“Best Seafood Restaurant in LA”

“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!”

“One of the most amazing meals I’ve had.”

“Ordered the off-menu Pomodoro pasta and it did not disappoint. The tomato and petit basil sauce was bright, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The wax beans were a standout - snappy and bright with serrano chile, toasted hazelnuts, and a tangy Frenchie vinaigrette. The garden lettuces were crisp and well dressed with radish vinaigrette, fresh dill, walnuts, and shallots. Good vibe, happy staff, great mix of flavors. The orange wine pairing tied it all together. Highly recommend Updated from previous review on 2026-03-29”

“Wonderful service and outstanding food.”

“Great atmosphere friendly staff and amazing food 😎”

“Good Japanese foods , many varieties of dishes . The fish grilled sea bass is cooked just perfectly fine . The salad is kinda american Japanese fusion but still good . The carbonara noodle - I don’t really care (It doesn’t really fit with the rest of the dishes) - overall is a great place to enjoy Japanese foods”

“No doubt this is among the best fried chicken in LA!!”

“Someone recommended this restaurant for me and I was really impressed, it’s a small cozy restaurant but the food was really great and the service was very good. Everything we ordered was really delicious. I highly recommend it.”

“So good!!! Amazing. Love the food. The bok choy pot stickers OOOF! The best. 💜💜💜👑👑👑🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽💞💞💞💝💝👨‍❤️‍👨🧡”

“Excellents croissant français.”

“The tasting menu is full of unique seafood dishes, and the portions are generous.”

“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.”

“Kantutan to the max🤣🤣 see photo”

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?”

“Went to this place a month ago and I’m still thinking about it. Endive salad, flat bread starter with the barbacoa, shrimp, steak, and branzino were stellar.”

“Tonight we, my husband and I, with our dear friends, the Crays, dined at Tomat for the first of what will be many times. The restaurant features a dining room and a roof top patio. A welcoming, comfortable space. The staff were all friendly and very knowledgeable about all menu items. Our server Miley took excellent care of us throughout dinner and dessert. She assisted us with choosing items that would pair well with each other. She was never too busy to stop to see if everything was to our liking. She brought the chef to our table so we could let him know personally how much we enjoyed his creations. He gave us a bit of background on his plan of sustainability and creativity for his restaurant. The food was amazing. We had several appetizers. The tuna carpaccio was amazing, light and dark tuna with the freshest tomatoes. The welsh rarebit was so delicious. The weiser melon with strawberry kimchi was a delicious surprise. The house milled saffron rice was amazing. Our mains did not disappoint. The trout and chips were excellent. Everyone at the table said “best trout we have ever had”. The vegetable chips were outstanding. The vaca vieja ribeye was perfectly cooked. The pork three ways with chamoy was also perfectly cooked. Dessert was madelines, warm from the oven, with the strawberry sorbet and the saffron ice cream. All were outstanding. Overall, this was a fabulous dining experience. Great food with great service in such a comfortable atmosphere. And, we have already made reservations for next month!”

“the vibes were perfect. music was awesome. service was absolutely top notch. i just: the steak frite. it tasted fishy. at first i thought it was that the little dollop they provide had some element of fish sauce or roe. but i don’t think that was intentional. fish on the pan/grill? the steak itself was nicely prepared but i found it hard to cut, perhaps due to the type of steak. no expert ! but it didn’t hit. for the price point, it was super tasty and filling and delicious, but it wasn’t what i pictured or exactly wanted. staff, again, were amazing; food, less than; drinks and wine and digestif, incredible. come for the drinks ! the steak frite, skippable.”

“Excellent deep dish style pizza.”

“One of the best meals that I have had!”

“So good!! We ordered the squash blossom quesadilla and the taco Sonia. They were both really good. The tortillas are especially delicious. We also got the strawberry hibiscus agua Fresca and holy crap.. might be the best drink I’ve ever had 😋”

“The pizza was to die for — we had the margarita pizza — thin crust and sauce delicious. We had the artichoke burrata appetizer which was delicious too. The area where the restaurant is located is very cool. Enjoyable all the way around.”

“Ended up here accidentally on a layover: Hands down, the best ramen I’ve ever had (springy, slurpy perfection), amazing cocktails (if you like gin the Japanese 75 is a must try!), and whatever the whipped cream, creme brûlée’d banana dessert was tasted like heaven. I even ordered another tonkotsu ramen to go (all the way to Florida) to bring back to my fiancé. They separated all of it, packaged it so it wouldn’t leak, and wrote directions on specific timing for heating up each item! Very impressive service. I’ll be back 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.”

“Tasty bbq take out outside. Amazing desserts to ans friendly staff”

“Was awesome to find a restaurant with my two favorites…GF and Southern!”

“the prices aren't are not that expensive they got some good food here and good staff”

“The sushi here is amazing for the price!! And the katsu chicken was also so delicious !! I would suggest checking out yama!! The reason why I gave it a 4 stars and not a 5 star is because the space is super small, and it does get overwhelming! I had a rude experience with a customer, they don’t know how to say excuse me lol. (I got the Cali roll with the salmon avocado roll!) I also asked for eel sauce:)!!”

“The servers were super warm and friendly, and the restaurant had an amazing vibe! I especially loved that almost every table has a clear view of the open kitchen, so you can chat while watching the chefs showcase their incredible skills!We ordered the Eggs Benedict, breakfast quesadilla, and a breakfast platter. The presentation was gorgeous, with a total 'Iron Chef' style, and every single dish tasted just as amazing as it looked! 😄”

“Visiting LA this week and had a fab time at the Clark Street Diner, excellent food😋”

“Great service! The girl serving us is timely and very kind! The lamb meat is fresh and yummy, I love all the great ingredients they serve, the kids really enjoy the food!”

“Nathan is the host with the most. He is always pleasant and accommodating. The food was amazing and the service was good. I took a friend from out of town and I am so glad I did. Lulu never disappoints.”

“We had an amazing experience at n/soto! The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and full of unique flavors. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive. You can really tell how much care goes into every dish. Definitely a place worth visiting, and we’ll be coming back!”

“My husband and I had an amazing time here. Anthony and Gabriel were amazing. They really took the time to make sure our experience was 10/10. I can tell that they enjoy what they do and it made me enjoy the experience even more! The food was delicious!!! Thank you for a wonderful dinner.”

“Delicious authentic Roman cuisine …”

“Simply delicious, we enjoy sunday brunch!”

“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!”

“I felt right at home here. What a great find in DTLA. Special thanks to Ian for the recommendations and surprises. Excellent from start to finish. The freshest and best ingredients. Especially enjoyed the burrata, freshley baked bread, tomoatoes, and the affogato dessert.”

“Except for the location of the restaurant, which is not easy to find, and a little too much sushi rice, everything else is perfect.”

“We had such a wonderful time. Amazing wine & terrific food!”

“After our Altadena house burned down, we relocated to Barker Block and absolutely love being so close to Manuela. We used to have a fire table like yours, so dining here always carries a sense of home. Last night we brought friends, and they said, ‘This makes it hard to go out to eat in Monrovia—our restaurants cut corners with cheap ingredients and fast turnover.’ What your chefs create is the opposite: dishes with not just incredible flavor but extraordinary texture and detail. Their expertise is off the charts, and I highly recommend.”

“I like the beef combo & definitely will be back again”

“Delicious! Really interesting and tasty food.”

“I had Japanese breakfast w/ miso black cod, it was tasty.”

“We stopped by while visiting LA, in search of good local tacos and Taco La 26 did not disappoint!!! The tortillas were fresh, the salsa was delicious & the al pastor was my favorite! I love that they have free roasted potato’s and onions, so no matter what you get a filling meal.

You order at the food station then pay at the counter with the square machines. No where to sit but honestly they’ll be gone before you could sit down.

It is a block from skid row, & as tourist we weren’t familiar - but like anywhere else, just pay attention to your surroundings. The location is gated and there’s plenty of parking.

Open late and so delicious! 10/10 recommend & would DEFINITELY eat here again.”

“This Korean restaurant is absolutely fantastic and deserves full marks. The side dishes are freshly made and full of rich flavors. The food we ordered tastes amazing. The staff are warm, attentive and quick to refill our plates. The dining space is clean with a cozy Korean vibe. Portions are generous for the price. It was such a wonderful meal, and I will definitely come back to try more dishes soon.”

“I la la la loooove Tommy's!”

“My server was great and the restaurant was very clean after eating i asked to speak to the manager and tell him how the restaurant was very clean, thank you Dennys”

“This was my first time at Patties N Tingz. I purchased their medium spicy beef patty. It tasted good ,it had enough meat in the middle, and the bread was flacky on the outside. The only issue l I had was that it was too soft in the middle for my liking. I’ll be back to try more. My overall score for the patties is 4.2 🌟. Customer service is a 4.0🌟.”

“Great spot for authentic Italian dishes and chill atmosphere. It’s been a neighborhood delight for nearly twenty years. Penne vodka is addictive.”

“Incluso asen su ciberterrorismo y atentados terroristas asesinos mierdas que mataron amis padres esperan que llegien de su escula para ladrar y torturar y trastornar amis hijos. Con su terrorismo or”

“The food is decent but hella over-priced. There's a reason you don't see their sandwiches in their marketing promotions, you're better off at Subway for that. $10 for a basic little sandwich with barely anything on it is crazy work.”

“Spring never disappoints! We brought friends from out of town, and we had a wonderful meal, starting with the white shrimp appetizer. The duck received rave reviews for the richness of flavor as well as the preparation. The saffron in the bourride complemented the fish. We closed with a panna cotta that was light and fresh. Spring is such a gem. We always enjoy our dinners there, and we are happy to have it in DTLA!”

“Norms is the kind of place that reminds you why diners still matter. The bacon? Crispy. Like, perfectly engineered, science-approved crispy. The people? Friendly in that effortless, genuine way that makes you feel like a regular even if it’s your first time through the door. It’s hands-down a better option than Denny’s or IHOP — better food, better service, and none of that “sad pancake at 2 a.m.” energy. It’s the kind of diner that actually feels alive. My only gripe? Pepsi products. I get it, contracts are contracts, but I’m a Coke person and this one hurts a little. Still, when the bacon’s this good and the coffee keeps coming, it’s hard to stay mad for long. Four stars. Swap Pepsi for Coke and we’d be talking five.”

“Always great food the best machaca burrito, I've had.”

“Lucia gave us excellent service, very attentive to our needs. Thank you Lucia”

“This subway is the best you will find, I worked there many years ago, I am not sure that Bob remembers me. But what I know is that they are very responsible in giving the best customer service and keeping the store clean.. 1993-1999 ??? I loved working there.”

“The banana bread pudding is phenomenal, but be prepared -- it's incredibly rich and the portions are massive. Since it's open 24/7 right by the airport, it's the perfect spot to grab a slice during a layover!”

“If you're considering having an ice cream station at your wedding or event, stop searching and book them. Seriously.
The ice cream was an absolute hit at our wedding. Throughout the night, guests kept coming back for more, talking about their favorite flavors, and raving about how fun and unexpected it was. There's something about a beautiful ice cream station that instantly brings out everyone's inner child, and Ice Cream Occasions delivered that experience.

They arrived knowing exactly what to do, where to set up, how to operate within the flow of the event, and how to serve guests efficiently. As an event professional myself, I notice when vendors require hand-holding versus when they can truly operate independently, and Ice Cream Occasions was the latter. Once they arrived, I had complete confidence that everything was handled.

To make things even more impressive, I booked them only a few days before my wedding. Despite the short timeline, their team was accommodating, responsive, and willing to customize toppings specifically for us. They never made us feel rushed or like our request was an inconvenience. Instead, they jumped in and helped make it happen.

The combination of incredible ice cream, execution and outstanding customer service made them one of the easiest and best vendor decisions we made.
To the entire Ice Cream Occasions team, thank you for bringing such a fun, memorable, and delicious experience to our wedding. You exceeded every expectation, and our guests are still talking about it. We would recommend you again and again without hesitation!!”

“Exceptional food! Hamachi collar, red snapper soup! And sushi. Authentic; which is why it was so good!”

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！”

“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~♡♡♡♡♡”

“Best tacos ACTUALLY! Family owned and very kind folks. Had 2 carne asada and 1 chicken tacos. The tortillas were fire and the meat sooo delicious. You also get to put your own toppings and they have guac as an option (not as an expensive add on). So yummy!”

“pasamos de pasadita guiados por los reviews y nos sorprendió los mejores tacos de birria qué hemos comido. recomendamos al 100 por 100”

“whipped feta app was incredible, it's been almost a week and I'm still thinking about how good it was! the drinks were all memorable as well. was super busy when we went but worth the wait. can't wait to go back for dinner!”

“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 recommend Botanica to everyone. They use fresh hand picked ingredients and the food is delicous! Their cocktails and desserts are so yum. I picked up some chile oil and pickled local veggies for gifts for my friends! Chef Zarah and the staff are best. Will definitely be returning soon.”

“Lovely people and food!!!”

“Relax atmosphere, awesome service and good food!”

“Atmosphere was great! Service was fabulous. Drinks were tasty! Margarita Pizza lacked cheese but the Sweet Cheeks was amazing 🤩.”

“Great service , great ambience, great margarita drinks overall, an awesome place with outdoor patio. Just beautiful.”

“Why go 3000 miles away it’s just as good as Pat steaks and they got a roast pork sandwich too”

“While looking for a new place to have dinner with friends, I stumbled upon Girl & the Goat. They had great online reviews, so we decided to give it a try. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the service was impeccable. The roasted oysters were so good that I even ordered a second helping.🥳🥳”

“totally surprised me. came in with no expectations and mariano treated us to a truly memorable lunch. cannot recommend this spot highly enough. for a guy who’s lived in the area for a long time, my only regret was not coming in sooner.”

“I highly recommend this restaurant. Great food and great service.”

“🥯 🥯 🥯 perfect chewiness where your masseter muscle gets a good workout but notsomuch where you start bagelmaxxing your face 🥯 🥯 🥯”

“This place is soooo EPIC!! So epic the cast of Parasite movie ate here after winning the #Oscars! Nackchi bokum was the best I ever ate but everything was authentic and delicious!! 🦑👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️”

“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.”

“Amazing Avocado roast poached egg Amazing staff manager follow up to make sure meal was perfect amazing ambiance great location natural light”

“We accidentally found this place, and it turned out to be such a wonderful surprise! The sea bass fillet was absolutely delicious—the fish itself was perfectly cooked, and the garnish complemented it beautifully, even though it included fried onions, which I normally wouldn’t expect to pair so well with fish.
I highly recommend this place from the bottom of my heart! ❤”

“get the Hash! and some pie”

“The food was very tasty, will be back next time”

“Bartender was feisty, had some malort, will return”

“Stopped by Be Bright Coffee and ordered a cortado made with their Colombia Paola Trujillo Wush Wush Natural. The coffee had tasting notes of blood orange, red currant, honeysuckle, and tart cherry juice, which made it a really interesting coffee to experience in a milk drink.

The cortado itself was very well executed. The milk had a smooth, creamy texture with strong integration, and the body remained cohesive throughout most of the drink. As I worked my way through it, the espresso and milk continued to hold together nicely without developing a thick or separated layer of foam. The tasting notes had good clarity and came through well in the milk. The latte art could have been a little cleaner and more defined, but that’s a minor presentation detail and didn’t take away from the quality of the drink.

My main technical feedback would be the temperature. It was served just slightly hotter than I think it should have been. The flavors were still clear from the beginning, but the difference became noticeable as the cortado cooled. The coffee really opened up, and those fruit-forward characteristics became even more expressive and enjoyable. Starting the drink at that slightly lower temperature would have made the experience feel more dialed in from the very first sip.

I gave Be Bright four stars, and part of that comes down to the $10 price of the cortado. At that price point, I think the expectations naturally move into a different category. When you’re paying $10 for a cortado featuring a coffee like this, I’m expecting the execution to be as close to perfect as possible. The slightly higher serving temperature, along with the minor presentation detail, was enough to keep this one from reaching that level for me.

The customer service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and the person working the register was especially nice and made the experience feel inviting. Overall, it was a very good cortado with quality coffee behind it, and I’d definitely return to try some of the other beans they offer.”

“amazinggggggly delicious and healthy :)”

“Excellent food and service. Thank you!”

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩”

“I loved so many things about the restaurant. Attentive middle-aged owner, price listed on the menu, wok sound coming from the kitchen. The only thing that can be improved/or you can ask for less sauce (sauce is quite on sweeter side).”

“I can’t remember the name of the gentleman who helped me this past Saturday but he was super accommodating to my many allergies and generally pleasant + sweet in spite of how busy it was. The food was also delicious. Looking forward to coming back here.”

“Great high quality food and service”

“Delightful experience, a perfect marriage between Japanese & Thaï cuisines. Counter top seating, tasting menu was fresh and enjoyable, price point in amazing too. The chefs very nice and engaging. Def recommend”

“The place is a little hidden, but once you find it, it’s totally worth it. Every dish we ordered was spectacular!

The Wagyu carpaccio practically melted in my mouth and was such a great way to start the meal. The uni mazemen was rich, deeply savory, and packed with flavor. We also loved the Wagyu katsu sando, which had the perfect balance of tender, juicy meat and fluffy bread. The hand rolls were incredibly fresh, and we ended the evening with a slice of cheesecake that was light yet indulgent.

The craft cocktails were just as impressive as the food. They feature creative Japanese-inspired flavors like matcha and fresh citrus, and the presentation was beautiful.

I also loved the decor and overall vibe. The atmosphere was intimate, and the music really added to the experience. Everything was reasonably priced, making this a great spot for a nice meal without feeling overly expensive or crowded. They also offer valet parking, but I ended up parking in a lot around the corner, which was super convenient.

Overall, such a great dining experience and definitely a spot I’d come back to!”

“I really want to give it five stars and I may come again in the future. The food is great, to be honest, the pork shoulder and mushroom rice is enough.”

“Our family had an excellent meal at Mother Wolf last night. The pasta was out of this world and the Italian wine selection was great. The decor is very nice and conducive to an overall excellent experience.”

“good place and highly recommend.”

“Bomb sushi!!!! Everything was wonderful, can’t say anything bad. Good rolls and gotta try the crispy rice for an appetizer😀”

“What an unforgettable dinner! Everything was flawless—a perfect 10 out of 10! The food was absolutely delicious, the hostess was incredibly warm and welcoming, and our server provided impeccable service all night long. The restaurant has such a charming, elegant ambiance, and every single detail was spot on. I already can’t wait to come back—highly recommended!I have to give a special shoutout to the lamb. I’m usually not a fan of lamb, but this was the first time I've ever had it cooked so perfectly, and it completely changed my perspective. The side dishes were rich, the drinks were amazing, and every single dish we tried was bursting with flavor”

“What a special treat. Visiting LA, and my daughter made a reservation for dinner. We did not have omakase bar seats, but had the dining room omakase. Absolutely fantastic. Service was excellent, attention to every detail. The omakase sushi dinner was maybe some of the best fish I’ve ever eaten.
I need the mention the house Martini, one of the most delicate martinis I can remember.
Good luck getting the recipe!!!
Next time we will make a reservation for the omakase at the Bar with Mori.”

“An impressive restaurant top to bottom. All aspects from staffing to aesthetic were finely tuned and complimented the food and experience perfectly. Uniquely comfortable while maintaining a high level of culinary excellence. Stands out even in LA's endless sea of wonderful choices. Very highly recommend.”

“The food is phenomenal!! Everything is amazing”

“This is a really cute spot in the area. Quiet yet charming. And the wait staff was very attentive and pleasant. I French Onion soup was not at all salty, but had a rather sweet, nutty flavor. Quite a lovely surprise.”

“One of the best sushi I’ve had in Southern California, small place not fancy at all but it is a recommended experience must try.”

“Delicious and great service”

“The best croissants and pastries you’ll ever have (vegan or not vegan) in Far East Plaza Chinatown, Los Angeles!!!”

“Villa's Tacos were amazing! and I'm not saying this just because of the hype of the Super Bowl. I'm saying this because I mean it. The tacos were just amazing to me. Not your regular everywhere tacos. These tacos were homemade recipes. I had the carne asada, pork with potato (puerco con papa) & beans with cactus (frijoles con nopal). It's a week later that I tried these tacos and I can't stop talking about them. My favorite was the beans with cactus. Soooo good. Also, the atmosphere was just so nice and lively. I truly enjoyed every minute of my visit here. Thank you Villa's Tacos, we will return.”

“Banh mi is really nice and only $7, takeout only but we took them to the beach. It’s also a mini market so we got some drinks. The guy serving was really nice and recommended no.1 and 3, the classic cold cuts and pork.”

“This was my first place. The sandwiches are ridiculously delicious. The focaccia bread for the sandwich is the best and the apricot tart was super delicious. Worth the stop.

I'll stop by next time I'm in the area.”

“Really nice coffee spot in LA, and easily my favorite now! Love the little dinosaur details, and the merch is fantastic. Had an iced mocha and it brought me so much joy. Also gave the staff my sticker and they put it on their machine, yay!”

“had the messy biscuit, the flores and a grilled cheese and they were all amazing!! the biscuit was soo good on its own but with the filling it tasted absolutely delicious, the flores was just as good! the rib meat and the sauces all combined to be such amazing flavors. the grilled cheese was yummy and cheesy too!”

“Best bakery...love their pastries.”

“They have very good pastries, bánh my and moon cake”

“I walked by IndiMex and happy I walked in! The food is mind-blowing good! I ordered chicken tandoori with their special sauce on the side. They normally use for the special sauce for their Chicken Masala. The secret sauce is like nothing Ive tried before. It's sweet with hints of savory, ten stars!”

“Great array of food options in a lively atmosphere”

“Open Market catered a wedding reception I was coordinating in October, and they were wonderful. Their restaurant is one of the bride's favorites, and they were great. The food is delicious, and I'm working on getting my husband over there soon. They couldn't have been more accommodating and flexible during the planning, and they were straight pros at the reception. As a planner, I love caterers that are easy to work with and easy for my couple's to work with, and it was a great experience for everyone.

Vegetarian options: Delicious!

Dietary restrictions: We didn't have a lot of them, but they did create delicious vegetarian meals for the guests who needed it.”

“Delicious …. Great food truck authenticity”

“The owners here have a lot to be proud of. It’s a phenomenal restaurant surrounded by a million great restaurants. I got the Azteca and Al pastor burritos with an horchata and all of it was absolutely incredible. Definitely lived up to the hype. I’d go all the time if it were closer.”

“5 rating Vegan Delicious Pizza!! Slices, full pies, caesar salad, garlic knots, all house-made ingredients. cashew-based cheese. loved it!! As of October 2022, opened for 8 mos.”

“Great service by Emmanuel. He has a great attitude and goes above to make sure your order is correct.”

“Hello: With my apology to the owner and staff of Darya Restaurant in Santa Monica I wrote a bad review about 12 days ago. It was my misunderstanding to write a bad review. In fact, It is a good restaurant (5 Star) with excellent, well made, good ambiance, and delicious food and a vast array of dishes on the menu. I must say that their portions are generous in comparison to prices. I ask people to give them a try at least once and see for themselves. I think they are going to be hooked. All branches are good and the Orange county branch has a great ambiance! Thank you Ms. Darya and your staff for your efforts. I will see you again, indeed. Wish you all the best to come! Homayoon Khorram”

“Tasty chicken wrap. Limited beer selection, but nice quiet location in the terminal to enjoy it. Excellent service.”

“OMG!!!!!!!!! Finally a place that serves real soul food. My rating on this place is a 10 out of 10 period. I am now dropping the mic”

“Overall, nice, and the live music was really good.”

“This place is absolutely amazing! I love their breakfast.”

“: “’Na pizza ’e lusso e ’na proprietà ’e lusso.””

“The food is always great, fresh, and different from usual Thai places plus the people who work there are friendly”

“Sandras has the Best Tamales in L.A. When ever I bring them to work everyone loves them, even my Mother in law who is from Mexico and Picky loves them. They are MOIST and the masa is TASTY even when left in the refrigerator for weeks and then taken out to steam, they are delicious!”

“You can't go wrong here at El Sabroso, quality food for a great price. I've been coming here for years. Buen Provecho Everyone!!”

“I think I've begun a personal relationship with the Spicy Beef Salad! The food is super delicious and the staff is quite nice and accommodating. Tom yumyum!!”

“This restaurant was recommended to us by our son and daughter in law. They know we have very high expectations when we go out to dine. We usually pick apart dining experiences and end up disappointed. (Could we have made this at home and could we have done it better.). This restaurant was a wonderful exception to the rule. The food was AMAZING. The fig and roasted beet starter was delicate and tasty. The ragu fettuccine was flavorful and perfectly seasoned. My husband's rib eye steak was melt in your mouth tender and grilled perfectly. We splurged and got two desserts, the chocolate mousse and the date pudding. Both were very good, though I preferred the date pudding with it's delicate caramel sauce. The service was excellent. (Kudos Lilia). The only down side was the noise level. There is sufficient space in the ceiling for sound dampening insulation. They should seriously consider installing some..”

“I am so happy to find such an exceptional Neapolitan-type pizza joint in Los Angeles—and only a couple of doors away from my office. I’ve been back 3 times now, and will be back again for sure! My Italian mama would have approved.”

“Very delicious food made with moroccan savoury taste. exeptional service. Keep up the good work:)”

“Delicious! Huge pupusas and best tastiest sauce ever!”

“An awesome experience for one of our last meals in Los Angeles. Randomly Found this restaurant near us and decided to try it. We weren't deceived. The service is perfect, margarita is delicious. The meals were spicy and tasty, as we love. Actually one of the best experiences we had in this city. Thank you so much!”

“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.”

“The food is fresh and has a unique flavor. The atmosphere is quiet, allowing for a comfortable dining experience. Service is prompt, and the staff are warm and attentive. Prices are also quite reasonable. All in all, this restaurant is highly satisfying and well worth a return visit.”

“Great food first time being there!”

“Great array of food options in a lively atmosphere”

“My favorite place wonderful food, desserts and coffee”

“Amazing food and service had an amazing time will be back soon”

“Food was amazing, spot on. Great comfortable service. Really nice experience!”

“Our waitress, Olivia, is the best server I’ve ever had and I’ve been to great restaurants all over the USA and Europe. She’s a treasure!!!”

“很差，炸到燶的雞翼。”

“Lucia gave us excellent service, very attentive to our needs. Thank you Lucia”

“I am so happy to find such an exceptional Neapolitan-type pizza joint in Los Angeles—and only a couple of doors away from my office. I’ve been back 3 times now, and will be back again for sure! My Italian mama would have approved.”

“This place has been on my list for a while now and I finally got to try it out last night! Ultimately, much ado!

Couldn’t get a reservation so showed up with a couple friends and waited at the bar for about 45 minutes for a table at 7:30 on Wednesday. So I would say be prepared to wait, as it seems like is a well-known thing (one reason I delayed trying it).

At the bar, we were able to get the Vandell martini which was super good and fresh and tasty. standing at the bar was kinda odd cause you’re kind of in a busy hallway of sorts. However, the bar is super beautiful and the art is really cool and all the glasses were very pretty stacked up; decor was awesome.

We got to the table and it was a very beautiful wooden booth and that’s kind of where I just felt like it wasn’t ultimately worth the wait. generally for a place like this I guess I just thought the service would be a little different or faster in terms of like cleaning dishes away or just being friendly but definitely wasn’t that kind of energy. oh and everything was just super loud. I don’t know what the deal is with the space, but it was just really hard to hear and was just a very high volume.

We got some more drinks which were all excellent including the old-fashioned and another martini and the vesper - the drinks were definitely the highlight. We got the fries, the crudo, a citrus salad and a pea hummus. and in terms of what was best it basically went in that order. The fries were super thin and crispy and excellent, and the crudo was very fresh and delicate. The citrus salad was good at first, but it got kind of soggy because it was just a lot of fruit in there and the pea hummus was something that if I made it at home, given the texture and flavor, I would think I messed up the recipe but still, it wasn’t super bad per se.

Altogether it was all fine and it would be fine to go there and eat and have some drinks but just the wait was pretty wild and then paired with the service in terms of bartenders and servers (dude at the front desk was super nice and helpful) and the lackluster nature of food served at many spots across LA, I just felt like it doesn’t add much to the landscape in terms of the revolutionary hype around it, and probably won’t go back unless a friend really wants to go.”

“We stopped by for cocktails after dinner on a Friday night and expected more of a party vibe from their Instagram, but it was actually relaxed and laid-back.

The cocktails were excellent, especially if you like sweet and sour flavors, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for a bar from the Thunderbolt team. We only had the hot dog, but it was delicious too. The bartender was genuinely kind and made us feel welcome.

The only surprise was that it’s tucked away in a strip mall, but don’t let that stop you. Definitely a spot I’d come back to for great cocktails.”

“me & my friend had a lovely evening here amazing food, amazing service everyone was so kind! <3 the wine tasted phenomenal as well, it’s a very cute and cozy atmosphere. i would definitely recommend coming here! and our server of the night was Marek ! (: thank you, for the wine and the recommendations as well. we will definitely be back. 8/29/26 🌟”

“thank you for an amazing lunch.! Much success in the New Year.”

“The desert selection is very limited. Other food was great though. At the end the waiter brought the check, and even though I was on a romantic date with a successful gentleman, he still managed to put check on my side of the table 😆”

“Bakery cookies don’t get any better than this! Honestly though, I was more blown away by Laraaya. Even in a 1 minute interaction with a customer, she makes you feel like best friends. She is bright, welcoming, and you can just tell she is living out her highest good. She makes a mean cookie too 😂.

I tried the chocolate chip, london fog, vanilla bean sugar cookie, and napolitaine petit trois. The first 3 are expertly done; they taste about how you would expect- like homemade cooke with perfect texture. I have never had anything like napolitaine on the other hand, idk how she did that but I was blown away.”

“Really good food worth of your money😊”

“ottimo posto ho portato degli amici ieri sera ed anche loro sono rimasti molto soddisfatti lo consiglio personale molto molto gentile disponibile e le schiacciate favolose riempite Bene e buonissime 🤩”

“Had dinner here and the sushi was a solid choice. I tried a few different rolls and liked the variety of ingredients and flavors. The menu was easy to choose from, the portions were reasonable, and the staff were helpful when ordering. The restaurant had a nice, casual vibe.”

“I love Momo Souls! I was so excited when they opened last year, and they have not disappointed. There momos are delicious and juicy, with veggie and dairy free options. The sauces for the momos are out of this world amazing. Innovative fusion and fantastically executed! Don't forget about their noodles too! Their Himalayan noodles are so delicious and very generous portions. So pleased their new business is doing well, and will continue to support them as well!”

“Fantastic experience. Chef Ki is an artist. It's difficult to find a dining experience that can zhuzh up humble Korean ingredients and not absolutely butcher them, but Chef Ki does exactly that. The main ingredient shines and every bite is stunning. The atmosphere is warm and intimate, the dishes speak for themselves, and the pairing was also superb. Can't wait to go back!”

“The food was extraordinary, pleasing combinations of ingredients prepared with great artistry, care and attention. The staff pleasant and accommodating though dressed in utilitarian garb of a state dinner in China. The oddity of fine dining accompanied by Tracy Chapman's Fast Car”, and other such musical anomalies. My wife and I enjoyed it throughly. A memorable anniversary so good, we skipped the movie.”

“Exceptional. Loved the attentive staff and the crunchy rice mushroom clay pot is to die for. Decor is amazing. Go there for your next date night. You’re welcome ☺”

“Marvin and the team were amazing, so was the food! Been there in January and it was great, saw they had a dine LA deal going with an updated menu, so here we go! Everything was amazing, delicious, good portion sizes and the team was highly accommodating! Definitely will be back soon!”
