor de lo bueno lo limpio y el servicio de los que atienden yo voy de Long Beach porque un familiar me recomendó y todo está muy sabroso 😋 muy limpio y su personal excelente lástima que está ubicado en esa aria de gente que no valora lo bueno”
“A little over 3 years ago, Fleur Cafe opened, and has been a fine success as a small, one-of family restaurant with excellent service and great food at reasonable prices. Now they have expanded their kitchen, and finally introduced an expanded menu with wonderful new dishes added to the popular favorites! I personally enjoy the outdoor dining option, but they have also got a nice little dining room. Prices have gone up a bit, but it is still a very reasonable breakfast, brnch and lunch choice.”
“I went to Geshmak last week on a Thursday. It was a great ambiance to be in plus they had their Shabbos Takeout Menu available (yes, they had cholent). The food was spectacular and the service was even better! I very much appreciated the kid's menu, although very simple, my kids ate it all and that's always the hard part. The dine-in kid's menu has a coloring sheet so the kids were entertained the whole time! 10/10 would come back again.”

“I was in LA a couple of weeks ago on business and found this spot the day before leaving and that's my biggest regret. Wish we'd found it the first day we we're there I'd have been eating there everyday. The food and atmosphere are excellent and a live DJ playing music we all grew up on (can you dig it ✊?). The purple (grape) kool-aid was a blast from the past fo so.”
“Beautiful 360 senses experience. The chopped salad, mussels (with a sauce I could drink!) tagliatelle, followed by the best dish of the night, the lamb neck (with lettuce wrap, fresh dill and mint) with creme fraiche sauce. Exquisite and unforgettable. The cab franc wine paired perfectly and was well priced! Daniel, our server, was attentive and knowledgeable. Best(Ia) is a must foodie experience!!”
“The Speakeasy at The Tam is fun! I love the eclectic cocktail menu offered in the private Speakeasy room. I never knew that back room existed. I wish the small-bite food menu was expanded just a bit. My wife and I both ordered the Shepherds Pie, which was delicious but not hot enough.”
“We had a wonderful experience at Odyssey Restaurant as the host venue for my late father's Celebration of Life Reception. The event team and wait staff were fantastic, in particular Jessica Hermosillo (the Catering Sales Manager) was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to accomodate us and was extremely sensitive given the circumstances of our event. I would without hesitation recommend Odyssey Restaurant as an event venue. We were in the Atlantis Room and it was just beautiful and has a lovely view of the San Fernando Valley and a great outdoor terrace area from which to appreciate it. Thank you, Jessica and the events and catering team at Odyssey, for setting the scene for a beautiful farewell to my father.”
“The only reason you are getting 5 stars is because Polina was an absolute GEM. Our server completely ghosted us roughly 15 min into our evening and didn’t tell us he was leaving (even though he spent approx 10 minutes hugging people goodbye), and we never got introduced to another server.She was the only one who paid attention to us, gave us EXCELLENT SERVICE the remainder of the night (even though she was clearly only meant to be a runner), and spent the rest of the evening doing TWO JOBS.These other servers didn’t stop once to check in (we were looking very clearly LOST - it was apparently only obvious to her!!!)The only reason we are coming back is because POLINA saved your reputation”
“Seating was a little tight but the food was very good! The service was great too. The food was definitely not as spicy as I thought it would be for a Korean restaurant so it’s definitely friendly for those that prefer non to low spice.
Dietary restrictions: They do have non seafood options but I can’t say if it’s safe for someone with severe allergies
Wheelchair accessibility: The seating was very tight so it may be difficult for someone with a mobility aid”
“I have lived in Los Angeles for over 40 years and just discovered this hidden gem named Terra! A friend recommended it and I am so grateful she did. It was such a pleasant dining experience. My friend and I had the brunch special on Memorial Day and it was excellent. Exceptional food, exceptional service ( Morgan was amazing), and the ambience and view were spectacular. I will be going back again and again!”

“Great Korean BBQ & Attentive ServiceThis is a fantastic spot for authentic Korean BBQ in K-Town. I would rate this place a 4.5, but I'm giving it 5 stars to be generous. While it's not all-you-can-eat (which I actually prefer for a more focused dining experience), the quality of the food is top-notch. Their set menus come with a variety of delicious sides, including cheese corn and spicy noodles to finish. No more lunch box on the menu, but some of the best kimchi fried rice in K-Town—a must-try side dish.The restaurant is almost always buzzing, but the service is excellent. The staff is attentive and will even cook your food at the table for you if you'd like. The atmosphere is lively with good music and a fun crowd. It's conveniently located in Chapman Plaza, which offers a few other bars and restaurants, and is close to many other options on 6th Street.I noticed some reviews mentioning changes since COVID. While there have been some adjustments, the overall experience is still fantastic.Overall: this place is a must-try for anyone looking for delicious Korean BBQ with a fun vibe and great service.
Parking: The small lots in Chapman Plaza fill up quickly. There's a much more convenient option: the parking garage across S. Kenmore next to Woo Hyang Woo Korean BBQ (545 S Kenmore Ave, K 3 Parking). It's a flat $20 and stays open until 1 AM.”
“i’m not a review girly but i had to take the time to write one for this gem of a coffee shop ❣️ FINALLY somewhere in LA to get SporTea (if you haven’t ever had it please try it it’s the BEST) not only that - but their peanut-butter latte is truly out of this world.such kind staff. amazing coffee. not the best seating if you want to sit for a long time (more of a good time than a long time kinda vibe) but truly my new favorite in LA!”
“I reached out to Flouring about creating a custom cake for my friend's birthday, and they helped make her dream cake a reality! I sent them an reference photo and the cake they made came out even cuter than what I had in mind. My friend was over the moon happy when she saw the cake and everyone at dinner was raving about how amazing the cake looked and tasted.They made the entire process so easy from start to finish, I couldn't be happier.Thank you to the Flouring team!”
“Lovely and uber yummy new spot for Poke (bowl of fresh, raw fish on rice w/ toppings) & Temaki (sushi hand roll) in Highland Park.Being a transplant from the 626, Poke has always been one of the food staples of my life. These folks here do it right. After 5 separate visits over a month, I can most definitely say:*Super fresh fish and seafood. Not a hint of fish past its prime or, worse, not properly stored.*Rice is hot and freshly made.*Topping selections are plenty and very familiar to those who love Poke.*Sauce is just right. Not too sheisty and not drenching the whole thing.*Hand Rolls are made on the spot. All the same qualities above.*Kitchen and preparation area are PRISTINE clean.

“This is the best Thai restaurant in town. It's the kind of spot where you want to go back every week with two or three dear friends for a relaxed conversation while sharing most of the delicious items on the menu. Here, Jitlada meets Sticky Rice meets Luv2Eat meets Sovereign Thai (in San Diego, check this out, too!) meets Night Market!”
“Highly recommend. The prices are fully consistent with the quality, the recipes are excellent, the products are fresh and, what is important for me, you can watch the dishes being prepared. It's hard to imagine that such a clean and welcoming cafe could be located in a gas station, but it is! Try La Torta - it's amazingly delicious! I give this cafe the highest rating :)”
“I recently visited Cabo Wabo Cantina in Hollywood during my trip to California, and I can't stop raving about it! The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring our experience was nothing short of amazing. The bartender made a special drink for us that was refreshing and delicious, making it the perfect spot for an afternoon on Hollywood Blvd. I can't wait to visit again on my next trip to Hollywood.”
“Delicious dining at it's best. Cornbread out of this world and best clams I've ever had!”
