This was an amazing experience, my wife and I came in met Brian got amazing service from the moment we sat at the bar( which is the place to sit with reservations) got live jazz music today and the food was amazing from the samplers to the skewers to the skirt steak, the pasta and all the desserts, afegato was amazing the cookies to die for, Brian made amazing suggestions for wines to pair with the food, all in all it's gonna be my go to place from Now on when ever I get hungry need a sip or just in the area... can't wait to see y'all soon, would have uploaded pictures but it's one of those places where food and drinks and the vibe is soo good you forget till it's too late read more

What a perfect little hidden gem, that I selfishly want to keep a secret. The crowd was so right, that I don't want word to get and it become a crowded mess. Not to worry though, the owner does a fantastic job of filtering his patrons. Which is phenominal because it works so well with the ambiance the music and mood and of course the food and the wine. Top notch. Gonna keep going. Hats off to Brain! read more

I wish there is a way to remove the bad ratings due to dress code so you can get a better feel of the restaurant based on Wine/Food/Service... Came with girlfriends and had a lovely time We sat at the bar and had wonderful conversations with owner and sommelier Love learning and trying new things read more

New hidden gem. Nice, cozy, chic, relaxing place. High end wines, and delicious foods. Oh, yes I almost forgot, live music too. You order at the bar and they bring your food to your table. We went there without a reservation on a busy night and they were very accommodating to give us a table. Definitely go if you appreciate fine wine and relaxing ambiance. read more

Great food and wine! You must make a reservation. Owner is really personal. Wine selection is top notch

Great experience. Brian the owner was very knowledgeable on wines. Made us feel like regulars Love that it's our backyard in Chatsworth. Doorman was very professional and explained the concept to us. We had the lamb chops and frites were delicious and fresh. Paired well with our Cab Franc that was recommended. Also the music in the background was a vibe as well. We will be back. read more

Cuisine ... fantastic!! Brian and his team turn just having dinner into the an extraordinary experience!!

Incredible food, wine, and ambiance close to home. We went two weeks ago and we're still thinking about it! The lamb was some of the best I've ever had. It's not just did and wine, it's an experience. We'll be back on the regular! read more

A Hidden Gem! What an unexpected find for a late Friday night bite and a glass of wine--thank you to the prior reviewers for leading us here! The food and wine pairings were spot on, and Brian's recommendations were fantastic. He's incredibly knowledgeable and a pleasure to chat with about the menu. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We sat at the bar, which I highly recommend to take full advantage of Brian's expertise and stellar service. The ambiance is dark with a lively buzz from conversations and street noise, but the warm decor makes it feel inviting and fun. A quick tip: Make a reservation through Yelp, as the doors remain locked for security. They check for waiting guests every few minutes. Overall, this place is a true hidden gem, and we'll definitely be back! read more

I will concede that the cocktails and wine were lovely, and the restaurant itself was visually lovely. That is where my compliments end. I was not prepared to be paying as much money as I did to walk up to the bar to order my food and drinks. I was also not prepared for most of it to be lukewarm. The ingredients were quality, sure, but the belief that quality ingredients with little done to it goes out the window when the food is not warm. I am of the belief that if I am spending $90 on a steak, I should have a waiter coming to my table to take my order. At that point I am doing a large portion of the work for you. That's a choice I simply do not understand Paying was no better, as there were numerous issues with charges and the two cards we used were run multiple times. When asked why, we were told only a dollar was charged each time. I will not be returning, and I may be getting a new debit card after what is at best an underwhelming and overpriced evening. read more

Canto VI is the best restaurant and best bar in all of the San Fernando Valley, period. Brian is a gem of a human being. Charismatic, hospitable, funny, and a deep well of knowledge when it comes to wine & food. Ambiance is exactly what you'd hope for in a sexy wine bar, and the live music twice a week is perfection. Chef Chester is a wizard in the kitchen. He has a deep respect and love for European cuisine, specifically old world recipes which complement the old world style wines being served here that change daily. Lance is a very skilled bartender who will make you a perfect cocktail each time and is awesome to chat with. Maleek is the nicest and most hospitable security guard/bouncer/host as well! I can't say enough good things about Canto VI, and we are extremely fortunate to have a place like this in the SFV. Also should mention the value here...I read reviews that say it is overpriced, which is kind of ridiculous unless you're comparing it to cheap crap chain restaurants....This spot has amazing value in its food & drink compared to hot spots around LA which you would be paying 2-5 times more; Bestia, Sushi Note, Casa Lena, Antico Nuovo, Dunsmoor, etc. read more

I LOVE this place. Best wine bar in the valley! Brian and lance are amazing at answering questions and educating guests on the menu. I came here with two friend and we had the best night ever. The vibe is so great here and we are definitely coming back for wine Wednesday again!!!! read more

Came here for our anniversary dinner and it was an amazing experience. A bit of patience and an open mind goes a long way as Brian and staff will give you a guide on how to enjoy the pairings they put out for you. I'm far from being a wine connoisseur in any way and they made me feel very comfortable. They can get busy and once you get a proper run down you'll understand what i mean and why they're gaining popularity. I hope the best for them and I'll gladly come back anytime. read more

Food and service were both outstanding and a very cozy yet comfortable atmosphere. Brian is fantastic. I'll definitely be back when I'm in LA again. As far as issues with the dress code goes: I'm all for it as I think it's about time people started acting and dressing a bit more classy in general, especially for a nice evening out. read more

Went there for New Years eve date night and was blown away by the and ambiance and food ( very delicious). The jazz band was super cool and set the mood for a great evening. We'll see you soon.... read more

Wow! All I can say. The valley has been starving for a place like this. Brian and his crew truly delivered one of the best culinary experiences I've had in quite some time. The moment you step inside you forget that you're in Chatsworth. That's a good thing! The casual and comfortable nature of operation provides a wonderful contrast to Brian and Company's serious food and wine skills. His wine pairings and selection are beyond top notch. Our red flight consisted of a Cornas, Bandol and Cab Franc from Loire: All of which were beautiful. The cheese plate actually had amazing cheese for once! Crispy fries with shaved botarga provided an elegant and comforting contrast to the wine. I'm already plotting my return! You need to go here! Seriously!! read more

Very enjoyable spot in Chatsworth, feels like you are at an exclusive private restaurant. The food is delicious and the staff is obviously very passionate about their work! Amazing wine selection as well as a full bar. This is my new go-to spot when I'm in the area. read more

Amazing wine, amazing cocktails, amazing spirit collection, amazing food, and most of all amazing service! This is a must go to place in the Valley. read more

I was under the impression the 6th ring of hell made you want to eat more? I am absolutely gobsmacked by the overtly positive reviews. I grew up in the valley- and have been to all kinds of restaurants from very upscale to very casual- especially in the chatsworth and Woodland Hills area. I totally respect what they are attempting to do- bringing an upscale and different dining experience to a - let's say - less than upscale part of town. Drinks were decent. Bartenders were very polite and friendly. But the food completely lost the plot for me- and my entire party. I do notice that the menu today is different than the menu many people are raving about- so maybe the change here is the problem? For the price point, the quality of food was simply not there or up to par with other restaurants. Our bill was approximately a grand and not one person was satisfied with their meal. We had a wide selection of items from appetizers to pasta to steaks and desserts and unfortunately nothing really hit its mark. Many of the dishes could easily be created with similar or better quality at home. Again- not good enough for a grand spent for 8 people. To be honest- when chatting about the food quality at the table- we thought it might be a "cold kitchen" - essentially where they makeshift dishes so they can offer some sort of food with their wine bar experience. Certainly not a gastropub level though. Now after reading the other negative reviews - I'm sure the owner will come back with some snappy remarks but- the reality is the quality of food is simply not worth the money we paid. I also almost never ever leave a review - but given the positive reviews, the prices, and the lack of even basic wait staff- we were disappointed as what we paid in no way levels up to other restaurants in the valley charging the same prices. (More than 100 per person- and some of us didn't even drink) Some positives: Easy parking Some of the apps were interesting and tasty. The soft salami and Fennel was decent. GOAT cheese tart was ok. Drinks everyone seemed happy with They gave a couple of complimentary items which was generous. As for the mains and desserts- it's a no from me. One person ordered the steak that is supposed to serve 2 - for 90 bucks- and it was about the size of a 8-9 oz filet plus some bone. He ate the whole thing on his own. Came with 5 smashed potatoes and butter topping. To be fair- it was cooked very well and was tasty- just not 90 bucks worth Every other entree was a miss, cold, or both. Two of us ordered what the menu described as a skirt steak with burned onion something or other. What we got was cold sliced strips of balsamic glazed skirt steak on top of an arugula and radicchio salad. For 38 dollars a head. Again it wasn't bad. It just was nowhere worth the money and could easily be made at home. Pasta dishes were also mid. Orange budino was literally whipped cream with orange essence and ground pistachios on top. Again they may be just working the kinks out of the menu but for the price- I had to warn my fellow Dante's inferno enthusiasts. read more

Local resident here. We were excited to see a new, maybe more upscale restaurant in the neighborhood. Thought it would be a more traditional restaurant. It's not. Thats ok, we're open to new things. So we went last night. They keep the front door locked. Why keep the door locked? Random security guy comes and asks if you have a reservation. We didn't and he was about to turn us away. We're thinking this place must be packed. It was about 730pm. There was one group of five at table and three people sitting at the bar. We wanted a table but random security guard insisted we sit at the bar. So we sit at the bar. There's a guy, I'm assuming "Brian" standing with his back to us. We waited about five minutes and the guy not once turned to welcome us or even let us know he'd be with us in a moment. Absolutely nothing. Just sat there staring at each other wondering how we order food, find a table or just order an over priced glass of wine. We got up and left.... Sorry, as expensive as I know our visit would have been and with no wait staff to assist, we expected just a little more than a locked front door and an uninterested bar tender. Absolutely boring!!!These folks missed the mark. It's Chatsworth!!!!!! ****Update... 45 seconds my a.... Easily 5 minutes. You would have gotten more mileage by sticking to the technical problems excuse and apologizing rather than blame your customer. There's a reason it's empty. Crap service and the inability to take responsibility for your own short comings. read more

Ok, I went back and had a more than 5 star experience. They remodeled the bar and it makes perfect sense for how the owner works the space. Great change. Also took my own advice and paid more attention to the wines being poured and the price was extremely reasonable for the experience. Very highly recommend and will definitely be back! read more

a unique dining experience for sure! i was really blown away. the food is delicious and i'll definitely be coming back! definitely a date restaurant read more

Super fun place! Friendly service. Loved the wine and the food. My friend and I each got a wine flight and shared some small plates. Blistered tomatoes were really good and I also really liked the chocolate pot with coconut that we had for dessert. read more

CANTO VI - Hummus, blistered tomatoes, fries with crispy roe - Supper Clubs Near Me - Chatsworth, California

This spot is cute but service is nonexistant and the food was mediocre at best. The menu needs to be reworked and focus needs to be placed on execution. The only reason to come here would be for the live music when they have it and if you drink wine. We ordered a couple appetizers and a pasta dish for my main and everything was just meh. The pasta tasted more like box mac n cheese than anything special. This place wants to act upscale but not deliver anything upscale. No servers!! You wait in line to order from the bar from people who don't seem too inclined to give food recommendations but are just fine presenting tip options when you check out. Last, we were all but rushed out because there was a reservation after us. We were there for less than two hours and there were other empty tables. This place has some work to do. read more

So glad to have a cool spot that's new in the neighborhood. Small low light sexy ambiance, great for a date. Food was yummy, wine was great, definitely will be back! read more

CANTO VI - Delicious and cute addition to the neighborhood! - Supper Clubs Near Me - Chatsworth, California

What a gem! I came here on a Wednesday night and, at first, wasn't sure if it was open, but it was. The food here DID. NOT. MISS! The grilled calamari was buttery and firm, side salad complemented the other foods well, the grape gazpacho amuse buche was a delightful start, the fries were generously portioned, well seasoned, crispy yet tender, and the ending sorbet's minty citrus taste rounded off the meal well. The wine flight selection offered nice diversity and paired well with the food. And the service was friendly, professional and unpretentious. Looking forward to coming back to try more on the menu and on a Wednesday or Saturday when there is live music! Definitely sit at the bar for a premium experience! read more

The service was great. Ambience was excellent.. Brandon and Brian were so welcoming and kind. I learned a lot about wine. Highly recommend recommend stopping by if you're in the area. I flew from Ohio just to try their wine. read more

For months I watched this place from the outside wondering when it was going to open because, let's be honest, we needed something amazing in this area! Finally got a chance to go and had such a wonderful time. The vibe is cozy but upscale, high-end without being pretentious. The wine and food were outstanding, and again, let's be honest, where can you get a really amazing glass of wine around here? (Or 2 or 3 glasses...) Well, you've found the place. Did I mention the menu is great for just about any type of eater? I'm dairy free and I was full, always a concern for me when I venture out to eat. Went for a date with my husband and have already booked my next reservation for myself and some local girlfriends who are dying to try this place out. This is a real gem. There's nothing like it that I've ever experienced and to have it here in Chatsworth feels like we have a big bad secret about how great it is to live on the edge of the city/suburbs. Highly recommend! It's clear a lot of time and thought went into every detail of this place. Brian made us feel very welcome and we were well taken care of at CANTO VI. Can't wait to go back! For those of you outside of the area - it's worth the trip! read more

This place is amazing! The martinis, wine, food, staff, ambiance, all excellent! We're looking forward to our next visi

What an amazing experience. I so wish Westlake Village and Thousand Oaks had a place like this. The most alluring atmosphere and vibe coupled only with unforgettable and delicious food, I felt like I was back in Italy, it is an experience to be savored. Chef Chester came out to say hello and really has all the culinary integrity in the world. It's no wonder that he is a well deserved Michelin star chef. The Lamb Frites were out of this world, the lamb, one of the best I think I have had. The blend of citrus is the perfect component to this dish. Our charred cherry tomatoes and focaccia with whipped feta was so fresh and pleasing to the palette with its brightness and flavor. Shrimp on a bed of light and airy polenta was just as delicious! Brian, at the bar is unbelievably knowledgeable and has curated the most obscure and compelling wine collection. A Sommelier with over 20 years at the famous Melise in Santa Monica. We did a fabulous pairing of unique French and Italian wines from complex to crisp and enjoyed each one. Adding another spectacular Bordeaux to cap off the night. The ambience, menu and service is nothing short of exceptional. We found the entire experience to have good value and very reasonable priced. A welcome change dining out. Can't wait until our next visit. Go ahead and treat yourself and indulge. You won't regret it. read more

What a great find in Chatsworth, cool vibes, great music and delicious food, Go for a full experience!

At long last, the wait is over! A wine bar offering innovative, seasonal cuisine and a thoughtfully-curated selection of wines has finally landed in the Valley - and we have Brian Kalliel to thank for it!! The food and ambience are wonderful. Guests are encouraged to consult with Brian and his staff for guidance in wine pairings with each course. The list is ever-changing with old-world by-the-glass selections that one would rarely see on any ordinary wine list. We started off with some of the most creative dishes I have tasted in LA. The whipped feta with lemon served with flatbread was just sublime, though my personal favorite was the fennel sausage on crostino with smoked mozzarella. I could have just stopped there and been happy, but we decided to venture on and share a few entrees. Wild shrimp flambeed on polenta, lamb chops with frites, guinea hen and bitter greens...Chef Hastings nails it! Generous servings with prices that are truly affordable. I would have expected to pay double anywhere else on the Westside. We ended with an affogato and a refreshing, lemon-lime granita with mint that was light but satisfyingly wonderful. I can't wait to return and would suggest that everyone visit while there is still room as I know once the word gets out, this new Valley addition will be packed every night! read more

Incredible spot in the heart of Chatsworth! My husband and i are so grateful that we finally have a beautiful spot that we can go to where we can expect good wine, food and a higher class expectation in dresswear. Happy to get dressed up and go out with my hubby for our amazing new spot! read more

We've been to Canto VI twice so far - New Year's Eve and last month, and the food, the wines and the service were all excellent. It is so nice to have an excellent restaurant/wine bar in this part of the valley. Oh, and both times we really enjoyed the live music! Whether you are a seasoned wine afficionado or a newbie, just ask the owner or the bartender for recommendations, and you won't be disappointed. We are pretty familiar with West Coast wines, but pretty clueless on continental wines, and each time, we got great advice on what to order (try the wine flights - they will help you pair what you are drinking with what you are eating). read more

My wife and I recently celebrated our wedding anniversary here. It was a breeze to make reservations. It was our first time here and they made an impression on us before we walked in. When we approached the door, it was locked. I thought we had walked up to the wrong entrance. Someone opened the door after we knocked and once our reservations were confirmed we were welcomed in. The service was warm and friendly from our first interaction with the gentleman that opened the door. The restaurant was low lit and had a neighborhood vibe to it. They were very helpful with recommendations and answered all our questions eagerly about the menu items. We ordered a bone in filet and a few appetizers, all of which tickled our fancy. Before we left, we were given a free dessert in honor of our celebration directly from the owner. We were thoroughly impressed by their hospitality and eagerness to impress. We had a fantastic experience and cannot wait to go back with our friends. They have live music on certain nights, so we are hoping to experience that aspect of Canto VI on our next dining excursion. Cheers!! read more

Great food & excellent wine selection. Date night vibes for sure, best music in a restaurant I've ever experienced. Compliments to "Chef Ray" for preparing a special desert for my date! read more

This is a hidden gem. Soon not to be hidden when people discover Canto and they will. The wine list is curated by Brian the owner and a very experienced wine expert. Ask him or one of their very knowledgeable servers and bartenders for a recommendation for food or beverages and you won't go wrong. The food was a perfect foil for the wine. Every bite was incredible. Compliments to the chef. The ambiance is great and the music is not too loud to talk but loud enough to hear the excellent choices playing. The ceiling has draped fabric on it which muffles the ambient noise. I can't think of any negatives and they have only been open for 2 weeks. Thanks for the great experience I had and I will be back for sure. read more

Such an amazing spot that is much needed in the area! Delicious food and amazing service. Amazing wine. I'm so happy I found this place, looking forward to coming back soon! read more
