“Always supporting our local community District 29 La Chuleta Fresca has the best quality in the San Fernando Valley! Highly recommended Jaime Tapia & Rosie Ortiz Tapia. 🥩🍗👍❤“

“Guido's Pizza is the best all-around. Whether it's the one in Sylmar on Polk and Glen Oaks or the one on Osborne and Glen Oaks. You can never go wrong. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted, and both places treat you with respect.Guido's Pizza was a big hit for my son's school. It was delivered on time for the school party they were having. I ordered two extra large peporoni pizza's and my son said that all the pizza's that were not from Guido's were never touched once.The kids were amazed with Guido's that even the parents asked me where I got the Pizza because they wanted to buy some for the holidays.Five stars to both Guidos Pizza.“

“bomb bomb bomb! wont be disappointed“

“I’ve been to Bacari a bunch of times, but brought a friend yesterday for her first visit and it was easily our best experience yet. Our server Sara was awesome—super attentive, a great listener, and just made the whole night special.
The food was totally on point. The crispy schnitzel and the shawarma tacos (perfect meat-to-slaw ratio) were highlights, and the Asian pear pizza 😋 was amazing. The only tiny thing was the pistachio sfoglia was a little bit overdressed with the sweet cream, but still good.
My friend loved her cocktails, and as a mocktail drinker, kudos to the bartender. The mocktail dirty martini (Salt n Solace) was PERFECT. The Botanica was good too, just a bit too sweet for me (next time I'll just ask to swap the tonic for club soda).
Bacari is always a great spot to hang out, but yesterday was exceptional. Thank you Sara for taking such good care of us!“

“Another great local institution in Burbank! The line gets a bit long, but worth the wait. Huge portions for the price you pay and they are generous with the sides.
The gelato they have is some of the best gelato I’ve had in the city as well!“

“Yummy always. Great service and food“

“Love Vitellos, feels like an awesome local secret, while being a classic la restaurant at the same time. Great food, amazing staff and fun night out. They always seem to find a way to connect to the neighborhood in new and interesting ways as well.“

It was a nice restaurant, very clean inside very nice looking and the waiter was very friendly and the bartender it was, well, they were all friendly, including the kitchen staff. I recommend everybody to come to this restaurant. Along with family and friends, very nice and very decent“

“We went to the coolest little Italian place in the valley for Valentine's on a total whim. The entire place was themed, they had a fun violinist, the wait staff wore Valentine's glasses & vests, they had pink and red lights on the palm trees out front, heart shaped straws... it was so quirky and fun. Service was awesome, like the staff was actually having a good time and glad we were there. The food was AWESOME quality... everything homemade down to the freshly baked heart shaped bread. I don't recall if we've ever really 'celebrated' Valentine's day but going to this restaurant made it feel like an actual holiday. So fun and cute. Also, the prices & portions! Highly recommend to check this place out. Guessing they probably do other holidays as well. Grateful for an unexpected awesome night 🥰🤗“

“Great tasting food and very friendly service. The owner Antonio is the best!!! Will definitely be back and highly recommend“

“This is the go to restaurant when staying in LA. Food is always perfect. Service is exceptional, and honestly made to feel like family. After an amazing meal Bruce and Rene treated us to the most exquisite desserts that were truely to die for. This was the dining highlight of our US trip from Scotland and the best genuine hospitality we've experienced. Well done to all involved, wish you weren't 5000 miles away from where we live. Can't wait to come back.“

“Their antipasto salad is fresh with a hefty serving of meats and cheese. Their Italian dressing seems like a secret recipe and their garlic bread is magical with the sesame seeds. I get one salad for dinner and one for lunch to take to work the next day.“

“Thomas was such a kind server ! He made sure to check on us constantly, had an amazing attitude and recommended a lot of good things. This was my first time here and i will definitely be coming back, good food, good vibes and good customer service :)“

“I’m big fan of wood fire Pizza. Finally a halal spot. MashaAllah pizza is amazing. I love the crust. And the pizzas are light, so we got a couple options for me and my family.“

“I recently moved to Sherman Oaks from NY and this is the best authentic pizzeria around, all the others that mention NY in their titles are Fugazy’s. Not an overwhelming menu which translates to fresh food being made on a daily basis. The sauce is outstanding and the crisp is perfect. Great owner as well..“

“.  We usually have a very good experience however there was something off this last time. It was towards the end of the evening and they were only a few people left at the restaurant, we had to ask the waitress for our bread four times which was unusual. Otherwise, we appreciated the quiet atmosphere, the very nice wine and high  quality, wine glasses and the good food. We were a little bit disappointed because at the end of the evening we noted we smelled cigarette smoke coming from the back of the restaurant we felt was quite unprofessional. This is the only time we have been at the restaurant. The owner wasn't there and our perception was that there was a step down in discipline among the staff that day“

“Today was the first time I ordered anything from here I have been wanting to for awhile and I just found my new favorite place to eat chicken Alfredo it was bomb and I’m picking when it come to Alfredo dishes,great portions too.“

“Thank you all very much see everybody soon My Respect God Bless you and your family the food was great ❤️🙏🏻🥋“

“Had the calamari, beef ravioli and bread pudding, it was very good.“

“Awesome dinner and dessert 🍨“

“There were 4 of us dining in for a late lunch/ early dinner. It's a very comfortable place with a great menu and awesome desserts. The owner works there and the staff is awesome and friendly. If you want to adjust your selection a bit they are happy to help in any way possible! The portions are good size to share. We love going there and the staff makes it cozy and welcoming. Thank you Antonio's for taking such good care of us and making our visit a wonderful experience. We look forward to our next visit soon!“

“I've been going here for 15 years. I also order out. I wanted to put a 4 stars.
Ok here's the deal. I get PERFECT meatballs each and every time.
ALMOST.
Sometimes the meatballs taste OFF. Once in 20 times.
I just tastes like they ground other parts into the meat stock which shouldn't be there. Like entrails or something.
And there no warning us patrons.
As if I couldn't tell.

Since I get 19 out of 20 perfect ground meatballs, its hard to complain. But I wanted to get that out there. I mean, WHO LIKES SURPRISES? You know?“

“Great spot. I’ve been a regular patron for many years …since they opened. Great service, friendly staff and they also offed outdoor dining ..nice and roomy patio ..

Recommend … fried artichoke and mozzarella as starters , chicken piccata, chicken parmigiana, and their lasagna …“

“We stumbled upon this restaurant earlier this summer & have already visited at least 5 times! Food is delicious & fresh, it’s a nice quiet place to enjoy a meal. I love out date nights here when craving pasta, the octupus as the appetizer is my favorite! Waitress is lovely & attentive, we will definitely continue to return.“

“We came here to wait for our hotel, Peter at the bar was wonderful. Great atmosphere, food, and staff!“

“Good food - great service“

“This has ALWAYS been thee place to get a Delicious Pizza, scrumptious Bread, and yummy Lasagna! After 60 years, it is still Simply the Best! Outstanding service provided by Ricci which made our dining experience wonderful! Everyone cares about the customer all the way to the top! Joan listens to the customers to make sure that the food is the BEST and it IS! You MUST go to Chi-Chi's when you're in Northridge!“

“It looks perfected, they are very generous with the amount of cheese and toppings. I look forward to seeing you again :)“

“Nice clean store and food was delicious. The girl at the front was so friendly and answered me questions about the menu. I ended up getting the lasagna garlic bread salad combo and it was so good and for less than $15! I ate the garlic bread first cuz it was so good that's why it's not in the picture LOL.“

“we were lucky to have our baby shower at casa de pizza and joel and eddie are amazing owners. i was getting overwhelmed looking for venues and catering our baby shower, and we were so grateful that casa de pizza were open to having us. from day one, eddie and joel were responsive and put together a really nice menu with a drink package that was EXTREMELY REASONABLE for pricing. the baby shower itself was fantastic - pizza was solid, the pitchers were flowing, and the antipasto salad, wings, and lasagna were delicious. joel was on the floor making sure everyone was taken care of, and i cannot tell you how nice it was to walk in, celebrate, and walk out without having to worry about a thing. they even offered to let come a little earlier to decorate which was a nice gesture.

i also wanted to mention that we live in the neighborhood and have been going to casa de pizza since before new ownership. i've felt that the pizza and pasta are still very good, so i am surprised to read that people aren't satisfied. they've made some very positive changes by opening orders up for online and pick up. if you OG customers remember, we'd all have to fight each other calling the phone line just to get an order in, and it'd take us a solid 20 minutes of hearing the busy tone before getting someone to take our order, wait an hour, then pick it up. change is scary because it's new, but i feel like eddie and joel honor the tradition and respect of what casa de pizza was meant to be - your neighborhood pizza parlor.

we look forward to celebrating future birthdays and events here - they made it so easy and effortless so that we could enjoy our day.“

“Delicious food, I enjoyed myself there and the spaghetti was great just like expected 🧡“

“I've been, "one of the longest" fan's or person tasting the "Miceli's Italian ⁷Restaurants Food for the past 60 yrs now because I got hooked on it when I was 3yrs old. So 63 yrs old and I'm 63 yrs old. It happens to be the best I've ever had and I've been around the world and I have sampled Italian food everywhere a round the United States and in Europe but something about Miceli's food I grew up eating there "Food" is because all those recipes came from my family. See I am the great nephew of " The late founder of Miceli's, "Mr. Carmen Miceli" my "Great Uncle" and my "Great Aunt " Millie and of course My Grandmother "Angie" are siblings along with there two brothers my Great Uncle's Tony(Anthony) and Sam, with there parents and let's not forget my Great Uncle "Rocky" came to a Southern California in the late1940's after the (World War Two) and (Korean Wars) and were coming to California to open a restaurant. You guessed it Miceli's in 1949 and "My MOM" was only 9 yrs old they indeed open the Restaurant in Hollywood,California. then some years later"I" became "a" Hot Idem in which I was born so make a long story short we used to eat all and I mean, all the time there and have family functions there and I and my sisters and other cousins would go and ŵork [helped] out and learned how to cook and learned now to prep the food at the famous " Kitchen"across from the world famous Hanna Barbera cartoon studio's and just across the Hollywood frwy and just down the hill from the "City walk" by the Sherton Hotel at the Universal Studio's but it was the "Commissary" for the 4 other restaurant's in the Hollywood, and surrounding areas. So us kids learned how to cook from the best. So Memory Lane tells a tall story. Not only because it's my Family Owned Restaurant, but many critics have Eaton there and posted "Great reviews" but over the years, there has been tens of thousands of customers who have Eaton there and they to have there own versions and great story's about there fine visited to one or so restaurants in the Los Angeles area year after year and again while visiting the L.A. area on yearly business. Thank you Miceli's for serving me Cousin Perry and all the other customers who have stopped by to eat and enjoy the show of Professional Opeŕa singers waiting to go to a show somewhere around the world on tour to perform on "Broadway" or a "Opera house" then they come home to Miceli's to wait for there next gig or show, but for the last70 plus year we the people or customers or even us "The Family" Thank you from the bottom of our heart's thanks for the Memorie's and Great times. Sincerely, your cousin Big Perry and "Die hardcustomers“
