We celebrated my birthday at République, and it was truly the perfect night. From the moment we…read morearrived, the staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming, and the service was exceptional throughout the entire evening. The food was absolutely stellar. My husband and I loved everything about our meal, and every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and memorable. The bluefin tuna toast was a standout, beautifully presented with a delicious smoky flavor and kaluga caviar. The hamachi crudo brought a fresh brightness to the meal and was the perfect contrast to some of the richer dishes. The tableside Dover sole was an experience in itself, and the lobster campanelle had such unique and wonderful flavors. Everything was outstanding, but what made the evening especially memorable was the combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and the warm atmosphere. République made my birthday feel truly special. We had an incredible evening and can't wait to return!

I wanted to enjoy this place. I was looking forward to it. What I ordered:…read more Solyanka- this was a very good soup. Nice flavors and well balanced. Chicken Piroshki - I Bit into this and they were literally frozen still on the inside. Now, this was a huge letdown and really ruined the vibe of the rest of my meal. First of all, they freeze their food so it's not made to order which is common, I guess....but how do you serve still frozen food?! Beef Cutlet with mashed potatoes and pickles - This was tasty. I enjoyed it. Potato Pierogi - these were very bland. Not much flavor at all. There was also literally no one in the restaurant. It was a Wednesday night so I guess it's slow, but that also is telling. The server was very nice and helpful. She felt very bad about the piroshki. The vibe of the restaurant I can't place. Why are their records? It doesn't seem like a Music theme...it didn't make sense to me. Overall I was disappointed and am still searching for amazing Russian food in the area.

The eggplant on toast was very flavorful and cool. Sundays are for burgers. Yes they have the best hands down burger in the area, The two different ground beef Blend was seasoned and cooked to perfection. They added some sort of creamy sauce and of course the fries were cooked nice and crispy. We wished we had more of an appetite or guest with us for this party of two, to try more food. But I guess we have to come back for more! Ambiance and service was impeccable

This place had been on my bucket list for over a year after I saw how cute it looked on Instagram…read moreduring the holidays. I'd walked past it a few times and always thought it had a great vibe, but the seating situation was a little disappointing. The only nice seating consists of the three tables by the entrance; everything else is bar seating, and the restaurant itself is very small. Taking away the seating situation and evaluating just the food, I'd say Casa Damí is your average "try it once and perhaps never go back" kind of place. We started with the burrata, which was good, but I've also never had a bad burrata before. The croquettes were basically fancy cheese curds, which I could totally get behind if I were at a bar. The tiger prawns were a chef recommendation, but unfortunately they were pretty small and overcooked, which made them difficult to remove from the shell. The flavor was okay, but they were frustrating to eat, and at this price point I expected more. The olive oil cake was great and probably the best thing I ate all night. I can't say I'd come back just for that, though. Maybe I ordered the wrong things, but based on what we tried, I'm glad I experienced it once and don't feel much of a need to return.

After years of wanting to visit The Little Door I finally got to go to celebrate my birthday with…read moremy partner. The Little Door is known for their gorgeous outdoor seating under twinkly lights but be aware you cannot garuntee a spot there - only request. We had reservations on a Sunday night and they were fairly busy around 7pm. We were taken to the back seating area which is indoor. I appreciate that they have the option of a personalized dinner menu which is what my partner got for me, and they even bring you a large envelope so you can take the menu home. It took us some time to be greeted by our waitress. I felt the service was lacking. She was nice, but I felt like we were often forgotten. For our drinks I had a cucumber gin martini and my partner had the Casanova. Both were delicious! For our appetizer, we ordered the Piri-Piri shrimp. It was 4 pieces of shrimp lined up with small circles of flatbread in between each piece, seated on top of a smoky and flavorful sauce. We both loved it! For our main meal we ordered the couscous "Royale," fresh Papardelle pasta, and roasted carrots. The couscous came with one lamp chop, stewed lamb, merguez, and chicken - with a side of sliced almonds and dried apricot for topping, extra lamb stew sauce, and the most incredible harissa. I absolutely loved this dish, it was so flavorful. The pasta was a solid dish as well, and the roasted carrots were also fantastic. For dessert, we ordered the lava cake and I had Moroccan mint tea. The lava cake was well balanced with flavor and not overly sweet. The tea was fragrant, sweet, and the best way to end the meal. Overall I had a nice first experience at The Little Door. I don't think there's much left on the menu that I would want to try. I would love if they added more Moroccan-inspired dishes to the menu to make them stand out! But I feel like I would still come back, and I recommend it as a place for date night or to celebrate a birthday.

We had lunch/brunch here and had an amazing experience! Andrew was such a spectacular server and even brought a great white wine to go with my ceviche. He accommodated to our party which had children and just provided just such a great experience for my parents 40th anniversary brunch. The menu has a lot of variety without being overwhelming or excessive (I don't trust restaurants that have too much on their menu lol). I ordered oysters, which were on the small side but the flavors they placed on top were amazing. I followed with an entree of ceviche which was generous, DELICIOUS, and nourishing. Our table ordered an array of items: Portuguese scramble, Shakshuka, Hugo's rotos con Jamon, the branzino, breakfast pizza, Italian breakfast sandwich, French toast- each one exceeding all expectations. Playlist was repetitive but fun for me, a millennial drinking mimosas and white wine lol.

Once we were seated, he came over and asked us what we would like to drink and suggested making a special beverage and it was delicious! Food was good and our server was very attentive and took great care of our party of 8. My favorite dish of the night was my hamachi collar bone! It was light and the watermelon salad was refreshing. The reason for the 4 stars was the pricey drink prices and they boxed up our chicken but somehow mixed it up and we came home with a dessert instead!

Food, service, and ambience are all 5/5 stars! The only thing that sucked was the parking. This…read morepart of LA just sucks to park at in general. We had to park around the corner in a really disgusting area that was full of trash, dog poop and smelled really terribly of urine and sewage. That being saidddd! The Shepard's Pie was sooo good, it is my new favorite. Served in a skillet, it was a big, piping hot portion that's enough for 2 whole meals! It paired absolutely beautifully with a pint of their Bike Shed Brew. I felt like I was in London, spot on! The only thing I would add is some HP Sauce and/or Tabasco. I waited 10 years to finally check this place out and it was absolutely worth it! I'd love to bring people, my girlfriend even said it would be an amazing wedding venue, we just wish they had a better parking situation.

The employees seemed nice and friendly, but service felt really rushed even though the restaurant…read morewas pretty dead. Our waiter also forgot our second round of drinks. Gave us our check so we just decided to leave. We originally came in because we loved a lot of their vegan options: the zucchini fries, mint pea hummus, Brussels sprouts, wild mushroom salad, etc. Sadly, have been discontinued. I really wish they would bring some of them back because they were always a staple for us, especially when grabbing drinks at the bar. We also used to love having them with a Lane Splitter, which they unfortunately don't carry anymore either. Overall, it just doesn't feel like the same experience it used to be. ):
