Our waitress was knowledgeable about the menu and gave good recommendations, which made ordering easy. The drinks were good and definitely not watered down. My only critique is that I wish the portions were a little larger for the price. Overall, it was a solid experience, and I'd definitely go back if I'm in the area. Be prepared to valet your car because parking is... Well it's LA.

The outside garden patio is so lovely but because of the heat, we sat inside. Very attentive service by our friendly waiter. Cocktails were tasty! We shared the Buratta appetizer as well as stuffed squash blossoms and we both had the scampi with a side of pasta. Everything was delicious with generous portions! We were too full for dessert, but I received a birthday pistachio ice cream, heavenly. We were there on Tuesday and we had a 6 o'clock reservation. By 6:45, the restaurant was packed. The noise level is a bit, but that's to be expected in a popular restaurant. It was really nice to see this new incarnation of a wonderful restaurant.

Come here for the happy hour with great food and drink specials both!…read more Saint & Second is the restaurant located on the 1st floor of the building where 24 Hour Fitness is located. Parking can be found in the Topanga Village garage and is free for the first 1.5 hours. My friend and I came Friday afternoon around 4 pm for their happy hour. Normally happy hour is on their patio, but they seated us in their regular dining area, not sure why. They have both indoor and outdoor dining. It was a nice day out, so we requested outdoor. Unfortunately that meant I was bitten by mosquitos a couple times. All cocktails on the happy hour menu are between $10-11. I got the Boston Sour and my friend got the Social Mule. We both liked our drinks. For food, we shared the following from the happy hour menu: Green goddess hummus ($8 hh) - pretty good, but I wish there was more pita to go with the hummus! Crispy chicken sliders ($11 hh) - ginormous chicken sliders! Would highly recommend! Meatball sliders ($11) - good but on the smaller side, especially when placed side by side with the chicken sliders lol Blackened salmon tacos ($11 hh) - also good, though I found the salmon a bit bland Presentation for the drinks and all the dishes was beautifully done. Everything is plated nicely even for happy hour dishes.

******* DEFINITELY SIT OUTSIDE ********…read more This restaurant was suggested by a neighbor as a cute date night spot with good food and drinks. She was spot on! Sit on the patio to enjoy the full effect of the fairy lights, fireplace and cozy spaces meant for an intimate date. I had their Old Fashioned which was banana flavored for summer. The banana was a more subtle finish, not sweet, but I still prefer their peach version and wish it was also on the menu. The deviled eggs are just the right bite for drinks. We also had the flatbread and hummus, made with green garbanzo beans and served with watermelon radish and pita bread. TIP: if you like biscuits, order theirs! Put your order in right away because they're baked fresh for you and they take a while. With the honey butter, it's perfect! Service is consistently good! From the hostess stand to the bar, it doesn't matter where you are, staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Servers read your vibe well and respond accordingly, providing excellent service for a date night or family/friends gathering.

5* Ambiance 4* Food…read more4* Service It has been a lifetime since I last dinned here. The views are more spectacular than ever and the interior decore is beautifully updated and clean. The food is fairly priced for the quality and menu presented. This is both a special occasion or casual dinning restaurant. Many showed up in shorts and tank tops (YUK) and others were nicely dressed for brunch. Their brunch menu had a lot of miss and hit items. Next time I would skip the Mango Habanero Shrimp and Truffle Popcorn chicken. The deep fried shrimp was overbowered by the bleu cheese dressing; the mango and and habanero flavors were visibly detectable but not balanced. The fried chicken and popcorn had clove and moderate seasoning which made it difficult to detect the truffle flavors which would have made this dish a success. The presentation was cute, but it missed the mark for us. The petite Charcuterie board, aquachile and ahi tuna poke were both a success! Each had quality and fresh ingredients. The shrimp and ahi tuna were perfectly prepared and well balanced in flavor. Next time I really want to try their bruch platter for two as it offered a generous portion and everytable that ordered them appeared to have really enjoyed it. The bar is great as it offers many options for mocktails, coctails, beer and wine. Next time I want to return for dinner and try some meat items on the menu.

The ambiance is nice with TV's everywhere. There are no bad seats if you're going to watch a game. They have a lot of options on the menu and a good happy hour. The service was great and the waiter was very attentive. Food came out fast and was made fresh to order. The taste of the food...... mediocre. We ordered the mahi mahi tacos which was decent but I've had better. I would highly recommend grilled because the crispy was way too dry. We also ordered the Philly steak sandwich...again...dry.... So I added ketchup and ranch. There were other menu options that looked good so I would love to visit again and try other menu options.
