There was no check-in during the meal, despite our wish for banchan refills, water, and an additional beer.

But I tried their tuna sandwich for the first time last night and just.... Wow. Hands down the best tuna sandwich I've ever had, which is saying something since I was already a huge fan of the basic tuna sandwich. The egg, cucumbers, and dill dressing blend beautifully together and bring out the tuna's flavor perfectly. The bread is exactly what you'd want on it too, sliced + toasted with just the right amount of butter. You can tell the chef behind their recipe was out to make the best tuna sandwich and you can taste the love behind it. So worth the 16 bucks! (And it comes with a side)Never have had a bad drink here. Their wine is great, but I get tipsy from wine easily and I'm often the designated driver, so I usually go with their pear cider Stem (and it's so good).As for desserts, I've tried their tiramisu some time back and wasn't a fan. Might've just been a bad night cause it just was on the bland and dry side. But they've since added cannolis, which are very good! I love their affogato as well.Price wise, it's about typical as any date night place in LA. Pastas are around 20 dollars, with it costing more to add protein. Apps remain around 10-15 depending on what you get. But you are paying for quality and won't be disappointed.Parking can be tricky.

Maybe I should have gotten more...2. PAPAS BRAVAS: The potatoes were whole and super delicious. Really soft inside and flavor wise it hit the spot. I've found that you can never really go wrong with ordering Papas Bravas.3. PESCADO ZARANDEADO: The whole fish was yummy and came with 2 sauces. In my opinion, the sauces are a must! For both the entrees (this and the Cochinita Pibil) they come with tortillas so you can make your own taco. I thought this part of the experience elevated the food and allows you to adjust the dish to your own liking. I didn't like the whole fish as much as the Cochinita Pibil in terms of flavor. As far as whole fish goes, the sauces are what made this dish unique, but I preferred Zinqué's and Bavel's whole fish better.4. COCHINITA PIBIL: This was a flavor explosion! The meat was so tender it just fell apart and honestly it didn't need anything else - it was perfect with the pickled vegetables all rolled up in a tortilla. The highlight of the night.5. CHURROS: The churros were just okay; I wasn't in love with them in the same way as the Cochinita Pibil.SERVICE (5/5):Service was good!AMBIENCE (5/5):Beautiful atmosphere, perfect for date night or if you just want to have a nice night out.

Our ceviche was pretty much all small pieces of mango. We maybe had 10 small cubes of fish. For 24 dollars I would definitely pass. Small drinks at 20 bucks a piece...I know it's Hollywood but it's pretty steep. The panna cotta was supposed to be tres leches inspired but it literally just tasted like yogurt. Like a lot of reviewers said, you are paying for the ambience. It is pretty, however our table was a little weird the way one of us was sitting really high up and the other very low across the table. Check your bill too, because they had charged us a six dollar ""champagne greet"" which maybe was supposed to be for our anniversary, but I guess the server forgot. Then they also add 5 percent for employee healthcare charge...just a heads up. We won't return, but it was fun to try out.

The system works like at the bar where you have an open tab and when you're done ordering, you can close it and pay directly through the phone. If you aren't as technologically savvy, the staff is friendly and accommodating too!I booked a reservation for my girlfriend and me for a cute little anniversary dinner on a Sunday and the vibes were on point from the get-go. Our waitress greeted and congratulated us on our anniversary. She was very thorough when it came to describing how to use the ordering system and any recommended dishes. All of the staff were very lively, accommodating, and really friendly to the point where I felt like I was revisiting some old friends again.For the food, we ordered fried olives, crispy chicken, mushroom pate, housemade focaccia, and mushroom soy sausage pizza.-Fried Olives is really good and what everyone says about it is true. I am not a person who enjoys olives but this was a positive flavor surprise. GET IT!- Crispy Chicken is fried mushrooms and the seasoning gives them a similar nostalgia to eating KFC popcorn fried chicken. I loved it, especially with the pickled onions on the side and the dipping sauce it came with.- The mushroom soy sausage pizza was great, especially with the vegan, melty cheese topped with arugula for a peppery finish. We initially weren't able to order pizza since the waitress notified us there were some complications with the dough, thus pizzas were not available to order via the online ordering system. However, the problem seemed to be resolved and the waitress told us that the pizza may look a bit smaller due to the dough, but still the same portion used daily.-Lastly, we were surprised at the end with a complimentary olive oil cake with a dark, cherry sauce and topped with vanilla ice cream. The cake was subtly sweet, not dry, and tasted bright combined with the cherry and ice cream.Overall, we came as guests and left as family members. Everyone there was so nice and attentive. There was especially one of the waitresses who also checked up on us multiple times at the end, got to know us through some small talk, and brought good vibes in an endearing auntie way.

I feel like the idea of the complementary bread is wonderful but the bread itself isn't great. What is great is if your dining pal is ordering something with pink sauce... and then you can save the bread for the pink sauce but other than that, the bread is a big MEH and could totally step it up.Our waiter was from Italy - we thought this was wonderful! However... he interrupted my wife a few times and was actually kind of rude to her. Wasn't the coolest thing I experienced... he was attentive to our party but the rudeness was a little off-putting.The prices for the dish are very high considering the portions are on the smaller side. I had the salmon... it was cooked perfect but I felt like when I read the menu I was receiving something on the side vs just a tomato salad. For some reason, I interpreted this as a salmon with a tomato salad and a spinach salad. Turns out there were pieces of the spinach on top of the salmon - but it wasn't phrased as a sauce/or that it would be a salmon flavor addition.As I looked around, it seemed everyone's portion was small... which is fine (I suppose even more fine for fine dining) but for the prices, it just didn't seem worth it. I think my wife had like 20 small gnocchi's... my pal had 5 ravioli's and the lasagna was just TOO CHEESY.It was a bit warm inside the restaurant - and they have these lamps on the tables instead of lighting the restaurant with the restaurant's lighting. I feel like the lamps got in the way and some tables had cool lighting... some had warm lighting... it was an odd touch.Bathrooms need an update - the decor looks very out of place and there was a Christmas decoration. Why? No clue.I enjoyed the food - the tastes were delicious but for overall experience I am really a 3 star teetering a 4 star. We were all hungry after! And for a salmon for $38, I really didn't anticipate being hungry after but I am glad to have found a new restaurant... that is always the highlight.","5732 Melrose Ave Los Angeles, CA 90038",4.0,1916,"Italian, Wine Bars",$$ +17,2023-08-14,2023-09-17,Osteria Mamma,"This is hands down one of the best Italian restaurants in Los Angeles. I have been dining here for 15 years now. The decor is simple and understated with generational photos of the family that run the restaurant. Ask your server to point out who is who and hear the history of this incredible, hard working family. Chances are the young ones in the photos have grown up and taken a role in the operation of this family gem.On to the food...The menu has grown over the years adding dishes that are a bit more contemporary while also keeping the original items too. For starters they recently added an Arancini dish loaded with saffron infused arborio rice and short rib. It is super crispy on the outside and beautifully decadent on the inside. The dish is accompanied by three incredible sauces to soak up. Additionally I have always loved their Frittura Mista and the Polipozzo to start with. The salads are beautiful and fresh and delicious.The Pasta is on another level here. All of these dishes will make you feel like the namesake Momma still prepares them herself, may she RIP. My favorite is the Tonnarelli alla Carbonara, the sauce is thick and creamy yet delicate and the guanciale is cooked to a crispness that just makes it pop in your mouth. Another favorite is the Bigolo all'Amatriciana, the pasta is thick and filled with a beautiful texture and the guanciale is mouth watering in the san marzano tomatoes it is cooked down with.For mains we have always enjoyed the Bisteconna and the Il Branza, both of which always come out perfectly cooked and leaving us wanting more, which is hard because these dishes are large and worth sharing.Now I am no wine aficionado, however the wine menu is incredible. They feature mainly Italian wines with a BOOK that gives the region the grapes were grown and define's each areas practices and tastes. It's a history lesson of wine really. Do not let this intimidate you. The servers know each wine almost by heart and can tell you, based on your likes or dislikes, which will best suit you. They are currently offering a $20 wine flight that is unbeatable. Do not pass on it!I truly love this place so much and am so happy this family has kept their Momma's traditions alive.

More parties were seated in this dining room section and the noise definitely picked up, it was hard to hear yourself talk.Honestly, I was ready to give this restaurant 1 star and leave before ordering our food. We waited almost 25 minutes for someone to take our order. We watched 4 parties who came after us get their orders taken AND we watched them get their drinks and food delivered to their table. Not sure if they were under staffed tonight, but this was very frustrating since we had to make our showtime for the Pantages and I was worried if our food would come out in time. We made eye contact with two staff who would circle around the dining room, but they seemingly were just in charge of refilling water.My husband talked me down and finally, our waiter approached our table. My husband politely informed him that we have been waiting for a while to place our order and would have to leave soon to catch our show. Our waiter kindly apologized and he did do his best to remedy the situation.As soon as we put in our orders, I got up to use the bathroom and by the time I got back, all the food was already there on our table. They even gave us an extra complimentary dish of meatballs. This gesture and the swiftness of getting our food quickly to us was very much appreciated.We ordered:- Braised chicken meatballs 5/5: juicy, tender meat and strong flavor with creamy truffle sauce- Classic Thick Cut Filet 4.5/5: the steak on its own was very flavorful and came out perfectly medium rare, sauces were just okay- Baguette with garlic chive butter 3.75/5: bread was warm and soft with a crunchy crust; butter was creamy and easy to spread, but the taste kind of reminded me of AMC popcorn butter which isn't a bad thing- Mac and cheese with shrimp and lobster 2/5: Al dente pasta, saucy had a nice creamy consistency but there was absolutely no flavor to it; the only flavor came from the lobsterWe also ordered drinks. The Beauty Elixir was just okay, it tasted just like a glass of champagne but with a frothy consistency from the strawberry and cucumber pulp yet no hint of the fruits' flavor. My husband liked his drink though the Spicy Crush.Overall, I strongly give this restaurant 3 stars. The food borders between decent and good. I don't think it's worth its very expensive price point to warrant a second visit. Our server was kind and tried his best to make up for our situation. I just really wish the restaurant would have a better system of attending to guests once they are seated in the order they arrive.","1615 Cahuenga Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90028",4.2,1627,"Lounges, American (New)",$$$ +18,2023-09-07,2023-09-17,Beauty & Essex,"We had visited the bar and lounge of this beautiful restaurant in Hollywood before. I really liked the strong and tasty cocktails. Of course the cocktail prices have increased drastically after pandemic. Champagne prices were not bad to my surprise. They offer impressive gluten free and vegan menus. We really liked the eclectic dishes with an Asian fusion twist.The patio seating was very relaxing and spacious with beautiful potted plants. It was jazz Sunday but the entire restaurant was kind of empty. They didn't even need to open the upstairs dining area. For food we decided on fresh oysters, Thai shrimp, Branzino, filet mignon and broccolini. The food tasted fantastic and so flavorful. The portions were on the bigger side. We loved the dessert wheel in the end and it was fun to try them all. Our drinks were very well made and tasty too. We really enjoyed our dinner with jazz music in the background. It was a lovely evening for hubby and I.

Something felt like it was missing though, nevertheless I ate all of it. If you are celebrating a birthday or an occasion and looking to have fun while sipping cocktails and want to share some bites with your friends and/or family you'll have fun here.

His hospitality alone is an 11/10. We ended up ordering a beef plate and a shrimp plate. We were also given a SPAM musubi and our drinks on the house as it was our first time! It wasn't busy when we came in the late afternoon so we waited roughly 10 minutes for our food. When our food got called out and we unpacked it at our table, we were speechless it all looked so amazing. Not only did it look amazing, it tasted so incredibly wonderful. The shrimp on my palate were nearly as big as my fist and were bursting with flavor. The beef on my partners plate was so tender and flavorful as well! Also, the greens come so well seasoned and the purple rice is perfectly cooked! I would certainly re-order both plates! The complimentary SPAM musubi was also so grand; I will definitely add it to my next order! Overall, if you are in the DTLA area, I highly recommend Broken Mouth.

We ordered the Hamachi Crudo, the scallops, and the stuffed chicken wings. The Hamachi crudo was super fresh and the quality of the fish was amazing. The stuffed chicken wings were also pretty good, but I think the next time I come here I'll try something different. On the other hand, the SCALLOPS, were delicious.

The browning seemed to stand out more here. The morsels were tender and perfectly cooked-I could almost feel the collagen plumping up my skin. The spicy jokbal was a new dish for us. I've had the non spicy kind. We ordered the medium spice level, and it was spicy, but not so spicy that it took away from the taste. The sweetness of the sauce helped cut the spice. There will be some bone in this one for those who have never tried this dish. The Gamja tang was just so-so to my taste buds. One person in my party said he really enjoyed the broth as he felt it had a different depth to it than the others he has had before at different restaurants.

First off, it's difficult to find this place. I think I walked around the block three times. It's tucked within an alleyway and there's an elevator that takes you to the restaurant. It's beautifully decorated in every way. You can tell they really put effort and thought into the design and little touches. Everything from the furniture to the tableware to the glasses, to the lamps on the tables, it's so well executed and stylish. Very photo-worthy. Lots of seating inside and there's an outdoor section as well where you get a decent view of Hollywood.My friend and I each ordered an aperol spritz, a classic.Toasted Walnut Muhummara: This dip was so comforting and delicious. A nice way to start off the meal. A savory dip served with freshly warm pita bread. Best eaten fresh, once the pita gets cold it gets tough.Shittake Mushroom Larb: This is so fun to look at, and so fun to eat. There's a crunchy rice sheet over each lettuce wrap, each one is filled with mushrooms and tofu. Great combination of flavors and textures as there's some lime in it too. This is a must get and it's great for sharing. It gets a little messy, there will be some drippage on your hands, but it's worth it.Seven-Vegetable Cous Cous: A stunning dish. A bowl with the vegetable medley comes along with a side bowl of cous cous. This was good but my least favorite out of what we ordered.Pacifico Striped Bass: This is a dish that will make you say ""wow"" when you eat it. It's served in a coconut broth and there are scallop pieces included too. The fish was cooked perfectly and the flavors were wonderful.My friend and I ordered some dessert to finish off the meal...Soft Serve Sundae: This is a dairy-free soft serve ice cream with cubes of matcha cake and it's topped with goji berries and bee pollen.

I was taken aback not what she said but how she said it. I suggest to hire a person who knows how to speak to the public as first impressions kind of matter, especially in a fine dining establishment like this one. ‍ we were exactly 15 minutes late.

Host was friendly when we entered and upon telling her we had reservations she told us it was open seating and to sit wherever we like. They don't have standard tables, it is a ""lounge concept"" (their words not mine) with one long communal table in the middle and then a bunch of small round tables along each side of the walls. What was strange was as we were waiting for our order I saw the servers putting out 'reserve' signs and arranging tables - did our reservation not fall under that category?Interior is cute, very instagrammable. Dinnerware seemed very cheap. This place hasn't even been open for very long and the paint coating on the silverware was already 80% chipped off, which also made it look dirty. Glassware was sticky.We were excited to try all the food so here's what we ordered:Green Tangerine Ade (-10/10): No flavor. Glass it was served in was extremely sticky all around the outside.Truffle Fries (-10/10): the most generic brand of frozen fries. Pale, soggy, limp - not crispy at all. Fried in a gang of oil and then tossed lightly in some truffle oil. No aioli, served with ketchup on the saddest looking plate. This was our bad, should've expected something like this for $6.Ceviche (1/10): served in a martini cup, which did not look food safe with 5 christmas tortilla chips. What we ordered did not look like the photo posted on yelp at all. We received less than 1/4 cup of ceviche. Only redeeming quality was the lemon was good.Prosciutto Bruschetta (-10/10): this should not even be called bruschetta. Bruschetta usually consists of grilled bread rubbed with garlic, topped with tomatoes, olive oil, etc. What we got was 2 tiny thick a** pieces of stale bread topped with the biggest mountains of ricotta cheese and two halves of a cherry tomato on top. no seasoning, ricotta tasted sour.Grilled Pulpo (3/10): this only gets a 3 because it was cooked very well, the octopus was tender, but the seasoning tasted like kids applesauce (very sweet) and there was no chimichurri sauce as shown in the photos.At this point we asked our server if it was possible to cancel the rest of our order because we were so disappointed with everything that came out so far. The gentleman came back to tell us it was too late, end of story. It would have been nice if he asked what was wrong with the food or if there was something they could do to remedy the situation.Herb Crisped Lamb Chop (0/10): 0 because we never received it. Actually kind of glad this one didn't come out because all the food we had tasted so far was not good.Tenderloin (3/10): this also gets a 3 because the cook on the steak was tender. Definitely not worth $35. The steak also had an extremely sweet seasoning that tasted like fruit rollups to me. Strange. The same server we asked to cancel our order with brought out this dish and he just seemed over it b/c we had previously asked if it was possible to cancel. The dish comes out with a dome lid with smoke inside - there was no presentation of the food, he dropped the plate on the table, took the lid off and walked away LOL. No description of the steak seasoning on the menu.Lobster Risotto (-10/10): the absolute worst. When the server brought this out I thought it was a korean pancake. It was drowning in a soup of ""gambas"" oil (also not mentioned on the menu) and was so overcooked it was basically a porridge. Lobster was undercooked and tasted like it had gone bad.My friends and I will normally finish as much as we can because what a waste of food! We're also not the pickiest eaters and are not that hard to please. However, these dishes were quite inedible so we asked for our check. There was another female server who came over with our bill and when we were explaining why we were leaving she was very apologetic, which is why I'm giving a 3 for service. The other dude should not be working in the service industry. A manager or server did not come over once during our stay to ask how things were or to ask if there was anything they could do to improve our experience. I have worked in many restaurants and typically if a customer is that dissatisfied with the food, the restaurant will comp some items. We actually had to remind them to remove the lamp chops from our bill b/c we never received it. We paid the entire bill + tip and as soon as we got up to leave we could see all the servers swarming to our table to clean it up and it seemed like they were badmouthing us. Not a good look, they could've at least waited until we were out of sight hahaha.Avoid. Avoid.

The visual appeal of the establishment was truly impressive. In terms of pricing, I would classify it as mid to slightly on the pricier side. For our party of four, the bill totaled around $250, covering four rolls, one appetizer, and four drinks.The standout item from our meal was undoubtedly the ceviche tacos. As someone who appreciates vegan cuisine, I did have high hopes for the rolls, but unfortunately, they didn't leave a strong impression. The faux fish texture was a bit too gelatinous for my liking. The overall concept is intriguing, though.When it comes to the drinks, the alcoholic options were decent but not extraordinary. They lacked a strong alcoholic taste.

It comes out on a stone pan thing so the rice starts to crisp up at the bottom! So generous with the octopus and pork too.

I ordered the white rabbit cocktail and it was really bland/plain. We ordered the uni toast which was not worth the $42 by any means. It's essentially Texas toast, thousand island dressing, pickles, and uni. It was good, it almost tasted like an uni Big Mac. But no where near the cost. Uni is everywhere, especially in ktown, and good uni doesn't cost that much. Next we had the scallop crudo. It's 2 large scallops, but they slice the scallops in thirds (top, middle, bottom) so it appears like 6 pieces. Again, really disappointing to see them cheap out and cut corners like that. How about just serving 6 scallops? The tteokbokki was super westernized, instead of the normal sweet/spicy flavor, it's in pasta sauce with basil and Parmesan cheese. Honestly it was gross. Then we got the crispy pork belly. The fat is SO sticky it glues your mouth shut, it's unbelievable. Barely any meat, just fat, can't believe they even sold it like that. Lastly, we got both desserts. The black sesame dessert was delicious, though I wish it was more than just a smear across the plate. And the cheesecake was disappointing. Not rich and creamy, instead it was airy and dry.The restaurant is also no longer busy and I can guess why.

Especially in these tough economic times due to COVID-19, I want to support local businesses even more. However, I felt the need to leave a review today.In conclusion, I went alone and ended up paying $50 just for a bowl without a tip.

Why make you calculate it after you've already eaten?

Since it was my first time here and my first time trying these foods, I asked the server if the amount I had was okay for one person. Her response was, ""Oh, it looks like you're very hungry, hoho."" My intention was simply to ask if I had taken too much for one person, not for some strange and irrelevant comment like that. But she insisted it was fine even though it was quite a lot.In the end, I filled two to-go boxes to the brim and took them home. So, I basically prepared three servings for myself. Why don't they tell you the price by weight upfront, so that the staff knows that what you're serving is too much for one person, especially for a first-time customer?The intention is very clear at this part. And why don't they ask if it's your first time? I had no idea if it was a self-serve system, and I sat there for over 10 minutes without getting any water or a menu. Later on, they realized I was a first-time customer and thought I was choosing my food from the menu. I mean, sitting alone for over 10 minutes as a first-time customer is pretty obvious, isn't it? Also, shouldn't there be at least two staff members working? One person handling cash, one in the kitchen, and one in the dining area, all while making me wait for over 10 minutes... Well, it was truly the worst dining experience I've ever had. I really, genuinely feel like I was scammed. Please don't run your business like this.And these kinds of reviews shouldn't make you feel bad; on the contrary, you should be grateful. Seriously, if I had wanted this place to fail, I wouldn't have pointed out these issues and would have just let it go under.","425 S Western Ave Los Angeles, CA 90020",4.3,114,"Chinese, Hot Pot, Korean",$$ +32,2023-09-07,2023-09-17,Pixiu Mala Hongtang,"First time having malatang and it was a great experience!!

I got level 1.5 today just to see how it is (im going to try level 3 next time). Then, you have a seat and they cook it for you in the meantime. You pay at the end depending on the weight of the food.I was so happy when our food came out. I was initially worried that they'd just jumble up all the food and boil it all at once, but it they def have a particular order of cooking the ingredients.

Towards the end, there are skewers but beware, you pay per skewer. When you take your bowl to the counter, they'll ask if you want to add any meat. They'll add that when they're cooking your soup so it's a fixed amount. You can get anywhere from 0 to 4 spice. The base soup has a strong peanut flavor and the more spice, the better! 1 is really minimal so I'd recommend a 2-3 if you like spicy, obviously a 4 if you want that extraaa kick.The lady who served our table was sooo sweet. She was an older woman and she explained how the whole system worked.Parking is minimal because they share spaces with at least 3-4 other stores.

We also ordered some extra bread for the table, the server again didn't mention it isn't complimentary after 2 servings for a party of our size of 6.

I had to ask about my chocolate souflee when everyone else's entree came out, she said she rang it in as a dessert. I was annoyed and confused cuz I literally said ""I'll have dessert as my ENTREE"". She informed me they take 18 minutes to cook, I became annoyed even more cuz I had to sit there while everyone ate except me.Overall, I wouldn't come back, solely due to my frustrations with the lack of communication.

The pickled vegetables were okay: pink radish, kimchi, and yellow cauliflower.The okonomiyaki wasn't great as it wasn't crispy and had too much mayo. It looks better than it tastes.Overall, definitely recommend coming here just because it's a cute area and they have a lot of dish varieties like pastas and soups.","234 S Oxford Ave Los Angeles, CA 90004",4.5,77,"Korean, Bars, Tapas/Small Plates", +35,2023-08-09,2023-09-17,Anju House,"My friend loved YellowHouse Cafe and finding out it was reopened, we decided to stop by for dinner.

The bulgogi was sweet and good, as expected taste, and the kimchi bacon pasta was good as well. They didn't overdo it with the kimchi or bacon so it's easy to not taste either one if you are sharing.

Located next to The Garland Hotel, The Front Yard is an aesthetic restaurant that serves contemporary American dishes. The outdoor seating is very beautiful and there is enough shade to keep everyone cool during these hot summers.I normally don't order fried chicken sandwiches but for whatever reason, I had to get one today. The chicken was cooked properly, not too dry or undercooked (god forbid) and it wasn't overly battered. Honestly, the sandwich was good, nothing that Wow'd me, but also wasn't bad. It's exactly what I wanted and for the right price. The fries that came with it were also good, just standard good fries. I wish I could explain more, but it was just what you would expect, no crazy ingredients, no fancy fusions, just a good fried chicken sandwich that left me feeling satisfied.The wait-staff was incredibly accommodating and even wore a mask for us when serving and taking our order. That's super rare as I'm writing this in fall 2023 and we're going through another covid wave.Overall, a great time location for grabbing a relaxed lunch and getting some good food.

He came out of the gates very knowledgeable of the drink menu and recommendations for each of us. All of the cocktails we ordered had a WOW element, either dry ice, smoke, or fire was involved. I had the campania ($19) and the Sardinia ($21) which were both light and refreshing.We started with a few appetizers (2) braised meatballs ($20 each) and a truffle pizza ($38). The meatballs were so tender and had the most addicting sauce. The pizza was loaded with truffle and the Parmesan cream sauce was the perfect pair. HIGHLY recommend both of those apps.For our entrees, we had the hardest time deciding but James ensured everything on the menu was amazing. My friend and I had the bone marrow pasta ($32 each) which stole the show!! This was my favorite dish! In our group, they ordered the lobster pasta ($75) cacio y Pepe with truffle ($32+ Truffle price), Bolognese ($32) and Wagyu Alla Vodka Pizza ($28).We were so stuffed from the food and drinks and wanted dessert but there was no way we could do it. We decided to take pictures after in the hotel courtyard and it was the perfect aesthetic. Our experience overall was a great start to our vacation.

We settled in and made our choices, starting healthy with the smashed cucumber salad, which was light and refreshing.

It reminded me a little of Hainan chicken, which is not a bad thing at all. Then, it was time for Dan Dan noodles--which were mildly spicy in a just barely numbing way and absolutely delicious--and pork dumplings, which were juicy and yummy. All of the food was absolutely on point, and it was fun to watch the chef in the back working the noodles by hand.Service is very friendly, though like any brand-new restaurant, they're still working out some little things (like what individual dishes to bring with shared noodle platters, though I think tonight we figured out that small bowls are perfect).

I ordered the veggie noodle soup with the wide flat noodles and a milk tea boba. Everything was fresh and delicious! You could taste each ingredient from the mushrooms, soft tofu, bok choi, garlic and cilantro. The noodles were chewy and LOOOOOOOONG.  I got no spice and added a little chili oil. It was the perfect spice level for me. The boba was also soft and chewy. The milk tea was sweet but ""not too sweet"". The staff and owner are super friendly and the service was quick!

Bacari is such a beautiful restaurant. It is always so lively, which makes it hard to get a table unless you are patient or book a reservation a week in advance, but that doesn't bother me. I love how lively it is. The food is great. I have had some of my favorite meals here. I have some different pointers on how you should order though, because some of the things I've had, I definitely would not order again.1. Best thing there: The Lamb Hummus. It's amazing. I could eat that every day. The only issue is that they only provide ONE single tiny pita for it. And the amount of hummus they give you could literally serve at least 6 of those pita breads. The pita breads are also SO amazing, they're so so fresh. But it's a bummer because you always have to order at least one extra pita, which is another $2.2. The burrata caprese is so good.3. Papas Bravas are alright, strange proportions.4. Oaxacan Pasta is delicious!!! I had never tried this type of pasta before, so maybe that's why I love it, but I get this every time.5. Brussel Sprouts are my second favorite thing on the menu, to the hummus of course. The Brussel sprouts have the best flavor, and they also have the greatest proportion/serving size I would say. Always order these.6. Chipotle chicken wings are super not great. I am a HUGE chicken wing connoisseur and so I was extremely disappointed by these, my friend and I couldn't even finish them. They were just weird. Weird flavor, and the skin was like soggy and just weird.7. The La Brea Rose is such a delicious and unique drink. I can't really describe it, but you gotta try it!!!Overall, I love Bacari, I will be back over and over. The staff here is great, and the food is awesome.

Make sure you make reservations or get there early. The restaurant does get full. Parking is horrible so get there early to look for parking or they do have a valet option but that also get filled up quickly. Let me start by saying the ambiance is great. We sat outside on the middle deck since there was another one above us and the ground floor was below. We were in a corner secluded which was nice since it was a date night. We were giving recommendations by the server on what food we should try based on our food likes. Let me say everything that came out was delicious!! We were both stuffed but the food was good we did not want to leave any so we ate more than we should've. They have a great drink menu and I went with the mad mango sour. More on the sour part but good nonetheless. For dessert we had the best cake you will ever have, that is the name of the cake and let me tell you it holds on to that name.

We decided to walk on over to the gas station across the street to see if they had wine to bring in.We didn't even take two steps before a man yelled after us. He said, quite rudely, that the parking (an empty lot, btw!) was only for customers. I explained to him that we intended to come in and get dinner but we wanted to buy a bottle first.""How long?"" he asked. I told him around 5 minutes and then he, with an attitude, repeated ""How long?""Not a really welcoming start to the experience. My girlfriend and I decided to go to Uovo down the street instead. Jury's still out on the food as we've yet to try it but I was so put off by this experience that I had to share.

They top the pizza with unwashed arugula salad, and unfortunately, mine came with a pebble the size of a peppercorn. I really thought I chipped my tooth!  I told the waiter about it and he told me it was probably a peppercorn until I dropped it on the plate and he also realized it was in fact a pebble. He took the pizza away and told me he'd get me a new one. His reasoning was because of the arugula. After another 15 minutes the pizza came back with more unwashed arugula.  I feel like they could have handled it better. I'm glad they did make me a new pizza, but afterwards, most of the staff came out to look at me, and that was awkward.  Also, bribe me with a dessert or a free pizza or something!

The best things there are the pastas. However, I've noticed it's not always consistent. 2 months ago I had the Alfredo for the first time and it was incredible. I had it again last week and it was bland. The pizza doesn't have enough flavor and never seems quite right. Tonight I went and shared the caprese and the calamari. The caprese was made with ricotta although the menu says burrata. I would have told our server but they never came back to check us on. Ricotta just doesn't taste the same in that salad and wasn't what we were anticipating as described on the menu. The calamari had a tasty breading and dipping marinara. However the calamari itself was dried out, likely frozen. I also ordered a glass of wine which on the way out I saw came from a Gallo magnum bottle. The glass was $14. Everywhere online that same entire bottle of Cabernet sells for under $10. There used to be a super nice, helpful youngish Latino guy working there but I haven't seen him in awhile. He seemed like he cared about things and customers but I haven't gotten that vibe from anyone there since he's been gone.

Just beware, the restaurant itself is quite small (so that's why the wait could take awhile or more people order takeout).Since this was our first time here, we wanted to try their popular dishes. We ordered: stir fry cabbage, beef roll, dan dan noodles, mapo tofu, three-cup jidori chicken, pan fried pork buns. I think my favorite dishes were the dan dan noodles, beef roll, and mapo tofu. The mapo tofu was not spicy as other mapo tofu, but you can add chili oil on the side if you want it spicier. The pan fried pork buns were ok, I don't think I would get it again but it wasn't bad.Overall I had a good experience here and would recommend this restaurant if you are ever in the Silverlake area.

However, I left a disappointed. Traditional Taiwanese food is citrusy, vinegary, spicy, and umami. Unfortunately, Pine & Crane missed the mark on all four. The food wasn't terrible but not up to standard. It's missing flavor, the food was bland and not made with love and dedication. Beef noodle soup comes with hours of prep and hours of simmering so the beef is falling off the bone. Instead, it tasted like beef stock with a little bits of beef shank. Dan Dan noodles is suppose to be spicy, nutty and fermented. But It just tasted like diluted peanut butter. Lastly, I got the shrimp wonton, again it lacked the flavor profile.

Full of tender meat, the perfect amount of cheese, onions, etc. skipped the fries this time and tried the cabbage slaw. Heavily salted, as someone who pickles vegetables all the time, you don't need this much salt. So I got creative and put some of it on my cheese steak.

Italians would probably shudder at the thought of this dish, but sorry Italy it's so very good! I would say if you come here you should stick to their specialty udons over the traditional cause they just have a little more something to them.I also always order my udon with a tempura soft boiled egg (a must!) and whatever other tempura I'm in the mood for.

Not worth the price. I did like the dressing which seemed to be made fresh.* Tofu Agedashi ($6) - 4.5 starsLovely silky soft tofu with a soft thick layer of breading, so tasty half soaked in the broth.

Definitely a very thick sauce, very heavy, just like you'd expect from a carbonara sauce at an Italian restaurant, and it went surprisingly well with the thick udon noodle thought I couldn't taste the ""hint of Miso flavor'. The thick bits of bacon were great. If you want something more familiar to a western palate or really different for Asian food, this is the way to go, but I wouldn't get this if you're looking for authentic Japanese cuisine.COLD UDON* Bukkake Udon (Cold Udon with Cold Broth. $6.95) - 4.5 starspic:yelp.com/biz_photos/maru…This was great! I was intrigued by the cold udon section, something I'd never had before. The photos made this serving look really small, but it still comes out in a huge bowl. You have to mix the different toppings (radish, bonito flakes, scallion, and tempura pieces) really well together. Once they're all in their right proportions mixed in, then it really tastes right! The radish adds a thickness, the tempura this great crunch, and scallion/bonita extra flavor. You can pour the sauce, in a separate container, over the noodle, but that ends up sinking at the bottom. I found it was better to make your spoon with the noodle and mixed toppings (get some from the bottom; they've invariably clumped there), then pour the sauce over your spoonful. Delicious!I also tried a bit of the Beef Udon (Hot Udon section), which was very classic and tasty. The meat was sliced very thin and was tender.

The fried chicken was nice and crispy with a great umami flavor paired with curry power and Japanese mayo on the side (8/10).Biggest downside was that it did take a while to get our food (about 30 mins for udon) especially the fried chicken which took about 40 mins.

The lot is a little narrow, and there weren't too many available spots left. My party of 2 was able to be sat right away, but I've heard that there sometimes is a long line.Food/Drinks: I always like trying places that have a specialty dish, and this place's was seolleongtang: a hearty bone broth made from ox bones. They give you a HUGE bucket of green onions, and there are also accompanying rice, kimchi, and radish kimchi. This is the best seolleongtang you can get in LA. Nice simple broth with a great selection of meat topping options so you can get whatever you're feeling that day. Add salt to your preference, and you are bound to have a perfect meal on a cold gloomy day.Ambiance: The place was a very mom-and-pop shop. Nothing fancy, but clean and comforting.Service: The waitresses were very nice and quick. Order came out fast since it's basically the only thing on their menu (just with varying toppings).Take-Out Packaging: Styrofoam bowls and plastic bagsSummary: Simply put, if I'm craving seolleongtang, I'm making my way here. My only complaint is the price. I can't quite remember exactly how much it was, but it was almost $20 (plus a potential parking fee). While this dish is a classic, I feel a little hesitant dishing out that much for this dish. Yes, this place has the best seolleongtang, but is a bowl of seolleongtang worth $20? Maybe. I feel like I would only come here if I'm really in the mood for it or if I need some hot soup on a cold day.","4163 W 5th St Los Angeles, CA 90020",4.4,2754,"Korean, Soup",$$ +57,2023-09-10,2023-09-17,Han Bat Sul Lung Tang,Must try KTown staple...with speedy service your bowl of amazing broth will fill your senses...it really is like slurping up silk,"4163 W 5th St Los Angeles, CA 90020",4.4,2754,"Korean, Soup",$$ +57,2023-09-09,2023-09-17,Han Bat Sul Lung Tang,"Love this place so much.

Sul Lung Tang is a dish that prioritizes on having a clean, beefy flavor and is served with salt, pepper, and chili on the side to be seasoned to each person's palate. The soup was amazing, one of the best ox-bone soup broths I've ever had and you can truly taste the quality of it.

Finally had a chance to try it.  Upon arrival, the line was already out the door. But don't let the queue scare you. It moves pretty fast. And the reason for this is because their menu is limited. It's really just one page. No fuss. You sit down, order, and in under 5 minutes, the food is brought out to you. You eat, and then you get out. This is not one of those places you sit around and chat. So if that's the ambiance you are looking for, this is not it.I ordered the tongue and flank. Added lots of green onion and salt to my preference. It was delicious. However, you will not be so full that you would have to undo your pants button. I left with plenty of stomach space for dessert. It's great if you have a hangover or wanting something light. Not so good if you are starving.Parking: Valet parking or park on the street.Line: Please note the queue starts at the back of the restaurant, where the parking lot is.

I fall into the last category, and I can say that Perch fulfills its promise, kind-of, but not really, but at the same time it kind of does, if that makes sense. Like imagine that you have been wanting to taste this cookie and finally you do, and the cookie is everything you hoped it would be but not in the way you expected it to be. So you build up expectations in your head, that the reality of the situation does not deliver. I guess that is the problem with having a robust and notable reputation, you could never live up to it because you can never measure up to a person's imagination.My partner in dine was my friend Carlos, the epitome of a Peter Pan type, old enough to know better, but stubborn enough to remain young at heart. He credits his youthful charm, perspective, and look to his regular visits to the gym and eating right. Note that he did not order the fruit plate of Perch, which means that he is not too strict.I opt for valet. It cost 16.00 dollars. If it it seems high, it is not for downtown LA prices. When we got close, the Valet asked if I could park a car in a nearby spot. I sternly, said no, ""you can park it."" I did feel a certain type of way for being asked to park my own car, even if the spot was close. I go out to be pampered, to be a princess in the world of dining, and quite frankly, a princess does not park her own carriage. Carlos made a joke to the Valet, on how I needed my car parked because I did not know how to park that well. I was annoyed. I stood up for myself, and for that I was the butt of a joke. I paid 16 dollars, I did not want to park my car. Am I right reader? or Am I wrong? Truthfully there is no right or wrong answer. I told Carlos how I felt and it took a cocktail from Perch to my mellow my nerves.The cocktails were not only effective, but tasty. I am someone who does not like to taste alcohol. I informed our server of this fact. I cannot remember their name but they read female to me, so I will be using she/her pronouns to refer to them. I asked our server what recommendation she had for a super sweet drink, she suggested a drink, I cannot remember what it was called but it was pink- fruity for sure, and it had a rim of brown sugar, maybe. It went down sweet-- just like I like my cocktails. This was the cocktail that softened my nerves enough to forget Carlo's blunder of joking with the valet at my expense.Carlos and I started off with the avocado toast. It was solid. I especially appreciated the citrus taste afloat the avocado toast. I also appreciated that the toast was sliced into three slices. I hate when I have to wrestle with my avocado toast; either while cutting it, or when picking it up. I also appreciated that Carlos did not wrestle me when I had two of the slices, and he only 1. Still that did not atone for his faux pa.The rest of the food was simply solid. I had the burger, and the potatoes. He had the classic breakfast: Two eggs, chic ken sausage, and potatoes. He cleaned his plate, he left a small bite of the sausage. I had that small piece before it was taken away by the server. Glad I did--- it was really good sausage!There was a bus-person, she read female to me. She preferred to speak Spanish to me. She had a necklace that was half a heart and half an infinity sign. I asked her, who gave her the lovely gift. She replied her husband with a smile that my heart saw. We shared a moment. She felt it too.As she was cleaning tables, our eyes met and she returned a sincere smile. When I left the joint to go to the Perch Bar, she said in Spanish, thank you for coming, in the most sincere way, like a mother's kiss on her child's cheek- pure love. This is the type of service I expect, customer-centered, sincere, and like I was welcomed guest. Now you see, why I ddid not park my car myself, because that made me feel like I was a number to be processed, and I needed to help in the processing progress of my own turn around the revolving door.Of course, Perch is nestled in the heart of LA. You sit amidst LA's famous skyline. That is why for those who want pictures, go here. Our dining neighbors did. It was two women and one got up three times to take pictures of her partner in dine. Then the server tried her hand at the picture taking. The women did not come together for the server. The same woman who was photographed by her partner in dine, was now being photographed by the server. So, I get that good pictures are important for people, so if pictures are that important for you, come here. But I guess everyone needs to go to Perch to experience its promise and decide for yourself if it was fulfilled or not. Its lofty reputation demands it!","448 S Hill St Los Angeles, CA 90013",4.1,10020,"Lounges, French, Breakfast & Brunch",$$$ +59,2023-09-16,2023-09-17,Perch,"Loves this place so much.

The patio has a sandy floor, and it feels like you've been transported to a beachside Italian village. (Or, well, someplace other than the block of West Adams that it shares with an auto repair shop.)The service is exceptional. Attentive but not intrusive, with lots of lovely little touches, like storing your leftovers in their refrigerator until you're ready to leave.The cocktail menu is small and creative. I tried the Espresso & Date martini, with vodka, oat milk, aquafaba and orange, and it was superb--well-balanced and very unique. I also tried a sip (and then possibly three more sips when someone wasn't looking...) of the Fig & Walnut (with Scotch, sweet vermouth and apricot) and it was excellent. I'm excited to return and try the other four cocktails on the menu.Cento's menu is pretty seafood-heavy, so as someone who can't eat seafood, I worried that I wouldn't find much to eat. But in fact, I found too much to eat. (See the note about leftovers above.)We started with the Heirloom Radicchio Salad--with dates, pecan, and raspberry vinaigrette--and the presentation was astoundingly beautiful. It tasted even better.  Next up was the Farro Salad with roasted eggplant (that's blended into a sort of baba ghanoush and mixed into the salad), dill crème fraiche and pomegranate, and that was amazing, too. It looked very simple, but the flavors were astounding. I could eat vats of it.Then, it was time for pasta (!!!). We ordered three pastas for the two of us, because we simply couldn't decide (again, reference note about leftovers...). The Bolognese was my favorite--a super comforting dish of ricotta gnocchi in a phenomenal meat sauce. I also loved the Sweet Corn Agnolotti (charred corn, crème fraiche, Old Bay and chervil). Definitely don't miss that one. And finally, the Spicy Pomodoro (which was not very spicy at all, and I'm a spice wimp), because I saw it going to several other tables and had to try it. While it was my least favorite of the three, it was still great.And finally...dessert. DO. NOT. MISS. DESSERT.

First of all the bread... Can we talk about the bread. Actually I can't talk about the bread because I'll start craving it again so therefore I'll just leave it at--get the bread! Food wise, we did not have any starters, but ordered 1 main per person. Chicken, Steak, Burger, and Fish. For a while it felt like we were playing musical chairs with our dinner plates. Moving them from person to person to make sure everyone tried each others yummy bites. Every dish was excellent and full flavor.

I arrived early and saw open street meters in front of the restaurant, but I opted for valet parking which was $15 (+$1 additional charge if paying with credit card). We had drinks at the bar while waiting for the rest of the party. Since we requested outdoor seating, we were eventually led to the patio surrounded by greenery. Our server was humorous and mindful of our dietary restrictions. However, their attentiveness waned as the restaurant got busier.DRINK ORDERED- The Sustainer ($15 - coconut, rum, turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg). A nice tropical drink with slight sweetness. The warm spices added an unexpected and welcome twist.FOOD ORDERED- Bread + All Four Spreads ($28). We received three varieties of fresh baked bread: a small baguette encrusted with poppy seeds, a chewy bread with sunflower seed topping, and a sourdough with olive oil inside and salted butter on top. My side of the table didn't get a knife... we struggled to tear the loaves with our hands. My least favorite bread was the baguette, since it was mostly hard and dry crust. The other two breads had better texture. While the sourdough had nice flavor, the olive oil didn't really work with the spreads.As for the spreads, I preferred the cheese with salsa macha and honey. Plain butter and salt was solid, but one bread already had ample oil and butter on it. The trout and artichoke dips were okay. Neither tasted much like their namesake though.- Roasted Beet Salad ($18). Warm roasted beets served on spring mix that was lightly dressed with a smoky vinaigrette. The salad was topped with pickled onion and mini toasts. Caramelized Spanish goat cheese contributed tartness and creaminess. I made a little toast with cheese, beets, and onion which tasted excellent.- Asparagus. Each spear was long and thick, cooked through, and retained a snap. The dish was topped with a creamy sauce that tasted fine, but was a bit oily.- Red Curry Mussels ($24). The mussels were just okay: soft, but not exactly flavorful. I liked the Thai-ish coconut milk curry, which had lime and garlic notes. The crusty baguette made more sense here, but it didn't soften in the sauce as I had hoped. It was nevertheless a tasty bite.- Hearth Roasted Mary's Half Chicken ($28). I was pleasantly surprised by the enormous portion of a dark leg quarter, white meat breast, and a wing. The chicken was juicy, and the skin rendered crispy. I enjoyed the spicy piri piri sauce that tasted like red bell pepper. My side salad didn't seem to have dressing on it, but there was enough flavor on the plate to assist.DESSERT ORDERED- Dark Chocolate Cake ($11). The cake looked promising, but unfortunately did not taste chocolatey. The sponge was not too sweet, which balanced the sweetness of the frosting. I appreciated the fresh whipped cream. Chocolate pearls added additional texture, but not much flavor.- Honey Creme Brulee ($12). The creme brulee was a smooth, loose custard pudding with a bruleed sugar crust. The custard had a strong vanilla and bourbon-ish flavor that I'm not sure was intentional. I also couldn't tell what the crumble was. At least the macerated grapefruit was good.","6530 Sunset Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90028",4.4,387,"American (New), Breakfast & Brunch, Bakeries", +61,2023-09-08,2023-09-17,Superba Food + Bread,Food was excellent!

Let's face it, the setting of this place is hard to beat. I used to sit on this gorgeous patio way back when it was still Cat&Fiddle, an unassuming British pub with a simple fare and cheap drinks. I won't be able to count times how many first dates I have had on that patio. I was really sad when it closed down. Never got to try The Hearth&Hound as it came around the pandemic, but I was elated to find the patio decorated with lots of trees and festive umbrellas and bougainvillea, the presence of which makes any which place look magical. But back to the food. Most things Superba makes is of good quality, especially the bread and bready things. However, as many many places in the city, the establishment's efforts to cut corners (and even bask on its laurels) becomes noticeable, which is terribly disappointed. Case to the point: I ordered an heirloom tomato and burrata dish, which I assumed would arrive with a sour dough toast. My mistake. But then again the dish said ""burrata"", not traces of burrata, not a promise of burrata, or burrata whisper, however, if you did not read in the menu that the white smear on the tomatoes was burrata, you would definitely miss that reference. Quite disappointing, yes. Further, a second server (not the one that took the order) brought out my Americano, which half spilled on the saucer. Without skipping a beat or turning her head she said passingly, ""Sorry about the spillage"", plop it on the table and continued walking. I was grateful she did not spill it on me because it felt that she would have said the exact same thing and left. Thankfully, seeing that I am taking pictures of the poor state of the coffee, the head waiter told me he would replace it and brought out a to-go coffee cup as if presuming that I wanted to take it to go, which I did not, but I was still grateful to get a hot cup of coffee instead of the lukewarm mess of the coffee that arrived earlier. Just because the service is casual it should not be careless, me thinks, because, you know, in the end, casual or not, you're going to put down 20% of the service charge. Other times I came here there were other small mishaps and imbalances but they kind of faded from my memory already. I really like the place and I want it to try harder to please the customers rather than to cut corners and save a buck.","6530 Sunset Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90028",4.4,387,"American (New), Breakfast & Brunch, Bakeries", +61,2023-08-28,2023-09-17,Superba Food + Bread,"Food was okay, nothing to die for.

My buddies have been raving about JnV's for some time and I had to go and check it out myself. The restaurant itself is very pretty with an open kitchen and chefs that smile once you enter. The Fairfax location is the only one I've been to and it's usually busy with a lively crowd.For food, we definitely gravitated toward the pizzas. My personal favorite was the White Lightning pizza which I absolutely loved and had I not eaten it so quickly, I would've shared a picture of it. We have some mushroom lovers in the group and they also raved about the ""Super Shroom"" pizza which gives a more than generous amount of mushrooms.To finish, we had to order the ricotta cookies which are the definition of a nice petite dessert. It wasn't so petite when my friend decided to order more and ended up eating 16 cookies in 20 minutes. If ricotta cookies are your thing, I'd be sure to call ahead to make sure JnVs has enough ricotta cookies available as we happened to catch them on a lucky day.The last part, which I really want to emphasize is how great the service is. Calling to make a reservation is very easy but the service once you're seated is so above and beyond. Our table was greeted not only by the hosts, bussers and servers, but also happened to meet the chef, manager and GM as well.

It was 4PM, they close at 9PM, and when I asked they told me there were only three parties ahead of me. I then asked if they mostly run on reservations, and they told me no that they also do stand by. So in the 15 minutes we waited while trying to figure out if it was worth it to wait and see how long it was going to be, we got a table. So I don't understand why we were told we might not get a table.Then they sat us in a booth that was way too small for five people. My group consisted of three smaller teenagers, if we were average sized people we would have fared worse. I asked if we could please sit somewhere else (there were several empty tables, and no one else was waiting), but I was told no.Then we were told that patrons usually order tapas style. So we all order something with the intention of sharing. This was a mistake, the entrees were way to small and we had to order more food. Again, my group had small people in it, so we don't normally eat a lot and we left hungry.Lastly, the bill was way too high. And on top of the overpriced food, there was an additional 18% gratuity charge that was added onto the bill. I'll never return to this place again.

My favorites are the shrimp and jalapeno. Non standard, but they were so delicious. They fry the mandus so well - the outside is so crisp and the inside is fully packed with a generous portion of filling.2. Perilla buckwheat noodle. This is such a simple dish, but the perilla flavor was spot on and there was a hint of sweetness that brought out the flavor even more. The noodles are topped with a generous heaping of seaweed. The portion is huge and could be split into two different meals. The noodles themselves are cooked to just the right tenderness. Would definitely order again.3. Cold kimchi noodles. The bowl is GIANT. It's actually deceivingly huge. The broth is delicious, noodles are very chewy, and the kimchi doesn't actually make it too spicy.For two, we ordered the steamed mandu sampler, the fried mandu sampler, and the 2 noodle dishes.

The energy made me just happy to be there.The buckwheat cold noodle (13.99) looks very basic, but it had a balanced flavor that was dynamic and more complex that just using soba broth. I enjoyed this a lot and surprised by the perfectly cooked noodles. The perilla oil worked well with the soy and it wasn't too salty. Thought this was great.The rose Tteokbokki (14.99) is so creamy, perfect chew and includes some bits of fish cake. My partner wanted his own dish, he loved it so much especially with the cheese. We're definitely ordering this again.The spicy cold noodle (13.99) was also great, nice kick and good flavor.The wonton noodle (14.99) was interesting, a lot of citrus and was very refreshing. It was different from what I was expecting, but had nice pieces of shrimp.The Steamed mandu plate (9.99) were okay, ironically my least favorite dish. The skin was a bit thin and you get only 6 pieces. They were honestly very standard and not as memorable as the other dishes.Love it. We always walked passed, but never got a chance to try it.

Enchant serves Korean fusion food in a stunning Barbiecore space. I went for dinner, and here's what I got:Drinks: Blue Coconut Margarita, Yo-Berry, Elderflower Tonic. The Elderflower Tonic was a little too spirit-forward for me, but I loved the sweet Blue Coconut Margarita and the Yo-Berry which tasted like an adult Danimals in the best way!Crispy Crab and Spicy Tuna: Unique twist on spicy tuna crispy rice but with a crab cake instead of the rice. Well spiced, huge pieces, super delicious.K-Taco Trio: The bulgogi taco was my favorite, would recommend this!Seafood Cioppino Pasta: Pretty average execution of this dish, but loved the fried crab on top.Kim's Kimchi Pasta: My favorite of the mains, spicy and flavorful, but wish there was more bacon.Born to Be Beef and Cheese: I was the most excited for this one going in. Really cool presentation, delicious sauce and potatoes, loved the tableside cheese brûlée and KBBQ-inspired flavors. The fondue could've been creamier and meat could've been more tender, but overall I enjoyed this!Cheesecake: Our slice wasn't fully defrosted when it was served to us, so the inside was still a bit frozen. After letting it sit for a bit, much better! Pretty average cheesecake but this spot isn't known for their desserts.Latte: Nothing to write home about, but a good (and pretty) latte!Overall, Enchant is a promising new restaurant with a creative menu and great drinks.

Why is there a CHOCOLATE hazelnut spread with avocado & an egg? My friend did not like it. She had to scrape off everything and just eat the toast with nutella.Crab & spicy tuna toast was good. It's small, but pretty filling if you order it for yourself. It's like a take on crispy spicy tuna except the crab replaces the rice.The waitress also took away my drink before I was done without asking.

Place was fully booked. We were promptly seated and our order was taken within 5 minutes. So far so good. But that was the end of the quality experience.We ordered a blue beach and a cocktail. The blue beach (given it's a soda mixed drink) foamed so much it caused a mess on the table. We had zero napkins and tried to flag a server (there were only 3 working) down for about 10 minutes before giving up and just getting up to grab our own. We ordered the spicy pork lettuce cups and the korean fried chicken to split. We got our lettuce cups about 15-20 minutes in. Not bad, just fine, nothing special about it.As my friend and I talk, I notice the general vibe of the restaurant. Many tables were either being ignored or missing items. The table next to us (who was there before we sat down) got one dish (the avocado toast) and seemed to be waiting on other items. From the time I started noticing them, they tried to flag the server to ask about the other dishes (they were told they were on the way) but never came out. The family eventually left 15-20 minutes later, just paying for the avocado toast and left. A while later, a couple came and sat at the table behind that one and waited for I'd say a good 10-15 minutes before their orders were taken (and they looked ready to order: they weren't looking at the menus, they kept trying to eye the waiters). I saw food being brought out to tables but items either going back (as the order was wrong/for another table) or people asking about other items. I noticed a pattern with the dishes being brought out: Fries, avocado toast, panini sandwiches, and seafood spaghetti. I didn't see any other dishes being brought out and weirdly those are also items I am not seeing in any of the review photos or mentioned in reviews except for if the restaurant or a soft opening review posted them. The table behind us had arrived at the same time, received their seafood pasta a little after we had received the cups, and I overheard them ask how much longer for the Donkatsu.At this point, mind you, my friend and I have been chatting this whole time. We've been done with our drinks and appetizer for a good 30-60 minutes now but are wanting to 1) order more drinks and 2) now feeling distracted enough in our conversation to realize we're missing our main dish. We are trying to flag down a server to order more drinks and ask about our order. The table behind us is also trying to flag down a waiter and we smile at each other in acknowledgement about how difficult it is to get their attention. I have never been at a restaurant where the servers actively look the other way. Like they were trying everything they could do not meet our gaze. My friend and I were now realizing we had sat there 1 whole hour without getting our second dish, had noticed the above behavior and patterns mentioned, and realized we're in Ktown, there are sooooo many other places around us with good KFC if that's what we want. So I end up just getting up and going to the bar to ask for a receipt for the items we received and mentioned we never got our fried chicken. The table behind us also gets up to ask for to-go boxes for the pasta and a check for just the pasta and drinks, no donkatsu. We end up leaving and going to Goltong Chicken where we were promptly seated and served within 10 minutes to delicious KFC.The servers are obviously extremely overwhelmed but instead of being honest with patrons (like ""hey, fried dishes will take longer than expected"") or saying they are out of items like previous reviews have mentioned, they are instead letting multiple tables walk out without their full order (without even an apology mind you).TLDR: Good drinks and instagrammable vibes but lot of tables (including our own) walked out because full orders weren't received and horrible service. There are plenty of other Ktown spots for brunch that have good food and service.","681 S Western Ave Los Angeles, CA 90005",3.7,37,"Asian Fusion, Breakfast & Brunch, Wine Bars", +69,2023-08-28,2023-09-17,Enchant,"Pretty cute little restaurant but their service got hectic at lunch. They kept forgetting my chicken panini and when I finally got it, the chicken was over cooked and tough. The fries that came with it were cold and hard. It wasn't worth asking for a new one as my food came last to the table and everyone else had theirs.Hazelnut latte was too sweet and left that kind of unpleasant sugary aftertaste from cheap syrup.Their kimchi pasta is pretty good, but the bread that comes with it was also hard.I wouldn't go back here unless I was specifically in this one area of Koreatown.","681 S Western Ave Los Angeles, CA 90005",3.7,37,"Asian Fusion, Breakfast & Brunch, Wine Bars", +70,2023-09-16,2023-09-17,Pigya,"Do NOT recommend this place.First off we had a reservation at 8:00PM(that we made a week in advance), we didn't get seated until after 8:30. I told the host (short guy with glasses) that we were  here and wouldn't seat us until our whole party was there even though right after we saw other people get seated without a full party. The rest of my party literally came in the middle of our conversation and he was still rude about it. I expressed my concern about how if we have a reservation, we should be accommodated and a table should be ready for us and he responded with ""well what am I supposed to do if people don't leave?"" What is the point of having reservations then? The host overall was very unwelcoming, did not hear a single sorry or hello or thank you.We also ended up having to sit separately since we were a party of 6 and the tables are pretty small. We should have been informed of this beforehand. It's common sense to think that people in a party would want to sit together, so I don't know why they thought that wasn't a problem. Would not recommend coming with a big group.Food was good but it might have been because I was hungry.

The service is spectacular as they cook the meat for you so you can focus on eating and hanging out with friends. All the meats are top-notch, but my personal favorite was the pork cheek.

The Guanciale bits are crisp and salty and really balance well with the creamy smooth cheese.Burrata. 5/5 Another winner with a flavor pop in each bite from the castelvetrano olives,The crusts of the pizzas are less crisp than some other Neapolitan pizzas and more airy and soft... reminiscent of a perfectly executed naan.Pastas.Squid ink spaghetti with crab. 4/5 Tender morsels of crab with very al dente thin spaghetti in a slightly briny sauce.

The view of downtown Los Angeles is impeccable whether it's basking in the afternoon daylight, enjoying golden hour, or dining among the moonlight. My friend made reservations at noon on a weekday and it got busy as our meal progressed.

There are plenty of cushioned tables for pairs or larger groups. Surrounded by lush plants, stylish furniture and decor, and a swanky open air ambiance--what's not to gush over? All staff who assisted us were warm and welcoming. The waitress made sure to ask about any allergies and checked in on us throughout our experience.Our waitress mentioned that the restaurant's food is best shared; so that's exactly what we did! We grazed upon French Fries and Mini Lobster Rolls. Fries are hard to mess up in my opinion. There's were good and crispy, loved the aioli and perfect to snack on. Lobster rolls were citrusy, the lobster was firmer and mild, the roll was crunchy too. My roll was heavily dressed which caused it to break in half due to being soggy.

Not so bad but definitely not dive bar rates.And the food. Comes out quick. That's not why we ordered one course at a time. We just didn't know what we wanted. But see pics.

The restaurant is a pretty cramped and you're seated directly next to another party. It is pretty busy so you don't have your own server who checks on your table often. If you need something you have to flag them down. That aside though, I loved the food and it did not let me down!! My friends and I ordered the Uni cream pasta and the bacon, eggplant, mozzarella pasta. The tomato based pasta was deliciously smokey and the pasta was cooked al dente, it was truly a dish to rave about. The Uni pasta was slightly less exciting, while the pasta and sauce was delicious, the single piece of uni threw me off. It was warm and very pungent, the dish could have done without it. Maybe it's just me and I don't like warm uni, but it was a strange experience. That said, the uni pasta was still my favorite because the sauce was just splendid.

Service was curt and a bit rushed, because I think I'd arrived near closing time and was part of their last batch of customers.If you order a pasta, you're served with a basic white bread roll with a pad of butter, as well as a side salad with a typical vinaigrette. The seafood pasta wasn't anything to write home about, I mean it was delicious but I think I could honestly make it at home. The mentai pasta had a great creamy, umami flavor from the butter and mushrooms that I enjoyed, however I don't think I'd be able to have the entire dish as it'd get too rich.I don't really like the ambiance here because I prefer less bustling restaurants, and because you're seated so closely next to others, other parties can hear your conversations relatively easily so just be mindful of that.

It was lightly sweetened with honey & balsamic, and the tomatoes they used were to die for).- For the greens, we ordered the Zucchini and while it was delicious, I wished we also had ordered the Little Gem Salad.

The entire dining experience was everything I expected and hoped it would be. Right when you enter you're greeted and they ask for your valet ticket number so your car will be pulled up right when your dinner is done. I genuinely appreciate those extra little fine touches.In total we had 11 courses and I did the additional wine pairing with the meal. I truly enjoyed each course and it felt like a work of art. The wine pairings went well with with each course. Some courses were better than others but all in all I loved the take on each one. The service was impeccable and I really liked the ambiance of the restaurant.

First, each meal is about $300. The wine pairing is about $150. Then, there are the upgrades. Tax. And tip. So if you do the simple addition you can see you'll spend a lot of money on your meal. So is it worth it? Well, let me say it is by far the most I have ever spent on one meal. By far! So go in with your eyes open. But was it worth it? Unequivocally yes! It's not just the food it's the experience. If you watch The Bear you know that restaurants like Providence seek to give you a full experience because they know you're spending a lot of money. The food alone was excellent. Starting with the amuse bouche which was so good I didn't know how they would top it. But they did. Each course explained. The servers seamlessly tagged teamed our dining experience. I don't drink so while my wife had her wine pairings they were kind enough to set up mocktail pairings for me, which I don't think they'd done before. There were certain food I didn't care for. I went with most of it but they were really clear that they want you to so speak up and ask for what you need and want. (But don't be a d$@& about it ) As one of our servers said, ""Here, we want you to say something. Always say something. It is not your job to fit into our experience. It is our job to fit into your experience."" As someone who has been called high maintenance that was honestly really nice to hear. Everything was good. You get to take your time enjoying the meal and enjoying your company. It was our twenty year anniversary and it was a great way to begin to celebrate it! And here is the cherry on top: I forgot my business card there. At first they couldn't find it but Sarah looked a second time after we looked everywhere and she found it tucked into the bottom of the bill holder. That alone was above and beyond. But then they did not simply say come get when you can they asked where I lived and checked to see if someone might be able to drop it off! Drop it off at my house. Are you kidding me? Well, they did. It would have been a two hour trip with traffic for me to get it and I was leaving for business the next day. Who does that? Providence does. So if you want to have a special experience with amazing food and are willing to invest in it I highly recommend giving yourself the gift of Providence, at least once.","5955 Melrose Ave Los Angeles, CA 90038",4.4,2942,"American (New), Seafood",$$$$ +82,2023-09-01,2023-09-17,Providence,"Providence was a very solid dinner experience with friendly and knowledgeable servers. The restaurant is fairly dark inside but each table has its own lamp, which adds a very intimate vibe. We found free street parking near the dmv about a block away but there is valet parking available too.We started the meal with two cocktails. I forgot what they were, but one had watermelon and the other had honey from the beehive on the second floor. Both were good and not too sweet. From the add-ons, we got uni egg with caviar which was a bit salty (most likely due to the caviar) but delicious, along with the rabbit tortellini which was good but could use some more flavor.For the main dinner menu, the amuse bouche was a great start with shiso wrapped tuna and several other small bites. We both loved the shima aji, but everything else lacked a similar wow factor. However, we both did not like the bread service. Compared to some other fine dining restaurants, the crust here was very hard to chew and might poke the inside of your mouth if you try to bite off the corner so be wary of that.We got the swordfish and the duck for the entrees. The swordfish was soft but didn't have a whole lot of flavor, but this was also my first time eating swordfish so I don't have anything to compare it with. However, we've eaten duck multiple times and the one here was good but not great. It was cooked well but the sauce could also use more flavor and salt.Onto dessert, the mango one was like a sorbet and tasted really good. Very fresh and flavorful mango. The chocolate dessert tasted somewhat like haagan daz which is a good thing, but needed more of the ice cream to balance out the chocolate. Then finally, there were a couple small bites and sweet coffee  to end the night.","5955 Melrose Ave Los Angeles, CA 90038",4.4,2942,"American (New), Seafood",$$$$ +82,2023-08-28,2023-09-17,Providence,"This place is hands down the most interesting culinary experience I've ever had.

Everything was so perfectly curated and the vibe of the place was cool - it's soft and quiet. Haven't had many other Michelin star restaurants in LA, but this one deserves all of the hype.

I called them and a rather nasty man answered and said he couldn't trace it unless someone returned to the restaurant with a receipt.

My wife ordered the Spaghetti and gave me a little bite, I have to say the lemon that is used in the dish makes this spaghetti quite a dish. It was a flavor I have not had before.Both drinks my wife and I got (The Watermelon Drink - wife) and the (espresso martini - myself) were very good.My wife's drink was very good, it was a type of slushy and had tons of flavor. The espresso martini also was very good, I make it a point to try an espresso martini at just about every restaurant that has one. The ingredients intrigued me as i believe this is made with Kahlúa but it is not overly sweet but the right amount to still taste good with your burger or pasta.The next time my wife and I are in the area we will be stopping by for drinks. Joey's is a bit expensive so just make sure going in that it is on the pricier side.

The atmosphere in this restaurant is amazing. First you walk in and the courtyard feels like a hidden oasis. You go into the restaurant and it's chic and chill. The light  fixtures were one of my favorite parts. Then you have the staff! Lexi was our server and was so much fun. It was like we were visiting our bestie who just got a new job. We got to meet Chef Shenarri who was so down to earth and passionate. She made the night one to remember.AND THE FOOD!!

To eat we tried the jollof arancini (absolutely delicious, this is a MUST), the palm bisque (also great, loved the mushroom) & grits (these had more of a couscous consistency & tasted great). To finish we had their version of beignets (puff puff bread) which came with a ginger habanero chutney-very unique!

Our impression was that it's a pretty new restaurant and they were going through some growing pains in terms of efficiency. The servers were very nice but we had two separate servers and that made the made things a little less seamless and slow. The indoor and outdoor setting was cool and west African music was authentic. I'd go back and highly recommend the okra passion fruit dish and the trumpet mushrooms.

We all left full and happy, will definitely be coming back!The food is meant to be shared family style with a recommendation of 2-3 plates per person. We ordered one of each food menu item and our favorites were:- Jollof arancini - well-seasoned, perfectly fried and the sauce on top was so delicious, we got a second order- Grilled cabbage - smoky, savory- Fonio grits - love they use Old Bay with mushrooms- Palm bisque - it's got some great heat- Lion's mane pie - perfect crust and yummy fillingWe also enjoyed all the other dishes, the only one that was a miss was the SUYA. I love celery root and was looking forward to this dish. Unfortunately it didn't come together for any of us. The celery root was grilled perfectly but wasn't seasoned enough, the tzatziki seemed like an after thought - not much of it and also wasn't well seasoned - and we didn't get where the tomato confit was (ours was served with fresh micro greens, red onion and tomato). Great concept, I hope they work out the execution of it bc I'd love to try an improved version of this dish.Both desserts were delicious. The plantain cardamom tart was served warm and gobbled up quickly. The puff puffs were fried to perfection but the chutney was a tad savory for a dessert course, and that generally seemed to be the consensus - we left a bunch on the plate.Not taking a star off for any of the slight misses, bc we had a great experience overall.They have a full service bar with wine, beer, and a great cocktail and mocktail menu. We each got a cocktail or mocktail and it's so nice to have a yummy grown up drink for anyone who doesn't want to drink for personal reasons. I got the viridescence and would recommend as a light summer refresher :)The decor is beautiful with trees and overhead lights on the patio, and inside fiddle leaf figs, plush banquets, etc. A nice place to dress up a bit and go have fun.The service was warm and attentive from upon arrival until we left. Several of us were running a few minutes late, they didn't guilt trip us and sat us as we arrived, ensuring each person got water and drink orders started. They were kind and attentive throughout and showed genuine appreciation for our patronage. They even initiated an offer to take a group photo for us which we appreciated!Parking was easy - my partner and I found street parking on Melrose, our friends got valet ($10). Again, they don't make you wait for the whole group to arrive to seat you, so you can have someone look for parking while others get seated and order drinks if you prefer to save on valet.","7469 Melrose Ave Los Angeles, CA 90046",4.7,9,"Vegan, African", +86,2023-08-13,2023-09-17,Ubuntu,"Overall, ambience was super cute. We loved the customer service and most dishes were tasty. But one issue I would say that came from our visit tonight was food portion. We ordered 6 dishes for the night. Now I get that this is a more upscale restaurant but the portion size was extremely small. So if you come know you probably won't get full. The entrees are the size of appetizers. It felt like everything was tapas basically. I was really taken a back by the grits dish. Considering this is usually a hearty dish, I was thrown off by what we received. It looked like we had a scoop of grits smushed down to the shape of the bowl they came in with a few mushrooms and raw tomatoes with a bit of a sauce. Considering that grits are such a cheap dish, one would at least think that you'd have enough to share with the table. The rice and black eye peas portion also very small to share.  Lastly, we loved the Lions Mane pie. But when you realize you paid $14 for a small one it makes you question what you're doing. The Jollof arancini was tasty very diff than jollof but was really good. My friends ordered the non-alcoholic hibiscus drink. They loved it. Mine I ordered the gin drink called Nyaniba but it tasted like it was also non-alcoholic. Was tasty if it were a drink without alcohol. If you have money to burn to taste appetizers I'd say this is def a cool spot to try but honestly if you thought you were going to get more of the filling West African food with a vegan spin, you're not going to get that here.","7469 Melrose Ave Los Angeles, CA 90046",4.7,9,"Vegan, African", +86,2023-08-09,2023-09-17,Ubuntu,"I discovered Ubuntu on Instagram and was immediately excited due to dwindling variety and volume of plant based restaurants in LA.

The marinade they used wasn't overly sweet and it was just super delicious! But they do put this on a portable stove at your table so it keeps cooking. The meat may get a bit tough later if you don't turn off the stove.I read an article saying that Lee Ga makes their own naengmyeon noodles. They even have a machine that makes it, which is one of the reasons we got it. The noodles were great -- texture is chewy and bouncy. I feel like the broth was a bit under seasoned? There wasn't much flavor to it and the broth wasn't icy. Maybe it's because we had the gukbap first and the gukbap had so much flavor that the naengmyeon seemed bland.The kimchi dumplings were pretty dry though.

It can probably feed 3-4 people. 10/10Johnson Tang (Korean Army Stew), added ramen - yum yum yum! The soup stock is so flavorful! Lots of sausages, ham, kimchi, onion, and topped with cheese. They pre-cooked the ramen to perfection, and put it on a large separate bowl for us so we can dig right in without waiting for the ramen to cook. Whatever sauce they made for the stock is amazing, adding a nice depth to the flavor. Great portion size as usual. 10/10Pork Belly Bossam - tender pork belly slices, yet again perfectly seasoned and great portion size.

First time I'd heard of this place the line was out the door and long so my friends and I ended up at a different restaurant in the same plaza. Since then, every time I pass through town and research Yelp for yummy places to eat, this one seems to keep popping up. But then, I'm usually alone and it seemed like too much food for one. Boy was I right!We were a party of three this time. It was close to 8pm on a Tuesday night so the wait was maybe 15-20 minutes. After reviewing the menu, I realized this menu did not offer diet food. There were no fresh vegetables in their offerings. Sometimes, you just need an indulging meal.The space is quite small. Depending on the table configurations there were a maximum of 4-5 table sets possible. But this tinyness of the space added to the charm. People came in and out to grab takeout while all the tables were filled. It amused me that all the customers at the time of our visit were probably all under the age of 25, except us.And then I saw all their bowls of Tteokbokki on their tables. They weren't regular bowls, they were GIANT bowls full of sticky noodles covered in spicy gochujang style red sauces, covered in gooey cheese. We ordered Yup Dduk, Set C. In our order there was yam noodles (the kind Japchae is made of), fried onion rings and fried zucchini, fish cake, a couple small pieces of sausage and maybe some other things. Being an ""older customer"" my body can't necessarily handle such a carb loaded meal. But, my eyes and taste buds feasted on this dish! It was delish! I think this bowl could have fed 6 people! We had plenty of leftovers. On the side, the only vegetable to be considered was pickled radish. Does that count as ""balance""?One of my favorite things about the meal was making seaweed covered rice balls. I'd never done this before. So much fun and delicious too. I'll be trying this at home!And when they advise ""extra mild"", I recommend you take their suggestion. No shame in extra mild.I can handle a decent amount of slickness. No joke! This was spicy!

I typically take pics of all of my food but we were so darn hungry that we couldn't wait...lol! Each sushi and hand-roll we ate was delicious! The service was great too! There was always a server or waiter walking around and was also knowledgeable about their menu too. The reason for a 4 star review and not a 5 star review is due to us having to sit outside. We weren't able to get reservations for any inside seating. So, we opted to sit outside and it was noisy, cars honking their horns, panhandlers, and an occasional entrepreneur trying to sell their hand made soaps. I'm sure if we had the opportunity to sit inside, this would have a higher chance of being a 5 star review. Oh! Off topic but their restroom is big and clean too! Would I come back? YES! DEFINITELY!

Sure, it's better than your average place when it comes to selection, but they do not seem to pick the best fish, and do not seem to know how to flavor the fish delicately, Maybe is their style of sushi. which I've found to be the case in many Non Japanese owned sushi bars. They use too much vinegar. Also every pieces of nigiri I ordered rice are weird shape and falling apart. They use too much sauce to cover the fish flavor. Ambience is good.

My friends were in town so I made reservations for dinner  Food was not that great. Our server was very nice until he tried to rip us off. We received our bill for a table of 3 to be split equally. One of us gave cash towards the bill with the rest to be split among 2 cards. We all knew what the total bill was. The server used the table mobile card scanner. The server was extra chatty the entire time he was running our cards. He ran my card and as I selected the 20% tip option, the total was a lot more than I was expecting. I didn't take a copy of my receipt, because I trusted that the bill was correct. As we left, I asked my friend who also paid with card how much she was charged,  to my surprise we were both confused as to why we were charged so much. We debated if we should be those people and question the bill, (please note that he was taking almost $80.00) more than what we saw on the bill so we decided to straight to the server to ask him. He gave us some BS answer and told us our bill total was an amount way larger than what we all saw on the printed bill - which still did not make any sense. We then approached the Hostess to explain our dilemma. She seemed annoyed with  us and gave us major attitude for wanting to speak to the manager. At this point the server comes back very apologetic, saying that their system didn't recognize the cash that was suppose to be added towards the bill. He said he would return both card charges, and would give us 20% off the bill. We both then ran our cards again for the correct amount. We were never refunded the original charge nor did he give us 20% off.

They cater to guests attending the Pantages, so they try their best to get you in & out in a timely manner before the shows. Due to the staff being so busy, we were a little short on time by the time our server came to take our mains. He promptly offered to comp the entree and put a rush on it, and whatever leftovers we had they could store at the front, temperature controlled. (AMAZING)When we finally received the main, they also brought out another dish we had asked about but didn't order due to the timing. Without even asking or saying a word, they comped us 2 mains and a round of drinks.10/10 for this restaurant. I don't normally write reviews, but this service was the best I've ever received.

While I could be particular about some minor things about the restaurant I have no reason to think this place is below 5 stars.We started at the bar where Raphael made us some fantastic classic Negronis! We got the Brussels Sprouts to start-which had the right amount of char with their flavor. Some bites were citrusy and others not so much, which I liked. The Duck Confit was fantastic! The meat was tender as but the skin was the real game changer (normally I pass on the skin). The scallops were the special and were the most tender I've ever had! And I don't even like scallops! We wrapped it up with the Mushroom Pizza which was stuffed with Ricotta. Our server, Seth, was friendly, attentive, and informative of the menu. The only other issue we had was that the real scenic spots were saved for the night life-but that makes sense from a business standpoint.

When I first came upon Lemon Grove, I wasn't sure we'd be able to just walk in. On their site, you can only make a reservation with a credit card. But we took a chance and stopped in. I like that it's not super evident when you're looking for it LOL. Made me feel like we were on a treasure hunt. Well, what a treasure it was! The service is off the charts. I don't know the name of the hostess, but from the moment we stepped in until we paid our bill, I felt like royalty. My vegan husband was super excited to see the mushroom dish (pic attached) and what is usually a very humdrum ""house salad"" in most places was remarkably fresh and tasty here. My daughter had pizza and I experienced the tastiest kale salad. My only regret was not having enough room in my belly for more of the ""bougie chips and dip""!!

You walk up a stairwell, leading you to the restaurant and there are so many different areas for seating. Great for a girls night out or a date.Drink: I got the Tommy's Margarita. It was okay, a classic marg. Originally, I ordered El Taquero but mentioned I don't like mezcal so asked for regular tequila. When I got the drink, it wreaked of mezcal, it smelled so smokey. When I had a sip, I honestly couldn't drink it... I really don't like mezcal. I told the waitress that I think the bartender made it with mezcal accidentally and she said he didn't, and mentioned the seasoning they put in it is really smokey... I was confused why she wouldn't warn me about how smokey the drink is when I mentioned in the beginning I didn't like mezcal. I asked for a new drink and the waitress seemed pretty annoyed and had a little 'tude with me because when I asked for a minute to decide what to order next, she took over 10 mins to come back to me.Food... very lackluster.Smashed Avocado: Their version of a guacamole, if you could even call it that. It's truly what the name is, it's smashed avocado. No seasoning, no other ingredients mixed in. Not my type of guac at all, I like a chunky guac. Absolute pass. I think I had a single bite, it was like baby food. Also expensive, $13.Coctel de Mariscos: Very overpriced for what you get. You get the same circular sheets of tortilla chip that came with the smashed avo and there's a very small bowl of ceviche. Most of it is avocado, not nearly enough fish inside, and most of it is cheap cuts of octopus. $21Pork Belly Taco: Plated beautifully. However, the flavor was completely disappointing. I honestly questioned if I had covid when eating this (I didn't) because there was that much lack of flavor. Would pass on ordering this. $8Cochinita Pibil: Comes with 3 tortillas. A small portion of pork shoulder and beans in a bowl with spices. Topped with... you guessed it, more avocado. This was solidly okay. $28Clearly, the food was a huge miss for me, but it's possible I ordered all of the wrong dishes. If I were to rate it on the food, I'd probably give it 2 stars and sorry to say, that might be generous. The decor itself is such a draw, it's stunning and that alone would make me come back for a drink, so I'm adding a star for that, but just don't expect much from the food.

My friend's, the Asian Chopped Salad was covered in edamame despite its removal being requested and the ordered salmon wasn't there. After fixing the salad, a few bites in there was a hair. They addressed this by replacing the salad and comping the first salad but not the salmon. It was an odd way to fix the issue but my friend wasn't mad so neither was I.Another attempt to soothe things was selling us on the idea that their bread was good so we ordered some.

Honestly, the only negative I would say would be one, you may have to wait here a while. My understanding is they do not take reservations, and while we were seated immediately, we came at 9 o'clock at night on a Tuesday, arguably one of the slowest times for a restaurant. And the place was still packed.We got the crab as a bowl, which means they pre-clean the crabs for you, but for the full experience, you are supposed to do it yourself. I did take some of that to go, and it was similarly delicious. However, the luxury of having them do it is not something I would complain about. They also give you a crab soup on the side which was very tasty, and a few side dishes.

Each person (we had 3) also got a bowl of rice and crab miso soup. Gloves are provided and it's highly recommended to use these because it's just easier to squeeze out the crab meat with your hands. Take a bite with rice or wrap it in the provided seaweed. SO GOOD! Takes me back to Korea but the only problem is the price. The crab miso soup was even better, maybe even better than the marinated crab itself.Regular Live Uni: Comes with 4 halves of a live uni, filled with rice, roe, 3 pieces of (small) uni, and a raw quail egg. If you want premium, I think that just comes with more uni. This is an IG-worthy dish, very aesthetic. But I could've done without it. You can easily finish each half in like two bites and it's pretty expensive because of the uni.Overall, pretty satisfied with the meal but it's just so expensive compared to Korea.

The crab- honestly was a bit of a let down. I didn't really like the marinate it lacked flavor compared to the soy marinated crabs im used to. The food came out fast but the place is on the smaller side and gets crowded fast so i would definitely come here on odd hours or when they open because it is not worth it to wait.","1147 S Western Ave Los Angeles, CA 90006",4.4,496,"Korean, Live/Raw Food, Seafood",$$ +102,2023-09-14,2023-09-17,Little Sister,"Incredible food.

Bare in mind our order of food still had not arrived, and his words were ""that's fine, but at this point I'd like you guys to leave.""  We were nothing kind to the servers that came, nothing but kind to the manager, but for whatever reason he felt a need to give us the boot rather than listen to what our problem was with the service which resulted in us asking for him in the first place.

The tableware was original and fun.All of our servers were great, but could have been more detailed with the very original, and unique dishes, how they were prepared, what techniques, and the background of the unusual products. However, the host/floor manager who came by a couple of times was rude, snippy, unprofessional, and unpleasant considering we each paid over $200 per plate for the evening. The place was quite empty. We asked to be moved to the patio to have a bit more peace as the music was loud with a driving beat. He said the music would soften, but it did not. He refused to bring it down a notch. We could barely focus on the food. The answer was a curt ""no"", with no reasoning whatsoever.My dining partner asked for a bit more wine with the first tasting. We had driven 90 minutes to the restaurant on a busy night and she wanted to relax. The host or floor manager's reply was a snippy, ""You'll get your 3 glasses in. No. We can't serve you any more of the tasting wine.""  Such rudeness and assumption we were there for 3 glasses of wine? Seriously?The final issue were the restrooms. One was unusable as some male had missed the toilet altogether and the floor was a puddle of personal ""liquid"" and the other toilet was clogged. Co-gender restrooms may be ""in"", but again, when you've planned for a nice evening out, visiting a smelly or messy restroom is just disgusting.We won't be going back.

The generous helping of crab paired with perfectly seasoned rice and wrapped in seaweed made each bite an absolute delight.The seaweed salad with pickles was a refreshing interlude, offering a balance of textures and tastes. It was a delightful way to cleanse our palates before moving on to the next course.The Spicy Tuna on Crispy Rice was another standout dish. The contrast between the spicy tuna and the crispy rice base created an explosion of flavors in our mouths. It was a creative and delectable twist on a classic.As if that weren't enough, the sea bass Seabass Croquette was the perfect finale to our culinary adventure. The croquette was crispy on the outside, revealing a melt-in-your-mouth sea bass interior.

I just ate what is possibly the best dim sum that I have ever had. The caveat is this, my wife doesn't eat pork or beef, and both of us don't eat shrimp anymore. So, that makes it often difficult to find dim sum that we like. That wasn't always the case, and we've eaten plenty of conventional dim sum at a wide variety of restaurants. When I looked at Kingdom Dim Sum online, I was impressed that they have so many items made with chicken. Often, the chicken dumplings taste like they were frozen and just steamed before serving. This is not the case with Kingdom. In fact the thing that makes their dim sum stand out to me is the FRESHNESS of the food. This is not in SGV, but very near Thai Town in a new-ish plaza off Hollywood and Western. There is quite a bit of free parking. Restrooms are clean and newer. The place is airy and bright, simply decorated.Ordering is done through scanning a QR code that leads you to an online ordering app. A little challenging for old folks like us, but doable. Lots of delivery and takeout, but we dined in.  Smaller place with about 8 small tables for 2 or 3. Pretty difficult to have a large group. A lot of the dim sum seems to be made fresh when you order it, so there is some lag time. We first got the sticky rice with chicken wrapped in lotus leaf. That was probably steaming for some time, so was ready quickly. Very tasty and not mushy. The chicken siu mai were very large, tasty, and fresh. The pan-fried chicken dumplings were very good. The wide rice noodle filled with chicken were so fresh and delicate in texture. The turnip cake was hot off the grill with a thin, crisp crust. The pan-fried chicken bao was slightly crusty, soft, and tasty. The custard tarts were amazing. The crust was more delicately crumbly than flaky. It was filled with a thick layer of egg custard that was unbelievably delicate in texture and flavor. One order of each of the above cost us $48, not including tip.

I ordered their frito pie, a brisket taco, and Ranchwater to drink, and none of it disappointed. The frito pie came in a frito's bag and immediately took me back to being high school in Texas.The place itself is small, but neatly organized and definitely has a Texas kind of vibe and ambiance.

Let me say that you can wait awhile BUT stop and take in the atmosphere, vibe and company you came with and that won't matter. For what you'll spend, relax and enjoy your time.Waiter was very nice, attentive and genuine. We got the Mac and Cheese, Meetball appetizer, Shrimp fettuccine and Pappadella Mushroom pasta. All the food was great. Only recommendation is the Shrimp Pasta only had 3 shrimp. The meatball appetizer SHOULD definitely be a pasta dish on the menu! That sauce is amazing! The sauces and pastas were great. The sauces were the kind you want to dip your bread in and take in every bite. (Foodies know what I'm talking about) Being Portuguese, we're VERY critical about pasta and sauce and what is ""wipe the plate clean status"".The bread comes with a butter and sauce on top of the butter. Texture, taste and presentation made this place I'd have special occasions at for sure.The ONLY two things that were disappointing is parking and the bathroom. Parking does not exist and is on a very busy street. Your only options are Valet at currently $10 or park a distance and walk there.The bathroom is a unisex bathroom with three sinks located to the left, 3 stalls and one bathroom at the end with a men's urinal. Twice I had to use the restroom and the seat of the toilet was up. No big deal but something I'd like to avoid having to deal with.Overall great place.

She recommended us to get the French bagguette with steak frites and the mushroom pappardelle! And she did not disappoint it was one of the greatest meals I've ever had no joke. Then we got sat and our waiter Mayron was so friendly! He brought us some cute little wine samples they were delicious and he recommended the toffee cake for dessert and it was amazing!!!! He asked my boyfriend while I was in the bathroom if we were celebrating anything and my partner said ""just love"" and Mayron put a little sparkler on our dessert and I just thought that was soooooo cute and sweet!

The professional staff and attentive service added to the experience.However, the culinary journey took an unfortunate turn.

Mr. T was near my place and I had it down as a 'one day soon,' place, somewhere that needed a bit of an occasion to go to and not just a regular place. The minimalist interior, the neon sign it definitely didn't have that 'Tuesday night dinner' kind of vibe.I gambled that it wouldn't be packed on a Friday night and while it was busy it was very easy to get a table on their patio which was open enough to be mellow but seemed to magically block out the cement plant across the street.I wasn't driving so when the server came by I ordered their twist on an Old Fashioned, the Double Up. I've decried a 20 dollar cocktail before and I will again here-but it was tasty, that can't be denied. I think fat-washed spirits are a bit much, or I did until here, it wasn't just the flavor but the heft of it. The coconut oil was a better call then say bacon fat, which I think leaves too much residue. Look, it's 20 bucks, I still think it's a bit overpriced but I'd get it again while grumbling that it might be 2 bucks more than it should.What I'm definitely more comfortable splurging on are appetizers/small plates/shareables so the lamb kebab, chip n' dip and the croquettes were all ordered and devoured. The kebab was delicious with the lamb being right at the edge of tender/game-y. The chip and dip was like an upscale version of a basic starter but not overly so, a little tartness, a little savory. Perfect. The croquettes though, all veg, but still so rich.I figured if they could do chips and dip up why not have their burger. I have a clip of the flambe which was a nice touch but without the theatrics it was still a very well-done burger with a bonus of char and that spicy aioli that came with the fries.Our server was so great that it didn't take much convincing to get their desserts which also seemed really simply but done well. All in all it's a great place to go to, make up an occasion, just go.","953 N Sycamore Ave Los Angeles, CA 90038",4.5,97,French,$$$ +120,2023-08-14,2023-09-17,Mr. T,"Loved the total package, food, service and atmosphere.  You definitely need reservations for this restaurant if you want a table either inside or on the beautiful patio.

Dropped by for brunch on Labor Day weekend around 11am for a party of two. Parking is strictly street parking in the area so give yourself time to circle around the neighborhood. As I put my name down on the list and was quoted ~30 min wait I was also advised that the bar area was open with no wait. My friend and I walked into the bar and saw some high top tables open. We sat on one after confirming with a waiter walking by that those too were considered the ""bar area"". We could see the bartenders making drinks and assumed we would be given menus shortly.About 10 mins passed and nobody had approached us. Behind us was another couple and we leaned over and asked if they had ordered at the bar since they had menus and we weren't sure if that was the expectation. They told us they had been waiting for 20 mins and nobody had come up to them either. They were given menus when they first sat down and told someone would come up to them. They had even walked up to the bar and asked if they needed to put their order there and they were told that again someone would come up to them.That nice couple offered their menus and all four of us continued to wait. At this point it's been 20 mins for us and probably 30 mins for them and despite waiters walking back and forth nobody stopped to check in on us. At this point the other couple goes up to the bar and they let them put in an order there (which if you ask me they should have let them do that when they first asked). At this point I get a text my table will be ready in 5 mins and to confirm I'm still there. The couple tells us that we should just go up to the bar and I tell them we waited long enough that our table was now ready - so much for no wait time at the bar! We left the couple inside the bar area with no food or even water offered to them!!My friend and I were taken to a table in their patio which is really cute and shaded. We ordered the French toast and the green chilaquiles with avocado and medium easy eggs to split. I also got an iced latte.The food was awesome which only makes the whole experience so disappointing. Your service can really tank what was a really tasty meal. The French toast was super fluffy and not too sweet. The berries on the French toast were very fresh and the syrup was warm.The chilaquiles were incredible. I would definitely get these again - they had a nice kick and there was a perfect amount of sauce so the chips weren't soggy. My latte was also very good - it wasn't bitter.Our server was very pleasant and the service once we were at the table was very fast and efficient. Out the door about $50 for both of us which is a great price for food in this part of town.Overall, I wouldn't recommend the bar area if it truly is always this dysfunctional. I was genuinely shocked at how horrible that whole bar experience was and I felt terrible for the other couple who didn't put their name down for a table and were just waiting for service that never came. Just wait for the table if it's always this bad because the food is honestly worth it!","1760 Hillhurst Ave Los Angeles, CA 90027",4.1,3762,"Breakfast & Brunch, Coffee & Tea, American (New)",$$ +125,2023-09-12,2023-09-17,Home Restaurant - Los Feliz,"Saturday 8/9-Wife and I stopped here prior to a show at the Greek theatre.  Food and ambiance were fine but I/ we got really poor service.  The server took our order, got us drinks, noticed that it was taking a bit and went to check on it and assured it'd be at our table shortly.  Once the food was delivered he never came back.  I normally order a beer while I wait and one with my meal.  Well- I had to eat my meal with water as he served people around us but I could not flag him down.  ""Sir!

First off, I love seafood and I love to eat crab but to caveat, I've never had a general liking for the crab/shrimp heads - and eating raw crab was fairly similar to that delicacy.This was my first time eating raw crab. I wasn't sure what to expect so I came in with zero expectations, but I also walked out unsure of how I felt about the meal.I came here with a party of 4. Since it was our first time, we tried the combo so that we can try both of the different flavors. We ordered a size S combo A for $119. Note that the different sizes of combo refers to the stew size. Everything else comes as 1 count.The service was great. Food came out SO fast, it literally felt like we just waited for 5 mins. As soon as it came out, we dug in. I want to say I did enjoy the soy sauce marinated crab but at the same time also wasn't sure if I liked the flavors. The spicy marinated crab was marinated VERY well and spicy too! Loved that there was definitely a hot kick to it. You forsure need to work to eat this though and unfortunately, I'm not a huge fan of peeling crab/shrimp and really digging deep to find gold. Despite all that, it tasted super fresh!The banchan was exceptionally good, and also refillable. Kimchi was great but honestly felt like I got jipped. It's so thin and hardly had any kimchi pieces - it was like eating kimchi paper, not pancake. It was also smaller than what I expected. I've had better kimchi pancakes.We ordered the spicy crab stew for our stew option. Spicy? No. Crabby? Yes. It had a very good depth of flavor in terms of crab. I wish there was more garneses/veggies but the crab pretty much filled up the pot. I didn't get to eat the crab from the pot but I was told by my boyfriend's parents that it wasn't fresh.To be completely honest, I left feeling so unsatisfied. It wasn't that I wasn't full but I think I needed something that tasted more satisfying. I think this delicacy is something everyone should try but I wouldn't consider this a meal I'd crave and want to eat for dinner. To try and experience different types of cultural food? Definitely. But not something I can expect to eat every month. Also, I felt it was super pricey for what it was even though I know these crabs are imported. I'd prefer to eat omakase sashimi for the price.Update: After reading some reviews, I found out from other yelpers that ordering the combo, the crabs would be significantly smaller than ordering a la carte. The waitress failed to mention that to us...which now makes me realize that portioning sizes like this is incredibly unfair to the customer AND super misleading. Not to mention that most people who order combos expect to have a fair ratio amongst the number of people that the menu stated to feed. If your size M combo is supposed to feed 3, give more ratio of crabs rather than your stew, especially if you know people come to your restaurant to specifically try your raw crab.Warning: Any size combo, whether S, M, or L, all combos only comes with 1 small crab per flavor. That's bogus and definitely not worth the price. Had I known, I would've just ordered a la carte. DON'T ORDER THE COMBO.","4253 W 3rd St Los Angeles, CA 90020",4.4,173,"Korean, Seafood, Soup",$$$ +128,2023-08-13,2023-09-17,Rich Crab,"This restaurant offers a delightful culinary experience, particularly when it comes to their generous and flavorful crab dishes.

First during brunch it is counter service, which you order at a cashier before getting a number and finding a seat.  Well after getting part of my order I was informed they did not have the Stout Pancakes, which I had ordered. Granted it was not on the menu but after I heard the couple in front of me  successfully order them I ordered them as well. Not sure why they didn't address this with me when they brought our the first part of my order, the bacon and bread with butter.When they were looking into the posssible price adjustment for the French toast vs the pancakes they tried to tell me the French toast was more expensive (per their computer) at $24 than the pancakes at $17 and saying they wouldn't charge me the up charge. Well the French Toast on the menu is actually listed as $14. I'm glad I had pics of the menu and a copy of my original e-receipt and after showing it to them they credited me the difference. Weird thing is when they gave me the corrected receipt the French toast rang up as $14. Is it dishonesty or just an honest mistake?The food was good but not amazing.  At the price point for brunch ($50 after tax & tip), it should have been table service with better service over all. Little things like a refill of water you have to get yourself from a community pitcher.  Also to note there is an additional 5% service charge on the bill aside from the gratuity.If this is the service for brunch I can't fathom what it would be like for dinner. I don't plan to return & I regret not going to Jose Andres' restaurant across the street from The Broad for brunch instead.","222 S Hope St Los Angeles, CA 90012",3.9,2414,American (New),$$$ +130,2023-09-15,2023-09-17,Otium,I don't even like to write reviews.

The restaurant features a very rustic and cozy industrial look and I personally loved the lighting of the place. The fireplace in the waiting area before you get seated was a nice touch as well.The food was great as well but there were definitely certain items on the menu that were better than others. For example, I personally wouldn't recommend the duck neck appetizer which we ordered. There was barely any meat on it and it was subpar overall. I would however highly recommend the beef tartare, and lightly recommend the soft shell shrimp as it was good but didn't live up to my expectations. I would say overall the appetizer menu could be a bit better.As for the main items, the gnocchi was phenomenal and some of the best we've had and the duck breast was very hearty and delicious. We have no complaints there.The drinks we had were good, I would recommend the Otium and more so the teatime gimlet if you want more of a refreshing drink.The service was where the Otium really shined.

Note that it comes diced pickled peppers which give it a really nice subtle kick...not spicy at all for those sensitive to spicy foods.  This was a really solid burger. I  would order it again. The fries however were not that impressive...kinda basic. I expected more from a $26 burger. Other than that, I got to try one of their 3 freshly baked foccacia breads.

We were attracted to the rice flour the store boasted to use, and wanted to compare it to other popular fried chicken chains.We ordered the 20 pcs Ruby Jade (soy garlic) along with the Deokbokki. The chicken was packaged nicely for takeout, with holes for ventilation and radish provided.Upon first bite, first notice was the crunch of the chicken skin, and the unique flavor the rice flour added to the wings. Combined with the tenderness and juiciness of the flesh, we could tell immediately that the wings were cooked with detail and care. The soy garlic flavor was not overwhelming, and at times felt like could use a little more of the garlic flavor for the hardcore garlic lovers.The Deokbokki was a nice and welcome addition to the meal. Not much to say here, except it was a solid dish that provided a little spice to the meal. We did not add the ramen noodles, but would definitely consider it in a future visit.Overall, the chicken was the best I've had in a while, and felt a lot less heavy and greasy than other chicken places do. I wish they allowed 50/50 on flavors, especially with higher wing counts, as I would have definitely wanted to try the Crowing Rooster (Yang Nyum) flavor.

The display featured numerous items, and what really stood out was the fact that many of them were out of their display cases. This allowed visitors to get an up-close look at each item. Note your are not allow to touch the pieces!The attention to detail on these pieces was truly extraordinary. Personally, my favorite part of the exhibit was the evolution of Eevee. Being able to see all three forms of Eevee in one place was a treat for any Pokémon fan! Additionally, the kimonos on display were exquisitely designed, showcasing the rich culture and artistry of Japan.The presence of guards throughout the exhibit ensured that no one touched the items, which is especially important if you have curious kids with you. They also provided reminders about this, which I totally understand.To visit, you'll need to secure a time ticket in advance, which you can easily book on their website. The validation they offer for parking is a nice touch! It comes to $3 for 2 hours. The exhibit took less than a hour.Overall, my experience at Japan House's Pokémon exhibit was a good one. While it may not be the largest exhibit, the quality of the items and the chance to see them up close more than made up for it.

I'd say it wasn't overly crowded, but there was definitely a decent amount of people within the entire time. My friend and I spent roughly an hour in the space, as it only spans two large rooms.That being said, the work that they brought over was absolutely stunning. There's a good mixture of Japanese ceramics/pottery, metal work, fabrics/clothing, and more. I'm aware they're rotating a few pieces from the exhibit and will be stopping by to see what they swap in. There are also a few employees there to watch and make sure not one gets too close to the artwork. They're stern, but not rude about it. Just don't lean over the table line or roping and you'll be fine.It's a small exhibit, but worth the trip. I can't wait to come back!

I presented my reservation email and we were immediately welcomed into the gallery. I'm really grateful that it was a free experience, but I was surprised to see how small the exhibit is. Nevertheless the art they had on display was incredible.The Pokemon x Kogei exhibit is a playful encounters of pokemon and Japanese craft and the amount of details and intricacies that went into every piece displayed is incredible. Staff was also friendly and passion and excited to tell us fun facts about some of the art work as we explored. I could easily recognize the original pokemons but I'm not up to date with all the new ones. It was a fun visit.Then we were off to their Library on the 5th floor of Ovation Hollywood. It was a bit hard to find. At the library staff offered a sampling of matcha tea that was nice and refreshing for a hot summer day. The library was small but still interesting to visit.Nice fun FREE adventure if you are in the area, but it's such a small exhibit I don't know if I recommend it to someone who is coming from far... unless you super love pokemon.

Soy milk tasted rubbery and bland despite the sugar, which is a first.I think it's fun for small businesses to play with traditional menus from time to time, but I didn't think the purple rice and marinated egg was necessary in the rice roll.

To my surprise everything here is extremely affordable, cheap, even!Regrettably, after seeing the food other people got, we did not order any appetizers. I got the Dan Dan noodles which were only $11 and definitely worth more! The noodles were nice chewy texture, and the sauce was smooth, garlicky, slightly spicy and sweet. The peanuts added a great crunch, and the cucumbers provided refreshment and perfect combination with the peanut sauce. I would have liked some more veggies in this dish because it was overall a bit rich; I make a similar dish at home with shredded carrots and bok choy which I think would have made good additions.My dad's wonton soup broth was clean and clear, yet quite flavorful. I enjoyed it in today's cool weather.We finished the meal with the traditional shaved ice with grass jelly (my favorite), little taro and sweet potato rice cakes, red bean, and boba! As a self-proclaimed boba connoisseur I was actually quite impressed with the balls and I bet they have an amazing bobarista in the back! The ice itself was way too sweet for me. As for the texture, it was a bit icy (I'm not sure if Taiwanese shaved ice is supposed to be that way) and not silky soft like Korean bingsu.

Came in expecting to get breakfast, granted I showed up at 11 which is when breakfast service ends and I was told breakfast was no longer being served. After I place my order for Dan Dan Noodles I overheard the manager offer another customer breakfast, didn't make a big deal out of it just sat and waited for my food. My order came out a couple of minutes later so one star for fast service (mind you they gave me no utensils, no napkins, no condiments) but I live literally next door and when I tasted my noodles I'm not lying when I say these noodles were literally still slightly refrigerated/lukewarm. So I do what any normal person would do and went back and asked for another order which they politely agreed to.However, when my food came out the manager asked me if I had ever had the noodles before, to which I replied yes I have. Then she proceeded to try to justify that the noodles are quoted a 10 minute ticket time but that they typically take 2-3 minutes to cook, to which I replied well I don't understand how that applies to this situation because I walked in and ordered to-go and received my food right away. She went on to try to explain that maybe between the time the food was packed and when I ate it got cold. Yet I've had fast food stay hotter over a longer period of time. I explained to her that food should always be served hot, bottom line. She then called me aggressive and hostile, and I said sure I am a little upset because of the aforementioned experience with breakfast as she kept saying ""yeah"" ""uh-huh"" in a very condescending tone.On top of that there was a filthy terry towel in plain sight where they place everyone's to go orders, which I made her aware of and I pointed out how gross and dirty all her furniture was, which she didn't like at all. Her workers then started to harass me and tell me I was being rude. So I apologized and took accountability for my behavior and asked her to do the same about her condescending tone, and she literally told me it was ""in response to my behavior"".Again. WOW.Maybe I was just hangry, but this place has taken a complete nosedive, and I'm pretty sure like I'm most cases it's due to poor management. Went home and had to microwave my noodles Top Ramen style.Good luck and God speed Pine and Crane.Wipe down your furniture but don't leave the dirty towel out for everyone to see once you're done.","1120 S Grand Ave Ste 101 Los Angeles, CA 90015",4.6,420,Taiwanese,$$ +142,2023-09-10,2023-09-17,Pine & Crane DTLA,"Easy to find seating and love the open floor plan and outdoor areas.

The pan fried pork buns were not as juicy as other ones I've tried. I was expecting a lot of hot soup to pour out as a I nibble a piece of the dumpling. The wok tossed eggplant and basil dish was a bit better. It was some good flavors, but I can tell that the eggplant was not soaked enough longer to absorb flavors. Some aspects of the eggplant was blander than other parts. The beef roll was actually the one I was most excited for because I have been craving for it. It was the worse ones I've tried because there is a high cucumber to beef ratio so it felt more like a cucumber roll than a beef roll.The service is pretty good and the ambiance of the place is just like any DTLA establishment.

Unfortunately,  my only gripe is that they use breast meat for the chicken, and it was tough, but I shoved it aside and devoured the rest of the yumminess. The queen d golden special. Lol!  oh, and I loved how the broth was packed separate from everything else.

Not so much. I understand that it's a shared small-plates restaurant, but it breaks my heart a little to pay $28 for really thinly sliced hamachi on a plate the size of my hand.I came here mainly for the duck liver and steak tartare, and both were on point with the seasoning and flavors.- Steak tartare: The spices in this gave the dish an extra crispy kick to it that tartares usually miss out on, which was really nice. The steak itself was really soft and really easy to eat by the spoonful and spreading it on the bread, which was also really good.- Duck liver with chips: Their newest iteration (no longer with bread). I really liked the coconut caramel glaze they put on top, but I wish there was more duck liver so that I don't have to skimp when I'm spreading it on the chips.- Tsukune: A little less seasoned and a little more bouncy/chewy (like fish balls) than I would have liked.- Hamachi: The flavors didn't really meld together for some reason, and I could only taste the hamachi even though it was seasoned with fresh herbs, cucumbers, and aguachile.The cocktails matched up with the better food items really well:- Ratio Me 1:1: The melon foam was slightly too sweet, and needed the drink to balance it out. It was really good still.- That Sh*t Bussin': This tasted like Thai coconut curry in a good way. A tiny bit spiced, coconutty, and satisfyingly savory while still sweet.A note about pacing: I was slightly disappointed that the tsukune came out 1 minute after the steak tartare, so there was a sacrifice in taste when we ate the room-temperature tsukune since we wanted to eat the tartare with the bread when it was still warm and crispy. Maybe I'm being a little picky, but I wanted to taste everything at it's best.A lot of other reviewers would agree by saying that the portions are really small, and I would suggest the restaurant to take in the feedback since their menu changes daily, meaning that things can change based off of customer feedback. Their servers are really nice, but I wish their small business would take in the feedback that I've been seeing quite consistently across reviewers.","3901 W 6th St Los Angeles, CA 90020",4.0,587,"American (New), Cocktail Bars",$$$ +146,2023-08-04,2023-09-17,Here's Looking At You,"This was my first time at this spot.

It was different and tasty, lemon, slightly overpowering, but the pizza was burnt, and there were some parts of it you really couldn't eat. We ordered one of the focaccias as well, and it was way too salty, and possibly a little too oily, although it was fluffy. Lastly, we ordered the Arancini, just be sure to know it has ham in it, which we didn't realize. It's funny for such a nice place that at the bottom of the Arancini plate they put almost Pizza Hut Parmesan sprinkles.

These nifty gadgets aren't just for placing your food orders; they're a gateway to a world of fun and games.Each table has its own ordering device, which not only allows you to select your dishes but also provides a variety of interactive games. You can enjoy mini-games by yourself or challenge other tables. There are even spontaneous group challenges initiated by the restaurant. Plus, there's a chat room where you can strike up conversations with diners at other tables.Now, onto the food. Chi Chi LA offers a tasty menu, though portions are on the smaller side. The flavors are delightful, and I highly recommend trying their flavored Soju cocktails. They come with eye-catching glowing lights and adorable duck decorations that add a cute touch to your dining experience.The only drawback is that engaging in conversation can be a bit challenging due to the continuous sounds of excitement from people playing games all around you. But if you're here for a fun and interactive dining adventure, this might not bother you too much.","610 S Berendo St Los Angeles, CA 90010",4.3,50,"Korean, Bars", +150,2023-09-11,2023-09-17,Chi Chi,"This is a great place to go if you want to just chill and hang out! If you are wanting to have an intimate one on one here, definitely not the place to go though. The music was loud so it was pretty hard to hear each other (what you expect from a popping bar) and they have different music genre depending on the day.We went on a Saturday and it was definitely packed. Make sure to put your name in the waitlist and head to the back to chill until your name is called. You can buy drinks outside as well while you wait.Once inside, the food was okay but the concept is amazing! Being able to play against strangers for drinks was fun. Everything is done through the tablet; from games, extra services like water refills, to the bill.

More meant for singles and party type of people I'd say. Limited parking since it's LA but they do have valet. There was a wait since it was Friday night and it was also consider edm night. Each night is a differ genre but it's listed in the front of the door. There is a back outdoor patio to hang out while you wait to get seated inside and also a bar too. The cool thing about this place is there is a tablet on each table and you can play against another table for drink/bottle of your choice and if you win they pay for it. There are also some claw machine games too!

So you're basically gambling while getting drunk, worst combo ever lolMy advice is to go towards the end of their happy hour, order most of the alcohol for your party (for half the prices) and find a good seat and let the fun beginsThey also host an all-tables interactive game every now and then for everyone to play, and winner gets prizes!Great place to drink, listen to loud music, meet friends","610 S Berendo St Los Angeles, CA 90010",4.3,50,"Korean, Bars", +150,2023-08-26,2023-09-17,Chi Chi,"BIG FAT FAIL!I wanted to try this place since it had great ratings. Idk where the ratings came from. The menu for food was limited, and so were the drinks. The food was edible but nothing to rave about.

This establishment is basically catered to the younger crowd...Now... onto the staff. The staff here are the worst ever. Rude rude rude... I can't believe someone would hire such rude people. If it's our first time, please take the time to explain to us how to order. If there is a discrepancy on the bill, be courteous enough to respond without attitude. I asked what the 16.99 for Seoro was for on my bill. They said it was for games. First off, 1 game should not be 16.99 and Seoro is soju... So I paid for a bottle of soju I never got.

I usually prefer the garden although inside you can watch the kitchen do their magic. Having said that, if you join Rosaline for a meal be prepared to be sitting as close t your fellow diners as you can imagine, and participate in side bar conversations around you as they get louder and louder with the drinks progressing.I love their bar but find their cocktails to be unimaginative and bland. Even classic cocktails are not properly represented so I prefer to skip them.Food-wise, given the Peruvian theme of the restaurant there are tons of ceviches. Some are nice, but the ceviche crocante for example is pretty poor and delivered like a surrealist painting where the artist dropped a bunch of ingredients otherwise intended for different appetizers on a large plate. The dressing and zest in it was also under- and over-powering at the same time. I also disliked the coquettes but mostly because of their generalized unseasonedness.The octopus - despite traditionally a favorite dish of mine, here probably wins the spot of worst-in-town. It was overcooked but not in a chewy way; rather, it was an extra dose mushy. The tentacle had similar texture to Haribo gummy bears, so we left 2/3 of it.The scallops were probably the best dish of the bunch, and I thought the toasted quinoa on top with the sauce worked really well. Though again as before, they were a bit overcooked as well.In the end, while I have at previous visits enjoyed the family style paella, I would probably stop going to Rosaline. I had quite the underwhelming experience, service, and ended up getting a check with 20% tip automatically added, so maybe that's why service is a bit low-effort type.","8479 Melrose Ave West Hollywood, CA 90069",3.9,1131,"Peruvian, Cocktail Bars",$$$ +155,2023-08-27,2023-09-17,Rosaline,"I love Peruvian food, I got to know it well in the 6 years I lived there.

Left more than half of this plate, I didn't take anymore home and expressed to our waitress it was so insanely Smokey it was inedible for both my partner and I. For a $49 dish I thought it was insulting, let alone the lack of care and attention when asked about the dish and informed our waitress that it was insanely smokey and rough on the palate. This occurred Friday 8/26 and our reservation was for 6:30pm, Rosaline was not busy by this time.The drinks were good, the paiche (jungle trout) was pretty good, and the atmosphere was lovely... I enjoyed basking under all the plants. However, the chaufa was rough, not sure if I could return here looking to enjoy an authentic Peruvian dish, and I'd humbly suggest the chef be informed of this if he wasn't the night we dined there.","8479 Melrose Ave West Hollywood, CA 90069",3.9,1131,"Peruvian, Cocktail Bars",$$$ +155,2023-08-25,2023-09-17,Rosaline,Best paella spot!!!

The grilled octopus was a tiny serving for the price. Paella was not as traditional as other options I've had in California but definitely saved the meal for us in terms of flavor and portions; but it took about 50 minutes.

A few of the sides were really solid too. The protein dishes are more substantial and thereby best to go in groups and share. Be prepared to spend a bit.

We had a ton of leftovers.. for sure only needed one of the protein dishes, but still happy we tried both. If you had to do one, try the short rib if it's your first time. Potatoes and tomatoes were great. Bings were good, just a bit pricey for what it is. Oysters were very average.1) short rib (pre-order needed): definitely the star of the show! Smoked bone in, carved table side. Great flavor and quality bbq. Leftover carvings were used to then make fried rice. Accoutrements were pretty average. Expensive at $235, but does feed 4-5. Recommend for a special occasion if it's your first time!2) smoked bo ssam (pork shoulder): really great flavor, smokey and sweet. To me it was like high quality pulled pork with asian inspired flavors. Good for sharing.3) crispy potatoes: perfect pairing for the proteins to add some carbs. We ordered two of these4) heirloom tomatoes: super fresh and sweet, balanced perfectly with the sesame vinaigrette. They served this dish as appetizer, would have preferred to have this with the meat to help cut the fat a bit.5) bings: had the butter/honey and the ricotta/compote.

I have been there a total of three times and I can tell one thing for sure is the consistency in the good service and ambiance. Everybody is very friendly and accommodating. I remember arriving early my first time and I was given a nice seat m at the bar where I ordered one of my favorite lemon ginger shiso mocktails before my party arrived.I also remember every one of our servers being very knowledgeable about the menu and being helpful with what to choose in terms of cocktails, appetizers, entrées, and desserts. The ambience from the open floor plan makes it very interactive and lively with all the tables filled with people, and sometimes close enough where you can have conversations with people next to you. We remember talking to our neighbor and sharing ideas over which dessert to share and I found that to be super fun and memorable.A number of things stand out from the menu at Majordomo. Off the top of my head I can confidently say that the Bing bread (or Chinese flatbread) is one of the most unique types of bread I've ever tried. We have ordered it every time and it's never disappointed. It's very difficult to choose something other than the butter and truffle honey but I hope that one day I can muster up the courage to try the other sides it comes with.The mushroom fried rice is a delicious entree with a very cool presentation as the server cracks the crusted layer of the rice and mixes it in front of you. Very flavorful.We had a subpar experience last time when we ordered the wagyu steak and did not at all have real wagyu steak in front of us. It was one of the worst experiences we've had with steak before. The meat was extremely chewy - so much that we needed to cut them up into diced cubes to be able to enjoy them. It would have been a choking hazard had we tried to eat them in the slices that had arrived in. Horrible experience. We told the server who was very empathetic and relayed the message to the chef. We got our cocktails taken care of. We will never order it again which was a shame since the marination was delicious.I had been told multiple times by servers in my prior visits that the chickpea mac and cheese is their popular one. We decided to order it and it was actually just alright. Nothing to write home about.The kimchi pasta was a decent plate which was taken off their menu the last time. The fries and steak in my past visits were also much better.If you're looking for something decent, you won't be disappointed here.

Restaurant,"In the ever-echoing chambers of my mind, the eternal question reverberates, ""What the hell am I in the mood for?"" As I sift through the tapestry of tastes I've encountered, the sultry allure of Mexican beckons. Tacos from a street vendor? The hearty embrace of a burrito? Or perhaps the underrated charm of a torta? But then, a voice, dripping with sarcasm, chimes in, ""Sure, but which Mexico are you talking about?"" It's a gentle reminder of the vast culinary landscape of Mexico, divided into seven distinct regions: Norteño, Bajacaliforniano, Chipas, Jaliscense, Yucateco, Veracruzano, and Oaxaqueño. Each with its own heartbeat, its own soul. Today, my culinary compass pointed towards tlayudas - Oaxaca's misunderstood masterpiece, often dubbed the ""Oaxacan Pizza.""Tlayuda Los Angeles, a place where the art of tlayuda-making is revered, was my chosen sanctuary. I settled on their ""Tlayuda Supreme,"" a symphony of flavors on an expansive toasted corn tortilla canvas, adorned with bean puree, fresh greens, and a trinity of meats - Tasajo beef, cesina pork, and the fiery chorizo.But let's get one thing straight - calling this a pizza is like calling a Stradivarius a fiddle. It's closer in spirit to a tostada or an open-faced taco. The tlayuda I had was a revelation. A dish steeped in Oaxacan tradition, its foundation is a tortilla, crisped to perfection. It's then painted with refried black beans, layered with greens, and crowned with Oaxacan cheese and a medley of grilled meats. A splash of salsa, a sprinkle of fresh herbs, and you're on a journey. Some might fold it, letting the cheese melt in a warm embrace, while others, like me, prefer it open, in all its glory. And to wash it down? A gulp of mezcal or, in my case, a refreshing mint cucumber lemonade.So, the next time the siren song of Mexican food calls, ask yourself, ""Which corner of Mexico am I yearning for?"" Today, it was Oaxaqueño, with its tantalizing tlayuda. And the warmth of Tlayuda Los Angeles? It felt like coming home to a family I never knew I had. Pure magic.","5450 Santa Monica Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90029",4.6,858,Mexican,$$ +164,2023-09-04,2023-09-17,Tlayuda L.A. Restaurant,"This restaurant is such a gem!

I originally thought the portions for the french toast were a little small for the price, but it was surprisingly filling. I would definitely recommend this for a brunch meal.

The hollandaise is seasoned well, the eggs were perfect, and they all sit on a Texas toast which really adds to the flavor and allows you to soak up the egg. We also order Caramel Lattes which I would highly recommend, the Avocado Toast as a share plate which was fantastic due to the labneh below the avocado, and also the Berry Pancakes, which were a hit as well.Overall one of my favorite breakfast spots in LA.

Often times above said crust goes toppings and cheese, then a large heaping of sauce. Given the sauce, I was most excited for this. But because the crust was so thick, I felt that the other elements were not only out of order, but lacking in amount.

I don't know if they changed the cooks or if it was busy so they didn't really focus on timing but it was not good at all. I got the salmon and shrimp plate. My salmon was beyond dry, ridiculously dry. I could tell as soon as I opened the container. The salmon was hard in certain pieces, it wasn't burnt but very very over cooked. The plating was very nice but it was difficult to eat the salmon because of the dryness and hard pieces. I've never had this issue except for the last 2xs that I visited here. And I always get the same thing and both times I was very disappointed.It's disheartening because I spend $100 there easily every time I go and I expect to get quality food for spending that amount every time.

The scallop ""ceviche"" was overly salty and lacked the usual acidity, and the cheesy black truffle risotto, while rich in flavor, was also heavy on the salt. The main, a tiny strip steak, was tough and bland.Service was attentive, but there were moments when the timing felt off - my server kept asking my opinion of the food while I was still chewing the first bite, making it rather hard to provide immediate feedback.Another oddity was that their tasting menu dishes seemed to be taken directly from their a la carte menu, without a package discount. Had I known this I would've chosen a different set. And the absence of tap water meant an extra $8 and change for bottled.**That's including their ""5% kitchen appreciation charge"" which was annoying back when restaurants had their COVID surcharges, and it's still annoying now.

I'll never know. I called ahead to get a reservation for 4, only to have us wait over 2 hours in the heat, on the sidewalk. We looked forward to trying their food, so we were as patient as we could be. Every time I checked in with the front hosts, I was met with poor attitude from the host/owner. Servers avoided eye contact with everyone and did not engage any inquiries - they did look overworked. Phrases like ""We're doing our best, but understand we don't have enough seats"" are acceptable enough, but what isn't acceptable is confirming a reservation they never intended to honor. When I confronted the host with this conflict, he angrily asked me what I'd like him to do, and I asked if we could be seated soon since we waited a long time. This request exasperated him - I understand the stress, but again, if he doubted he could seat us at all, he could've said so in the beginning when we first checked in, and rejected the reservation request over the phone even earlier - instead of telling me to show up on time and have our party wait for hours outside. After this rude encounter, we left soon after and went to Barrio Fiesta, which IS a solid and legendary Filipino eatery in Glendale.

I sat at the bar solo and the lady that sat me wasn't the most warm person. They're more interested in following their own rules, than taking care of new clientele and marking sure they're happy and wanna come back. The server was polite but tried to force a couple of stupid rules on me. I told him that I m gonna order a couple of apps then I ll see if I wanna order more food. He said they prefer if I order everything right away, which I know it would help the kitchen but honestly it's my first time, so not sure of the items I ordered or the portion. Then he grabs my menu after I just finished telling him that I might order more stuff. The answer is we grab menus after taking the order, which doesn't make any sense. Then I asked him if I can order stuff to go to my partner at home, and the answer was that the sandwich is the only thing they do to go. A whole bunch of stupid rules that don't make no sense.  Do these guys understand that being accommodating is a skill that's needed to stay in this industry. Just weird pretentious spot. Too bad even though the  food wasn't traditional Portuguese, it was good and full of flavor that's why I gave them 3 stars. I still added tip on top of the 20% they added, coz I don't believe in stiffing severs, it's their bread n butter. But in all honesty the service is subpar.

The ""breakfast potatoes"" looked like round black rocks & were almost as hard, & had some other soft, mushy types of vegetables mixed in. The sausage was dry & hard & the bacon, which I'd asked for very crisp, was like a soft, greasy sponge (even my dog wouldn't eat it) & the eggs, which I'd asked for medium well, we so undone, they ran ALL over the plate. None of it was hot in the meaningful sense of the word. I enjoy any fast-food restaurant breakfast much more.  At least the food is always fresh & hot & the price is within the range of common sense.

Let's begin by Saying earning a Michelin star is no ordinary occurrence. Having three Michelin stars makes you absolutely unique and extraordinary.You have earned the title and respect, because for you, it's about passion.You don't believe in cutting corners when it comes to the highest quality ingredients. You believe that if one must deliver the best experience and food quality it must be done right or you don't do it at all.My family and I had a wonderful experience at the museum corridor near Wilshire and La Brea. We used Yelp to search ramen restaurants in that area and Kazan populated first.Noodles really didn't become a stable food in Japan until the 1800s. If you truly want to taste an authentic Japanese ramen house you found the place, no need to fly to Tokyo anymore.Oh boy, what a wonderful experience. As you can see by the photographs the restaurant is a bit small but Gosh when it comes to the taste of the fresh soba thin noodles ,the distinctive flavors of the light broth, and to your tongue's desire you feel the tender texture of the chashu pork,. Now, you realized you are in Ramen's heaven.We ordered two Signature #1 dish, and one Lei ramen. Absolutely, delicious. Something I personally found interesting the design of the serving bowls. As you are being served you don't realized that the size portion of this soup is rather large, but it looks small.Trust me it's feels you-up because the bowl has a unique design that keeps a lot of the noodles at the bottom of the bowl.The restaurant is absolutely clean, the staff were friendly and professional.Last, this is a secret, if you want the best time to peacefully enjoy your meal and savor every ingredient come around 4pm.

This time we were sitting in the front patio since there was a private party in the back patio. Honestly, both patios are beautiful. We started with couple of drinks and Cesare salad and mixed green salad. I thought the salads were ordinary, nothing to brag about. Maybe I should try a different salad next time. for main course, two of us ordered the Burrata e Aragosta, it was very delicious but only two small piece of lobster in it and the rest was rice and creamy sauce. As I said very tasty but for that price, we both thought they should have put more lobster in it. For those of you who had read my last review on this restaurant, last time I was there, I had ordered the same thing but asked our server to substitute the rice with any kind of pasta if possible and he said yes but he didn't mention anything about the extra charge for substitution and brought me pasta with lobster in a creamy sauce and the price was almost twice as much which I noticed only when he bought us the check, from $39 jumped to $64 which I thought for a substitute, if the price is jumping that much, you MUST let the customer know in advance. Of course, $39 was the old price for this item and now I think it is $54 which is too much for what you get. My friends ordered Salmon and Branzino. She was happy with salmon, the other one with Branzino said it was just ok. for dessert, I ordered Affagato which was basically scoop of vanilla ice cream with espresso over it and a piece of biscotto. It was good if you like ice cream.  The owner also sent us Dolcetto de limone because of the last time messed up which was a nice gesture from him but unfortunately none of us liked it but if you like the lemon taste, you probably like it but non of us did. When we got the check, first we didn't notice that 22% tip was already added to our total and we  were ready to leave tips on top of that but one of our friends who checked the check noticed it was added. I could see adding the tips automatically for party of 6 and larger but I think even if you are going to add tips automatically, should be 18 to 20 % not more than that and leave it to customers if they want to tip more. Now, do I go back to this place, probably yes because of the beautiful ambiance and honestly my food was tasty but over priced for what I got.

I had not been there for a long time but I remember it used to be one of my favorite restaurants because of the good food and also the violin player they had going to each table and play a beautiful music. So, I called the place to make the reservation and asked them if they still had the violin player, they said not any more. I decided to still make the reservation since I really liked their beautiful patio. When we arrived we were seated right away. It was a little bit cold to sit out and they offered the back patio and gave us the option to take either one. The other couple that we were meeting suggested the back patio which was as gorgeous as the front one if not more. The service was good and we got our drinks right away. My friend ordered Bucatini all' Amatriciana $26, our husbands both ordered Pappardelle al Cinghiale $28 and I ordered Burrata e Aragosta $39 which is Carnaroli Rice, Lobster, Burrata Cream.I thought well, I like the lobster and creamy sauce but not the rice so I asked our waiter if I could substitute any kind of pasta for the rice. He said yes, I could get it with Pappardelle, lobster and truffle sauce. I said ok any kind of pasta is fine as long as I am still getting the lobster with white creamy sauce. We got our foods and they were all good. Mine was in a very rich creamy sauce which was little bit too heavy on my stomach but I should admit that it was one of the most delicious dish I have ever had. When we got the bill, we noticed that one of the items were $64 which was more than any thing we saw on the menu and none of us ordered something for $64. We thought that must be a mistake and when we asked our waiter he said that was for my food. That was the only reason that I gave it 4 stars. I didn't think for substituting rice with pasta the price of my food jumps from $39 to $64 and I think we should have been told about such a big price change by our waiter. Later on I called the restaurant and told the manager that in other restaurants when you substitute something they will let you know right away even if the difference is couple of dollars so don't you think when the price changes to twice as much you should definitely let the customer know? He explained that this was a different dish than the other one because had more lobster with truffle sauce ( I just asked for a substitute not a different dish) but he also agreed that we had to be told about the big price change. He was very nice and understanding and said next time you are here you will have your drinks and couple of desserts on the house.

I ordered 1 wagyu beef, 2 pork belly, and 1 bacon wrapped mushroom skewer plus the spicy rice and spicy noodles. Cost over $50 with 15% tip. They snuck in a service fee, for what I don't know. I didn't like that. They charge quite enough already, thank you.The food was the worst. Every single skewer was bad. The wagyu beef was tough and chewy. I've had proper wagyu and this was far from that. The pork belly skewers tasted like overcooked pork from somewhere other than the belly. There was none of the tasty fat I would expect from a proper pork belly. The bacon wrapped mushroom was chewy, tasteless and boring.The spicy noodles and spicy rice were the only good things. Overall, quite a waste of money, and time, as it took about 30 minutes to get.

Easy parking nearby if you don't mind the paid lots, which we grabbed a lot off Melbourne Ave behind the 13th Church of Christ.On a hot summer day, the outside seating was still nice with a breeze. The umbrella gives you more than enough shade too.Service was fab. Real nice and checked in at appropriate times. Food came out on time too.Food we ordered:+ Oysters: Good quality, although my boyfriend felt it was a tad salty but I thought it was perfect when balanced with the sauce and lemon.+ Arancini: The truffle didn't stand out as much as I hoped, but still a really good snack with a lovely soft inside.+ Maitake: Rich and creamy in a good way. Nice mix of buffalo sauce with a side of ranch. Carrots were nicely done, with still a small bit of crunch to it.+ Gnocchi: On the richer end with the sour cream. If you want a really soft pasta, go for this one.+ Summer Arrabiata: I really liked most of this dish. Perfect pairing of squash and baby corns for texture and al dente cavatelli. Unfortunately for myself, I'm terrible with spicy food and I didn't realize this would have a kick to it. I wish the spice didn't overpower the dish as much, but some would probably like it.+ Panna cotta: We had a panna cotta with mango slices on top. I really liked this as a lighter dessert. For those of you very familiar with dim sum, this actually reminds me of Chinese mango pudding... #iykyk.On a last fun note, the bathrooms were nice in that there were two individual rooms, but my one complaint is the lighting situation. I get having a vibe and there was a dim light over the sink, but the toilet side of the room was awfully dark without any lighting. I could barely see where the toilet was and couldn't figure out the light switches as they were taped up as if I wasn't supposed to touch it. Ended up using my phone flashlight to go. Either I'm dumb and couldn't figure out the lights or they are trying to set up a very different mood that I couldn't appreciate for a simple bathroom situation.

It's aiming for an Indian fine dining experience: the presentation, service, ambiance, and prices match that. However, if you just want some amazing Indian food or a new spot to go when you're craving some amazing Indian food, this probably isn't it. The place has good service, but it's the annoying good type (always pestering you, but on top of it) vs the predictive great service (not sure if people will get what I mean or relate). We tried several of the dishes and drinks here, see the breakdown:4/5 - Baar Baar Butter Chicken: a solid butter chicken dish with good flavors and great presentation, but very small portions with no sides of rice or anything. ($32)4/5 - Paneer Pinwheel: a delicious fine dining take on a classic North Indian dish and a nice presentation, but same small portions as the other main dish. ($32)5/5 - Mango Ghewar: an amazing mango forward dessert with delicious fresh mango cubes on the inside, looks gorgeous and tastes even better, definitely the best thing on the menu! ($18)3.5/5 - Ragi Brownie: a really beautiful dessert that is very chocolate forward, but not super sweet. However, it's disappointing in comparison to a phenomenal dessert like the Mango Ghewar. ($15)4/5 - Dahi Puri: a solid light, but refreshing appetizer. Cool presentation, perfect for two people and one of their better apps. ($14)3/5 - Saffron Rice: pretty standard rice side that is enough to share amongst 2 to 3 people. ($6)2/5 - Cheese & Jalapeno Naan: pretty mediocre, even the presentation wasn't that nice, and worth it for what you get. The regular naan seems to be a better option if you're ordering naan (seems like it's a larger size, 1/2 the price, and already cut into 4 pieces as well). ($12)Drinks:4.5/5 - DDLJ: a great modern twist on a tequila sunrise inspiration. A good mix of tangy and lightly sour flavors. ($17)3.5/5 - Rockstar: not listed on their drink menu, it's a seasonal specialty drink that features rum and is a twist on a tropical favorite.

Our reservation was for an early slot, so we were seated pretty promptly. The decor is really interesting - definitely different from other restaurants in the area. What really impressed me was the timing of the service - everything, from the food to the drinks, arrived swiftly but not uncomfortably fast.The dining experience here is family-style, with a recommendation to order a variety of shared plates and entrees, which are served as they are prepared. For our shared plates, we chose the dahi puri, cauliflower 65, Kashmiri duck (birria) taco, and the chicken malai tikka. Among these, the dahi puri and the duck taco stood out as my favorite bites of the entire meal. They were unique, refreshing, and incredibly flavorful. However, the one disappointment of the evening was the chicken malai tikka, which seemed a bit lackluster and reminded me strangely of a bland chicken alfredo.Moving on to the entrees, we opted for the butter chicken, short ribs, and lamb shank roast, along with garlic naan and saffron rice. Each dish was sensational in its own right, but the lamb shank roast stole the show with its tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture.As a side note, if you're in the mood for a unique and tropical-flavored cocktail, do yourself a favor and order the Sholay. It'll transport you to a distant paradise and complement your meal perfectly.In summary, our impromptu visit turned out to be the perfect shared meal. With prompt service, attentive and helpful staff, a diverse array of flavorful dishes, and a standout cocktail, this restaurant is definitely worth considering for a memorable dining experience. I would just plan to skip the chicken malai tikka and savor the other delectable options they have to offer.","705 W 9th St Los Angeles, CA 90015",4.4,115,Indian, +192,2023-09-11,2023-09-17,Baar Baar,"We went for dinner on Sunday night at the recommendation of a local friend.

Perhaps it was just an off day, or this just is how their food is, but I found myself very underwhelmed by the quality of the food.Everything felt like it had a distinct lack of flavor. The spices were barely there on some items and it felt like for an Indian restaurant, barely anything tasted like Indian. We ordered a large variety of dishes and maybe only two stood out as decent.Then to cap it all off, we ordered the Masala Chai at the evening and it came out as basically brown water. It was heavily diluted and has no flavor. Our waiter was kind enough to see that there was something wrong with it and removed it from our bill.So sad to say, I don't think I'll be coming back.

As context, I hate comparing restaurants especially when I've had authentic Parisian/French cuisine in France before, but I accidentally began comparing as soon as I saw the menu. Thankfully, the dinner did NOT disappoint.We began with some drinks and the first selection we made was ""Passionate Affair"" which was absolutely PACKED with flavor and fun bubbles. We ended up getting another because we were pleasantly surprised at how well the flavors sat on our palate. After, the appetizers made our way to the table.We decided in the Bone Marrow and Escargot. Now, honestly, this was my first time trying bone marrow and I was not a fan of the texture, however I can not comment much more on the effectiveness of the dish. There was flavor, and provided some smokiness and char-like flavor provided by the toast that accompanied the dish, but again was just not a fan of my first experience with bone marrow. Now as far as the escargot goes, I have tried them in Paris and was very anxious to taste AFA's take on the classic! Very simply, DELICIOUS. The plate is smooth on the palate, packed with a calming creamy flavor that reminded me of a flavor profile almost like a pesto, served on top of a baked potato. The serving size was also appropriate for an appetizer and did exactly what it was meant to do to warm us up for the main course. Simply could have had many more of these dishes but then... the mains came!We decided on Moms beef bourguignon and the Lamb shank tagine. Both meat selections absolutely melted in our mouths and really had their own strengths. However, we did prefer the Beef to the lamb because it had just a bit more intensity and punch that we were looking for, than the lighter, more delicate lamb with vegetables. It really just comes down to how heavy of a dish you are looking for and on another day I could see myself selecting the lamb. The pasta, made in house, was a good compliment to the beef due to its thickness and smooth contrast to a more layered protein. There was much more beef to pasta, which we had no problem with.Lastly was desert! Creme brûlée is one of those options that's simple and delicious when done right, but also has much potential to be bland, and just not up to par. It tasted exactly how you would imagine the great dessert to taste, with flavor, creaminess, and a perfectly crisped topping. No surprises, just very well executed.Overall, I have no complaints with my experience at the restaurant. Parking was accessible (a lot just behind the restaurant), there was welcoming service from the moment we walked in to the second we stepped out of the door, the environment was hip, romantic, and lended itself to conversation and liveliness, and just overall photogenic.

We chose this place for my birthday dinner, and it exceeded all expectations. The attention to detail in every aspect, from the table settings to the decor, creates a true oasis-like ambiance.The food at DiDi is simply delicious, and there are a few standout dishes we highly recommend: Tuna Tartare, Shrimp Ceviche, Honey Glazed Tiger Prawns, Spring rolls, and Whole Fried Snapper. They were all incredibly flavorful and well-prepared. For dessert, we indulged in the Vietnamese coffee crème brûlée, and the flavor was divine, although one side seemed slightly overdone for our taste.What truly sets DiDi apart is its exceptional staff. From the welcoming hostess to the knowledgeable servers, every interaction was a delight. If you're lucky enough to have Michael as your server, you're in for a treat. His attentive service won't disappoint.DiDi Vietnamese restaurant is a must-visit for any occasion.

After a $150+ meal, I left disappointed and did not finish one plate of food, I'm Vietnamese and the fish sauce wings were dry and not flavorful like other spots I've tried, the shrimp toast was super heavy and greasy, the sesame noodles were okay at best. For being ""known"" for the prawns, I was also disappointed.

We were in town and made a reservation since we know it's a pretty popular place.We got their before our reservation time, the host informed us to wait a little. So we waited...and waited...and waited, then it was about 15 mins after our reservation time. This whole time we were standing next to a table of 4 that was EMPTY from the time we got into the restaurant. We all joked with each other that they will seat us there.. and guess what, they did.After getting seated, we were handed a menu and I was pretty underwhelmed. It was more Vietnamese fusion/inspired rather than authentic Vietnamese food. (Not a huge deal but just wanted to point that out)Overall, the vibes of the restaurant was good.. the drinks were doable, they have certain tastes to them (just make sure you know what each ingredient in the drinks taste like before ordering).I don't think I would come back to this restaurant, it's pretty small and the food was not memorable.

I had recently just traveled to vietnam as well so I was excited for the nha Trang beach club cocktail but wasn't too excited when sipping on it. I do recommend getting the prawn and beef carpaccio, if you go. They were delicious but just felt overpriced in my opinion. The crab fried rice had more shell than crab meat. Overall, I really really wanted to like this place but sadly my experience is preventing me from wanting to go back. I still highly recommend everyone to try this place and experience it themselves. This is just mine.Tip: the host won't mention it, but if you don't have a reservation and they're fully book, ask to sit at the bar as it is first come first serve. But be careful, my friend and I sat there, but it felt like a splash zone with the bartenders mixing the drink.

Made a reservation for 9:15pm however was not seated till 9:45pm. What is the point of reservations when your still required to wait way pass your reservation time.1/10 for the food. Definitely not worth it for the price and portion of the food. For what your paying, definitely could get more for your buck.1) Honey Glazed Tiger Prawns ($24)- Aside from how big the Tiger prawns are, literally deep fried in batter and that was it. The only glazed was on the plate for presentation and nothing on the prawns. No flavoring what so ever. Had to cut the Tiger prawns to dip into the glazed that was on the plate.2)Chicken Wings ($23)- Fish sauce chicken wings were soooo salty, couldn't even eat it alone. Nothing special but that it had fish sauce flavoring.3)Lobster Curry ($44)- Loved that we got chunks of fried lobster meat in the curry, however no curry flavor and just coconut flavoring.4) Whole Fried Snapper ($64)- Definitely could've gotten a lot more for the price. But one of the better dishes they serve. Fish was well fried. However, the sweet and sour sauce seems to have been the one straight out the bottle.5)Hot Sesame. Noodle ($24)-Noodles was super bland and had no flavoring even with the chili and garlic crunch. Garlic crunch was over fried and bitter. Noodles was under cooked and this dish was super disappointing.(No picture)6)Crab Fried Rice ($25)- Literally this dish was not worth it. Portion was super small, and you could taste it literally was just fried rice. No crab flavoring or even crab meat in the fried rice. Super salty.Lastly, got charge 4% for entertainment fee. When we asked what the charge was we were told ""we have a DJ in house Friday night and Saturday night.""  Come on DIDI. Having a DJ is not the customers request. Shouldn't charge customers for something your establishment decides to have.Overall, it was an experience definitely not worth the money.Everything with the entertainment fee included $232.32.

Here's my 4/5 Yelp review:Food: 4/5I tried the Tamarind Ginger Mocktail, Shrimp Prawns, Snapper, and Hot Noodles. The food was delicious, and the flavors were on point. My only minor gripe is that the noodles could have been a bit hotter. Everything else on the plate was served at the perfect temperature, and the taste was fantastic.Ambiance: 5/5DiDi's ambiance deserves a solid 5/5. The atmosphere was inviting, and it provided a great backdrop for a memorable dining experience. It's clear they pay attention to detail in creating a welcoming space.Price: $$$/$$$$While the pricing is on the higher side, it's justified by the quality of the food, the fantastic ambiance, and the music. DiDi offers an all-around great dining experience that's worth the occasional splurge.Customer Service (Dawn): 5/5Dawn, our server, was exceptional. She was charismatic, knowledgeable about the menu, funny, and helped curate our order to perfection. Her presence added to the overall enjoyment of our evening.Parking: $$$Parking was a bit of a shocker. $15 inside their structure is reasonable, but $40 on the street in front is quite steep. It's something to consider when planning your visit.In summary, DiDi is a TikTok find that's definitely worth trying. With mouthwatering food, an inviting atmosphere, and exceptional customer service from Dawn, it's a dining experience that leaves a positive impression. While the location and parking could be better, I'd still give it a solid 4/5 and would happily return for another visit.","755 N La Cienega Blvd West Hollywood, CA 90069",3.8,98,Vietnamese, +195,2023-09-11,2023-09-17,Di Di,"This place is AMAZING!Been here twice in a matter of ten days.Their glazed honey shrimp are literally the best thing on the menu.Shrimp toast could be better.

Surprisingly the Nguyễn in Rome was our favorite drink. It looked to be the strongest but was actually the sweetest. Tropic thunder and nha trang beach club were a little bit too sour in our opinion and we were expecting a more milky or refreshing taste. We ordered the tiger prawns, bo luc lac, banh xeo, lobster curry, and Vietnamese coffee creme brûlée. All the food was delicious and full of flavor. The tiger prawns were good and in a sweet sauce. The bo luc lac was really delicious. The meat was very nicely marinaded and the beef was cooked perfectly. It was served on a bed of greens that was also very good and light. The banh xeo was very crispy almost like a taco. The lobster curry was the star of the show and served with delicious flavored rice. The creme brûlée was good but it would've been even better cold.

Main event Katsu sando at the forefront, perfectly flavorful chicken sandwiched in between bread with cabbage and mayo; perhaps I'd go a bit easier on the mayo but the flavor is all there so I'm not complaining!Having not been a fan of pickles my whole life, I proceeded with caution as I said ""might as well try them"". What followed was the serving of pickles that single handedly made me a fan of pickled food as a whole!

And they certainly did not. Everything at this place was done tastefully and elegantly. The entry way is beautifully lit with terracotta lanterns and the terrace has a beautiful classy yet warm vibe to it. This place screams pretentious but it is surprisingly not - wait staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. Now the food. Everything on the menu sounded appetizing and since there was only two of us, we couldn't order too many different things. We were torn between ordering a few items to get a feel of the flavors or ordering the whole fish and just enjoying it. We went for the whole fish and we were glad we didn't order anything along with it. The rockfish arrived in a tasteful stainless steel platter, and was filleted in the kitchen and sliced in the platter without losing its ""whole fish"" look. It sat on a bed of a medley of fresh salad veggies that maintained their crisp consistency despite sitting under a hot fish. Aka. They were not soggy. The seasoning of the fish was perfect, and the herbs mixed in with the spring veggies really lifted the flavors and made everything taste so light, smooth and fresh, while maintaining some richness thanks to the boldness of the olive oil in the sauce/dressing.

Although the address is on Third Street (the same address as Yunomi Handroll), the entrance is actually on Traction Avenue, between Wurstküche and Loqui. Along the back wall is a long banquette with two-tops, while a massive refectory table sits in the front for shared dining. Around 5:30 P.M. on a Tuesday, there was only one other party of two; leaving around 7:00 P.M., there were maybe four parties total (one of which was that same party that was there when I arrived). The meal starts with a finger bowl to soak the little napkin pellet, and after a flashback to Melissa McCarthy in ""Spy,"" you're off to the races.The menu has a large selection of Japanese and Japanese-style craft beers, but the prices are high (as is common with imported Japanese suds), so I decided to try one of their drinks based on shōchū, a neutral spirit that is generally around 25% ABV and the Japanese analog to soju. (They only have a beer-and-wine license, so no Toki highballs here.) The Ginger Lemonade High was made with gari ginger, the pickled ginger served alongside sushi (an odd choice), and the advertised mint was nowhere to be found. The big wad of gari and ice took up a lot of real estate in the glass, and, for $9, it was rather disappointing, and I switched to draft Sapporo after that.Taberu lists its kushiyaki as ""Yasai Maki,"" translating to ""vegetable rolls"" -- even when there are no vegetables involved. Servers come over with a large box of uncooked skewers for diners to peruse, like a yakitori version of a dessert cart. (Between the dim lighting and forest of identification twigs, it's close to impossible to see anything in that box.) They have some unique varieties, although the most creative aren't necessarily the best. I made the mistake of cutting the chile relleno with the knife provided, and the ground pork chili filling oozed out everywhere; it was impossible to eat with chopsticks. It was tasty but a ridiculous mess. The shiso and gari rolled with pork belly was surprisingly bland, as was the bundle of green onions wrapped in pork belly. The tsukune (chicken meatballs) were tasty, but I would have preferred the traditional sweet soy glaze over shredded Parmesan, and three smaller meatballs over the two large ones. My favorites were the more traditional skewers: yakitori, beef (""yakiniku""), and okra wrapped in pork belly, which is probably my favorite kushiyaki ever. The kushiyaki are served with a curry-like dry spice blend that is very tasty, though it can overwhelm the flavors.The gyōza are made in-house and probably the second-best examples in L.A. after the reigning champions about a mile south at Afuri. They are unique in their shape, which resemble a taquito rather than the well-known crescent shape. I did miss the traditional tare sauce. (As with the skewers, they recommended I slather the gyōza in chili oil.) The karaage was also excellent, with five plump, flavorful pieces of dark meat in a powdery, tatsuta-age breading. I ended up taking most of the gyōza and karaage home, especially because I had to save room for the hōjicha pudding. Hōjicha is green tea that is roasted in a pot over charcoal, and it has a nutty, toasty flavor. The Japanese are master pudding makers, and this version, which is just slightly sweet, creamy, and slightly tannic, is delicious. As full as I was, I could've devoured a half-dozen of those tiny little puddings. It was the star of the meal, hands down.My experience at Taberu wasn't perfect, but it was definitely positive. There are many things I did not get to sample that I want to try, and I'd like to go with others next time -- Taberu definitely seems like it would be more fun with a group. I did feel like I was forgotten a few times at the back of the room, and some empty dishes lingered on the table a bit too long, but my server was very friendly. I would recommend having some regular napkins along with the magic tablet one: I thought that was simply for cleansing one's hands at the beginning, not to keep through the entire meal, so I ended up having to duck into the restroom for paper towels at one point. Don't most places take the wet towel away after one use? But I digress. As Little Tokyo seems to have fewer and fewer good Japanese dining options, it's good to see a place like Taberu opening up nearby, and I think it holds promise as one of Downtown's most promising Japanese dining options.","806 E 3rd St Unit 140 Los Angeles, CA 90013",4.2,159,"Ramen, Izakaya", +202,2023-09-13,2023-09-17,Taberu,"Rating: (3.5/5)I recently dined at Taberu, and it left me with mixed feelings. The appetizers, notably the karaage and seafood tartar, were absolutely delicious, deserving a solid 5-star rating. However, my overall experience was tempered by some disappointments.The main dishes, unfortunately, didn't quite live up to the same standard as the appetizers. They were generally okay in taste, but nothing exceptional. Now, the real letdown was the service. It seemed like a tale of two experiences - heavenly food from the kitchen and a somewhat frustrating encounter with a few employees.In particular, during our order of the Yakisoba, we encountered an unsettling situation. To our dismay, we found a hair coiled between the noodles. We politely pointed this out to our waiter, expecting an apology and for the dish to be replaced. Instead, his response was rather disheartening. He asked us, ""So what would you like me to do? Remove the hair or do you want us to remake everything?"" This response felt dismissive, as if our concern was being brushed aside with a casual remark.While the food itself had its moments of brilliance, the overall experience suffered due to subpar service. The chefs clearly have culinary expertise, but the front-of-house staff could benefit from a more customer-centric approach.The interior of the restaurant is a visual treat. It exudes a warm, inviting ambiance that's perfect for a night out. The comfortable seating arrangements make it an ideal spot for a relaxed evening with friends or a special someone.

We had to eat so quickly and the food wasn't even that great. I'm sure the waiter was busy with all the other patrons but we were just not attended to well enough. Had to wait for everything, salt and pepper, water refills, etc. Honestly, salt and pepper should just be at the table and maybe out down a water dispenser for the table - I don't mind refulling myself. Maybe have some extra staff on show nights - especially if you are going to add an extra 20% service charge. I don't mind it.

""why not?"" I'm so glad we did because... wow!We walk in and the ambience is great. Nice, clean, minimalistic/newtro aesthetic. It was also nice seeing the chefs working behind the counter rather than hidden in the back. Guy at the counter was super nice. Ordered our food, took our table number card, and found a seat immediately. It was busy but not packed. There's some nice big tables in the center of the dining area which could comfortably seat 6 maybe crush in 8, and some smaller tables on the perimeter. I sat on the side that had the long bench with white stools on the other side of the table. I don't recommend the white stools, my butt went numb after a while, try getting the other seats with the nicer chairs especially if you're a bigger person like me.Despite the discomfort of the stool, this place gets 5 stars because the food is amazing. We had an order of three Braised Pork Belly over rice, Chiayi Chicken Rice, Egg Tart, Hong Kong Milk Tea, and later a free Pineapple Bread.Chiayi Chicken Rice was nicely seasoned. As the seasoning soaked into the rice it gave it a partial congee texture which made the meal feel very cozy (I may get this on sick days from now on). The spicy pickled radish it came with gave it a nice contrast. Add the chili sauce to every spoonful of chicken rice and it was perfection.The Braised Pork Belly over rice came a little late which is why we got our free Bread but it was worth the wait (also not docking points because it is a soft opening after all and they're figuring this stuff out). Once again the seasoning was key, and the cucumber pickle perfectly cuts the greasiness of the Pork Belly. I wouldn't advise everyone at the table getting this together though. My wife and I shared half and thought it would have been a bit overwhelming to deal with if one of us had our own bowl.Egg Tart was so good. It was a more custardy egg tart. Wife says the texture reminds her of a soft serve. Perfectly flaky on the outside. A+Pineapple bun... mm...mmm... chef's kiss. So soft out on the inside and perfectly crispy on the outside. They gave us butter with the bread but honestly didn't need it.  Now I'm glad our Pork Belly dish came out late cuz I would've missed put on my new favorite Pineapple bread.","3915 1/2 W 6th St Los Angeles, CA 90020",5.0,8,Cafes, +205,2023-08-31,2023-09-17,Liu's Cafe,I'm going to be the first customer here!!!

I turn around and this female bartender (found out her name is Amy) gives me the nastiest attitude and yells at me that customers are not allowed to stand there. I was shocked! I looked at her and said don't you ever put your hands on me again. Then, she replied, ""You can go see the exit!"" Wow. First of all, there would have been no issue if she kindly asked me to move. The audacity that she thought she had the right to hit me is beyond my comprehension. And then to tell me to leave instead of apologizing after? So I asked for the manager. I watched her as she went over to him, pointing at me, really just acting and looking angry and out of control. The manager came over and basically told me the same thing she did, that customers can't stand there and she was letting me know. Yes, I understand that. But can we address the fact that she was rude and placed her hands on me? He told me he didn't think she really did that! My friends were standing there watching and other customers were shocked. So not only did this uncouth bartender assault me, but the manager told me I was lying about it. What a hellhole. BTW, the manager's name I'm told is Cody.

The restaurant had an overwhelmingly unpleasant 'fishy' smell as soon as we walked in, like spoiled seafood, and the vast majority of the restaurant was empty. We were seated immediately in a booth and brought water but it took awhile to get menus and drinks. The server was friendly but he NEVER came back--- we were left on our own for SO LONG without anyone coming by to see how we were doing. He told us to use the QR code for accurate pricing since the menus they gave us were not up to date (then why give them to us at all?). I ordered fried tofu and asked for a side of peanut sauce instead of sweet chili, and my friend ordered pad see ew and some mango sticky rice for dessert. Our food took maybe 20 minutes to come out. The food was hot and fresh, the tofu perfectly crisp on the outside, but it was VERY mushy and soggy on the inside, like too much water was left in it maybe? And extremely bland, no flavor whatsoever. Even when I dipped it in the peanut sauce that just tasted like peanut butter, no seasoning or heat in the sauce at all.  It was like eating spongy cardboard with a mushy center. My friend said her food was good but honestly, we were astonished by the service. We sat down to eat at 9:15. We finished eating around 10 and waited for the server to come by to offer us to-go boxes and bring the check. We sat and talked, our plates obviously finished, no longer eating, until 10:40 when I finally flagged him over to bring us to-go boxes and the checks. He brought the to-go boxes and then vanished again. We boxed up our leftovers and waited, but no check arrived. At almost 11 he resurfaced and I flagged him down again and asked for the checks again. He said ""Oh, no one brought them to you? Sorry!"" and went to get the card machine and brought it to us. The food is a little pricey - my appetizer of fried tofu was $20 plus tip and the mandatory fee for using a debit card (we actually used Apple Pay) and while the portion size was generous I can't say the flavor or the service is going to make us come back. I know there's better food in Thai Town.","5241 Hollywood Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90027",3.8,671,Thai,$$ +212,2023-09-16,2023-09-17,ixlb DimSum Eats- Hollywood,"The reason that ixlb DimSum Eats - Hollywood does not get five stars is because they absolutely refuse to alter anything in their menu - they even refuse to cut up the Chinese sausage in the Bento Box, even though, technically, it is NOT any kind of substitution (I wanted to order the Bento Box for a person who could not eat large pieces of food, thus the request to cut up the Chinese sausage). I even spoke to the Manager, who absolutely refused. So, I ended up NOT placing a $65 order - their loss.Compare this to any other Chinese restaurant, most of which will customize their menus for the diner.We have not gone back to ixlb DimSum Eats since the infamous ""Chinese sausage"" incident. There is a really good upscale dim sum restaurant in Studio City which has a much larger selection of dim sum and is an actual restaurant, as well as a section for counter service to-go orders (that restaurant is Shanghai Rose).It is a shame about the lack of flexibility at ixlb DimSum Eats, because they have good dimsum, and I used to drive in from Monterey Park (to pick up large orders for several people) because I preferred ixlb DimSum Eats' dimsum to dimsum from various restaurants in the San Gabriel Valley (which is saying something, because the SGV is known as a great area to get Chinese food!)One thing that I loved is the turnip cake - it is very flavorful, but I suspect it might only be ordered by those people who are open to Chinese food that is not ""Americanized."" You can find turnip cakes in Chinatown in authentic dimsum restaurants.ixlb DimSum Eats is an upscale version of those authentic dimsum restaurants. The hargow and shrimp and chives dumplings are delicious. The sticky rice ball was disappointing: hard and with pieces of uncooked rice - we only ordered it once, and never again. Instead, we would order the seafood pearl, which is similar, but the rice is sticky and SOFT. The curry puffs are good, but extremely greasy. The Smiling Fish Bun is a take on Bao, in an open-faced style. It is good! But if you want just the same fried fish without the Bao and toppings, you can get the Fried Fish Fillet which has 2 pieces of fish and a side of the same sauce that is in the Smiling Fish Bun (the Smiling Fish Bun only has 1 piece of fish).Parking is horrendous around ixlb DimSum Eats. There is a very small parking lot behind the restaurant (parallel to Sunset) and very little street parking. There is an Arby's nearby with a larger parking lot, but I don't know if they will tow away cars if they see people parking there and NOT going inside Arby's. I would wait to go to ixlb DimSum Eats until after 8pm just so I could find parking.In sum, the only reason I give ixlb DimSum Eats only 3 stars is their lack of customer concern and lack of flexibility (it would have taken less than 2 minutes to cut up Chinese sausage for the Bento Box ... ).

Perhaps they could have included a bit extra sauces and condiments for the dishes (such as sweet sauce for the spring rolls), but hardly a huge complaint given how everything was.Pork Siu Mai - PACKED with meat and veg, this is perfectly seasoned and just explodes in your mouth. One order was 4 pcs and enough for a good portion of a 2 person meal. That said...I bought 2 orders for 2 people and am happy I was indulgent ;)Xio Long Bao - My comparison point in Cal is Din Tai Fung and these dumplings held up to the competition - for a fraction of the price. DTF's version has more soup and fills your mouth with hot broth immediately, while ixlb's are more subtle, but more than make up in flavor what they perhaps lack in soupy KA-POWness.Shrimp Wontons - Again 4 per order and that's plenty! Absolutely yummy, came with most crispiness remaining (not bad for a few mile trip!) and their chili sauce is solid. Seems like at least two shrimp (or a beautifully tasty and huge single) in this monster. Loved this dish.We also ordered the fried shrimp balls (odd texture at first, then that rich flavor takes over and you're transported to another, kinder, place). Spring Rolls were hot and fresh and delicious (see note about sauce above), and the Cha Siu was fine, definitely have had better in town, but I primarily ordered to make my own fried rice later in the week, so fine by me.No comments on ambiance of actual store as only delivery so far, but this is definitely my new GO-TO (or COME-FROM) spot of Dim Sum in Hollywood and mid-city!","5900 Sunset Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90028",4.4,953,"Dim Sum, Hong Kong Style Cafe",$$ +212,2023-08-23,2023-09-17,ixlb DimSum Eats- Hollywood,I love this cute little fast food dim sum place.

It seemed like it was still in soft opening or something, but we were starving and willing to try something new. I've only had tsukemen 2-3 times in my life, so I was excited to see how this compared.The ambiance inside was pretty good. Seemed like they were busy. My friend asked the waitress what kind of soup broth the ramen had (miso, shoyu, shio, etc), and the waitress couldn't answer, she just said ""traditional"". But then when further asked, she said that she was still training and still new to the place, so it was understandable.The wait was probably 20-30 minutes before we got our food, which normally wouldn't be a problem but we were definitely starving at that point.We all ended up getting the Tsukemen since it was in the name of the restaurant. To be honest, it was a bit underwhelming. The meat was almost like....deli meat you'd find at the grocery store, or in a charcuterie platter. I was expecting like actual chasu that you'd find in ramen typically. But maybe it was a different style? Also the soup was a bit salty for my taste, but maybe it's supposed to be that way. Either way, it wasn't my favorite thing, and by the end I wish I had tried the ramen instead.Overall, it was an okay experience. Not sure if I'd come back, but if I happen to be in the area and wanting noodles, I'll probably try the ramen. I'm sure the service might be better next time too given our waiter isn't someone who is still training.","232 E 2nd St Ste B Los Angeles, CA 90012",4.6,7,"Ramen, Noodles", +213,2023-09-07,2023-09-17,Tsukemen Aizen,"Ate here for lunch today and really enjoyed the food!

I spent some time locating the entrance and was a bit sweaty by the time I arrived. To my delight, the waitress brought me a glass of ice water as soon as I sat down without me having to ask. Great service!Before my order was served, two trays of condiment were presented to enhance the flavor. The regular deluxe Tsukemen I ordered has a decent amount of noodles and a spectacular display of meat. With the 15% soft opening discount, it is not unaffordable.While the plating is magnificent, there is one problem. The noodles are sitting in the center dip of the plate, half-covered by the cold water draining off from the shimeru process. As a result, the noodles become softened, and the seaweed placed on top of the noodles also softens. Some tsukemen shops use a bamboo strainer to avoid this problem.The ajitama is aggressively marinated and has a dark brown exterior, but the interior is very white suggesting that it's not been soaked for too long. The yolk is pleasantly semi-runny. Besides the thinly sliced pork spread around the plate, there is also shredded pork in the center, and a few pieces of fatty pork in the broth. It made me wonder if this could be a viable option for a protein-based diet.The broth is bonito-based and tastes similar to the one at Tsujita. It's not piping hot either. Overall, I enjoy the thick, al dente noodles at Tsujita more. The array of condiments didn't do much to alter the flavor; perhaps I'm too modest in using them.At the end of the meal, I was given a small glass of mint lemonade to cleanse my palate. A nice touch. The atmosphere is trendy and clean, although there are some gnats flying around the shop. Considering the location of the restaurant, I don't find it too offensive. I guess no gentrification can clean this part of town up.","232 E 2nd St Ste B Los Angeles, CA 90012",4.6,7,"Ramen, Noodles", +213,2023-09-07,2023-09-17,Tsukemen Aizen,"TSUKEMEN LOVERS REJOICE!!!

Has a warm, family/ home style cafe vibe to it. The folks here were very friendly. It's order at the counter style and they bring out the food. So the presentation is beautiful and it still has a fast casual feel to it.This place has been on my go to list for a while now. Finally got to go with couple of friends. I ordered the fried catfish with the cheesy grits as a side. The grits were delicious and had a nice firm texture to them. The fish was fried perfectly with flakey bites and crisp outside. I got to try some my friends shrimp and grits and oxtail taco. Both very good.Definitely a great spot that I would love to return to and try some of the other stuff on their menu. There are a lot of desserts there that I would like to try as well. I was kind of full and we were kind of a rush to get somewhere so I didn't end up getting any dessert this last trip.

After we finished our bbq, no one came to check in on us to see if we would like to order more or if we were ready for our fried rice. We had to flag the staff down multiple times to remind them and we were kept waiting for so long that the oil and remaining vegetables were burnt. When I pointed that out, they did replace the grill for us but we were disappointed the fried rice wouldn't be cooked with all the good meat essence from our bbq (and as expected the fried rice tasted blend).I think for the price point, the service could be better and the staff could be more attentive.

Although there are so many options in Ktown, since the weather was quite warm, we thought Mun Patio would be perfect on a hot day.We were a bit unsure if we were supposed to go through the front entrance or if the patio had a separate entrance. Since we arrived a couple minutes before opening, we decided to walk around the building to kill some time and found a side entrance with a sign so we peeked in. Although we were STILL early, we were welcomed to take a seat on the patio. The sun was still out but there were several tables in the shade. The tables were situated far from the street entrance so the hustle and bustle of the street is blocked. String lights were hung above, which I would imagine would be beautiful later in the evening.The patio menu is limited, but you are allowed to order from the inside menu. The patio menu includes 3 different meat options, 3 noodle items, and 3 stews/ramen. For 3 people, we ordered the pork set (port shoulder, pork jowl, and pork belly), which comes with fried rice for $65 and added one order of the Kkodorri noodles (definitely recommend). This was the perfect amount of food for us. There was a DIY ramen station if that's what you're craving after some drinks.Our server cooked all of our meat for us and even grilled the kimchi (and potato!), which I love.

From the food to the service to the quality to the coziness of the dining room - it's all five stars across the board from me.I'd actually never heard of this spot before heading up to the LA area for a work trip. The guy I was with, though, he not only knew about Kuya Lord but was very excited for us to try it out. Luckily, we had a couple of hours to kill between events and this place was close enough for a quick lunch.The dining room was pretty packed when we arrived, though ""pretty packed"" here means there were two larger parties already posted up at their tables. The dining area is tight, so be prepared.We decided to share a couple dishes: the Lechon Kawali rice bowl (pork belly, rice, salad, $25) and the Beef Tocino bowl (short ribs with egg, $26). We also each got a glass of their honey calamansi juice ($7 each) and - because we're crazy - decided to share the calamansi pie $(10.50).The first bites of the Lechon rice bowl instantly transported me to my youth, to being in a family kitchen with my mom and aunties, to hearing my uncles talking about the proper marinade for the beef, the best way to sear in the flavors, the perfect pairings as sides. The Tocino bowl made me pause - beef still whole on my tongue - to appreciate the complexity of the flavors and the juiciness of the meat.To say we both enjoyed the meals would be an understatement. We're still talking about the food to this day - and this was only the second meal we'd ever shared together. The power of good food, man! Building relationships and memories without even trying.The honey calamansi juice was refreshing, a bit tart and slightly sweet. The calamansi pie was...well, it was a bit much after all that food. We got through a quarter of it before having to tap, but it had a nice bite from the calamansi, and a smooth texture to the filling. I wish we could have taken it back with us, but we had several more hours in the car before we could get back to our hotel, so that wasn't an option.We both very much enjoyed our quick (though slightly expensive) meal here and acknowledge our new friendship was built over the dishes and the conversations we had while in the dining room.","5003 Melrose Ave Los Angeles, CA 90038",4.4,178,"Barbeque, Filipino, Noodles",$$ +223,2023-09-09,2023-09-17,Kuya Lord,"Been here a couple of times and really wanted to love it.

Plus, I don't like bread (which is why I mainly stick to tenders), so the fact that they offer rice is a complete game changer.Fries from all three places are equally good.Other than flavor, 2 reasons why Howlin' Ray's has an advantage over the other two:1) It travels slightly better than the other two (I've dined in and ordered take out from all 3 places)2) For Angry Chickz and Dave's, if you order anything above medium or hot, the flavor significantly goes down and the spice overpowers the taste. However, with Howlin', I've ordered every spice level on the spectrum (even howlin', which put me in pain for 3.5 days), and as spicy as the food may have been,I was still always able to taste the flavor.But anyway, I'll say this.If I were doing take out, I'd choose Howlin over Angry Chickz.

Chef Minh Phan curates her menu so thoughtfully, and to watch her in the kitchen is to watch an artist and chef building every dish with love.

Excited to see what the future brings for this chef and her food.","1370 N St Andrews Pl Los Angeles, CA 90028",4.4,21,Diners,$$$$ +225,2022-10-06,2023-09-17,Phenakite,"Phenakite has returned in a super stealth, under the radar multi course fashion inside of the Forest from the Trees art installation in East downtown Los Angeles.You are shocked when you refresh the Phenakite Tock for your daily check to see if they are back and serving and see actual reservations. You make one with no hesitation or care about the cost.The no-publicity approach seems to be destined to keep things on the DL. There appears to be a single seating for just five tables per night. It's all inclusive, food, tip and alcohol paid for when you make the reservation on Tock.The evening begins with a non-alcoholic yuzu drink while you wait for a private time in the art installation. Unusually everyone at your dinner has arrived early or on time (besides a party that no-showed, shockingly). Which left some lag in the schedule as the art installation has some time padded in. You enjoy the cool air and the opening of the exhibit where a series of microphones have been cleverly changed into small speakersThat experience is great; and interesting, however the real magic begins when you slip into a gallery esque dining room. Five tables all facing a kitchen where Chef Minh Phan works with her team composing a multi course meal. You might say it's nine or ten courses but some of the courses include multiple small dishes so you wouldn't argue if the chef told you it was a 15- or 16-course meal.Thematically the idea is tied to that of the art exhibit, indigenous foods (tho not religiously, like you might find at Owamni - The Sioux Chef, in Minneapolis), no waste, and the heartfelt imaginative cooking of the chef herself that is unlike any other in Los Angeles.Her laptop sits nearby connected with an aux cable to a speaker. It keeps turning off as the laptop goes to sleep and the chef fiddles with it to restart her playlist of 90s and 00s indie rock and alternative. Wilco and the Magnetic Fields serenade you.The walls are stark white with gallery lighting and a few branches screwed into them, but some have fallen. The wooden tables are decorated in a way that's elegant but also homey and reminiscent of how your mom or aunt might.And then the food. Bold at every step. Looking at past Phenakite menus you see some of her themes, a blowtorch (which ties wonderfully to the art exhibit) lights filled mochi and a fig leaf on fire, creating smoke and ash that drifts over the table during the course.Fauna of the forest with a flavor profile that is dreamlike. Different stems and pieces that might be thrown away used and pickled.A series of small dishes including a three sisters dish, a crab cake with the perfect season of dill and tarragon, pickles from the sea to go with it.  The lone dish of the night that fails to live up to its brothers and sisters is a shrimp with an elegant birds nest of root and tuber tempura fried on top of it. Salty and beautiful but pales compared to the flavors of everything else you are served. Perhaps that misses the point, and the salt is there to cleanse the palette.A fish dish with a medley of flavors and vegetables and perfectly splayed out fried mushrooms. The porridge course that one expects and loves from the beloved chef behind Porridge + Puffs. Two remarkable bites of venison with bright seasoning and mouthing numbing qualities.A course called a Dance Party that again minimizes the waste from the kitchen. Followed by a staple herbal granita and a crème desert.Throughout the meal alcohol pairings were served. They match the food beautifully and you make note of new wineries to check out in Santa Barbara next time .The service is warm and enthusiastic. The servers when introducing themselves reveal that they are an art student and an actress. It's at once surprising, revealing and excusing. Wines are poured occasionally with no explanation of the vintage and food dropped off without explanation, the menu is on the table so you can read, but the story is slightly lost in these moments. The lack of experience is at once endearing while also occasionally jarring given how remarkable the meal is.You embrace the at times awkward service with the same love and familiarity that the staff and space embrace you and embrace the strange situation they have found themselves in.From the entire time you felt purpose, warmth, and love poured into the meal you've been served. There isn't anything else quite like it, and you feel bad about wanting to tell people about it, as if it being secret could help it exist in its purity for a bit longer.And at the same time, you must talk and tell your friends about it, because you leave changed and touched in a way that few other meals ever accomplish.As you leave the gallery, You wave goodbye to the chef, and wish you could have this first experience all over again for the first time","1370 N St Andrews Pl Los Angeles, CA 90028",4.4,21,Diners,$$$$ +225,2021-11-21,2023-09-17,Phenakite,"Had really high hopes for this place after getting LA Times restaurant of the year and a Michelin star. Overall I think the concept was cool but the execution on food and plating was lacking.First, they seat you by order of which you arrived. The weird thing is, they don't take note of who arrived first and go around asking everyone. If you plan on seating by order of arrival, then a staff member should take note to make it an easier transition to the table for the guests. Other than that, I'd say the service was solid.Some of the plating felt a bit too much, random stones on a plate or unneeded rocks. I was able to look past that but the food was just not executed well at all. There was a tempura dish that wasn't crispy, it had no crunch and felt like it was sitting in oil for way too long. The pork belly course was way over cooked. I could see each fiber and I had a tough time cutting into it. The mochi that accompanied the dish was great though. The fish dish was severely overcooked as well, I couldn't take more than a bite. At first, I thought it was just an off night but when I spoke to friends who went prior to me, they all commented similarly.

It was a tremendous progression of tastes, flavors and stories that are meant to be a journey through the land, sea, and air. Some items didn't entirely hit, but overall it was a near impeccable journey. One of my few complaints is that they serve a lot of food, but don't let guests take leftovers home...so bring your appetite!THE DRINKS: We shared a beverage paring and it was a great match to the meal and felt like a perfect amount of drinks.THE SPACE: The team somehow transforms the courtyard of a coworking space into a fantastic secluded outdoor garden.

We got a dozen oysters,crudo, the bread with anchovies, lobster roll, and scallop tostada to share. All of the food  was delicious. They also had my favorite key lime pie.

Found Oyster is very good. Their oysters are flown in, and kept quite fresh, offering great taste and served with excellent condiments/garnishes. Other items on the menu are tasty as well, and definitely worth exploring.The wait staff was friendly and attentive, without being pushy for you to leave so they could clear space for additional customers.The only reason I have excluded Found Oyster from the 5 star ranking is because of its prices and physical space. While the food was good, the price point was a bit high considering what it is at many other seafood places I have eaten at. (Ones that are actually by the water where the oysters are 20 min old) It's also tiny inside, which I realize is simply the space they have to operate....but it feels cluttered and definitely affects the overall dining experience.Overall, it's worth a visit if you like this kind of fare.","4880 Fountain Ave Los Angeles, CA 90029",4.4,320,Seafood, +227,2023-09-02,2023-09-17,Found Oyster,So yummy and the service was on point.  Everything from the oysters to the scallop tostada was fresh and delicious.Loved sitting at the bar and watching all of the hustle abs bustle.  Will be back soon!,"4880 Fountain Ave Los Angeles, CA 90029",4.4,320,Seafood, +227,2023-09-02,2023-09-17,Found Oyster,"Amazing! I started following FO on Instagrams few year ago and I was able to visit twice before covid hit. I easily fell in love! I was able to order during the first weeks of covid when they only had a walk up window and visited a few times post with the new ""deck"".I love oysters and raw bars, but in LA I've never found a place I liked as much as Lure in NYC, Swan in SF or the Walrus and the Carpenter in Seattle. Till now!!The menu is a small but I love this because this means it's all fresh! I really wanted to order one of everything but always some raw oysters. They have specials depending on season like razor clams, shrimp etc. You can't go wrong with anything from the menu, it's all fantastic. The scallop tostada is orgasmic and the Sicilian crudo is to die for!!","4880 Fountain Ave Los Angeles, CA 90029",4.4,320,Seafood, +227,2023-09-02,2023-09-17,Found Oyster,"I'd had a rough day today, and there's just nothing to lift my spirits like sitting at a bar with some raw oysters and a glass of wine. So I headed over to try Found Oyster on my way home, hoping for a lively but casual environment where I could just sit by myself at the bar and enjoy my surroundings.First of all, parking is a challenge before 7 p.m. (when restrictions are lifted on Sunset) and if you're going to be there past 6 p.m., when neighborhood permit-only parking takes effect. Timing-wise, it's probably best to arrive at Found Oyster when it opens at 4 and spend a couple of hours and then get your car out of there. After circling the surrounding blocks for about 20 minutes around 5:30 p.m. on a Friday, I finally found an unrestricted spot about 0.2 miles away, but I was almost ready to give up.When I arrived, there were already people spilling out onto the sidewalk, waiting for tables. The restaurant has a bench and some chairs next to their outdoor seating that are dedicated specifically for people on the waitlist, and the nice thing is that someone will come out and take your wine order so you can get the party started before you're officially seated. I, however, got lucky and took the last seat at the end of the bar.When you first order, you check off boxes on a double-sided paper menu, kind of like you do in a sushi restaurant. Remember to check the chalk board behind the bar to see the day's specials, including the oysters of the day.I ordered a dozen oysters, half and half of the two varieties -- but unfortunately it was so loud in there (the music was turned up WAY high, and the restaurant was full) that I couldn't quite hear which oysters were which when they arrived. They both tasted fresh and not too briney, and I really loved the cocktail sauce that came with it, which tasted house-made. (The mignonette was not my favorite, as I prefer more of a red wine vinegar style and less leafy green bits in it.) There's also some Louisiana hot sauce bottles on the bar, if you like that sort of thing.To accompany my oysters I also ordered the Bub & Grandma's bread and butter appetizer. The bread was dense and grilled to a crisp -- I like really toasty toast so it was OK for me, but some might consider it overdone. It had been thoroughly oiled, so it actually didn't really need the soft salted butter splotch that had been added to the plate. Being the butter fiend that I am, I ate it all anyway -- then again, others might think it's too much.I rounded out my meal with the wedge salad, which was a very generous portion. The bacon on top wasn't crispy, but more like lardons -- thick, cubed pieces of very dense, meaty bacon with a strong flavor. The stilton blue cheese was very good, but the dressing itself was more of a plain buttermilk and landed a little flat for me. I loved the tiny sliced tomatoes on top, they really added some farmers market freshness to the dish.I would normally have stayed longer and hung out, but it was SO HOT inside -- 92 degrees, as reported by one of the staffers. No one apologized for the heat, but I can only assume the A/C broke. It was legit windy in there with all the fans going (I had to put my hair in a pony for it not to blow into my food) but it was really uncomfortable still.Also the wine is pretty expensive for a 4-ounce pour in small glasses, and there's no Diet Coke offered -- only Mexican Sprite. (I don't know if they have Mexican Coke, they told me they only had Sprite.) And the bottle of tap water I was given when I sat down just wasn't cold enough to be refreshing. So I took off once I finished my food, which I was definitely full from.On the positive front, the food came out very quickly, and even when my server forgot to put in my wine order, it was remedied right away and they admitted their mistake. I felt so bad for everybody working there, suffering through the heat -- and I really admired how they weren't audibly complaining about it.","4880 Fountain Ave Los Angeles, CA 90029",4.4,320,Seafood, +227,2023-08-30,2023-09-17,Found Oyster,I loved the freshness of the seafood we had at FO.  Their oysters come from a family farm in MA.  They also have fresh oysters from other sources.All dishes we tried were excellent albeit scant--most notably the lobster roll.  I've never had a lobster roll this small. I'd rather pay more for a healthy portion of lobster.Service was excellent and super helpful.Tip:  FO is a small resto-- small like Hog Island Oyster in San Fran and Neptune Oyster in Boston.

I started seeing accounts on Instagram rave about the smoked trout dip and I'd like every photo of their Sicilian crudo that would show up on my feed. Needless to say, this place was bookmarked. I currently reside in Marina del Rey and avoid driving to the east side at all costs, but I decided to suck it up and make that 45 minute drive over. I had no idea what I was in for. We got to dine outside, which suited the seafood feast we had. It was near sunset so the golden hour was alive and well. Our servers were so passionate and informed about the menu items, that we had full confidence and excitement in everything we ordered.Melon De Burgogne ($58) - Bright, crisp, refreshing! We were able to order and enjoy this wine while waiting for our table. Drink with oysters and sunshine!Overboard Platter ($161) - ""Life's short, get the seafood platter!"" was the statement of the evening. Jaws were on the floor when this tower was placed on our table. 18 of the freshest oysters imaginable, peel & eat prawns that packed a punch of flavor, the buttery, melt in your mouth, delectable Sicilian crudo, and a crab cocktail dip that was so meaty, LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!Smoked Trout Dip ($23) - The first bite of this brought tears to my eyes. I have never tasted anything like it, I still don't know how to explain the flavor. They made something so simple have so much depth and complexity. A ritz cracker was the perfect vessel for this delicious dip.Bub & Grandma's Bread ($8) + White Anchovies ($5) - That bread was the main character! She was so buttery and the perfect ratio of toasted layer to soft warm bread. The anchovies were also very necessary. It elevated a simple bread and butter starter to an entrée level menu item.Scallop Tostada ($19) - I could have eaten 3 of these. Strong yuzu and basil flavors were the ideal companion to the rich taste of this mollusk legend. A must order.Lobster Bisque Roll ($33) - How are you going to go to a seafood forward establishment and not get their signature lobster roll? it's impossible. But boy oh boy, no regrets whatsoever. They did not skimp on the lobster and the bun was so light, soft, and buttery. It was perfect.Fried Cod Sandwich ($17) - We couldn't not try their seasonal special. C'mon. Amazing quality fish, fried with a thin crispy layer of batter. The sauce. Not sure if it's tartar or some sort of aioli (I forgot), but it complimented the fish perfectly. They made a fried fish sandwich refreshing with some tang. So simple, so delicious.","4880 Fountain Ave Los Angeles, CA 90029",4.4,320,Seafood, +228,2023-09-15,2023-09-17,H Cafe,"I like the pancake ... sandwich was good!

Nothing super special about the menu. We were a larger group, so people ordered different things and lots of appetizers, but not one of us thought our food was good. The dishes either felt over salted or bland to us.  I think we liked sides and the appetizers more than the pastas. The guy taking our order even told my friend to not order one of the pasta dishes because he didn't think it was good.Also, the wait staff didn't seem like they liked their job or maybe they were confused. I don't know if it was because we were a big ""younger"" looking group or something, but it felt like our waiter didn't want to serve our group or just didn't have good communication skills. He didn't really talk to us nicely.My friend did valet here because it was a Saturday night, and parking in this area is just terrible. After dinner, we had wandered next door to get some ice cream nearby, so my friend left his car with the valet for maybe 30 minutes after we left the restaurant, but when we returned, we didn't see the valet guy, and the wait staff told us that the valet was closed...when it was actually not. We called the number at the valet post, and nobody picked up. Luckily, the valet guy returned like 15 minutes afterwards (he was grabbing a car).

Then before he leaves the table says ""it'll be better for me if one person places the orders for everyone."" I'm sorry but 6 adults and 2 children is not a very large group.

There are Outdoor, indoor, and bar seats, all of which you can choose from. We walked over from a close-by apartment, so I can't speak to parking or public transit, but I believe there is a subway station close-by. We visited on a Saturday evening and were able seat right away without a reservation.There were plates, sides, and raw portions of the menu, but we were there for the yakitori. There's also an interesting cocktail menu. The yakitori menu had a pretty extensive selection. I opted for the pork belly, and skirt steak & wasabi. the price difference was drastic, with pork belly being 6, vs skirt steaks 18. The latter sounded interesting and I wanted to say I at least tried it. I also ordered an IPA that I haven't heard of before.The bartender assisting us was very knowledgeable of the drinks menu and was able to help my sister in finding a drink that she might like. We also got to see him make the cocktail in front of us. The drinks didn't take too long to be ready for us. The yakitori however did take a little bit longer than we were expecting. You can see the kitchen, and it doesn't look like there are many spots to grill the skewers, so maybe that's why.The pork belly was delicious. Something about the sauce that it was covered in, really brought out the taste. I did save the more expensive skewer for last, but I ended up being a little disappointed in the skirt steak, because there wasn't as much flavor as I was expecting, given the price. Maybe it was the wasabi, as I think it is real wasabi, and not the one you would see at your everyday sushi restaurant. The wasabi didn't add much to the taste, and I like wasabi. With that being said, if I were to come back, I'd rather get 3 pork bellies as opposed to 1 skirt steak.This was a really nice experience. Minus the wait and the high expectations of a more expensive menu item, this is definitely worth the visit.

So, this was a nice preview.The next item was the avo tuna toast which is wild caught tuna, yuzu smashed avocado, crispy rice, green onion, house togarashi. The yuzu definitely stood out, but maybe a bit much for my taste personally, but the tuna was good and the crispy rice was toasted nicely.The chicken meatball, pork skewers and the mushroom skewers came out next...loved the chicken meatball and the sauce it came with. The pork belly was good, but a bit salty and so were the mushrooms. I couldn't finish the mushrooms...Then, my personal favorite, the black chicken karaage...black because of the squid ink, cooked perfectly...crispy outside with a nice crunch, tender on the inside and that black garlic ranch...chef's kiss!There was also broccolini with fried garlic that was another favorite, and an onigiri that was meh (you can pass on this if you're ordering a la carte).The staff was attentive but not overbearing...Becky, you were amazing!Definitely check out the extensive Japanese whiskey selection and their cocktails!

AVO TUNA TOAST: The server recommended this one and photos of it on yelp caught my eye... but the flavor was underwhelming and tasted like something you could make at home.2. CORN TEMPURA TOWER: Good, tastes like your standard corn tempura. Not sure it makes sense for the price though.3. UNAGI: Unagi was good and tender - tbh, I prefer it on sushi rather than yakitori, but it comes with crispy rice on top for varied texture.4. PORK BELLY: The pork belly is a thicker cut and was cooked well.5. BEEF TONGUE: I've never had a thick cut of beef tongue, but was pleasantly surprised. The umami flavor was good and it was really tender.6. SKIRT STEAK & WASABI: The two skewers we got were different sizes of meat and my friend's skewer ended up tender while mine was dry. Flavor-wise, the wasabi isn't very strong and doesn't add much to the skewer. Can't really justify this for 18 dollars.7. SQUID INK KARAAGE: Previous reviews raved about this dish, but I don't see the appeal. Don't get me wrong, the chicken was tender and had a nice crispy batter, but it's nothing super special. Tastes like good chicken karaage.8. BLACK FRIED RICE: The black fried rice was probably my favorite out of everything we ordered. I liked the salty flavor profile and thought it paired well with the karaage.9. GREEN TEA HIGHBALL: I liked this drink! I mentioned I wanted something smooth and this was recommended to me by the server. Would definitely get this again.SERVICE (5/5):Service was good.AMBIENCE (5/5):Intimate and cute.

I'll start with the good (the first 3 dishes and the 2 deserts were STARS) then with some criticism.Food highlights: You know it's going to be unusual when the first course of an 8 course meal (6 savory, 2 desert) is a ribeye with no punches pulled.  Give the people what they want when they want it (now!), I suppose.  The roman gnocchi is delightfully funky and chewy and stole the show in my book.  It was reminiscent of the best Brazilian cheese bread that I've ever had... savory, funky and a great chew. The focaccia was also a star but the ribeye cap was chewy.Duck raviolo was tasty and gorgeous with a cabbage dust.  I wanted a bit more gaminess from the duck but the presentation and cooking was wonderful. I can't remember if it was this dish or another that had the grilled snap peas but those were the best snap peas I've ever had and should be featured on all of the menus here.Hailbut: what a fun dish! Texture was spot on and presentation was really whimsical.Desert: 5 stars all over! There's a lot going on and I think it all works.  Such great balance of tartness, sweetness, and bitterness.  The blondie could've been better at room temp instead of cold.  Whatever, I'm nitpicking on that.  EVERYONE enjoyed desert and all of the layers and details were tremendously fun.Food misses: We had a heavy menu.  We were forewarned that we may not want to eat everything because a lot of food would be served.  This makes no sense to me.  You have control over coursing and portion.  If you know it tends to be more food than necessary, then edit!  The quail course (which was so tenderly battered and fried) could be halved by only serving one leg instead of two.  The white BBQ sauce was overwhelming and salty and dominated the dish.  A few other dishes were oversauced.  At some point, I wished that the first course were some basic omnipresent crudo instead of a ribeye cap and I was yearning for a palate cleanser after course 2.  .The other misses: Look, I'm going to be critical at this price point.My water glass was cracked. No biggie... I'll grab another.  Then the wine glass that the host gave me was chipped and cut my lip. Boo hoo, it was very little blood, I know.. but it's hard to look past the second strike here.The table is worn particle board with the wood veneer noticeably falling off and the chairs just scream cheap.  I'm not gonna care if the admission ticket itself were cheaper but you expect a certain level of ambiance given the cost.The music is all over the place.  Childish Gambino, followed by Elliott Smith, and some Foo Fighters thrown in for good measure. It felt as random as a Pandora playlist from 2008.The host was unengaged.  Told us what the first course was then said use the QR code for the other 7 courses, which was only posted by the water station under the precariously positioned peacock that everyone kept knocking into.THE CUTLERY.  They ask that you use the same set of utensils for the 6 savory courses.  Look, I don't want you to wash a bunch of utensils and waste water and time either.  But if you're going to serve me a sticky fonduta that I can't clean off my spoon other than by scraping it off with my mouth, then just give me a new spoon.  For ~$200, I don't think 1 more spoon over 6 saucy courses is an unreasonable expectation.In summary, if you're going to spend this much on a pre fixe meal, go to Le Comptoir or Orsa & Winston.  The food will be superior as will the ambiance.  It's almost unfair to say this as Wolvesmouth is a uniquely private dining experience, but I felt like there wasn't the requisite level of thoughtfulness that this price point demands.  I also wouldn't recommend NOT going if you have a group of friends large enough to take up one service.  It was fun taking over the dining table and BYOB was fun.   I hope this crew keeps working it.  There are some real gems on the menu and in each dish and I can't wait to see if this concept changes and becomes something larger.",,4.8,175,Pop-Up Restaurants,$$$$ +233,2023-04-04,2023-09-17,Wolvesmouth at the Wolvesden,What an incredible experience this was!

The process from planning and coordination through arrival is very smooth and bespoke in many ways, where you feel a certain sense of exclusivity. The menu options are pretty much standard or vegetarian, though the team was kind enough to accommodate gluten-limited for 1 in our party.Upon arrival they opened the hidden door and welcomed us into this wooden cottage-like house with beautiful long table. The kitchen seamlessly coexisted with the dining area and was only separated by a small island they used for plating. I loved the furnishing - simplistic and on key, while the corner showed a side table for the bring-your-booze station. That in itself was an amazing addition and really helped us figure out what we wanted to drink, mix in, and complement the food journey.The courses then started arriving 1 by 1. Everything was superbly imaginative, balanced in expected ways, and drove us on a journey across many regions. I was very surprised by the quality, the ample sized portions, and especially the evolution of the dishes. I certainly see this as quite the experience, which was marred only by constant nudges. The entire venue was booked for our private party, and every time a couple of us stepped outside for a cigarette break (that does not take super long after all) the host would eventually appear to usher us in because the food was going cold. I find that they could do so much better in expediting, and not have to force a high single-digit course dinner into 1 hour and 45 minutes. It was unreal how fast they were trying to wrap up. I had not read that this is the pervasive comment from most visitors, and looking back - I do not think it would have changed my mind about visiting, but it really took away a bit from the exclusivity of the experience.",,4.8,175,Pop-Up Restaurants,$$$$ +233,2022-12-09,2023-09-17,Wolvesmouth at the Wolvesden,incredible experience.  from the ambiance to the food and service.  it say just try this place if you can.  the food was delicious so many different flavors.,,4.8,175,Pop-Up Restaurants,$$$$ +233,2022-09-20,2023-09-17,Wolvesmouth at the Wolvesden,I came here with my girlfriends a couple weeks ago and it is absolutely an incredible experience.

I'm familiar with traditional Portuguese food more so than Brazilian food so I couldn't help but compare themWe ordered 2 pāo de queijo, and I wish we had gotten 2 more. They were fresh - warm and soft with cheese baked perfectly throughout the bread. Honestly I liked these more than the Portuguese variants I've had which usually include a hard cheese.The grilled pea salad was probably my least favorite of the dishes. The ricotta and peas were nice, but the greens were massive and included a lot of stems. Felt like I was chewing on a full mint sprig constantly.Ordered two skewers to split between the two of us, too. The crispy chicken thigh and the linguiça. The chicken thighs were great, crispy on the inside and very hot and juicy. The linguiça was a bit underwhelming. I love Portuguese linguiça, which tends to be spicier and honestly, heftier. I was a little disappointed seeing the tiny little weenie that they skewed up. It was still a similar flavor profile, but not the same for me.We ordered a couple of the caipirinhas too - I had the hibiscus which was very nice and fresh. Finished our meal with their seasonal watermelon with tajin. I honestly expected it to be a drink so imagine my surprise when they brought out actual watermelon.Service was a little slow and the meal was definitely more expensive than it had any right to be, but I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and trying the picanha or the coxinhas","1966 Hillhurst Ave Los Angeles, CA 90027",4.4,50,"Brazilian, Cocktail Bars", +237,2023-09-10,2023-09-17,Nossa Caipirinha Bar,DELISH!

The vibes in this part of town are very welcoming.Tingling Cumin Noodle Dry with beef $16: I think this is good if you really like cumin. It was heavy on the cumin, and we didn't finish it all. Because it wasn't being eaten quickly, the noodles stuck together and became clumps.Tomato Dry Noodle with beef $16: This dish was more tasty and had different flavors. I like the taste break with having the texture of veggies and meat in the dish.Overall, I liked the Tomato Dry Noodle, and eat it quickly!Warning:  There aren't many comfortable seats to sit on and seemed like everyone was in a hurry.After eating our dinner, we walked across the street to Salt and Straw.

These people must be getting paid to leave these reviews. It isn't even comparable to the other smash burger spots in LA. The lack of customers was alarming -- my partner and I were the only ones rheee eating. There were two people at the bar drinking. If it's so amazing you think there would be customers?The burger meat was plain and the meat was of poor quality. And the patties were basically a glob of meat in the middle. Hugely chopped raw WHITE onions? Should be sautéed sweet onions. C'mon! The pickles were terrible. They were bitter and they don't use pickling cucumbers, just the regular with tough skins. Yuck! The love sauce was by far the worst tasting burger sauce I've ever had. The flavors were so off. And the ranch was just as bad. And they charge 75 cents for the tiniest cup of sauce and fill it halfway. Complete rip-off. Chris N Eddy's gives out unlimited sauces and their food is 10 million X better and half the price.The fries were decent and the onions rings were okay but way too much breading per onion and they were burnt.Needless to say, if you think this is the best smash burger in LA you clearly have not tried their competitors!","532 S Western Ave Los Angeles, CA 90020",4.8,56,"Burgers, Food Stands, Bars",$$ +240,2023-08-14,2023-09-17,Love Hour,Been on a hunt for the best smash burger in LA - I actually got to try love hour at Coachella this past year.
