“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.“
“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.“
“Where do I start with how much I love this place? As a photographer it's a joy and a delight to be here but even without the fact that I've worked there many times... The food the decor, the staff.. if you get a chance to meet Eden Alpert you're lucky. Always kind.... And you'll notice that she's probably having the best time of anyone. The music and the performers are top-notch. It's not uncommon to see some of the top names in jazz.. however don't be surprised if you see Seth MacFarlane doing songs from Sinatra or an Amy Winehouse tribute. Sound mix is even and the perfect volume. Highly recommend the Caesar salad with a plate sized parmesan crisp and the mini ahi tuna tacos and save room for the hot chocolate cake. Food is top of the line and jazz club is elegant and upscale. Can't wait to eat and shoot pics there again soon.“
“The food was excellent. The service was very spotty; we got a very sparse serving of bread with no butter or olive oil until we had to ask for it! When we wanted more bread it took 20 minutes to get it. The place is very noisy and hard to hear people next to you. Also, they do not take cash, which was not mentioned until we got our bill. 0j“
“Most excellent experience and food was perfect. We had the duck eggrolls and the ricotta stuffed squash blossoms as starters, both had a delish specialty drink. I had the house burger with 3 different meats ground in including wagyu. Was done perfectly med rare. No room for dessert this time. Will def go back. Service was nice, we sat at the bar. All in all a great experience.“
“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.“
“3rd visit - Obsessed! Innovate cuisine and meticulous cocktails at the level everywhere else wishes they could. Negroni - All time fav because the bitter punches hard (sometimes too hard). This is the best I've had! Bitter and sweet balance exquisitely - not brusque. Crispy Potatos - Well done, but makes you wonder if size is right. Close to being a french fry - but large! Crispy outside, soft inside, well seasoned. Mildly curious aioli pair well. Not perfect. Maybe needs another sauce? Seared Hokkaido Scallops - Scared green curry would overpower delicate scallops, but texture remains in tact. Curry pulls out creaminess. Delicate, but flavorful. Warm and clean. Scallion paratha is so necessary to give heavy depth! Cheesecake - Yooo!! Creme Brule is my fav and this is rivaling it! Bright and tart while velvety with deep. Not heavy! You'll regret not getting. Martini - A must every visit! I love olives, but tried lemon this time and loved how big of a difference it made! Excited to try gibson/onion next!“
“Went here after we were referred by a friend and it was well worth it! Food was so good. Our waitress Sarah was very friendly and even recommended great food choices. The pork belly was amazing, crispy Brussels are amazing and the crispy rice spicy salmon ?“
“Pretty good! I would go back to share with my other crew. Your fresh pasta dishes are good! The lobster pappardelle is really good! I want an order to myself! haha. Your mushroom fungi trecce is good. I don't like creamy sauce but this one is good. Hard to find a good bolognese pasta, but this one is good. The hamachi is good, nice tempura element. Lobster roll is excellent!! The family loves the lamb chops!! I am not a dessert person but your sticky toffee pudding is good!!“
“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.“
“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!“
“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!“
“First time going. Went for a late lunch. Staff was very friendly & the food came out fast. This has an elevated or more modern vibe compared to other "traditional" Mexican restaurants with familiar menu items (tacos, chips&guac, street corn) but several premium items (tomahawk steak, lobster bomba rice) or unique options (jimca salad, shrimp chile) as well. I like the small plates and tacos but also appreciate the large plates for dinner. They also have mocktails which are fantastic- we had spicy passionfruit. Wel will ne neck amd the atmosphere is lively from watching sports to a date night.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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“
“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.“
“Obsessed with the vibe of this place! It is relatively new and feels that way for sure. The lighting is moody and aesthetic and the whole dining layout is visually interesting. I like how there are also tables of all sizes to accommodate various parties. If you have been to Granville in Burbank which is nice already, this location feels classier and fancier.The food (especially the artisan bread and butter) is delicious. I appreciated how easily customizable the meals were. I swapped brussel sprouts with my steak for a salad and my friend swapped one of her sides as well with no grief.They also have a nice happy hour menu, not a lot of variety there but reasonable price cuts. I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the service was a little slow but everyone was friendly and helpful. It isn’t a huge restaurant because although it is two stories, the second floor has a huge opening to enjoy the alcohol/light feature. My party made a reservation and it worked out great. We got there early and got drinks at the bar until our table was ready and easily relocated.If you want to go out to a fun and tasty spot, I recommend this place!Parking: Valet is $8 - otherwise you have to look for street parking and hope for the best.“
“Our server Patty was upbeat! Rock vibe-fun spot with Mexican decor. They offer $5 happy hour beers 3-5 pm. Had the mole chicken enchiladas. So tasty! I could tell the chef really makes an effort. That matters to me a lot these days. Because so many don’t! Give it a try!Parking: Was a weekday dinner meal. Not crowded and right off the 5 fwy exit in Sunland.“
“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!“
“AH-MAZING!The food and drinks and atmosphere are all stellar! The servers are kind and on it! Shout out to Anton and Josh who provided me and my wife with the most amazing experience. Don’t walk! RUN to this place. You will want to come again and again!“
“Solid American Restaurant serving up good burgers and drinks!They have a solid tap list for beer!House chips are crunchy and addicting.Their fries are crispy and solid with the aioli sauce!Burgers are supposedly American wagyu! It was a nice melt in your mouth patty. The toppings are something serious. Amazing bacon, pretty good mushrooms, delicious camerlized onions. It tasted even better in the toaster oven the next day.Service was good, they were busy waiting many tables. Donavan was helpful and attentive.Nice interior decoration. Good feelingI would come back again for the burger and beer!“
“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.“
“A great atmosphere, I enjoyed the games on TV, it was Tequila Tuesday which was just fine by me, and the food was delicious! Absolutely a great time, I'm really glad that I went there for dinner. The server was fast, kind, and explained the menu to me. They only have Teramasu and 2 scoops of ice cream with liquor, not much of a desert place, but there was a lot around for sweets. Overall, I will definitely be coming back here with more people. On the left was the Blue Cheese Burger, and on the right was the Pastrami Jalapeño Burger. Their Chipotle Mayo was smokey to the taste, which was excellent.“
“Great spot to go with friends for lunch or to take the kids on the weekend. They have a great front patio and full bar, a back room with TVs and games for kids and a back patio that's more private. I've never hosted an event here, but seems like a great spot for a birthday party with friends on a Saturday or Sunday - Margs and tacos and lots of space for socializing. Also very kid friendly! They have a great kids menu with options for picky eaters, frozen lemonade etc. Recommend the mexi cali taco and the Philly cheese steak! So good!“
“Love the trivia night on Tuesdays! It starts at 8pm but make sure to arrive early or it’s unlikely to get your group seated.I also appreciate the “order your own” QR code ordering system. Drinks and food come up fast and easy to pay for yourself.Parking is easy since it’s located in a big plaza.“
“The food here is unmatched. The best tacos and salsa around by far. The service? Not super amazing, but it made for a more intentional dining experience, and I don't mind that. Truly though, the steak tacos set a new bar for me. Amazing work in the kitchen. Great cocktails too!“

“We had our son’s wedding rehearsal dinner here last week and it was truly wonderful. The food was fantastic, brilliantly served, more than ample. The atmosphere was gorgeous, filled with flowers not billed to us. Marietta, the co-owner, was totally easy to work with, more than fullfilled our expectations. I enthusiastically recommend this restaurant for a superb dinner, lunch, or special event.5 stars all around.“
“I recently moved to the area and this was our first time at The Proper Restaurant but it most certainly won't be our last. Everything ... and I mean everything was excellent! I started out with the Proper Clover Club cocktail and it was so refreshing and delicious. My husband and I then shared the white chicken chili which was equally delicious. For our entrees, my husband ordered the miso salmon which was out of this world and I got the chicken piccata. The chicken was cooked perfectly, lightly breaded and the pasta was tossed in a wonderful lemonny piccata. I also had a Malbec which was so smooth, I wanted to order the whole bottle (but alas, I did not). And since everything else was so good, we couldn't leave without ordering dessert -- the warm butter toffee cake. My mouth is still watering thinking about it. I can't wait to go back to The Proper Restaurant!“
“Sofi Daniela and Helsy are excellent and very friendly, they respectfully serve each of their clients. I recommend coming to this place after a long day of work to relax and have a chat with the girls…Sincerely from your friends at Kalaveras.! ????“
“Super delicious Omakase experience! I'd definitely like to go back on a week night for a few rolls. We did a double date here the other night and there was a mixup with our order and we waited a long time but they made it right. I definitely recommend the Omakase experience! My favorite was the nigiri and sashimi. Super fresh and all the details on top of the fish were delicious. Creamy caviar at one point ! This place is in a busy area, so parking is hard, get there early! I appreciate the upscale vibe in the midst of a lot of restaurants, its stands apart!“
“Listen. I've been going here a long time. You could call me a fan boy. None of that matters, though. Are you a nerd? Everything about this place is nerdy, in the truest sense of the word. Enjoy eats made by a chef who is nerdy about food. Drink cocktails and beer curated by people who are nerdy about alcohol. Do you like board games and e-sports? Are you sick of pop culture savvy places wearing "nerdiness" as a costume or prop without understanding what makes us nerds tick? Come to Guildhall. These are your people. This is home.“
“5 stars for the enchanting old-school atmosphere of this cozy establishment. 5 stars for beautifully made cocktails by skilled bartenders. 5 stars for friendly service and knowledgeable servers. The sole reason I'm deducting a star is for the total lack of non-meat dinner options. I made an exception and had a salmon caesar salad that was very delicious, but I so wish they'd throw a vegetarian a proverbial bone. It certainly won't stop me from coming back for a classy drink, but it would make it a hell of a lot easier for me to stick around after I've finished it.“
“Fancy Free! There simple dialed in menu at the bar makes selections easy and clean. Love the aesthetics of the place, it definitely carried in to our mixed drinks. We went with the Pink Flamingo paired with El Tequileno. Great service, great drinks. It's a once stop shop for quality drinks. The block ice and the garnish were the final touches on the drink. It's a bit pricy, but you get what you pay for. I think the end user experience is worth it. I'm no mixologist but I felt like one when making it. I would definitely come back again to try another combo package. They also have a nice selection of craft drinks in the refrigerator.“
“Loved the delicious cheeseburger, hot crispy sandwich, and calamari. Can't go wrong with these! The service was so so. It took 2 servers to make us happy if that tells you something... refilling water and getting side items in a timely matter.“
“Only went for drinks the few times I've been there, so I can't rate the food. The drinks I've had have been very good. The bartenders have been very personable. I was talking with one (his name was Angel) about how I dislike Manhattan's. He made me one and I really liked it. I was very impressed.I was also there for a Makers Mark tasting. Oak & Vine has 2 Private Selections. Both are very good, but personally, the second one they made was the better of the two. If you like bourbon give them a try.“
“I saw some comments about “not great food” and absolutely disagree with them! Among great cocktails and lots of draft beer variations they have very delicious food - we got artichoke deep and blue cheese burger - all was super delicious! They have a patio too for big crowds. Will come back for sure!“
“Stopped here on a Saturday afternoon, sometime between lunch & dinner. Seated right away. Service was friendly but definitely slow. Also, their menus reflect cash prices so if you pay with a card they charge you more. Just pay your employees a livable wage???? Had the half lemon herb chicken - huge portion. The sides that came with the dish were wonderful, chicken was flavorful but also a bit difficult to eat. Inside & outside seating available, restroom was clean. There were quite a bit of flies hanging around inside the dining room. With all my complaints, the food was solid.“
“Was highly recommended for me to come here from a close friend and definitely lived up to the praise she gave. The service was amazing and food was great. Our server and barkeep was Scott and he was wonderful and made the experience there so much better. The ambiance was great too, I love quiet and intimate spaces where you can truly focus on whomever your with without have to speak over loud music or heavy chatter. Lighting really elevated the feel as well. Price wise, itd be considered pricier than normal but I do think it's worth it. Will definitely be coming back.“
“We had so much fun we haven’t been there in a while we had amazing appetizer eggplant salad, and baked feta cheeseI also had Greek martini so delicious and blueThanks we’re definitely coming back thanks for the music thanks for the food thanks for the atmosphereVegetarian options: So many amazing and vegan vegetable and salad“

“After Universal Studios we wanted to eat some tacos. We found this place. It was late and we where a group of 10. There was no room indoors since there's only booths inside so we sat outside in the patio area. The waitress was quick on bringing the outdoor heater to warm us up. We ordered tacos and a cup with corn on the cob. The food was authentic and tasted like it should :)“
“My wife and I and our 2 adult children made a pilgrimage here a couple weekends ago. I wasn't even aware of it until recently, even though I had worked nearby in years past. The atmosphere is excellent, just what you'd hope for in a vintage lounge. The service was quick, although we were there in the afternoon, so it wasn't packed. The Painkillers were everyone's favorite. I started out with a Mai Tai, which was tasty. I would give the Mai Tai at Ventiki a slight edge, but that's just a quibble. Tonga Hut's prices are better though. We'll be back!“
“Cute little bar, with some amazing service. The bartender was on his own and managed to keep about 50 people taken care of, at all times. There's no food but there's a few places to eat close by. Highly recommend this bar, for a friendly gathering.“
“We came for my mothers birthday and had the best time. Andreas and the crew are genuinely great human beings. Great singing, music, hospitality, service. Love this place and I’d recommend this place to everyone who enjoys live music, great food and great service.“
“One thing I love about Granville is the intimate setting. It is definitely upscale and welcoming. It was packed when I got there. But that did not take away from the great service I received. Omar & Jennifer were amazing. I ordered the sautéed spinach and spicy shrimp pasta. It was pretty good. I like the corn and mushrooms in it. It is not necessarily something I just have to have again, but not bad at all. I like things quite spicy lol. Omar gave me extra sriracha and chili flakes. But it could still have been a bit spicier…just my personal preference. All in all…great experience and great food. Parking is plentiful here, whether you park in a garage or just find a spot in downtown Burbank.“
“We are out of town staying at a hotel near by and walked past this beautiful restaurant. It was a nice night so we sat outside under the fire lamps and it was absolutely beautiful.We were sat right away and a waitress came to us in a timely manner.I ordered the Cheesesteak Egg Rolls and they were delicious like a deconstructed cheesesteak sandwich served with a hot mustard, a chili sauce and I got a side of ranch. They were so delicious.My wife got a Cesar salad with salmon which was also very good and my son ordered a Hickory BBQ burger, his specific words were “wow” that’s a really good burger. I also ordered the watermelon lime seltzer and it was absolutely delicious. If you are in the area give this place a chance you won’t be disappointed.Parking: There is street parking but it seems to always be crowded and then there are parking garage.“
“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.“
