“Great dining in a beautiful atmosphere. The service was very attentive. The food was spectacular and the cocktails were fantastic. Great selection of mezcals, tequila, and other Mexican alcohol. The portions of food are definitely to be shared.“
“This is an L.A. bar with an NYC feel…post gentrification. A good place for an intimate situation or for bein’ a gaggle of gays and theys. Not sure about the pricing as I was treated to my libations, but the service was friendly. I appreciated the attentiveness. They have high tops on one side and soft seating on the other with bar seating in between the two.“
“It’s an amazing over all experience. Great to take a group of friends to share the experience with and the food share style is fun . The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The food is amazing . The atmosphere is a cool chill vibe that is welcoming and it matches its cool aesthetics“
“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.“
“Hands down the best breakfast biscuits I've had. I stop here every single time I'm in l.a. I finally tried something new and ordered the ADB Loco Motto, and it didn't disappoint. The drinks were strong and good. Get there early because it's a neighborhood favorite and fills up fast. The space is cozy, and parking is very limited.Parking: I only saw metered street parking, and there weren't a lot of spots available. You may have to park down the street and walk down to the restaurant.“
“Wow, wow, wow! From the minute we were greeted by the doorman and we entered the beautiful space, we knew we were in for a treat. And in the VALLEY, no less! What a gem. The nightclub vibe and attention to detail were what we noticed first. We really appreciated the seamless, knowledgable, and friendly attentiveness of the waitstaff. The music was spot-on. We wish the sets could've been a little longer but I'm sure there's a reason they weren't. Because it feels there is a reason for EVERYTHING here. The cocktails were delicious and perfectly balanced (Mezcal Negroni and Toluca Sunrise). And the food! Milk buns are a must. I could've made a meal of the roasted corn - creamy, flavorful deliciousness. Lamb pasta, crushed potato and the New York were perfect. A second bread option would be nice to eat with the mains. Wish we'd saved room for dessert! Next time. Because there will DEFINITELY be a next time.“
“A beautiful date night spot where you can sit beneath string lights nestled in an alleyway, listening to live music (plus, they have outdoor heaters!). Plates are tapas style and the bar is full, with an advantage for mezcal enthusiasts. Bonus- The wait staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They recommended some drinks for us to try and gave us some suggestions on the entrees. The drinks were great and we recommend the sea bass! Nice atmosphere with good service and lots of mezcal.“
“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.“
“Great views and yummy food. Menu is quite eclectic with an Asian and Middle Eastern twist. Our waitress Jambeth was nice and politely asked us when we sat down if we had a show at the Pantages. That was very thoughtful and much appreciated. As it was we were there for my birthday and so we were not in a rush and could enjoy the skyline and cuisine. Ordered the shrimp cocktail, chicken liver and charred carrot starter. Had Cacio & Pepe, Charmoula and Duck Confit as our main. Was given a complementary dessert as it was my birthday with a candle which was a lovely gesture. Would definitely go back for drinks on summer evening and enjoy the sunset.“
“Cute little bar in the neighborhood! As a fellow yelper said, a great place to do before going "out out" if you know what that means. Neat, modern, kinda dark, good mix of people. Come for the drinks, stay for the interesting people you might meet. This unassuming bar was a pleasant surprise and I'd come back again.“
“Absolutely fabulous! The beef tartare was superb. I had the black truffle risotto and there is nothing better than that on the menu in my personal opinion, rich, creamy, earthy, simply delicious. My mom had the crab pasta which was so complex, but the lumps of crab added such a lovely ocean flavor to every bite. Our server was incredible! She was so attentive and kind and patient with us. But the best part of the meal was the tiramisu, not your typical tiramisu but the chocolate record decoration made the whole evening. Also the cocktails were worth every penny, expertly crafted and unique.“
“Solid selection of tacos, counter service, where you order, huge drink selection, including a $200 margarita meant for 16 people (sorry that’s not pictured we must have finished it so quickly). Generous portions, and all the tacos which he would hope for spending at least $5/taco.“
“A few friends and I came for dinner recently. We were promptly seated on the cozy patio. Our server, I think his name is Levi? approached. He was so sweet. One of my friends is from the midwest and had on a missouri sweatshirt. Levi started talking to him and us and told us he too was from Missouri. We all felt completely at ease . The service was impeccable. One of my friends is kind of annoying with ingrediants and Levi was so knowledgeable about the menu and even suggested his favorite mocktails for the non-drinkers. A wonderful experience. We will definitely be back.“
“One of the meals I’ve had. The whipped feta was a dream with maybe my favorite pita I’ve tasted. Carrots were perfect. Sweet potatoes were delicious but definitely have a kick if you’re sensitive to spice. Steak frites were best fries I’ve ever had. Drinks were strong and so tasty. Can’t wait to go back“
“Our first time to this beautiful restaurant . We tried the tasting menu! WOW was it amazing. Loved learning about the wines. Had the featured drink of the week by Finn. loved it. It was garnished with a petite flower. My only regret is I got full and couldn't eat it all. Thank you to Matt our server for a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back. The lobster pie was so creamy and delicious. The steak was so flavorful and tender.“
“This place is excellent. Every dish we tried was good, but the standouts for me were the clam toast and crispy potatoes. The bread for the toast was perfect and the potatoes were just the right amount of fluffiness on the inside and crispy outside. My mouth is watering just writing this. The trout was worth getting as well. I will definitely be back to try more dishes.“
“Nossa Caipirinha Bar offers an authentic Brazilian experience right in the heart of Los Feliz. My partner and I recently indulged in a late-night adventure at this vibrant establishment, and we were thoroughly impressed.From the moment we entered, we were greeted by the lively beats of Brazilian music, instantly transporting us to the streets of Rio. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with warm décor adding to the immersive experience.The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the cocktails. Each drink was meticulously crafted with quality ingredients, perfectly capturing the essence of Brazilian flavors. Whether it was the classic caipirinha or one of their signature creations, every sip was a delight for the senses.As the night progressed, the bartender recommended we try Brazilian fernet, and we're glad we did. It was a bold and flavorful choice that left a lasting impression, showcasing the bar's dedication to offering unique and authentic experiences.Overall, Nossa Caipirinha Bar exceeded our expectations, delivering not only exceptional drinks but also a memorable cultural journey. Whether you're a connoisseur of Brazilian cuisine or simply looking for a lively atmosphere to unwind, Nossa Caipirinha Bar is a must-visit destination. Obrigado for an unforgettable evening!“
“Nick's always delivers great food at reasonable prices. My wife had the seafood cioppino with was good but it didn't have any scallops or crabs in it. The broth had a lot of cooked tomatoes. I had the meatloaf which was very good. Service was great and the sour dow bread is the best.“
“Phoebe went above and beyond. Normally I stay away from hotel bars but the taste and the quality of drinks here was beyond top notch. Local, tourist doesn’t matter this bar has some of the best service in the area and you can trust any of the bar tenders to treat you right.“
“Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and Amanda saw to it that we had a wonderful experience. She was so welcoming and helpful. Many places have incredible drinks but if the service doesn't match, who knows if you'll remember it a few months down the road. The service is what makes people come back! She nailed it.The cocktails were delicious as well, we are familiar with the craft cocktail scene and these drinks were on point and an awesome price! Ambience was spot on too.Next time we are in LA we will return!“
“Absolutely love everything about this place. Experience the rich flavors of Yucatán while relaxing and enjoying the ambiance and decor. Every dish is made with intention and heart well thought out and full of culinary creativity. The drinks are amazing as well. A must try.“
“This is an absolutely wonderful place…warm, inviting and friendly! I have been on several occasions and each time the food has been delicious and the service was always promo and attentive! But for me, the most important part of my experience was the people. The staff truly makes this a great place to be.“
“The service here is outstanding, making for a lovely meal. The food, while very delicious, didn’t quite meet my high expectations for this restaurant. The interior, nice, but not the most refined. Overall a great meal, but just not quite worthy of highest praise.“
“Do you have a trusted manager who is very reliable and dependable? Hurry up and start your trade with Mrs Craig Vanessa she is the best among all. I have tried 2 of them but she proves me right and helps me gain high profit. So why don't you invest with her so you can start making decent profit on crypto. All I did was to make the first deposit and I made my withdrawal yesterday. I'm so happy and excited please and please hurry up and start earning money for the future now. I'm going to invest for my children. For more information, visit her Facebook Page: Mrs Craig Vanessa“
“Had a girls night at Broken Compass, and we had a blast! We did have to wait for a table to open up (maybe 20 minutes), but they had an indoor lounge area where we could order drinks from the bar.Drinks were great! You’ll find unique cocktails from the menu and you can still order OG tiki drinks such as a Painkiller, Blue Hawaiians, and more.I tried the smash burger, per our waitress’s recommendation. I’m not a pickle girly, and unfortunately, that’s all I tasted when eating it. My fault for not reading the ingredients! Paired it with fries topped with Cajun seasoning and with a thousand island dressing. They were SO good!Every staff member we encountered was so hospitable and kind, and went above and beyond to serve us!Dietary restrictions: GF options!Parking: No designated parking lot, but wasn’t difficult to find street parking.“
“Met Anderson Paak the last time I was here, but I’d already dubbed this place my favorite local spot long before I danced with my idol under the disco ball.Strictly vinyl. Great cocktail menu.Only negative: their digital branding needs work. Kinda wish they’d hire me to curate their social media. ?“
“Fun classic and tasty with the perfect ambiance and level of server attention. If you want the flavor of the islands while thirsting for a perfectly balanced drink, this is your place. So beautifully and traditionally designed - it's clearly an island in and of itself in NoHo Arts District.“
“Cool little bar to watch a game & grab a drink. We also ordered some chicken nachos & they hit the spot. The parking was a little tricky, but we found parking on the street (not sure if there was additional parking in the back somewhere). I enjoyed looking at their wall art - very LA. The service was good too!“
“If you're on the lookout for an establishment that blends top-notch cocktails with an unbeatable atmosphere, look no further than Powerhouse Bar. Tucked away in the heart of the Hollywood, this gem stands out as a haven for cocktail enthusiasts and social butterflies alike.“
“Nice Mexican restaurant in the Los Feliz neighborhood in LA. The restaurant had great ambiance and attentive service. We had an assortment of vegan and vegetarian sides, including flautas (made vegan), beans, rice, and fingerling potatoes. The dessert options included vegan sorbets and vegetarian churros.Vegetarian options: Good vegetarian options with a clearly labeled menu. Many of the Vegetarian items can be made vegan.“
“We went on Saturday night around 9pm, cocktails were outstanding!! Delicious and balanced! Great prices and there were 2 people attending the whole place but it was not too crowded, we ordered fries with steak and the meat was very soft, we'll definitely come back , lots of street parking!“
“I've been to Skaf's a couple of times now. As many reviewers note, the cheese roll is a must get if you love and respect yourself and your happiness. Queso fresco and feta fried in the crispiest wrapper is a match made in heaven.Grape leaves are also a wonderful appetizer, especially if you're like me and could accidentally put away 12 of this if not paying attention.I often find falafel to be disappointing in restaurants and much better homemade, but Skaf's falafel would give even the best homemade falafel a run for its money. The texture is exactly how it should be - crisp, crunchy exterior with a soft (but not gummy) interior. The falafel is also jam packed with flavor and surrounded by insanely well executed tabbouleh (perfectly seasoned), cabbage salad, hummus, and babaganouj. Their wraps are solid as well, but the veggie combo plate is where it's at!Lebanese coffee on the side on a rainy day at Skaf's. Kindest servers as well“
“The restaurant is the best. One of a kind menu. The chef do this weird but really creative culinary plates that doesnt make sense, you cant even imagine how it will taste, but i know for sure it will be really boom. You will be fascinated. I am an honest and serious customer. Although the place its just a little small and i will change it to 5 star once i think it deserve it. In my opinion. Customer service really good. Security, bartenders as well do their job as it should be. Just the small room doesnt make me go up to 5 star, but we'll see sometime.“
“This was our first time at this restaurant and it was very good. There was a wide variety of items on the menu, and it was difficult to choose because everything sounded so good. We decided on the enchiladas Suizas & quesadilla Lito with chicken, which were delicious. Our server was very friendly & attentiveand made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back to try more items on the menu.“
“My girlfriend and I went to our second Valentine's dinner here last week. Not many places can pull off Valentines Day like Bistro 45 does. Everything came out timely and up to their usual standards. Our favorite waiter Mehdi treated us like family. This is the most consistent restaurant we've ever eaten at. Thank you guys so much! Rick and Linda“
“the food is fantastic one of my favorite is the pasta with the vodka sauce pasta and you add any protein you want which is really great, my second favorite dish has to be the pizza ? I don't know what it is but that pizza feels like Crack is so addictive, and let's not even get started on the steak and fries ? that is the best! The staff is amazingly friendly, the servers were great the THANKS TO THE CHEF THE FOOD WAS EXQUISITE right a perfection and the cocktail drinks were amazing as well this place won't disappoint you Thank you chef jose and front manager jose and mitch. Yall provided a great experienceWheelchair accessibility: Yes it's wheelchair accessible“
“I celebrated my birthday this weekend at The Famous, Bianca one of the bartenders was amazing.! Great customer service.! Including the owner, as I planned my party he communicated with me And made sure everything was good. This was my first time. I am definitely going back highly recommend this place.“
“The drinks here are well crafted and delicious! These bartenders know what they're talking about when it comes to mixology. Big Bar hosts fun, quirky events too. Solid place for an afternoon drink or dinner...Don't get me started on the bakery!“
“Inventive tongue in cheek bites. The dry age steak and drinks are excellent. Menu highlights are also the Lobsta, yellowtail aguachile. If you have a sweet tooth you have a tower of desserts. Great sunset spot for the view and good service!“
“Always the go to for a simple yet lively and fun time with friends and great food! Chad is always a ray of sunshine when he is there...an extra bonus! And Gen is such a on it server. You just can not beat the vibe there, great service, great food...and you are always walking out making new friends! I can't think of a negative time here....and tonight was just another kick ass fun times!! If you ever need a place that is accomodating to parties, celebrations, or just to unwind...this is it!“
“So my friends invited us here because it was allegedly haunted and although we didn't see a ghost it was still really fun! It's a really unique bar, super small and intimate, and since it's next to the Pantages Theatre you get to see a lot of interesting characters. The vibe is cool, and not serious, I would say it's a good place to get the feel of HOLLYWOOD.“

“Historical Pasadena restaurant that some people forget about. I hadn’t been here for years until this evening. I’d give 5 stars, but my pork chop was dry and little overcooked. Everything else was wonderful, including the drinks. It’s very intimate inside, but as the restaurant fills up it gets quite loud. The patio is covered and heated, but you may find yourself having to talk over the nearby tables or road noise. Valet parking only, $8 at the time of this review. There is street parking available on Fair Oaks though.“
“Food is good. Atmosphere is great ? But the parking is something else. It's very small and if there's no parking whatsoever you'd have to park somewhere else and it's not easy to find parking there at all. This restaurant is very pricey. A little expensive for someone/families who are on a budget.“
“I did not have a reservation and the restaurant was really crowded on a Friday night. Yet they gave me space at the bar to enjoy the night as a solo traveller. Had a rose (brut) and some fantastic duck pasta. So so so delicious dinner and you cannot miss the panna cotta, Absolutely loved it as it wanted speed .Enjoyed the music and accompanying wine.Friendly bartenders, waiters and managers. Constantly checking on you making the environment so buzz.“
“I really enjoyed dining at Edendale. The beer selection was above-average, the food top-notch, and the service was outstanding. Our server, I believe her name was Missy, was efficient, friendly, and, dare I say, playfully flirtatious. Her charm made this meal memorable in just about every way. I'll be sure to visit Edendale when I'm in this part of town again.“

“Employees Only had been on our list for quite some time, so we were excited to snag a reservation and enjoy some sips and bites. The server was nice and the food was tasty. We especially enjoyed their mushroom pizza and house fries. When it comes to drinks, perhaps it was just that this place had been overhyped as some of LA's best cocktails, but I found them to be just okay. I tried the Midnight Breakfast and Eospresso and they were both ... fine. I wish there was something a little more memorable about them. The environment felt electric and trendy, but even right at open, grew loud with voices and pumped-in music. I think I'd recommend it to everyone to try once, but it wasn't the quiet, brilliant cocktail lounge I was hoping it might be.“
“Granville was one of the first restaurants I've eaten at since movigto Pasadena 2 years ago. Each time I've gone, the service is always attentive and welcoming.The atmosphere is very trendy and I really do love the open layout overall. The food and drinks have always been a hit for me, I've tried almost everything on their menu and I haven't been disappointed. My go to cocktail is the cu cucumber martini, which is very refreshing! Definitely check them out if you're in the area. Very good for a date night or a group hang.“

“Pasadena and downtown this last fortnight. Nostagic deliciousness @parkwaygrill, peerless steaks. Returning there for the fourth time - our first visit was in 1994. Last night we enjoyed @majordomola . Koreanish food, at it's best generous and full flavoured. Standouts include the pork shoulder, duck confit rice and the flambe(d) doughnuts.Next time we'll try their signature rib dish too. Take an appetite and lots of family. Also loved Houstons. Beautiful restaurant with signature French dip sandwich @houstonsrestaurants“

“Casa Cordoba is a true Spanish culinary gem! My fiancée and I had an unforgettable evening, transported to Spain from the moment we stepped inside. The vibrant ambiance, fueled by live flamenco music and dance, added an enchanting touch to our dining experience. The food was exceptional--we savored the special tasting menu featuring four delightful tapas of our choice plus dessert for a reasonable $65. Each dish was a masterpiece, with the ham croquets stealing the spotlight. The owner's personal touch, greeting every guest despite the packed restaurant, added warmth to the evening. Richard, our server, was a standout with his infectious laugh and impeccable service, making us feel like VIPs. The restaurant's authentic design, from décor to table settings, completed the immersive experience. Casa Cordoba is a must-visit whether you're a foodie, music lover, or seeking a memorable night out. We're eagerly anticipating our next visit!“
