You can never go wrong with pasta so we decided to give Uovo a try. We ordered Cacio e Pepe, Vongole, and Broccolini. Cacio e Pepe - super creamy with a hint of pepper, the perfect balance imo - I got so excited for this one when I saw the chef mix the pasta in the cheese wheel Vongole - clam lovers please try this because GASSS - a lighter type of dish with tender clams Broccolini - super buttery with some char The setting is clean and service is great. We came on a slow day so everything came out pretty quickly. I love the open kitchen concepts where you can see the chefs whipping up the food. I appreciated being able to see the work behind the beautiful and yummylicious food. My only regret was not getting their tasting menu sets which I hear is amazing. The restaurant has a no tipping system, but do charge a 16% that goes to tax per state law and operation funding. However, if there was a tip option, I would've tipped Definitely coming back!

Place was busy, but not too bad. 3 stars because the AC was broken or not working efficiently. Sorry, I'm sweating through my shirt while sampling wine and eating hot food. Half the restaurant was fanning themselves with the paper menus. Completely unacceptable and frankly an unhealthy situation. At 8pm, it was cooler outside than inside the restaurant. If management had any interest in a return customer they should have gone table to table offering a discount, or extra app or something. Instead they put it on the poor waitress to keep apologizing to everyone, like it was her job. Any effort would have gone a long way.

The staff were attentive and bless them for being available for my birthday tonight and it was a late evening so an hour left to make food prior to closing so grateful for making themselves available. Noted there were only 2-4 tables filled while the rest is empty and cleaned up for the next day. I felt the food that was presented was rushed and not plated well and food overall was salty especially the fish and the duck breast as main entrees. Just the plating of the beet salad to the squid ink with lobster just seems off. The charred octopus didn't taste that fresh and was definitely chewy. The pork chop was done nicely as well as the pork meatball and KAMPACHI crudo. I felt the past visits were much memorable and tasty but tonight just felt off with the staff and the chef items that was plated to us. The staff did offer to redo the fish or any item but it was late and I didn't want to trouble the staff late into the evening. The olive oil bread cake was delicious and grateful for a grand bday dinner. Definitely heed our suggestions and hope things work well with the restaurant in the future.

What we ordered: Appetizers -Grilled octopus: this was tender and flavorful, grilled to perfection (Must try!!!) -Calamari salad: light and refreshing, tossed in a zesty lemon herb dressing Entrees -Beef Kebab: served with a pillowy, puffed pita which was hollow in the center & hummus. The beef kebab was flavorful and well seasoned. It was served with basmati rice -Branzino: served on a bed of fingerling potatoes. The branzino had beautifully crispy, golden-brown skin. Yet the fish was moist and perfectly prepared. The dill and the capers gave the branzino a nice contrast. Desserts -Tiramisu: had a noticeable hint of alcohol which complemented its creamy texture -Mango Sorbet: light, refreshing, and the perfect way to end a delicious meal!

We started with melon and prosciutto - the melon was so sweet! Then we shared a Cesar salad - good portion size for 3 people.

Husband had My Brothers Jerry's Tortelloni -veal and chicken tortellini. I had pasta carbonara - the noodles were amazingly tender and the taste was spot on. Probably the best pasta that we've ever had! Finished up with a coconut cake with a drizzle of raspberry sauce. Plenty of parking in the lot. Outdoor tables were shaded. It was a pretty warm day so we opted to sit indoors. Really old school ambiance. Service was very efficient. Pricing was fair and portion sizes are excellent and could be easily shared between 2 people. We each had leftovers. Highly recommend dining here!

We went with the tikka masala and the fungi lama. The wait wasnt very long, and we did ask for a water, which they have in water bottles and the staff offered a bottle on the house. Our pizzas ended up tasting amazing, and they accidentally sent a Habibis, which they gave on the house as well. The vibe was super chill and friendly, and i would come back again.

Carlos is kind and precise with the pizzas he is whipping up. The Habibi pie is amazing. The crust is one of a kind and should be experienced once at least in your lifetime.

You'll get some unique mixes that work surprisingly well together. I will be back there tomorrow

We decided to try Nick's for lunch to celebrate my birthday. OMG!!!!…read moreWhat a great place to dine. We had a reservation so we were seated right away on the second floor, just above the bar. The music was a little on the loud side so conversation was a little strained. The food was absolutely amazing. Our server was very friendly and informative but was not quite as attentive as we would expect for an establishment like this. This was our first time here, so we had to try the Asparagus Fries. The asparagus was cooked to perfection but the batter did not have much flavor. Members of our party ordered the California Salad, a Veggie Burger, the Meatloaf and a Picante Pizza. The California Salad was smaller than expected but delicious. The Veggie Burger was excellent! The Meatloaf was the hit of the table. It was so good that my wife did not offer a taste to any of us. She was in food Heaven. The pizza was exactly as described and tasted wonderful. Since we were celebrating my birthday, our server brought me a delicious piece of double chocolate cake with a candle in it. Nice touch!! We also had one of their Warm Butter Cake's with some excellent vanilla ice cream on top. Absolutely wonderful!. This may be our new "go-to" place. Looking forward to return to savor the other items on the menu. Their drinks looked delicious as well, so we will definitely try those too.

We visited this restaurant at the beginning of Dine LA for lunch ($35)…read more When we arrived, the door was locked and had to be let in by the staff though there were at least 5 other parties dining there. I thought that was a bit odd, but I guess it was to detract from unwelcomed guests (i.e. homless people)? Anyhow, we were seated right away and sat by the window which was nice! We were given the menus, but I had to specifically ask for the DineLA menu which I also thought was a bit odd since it seemed like they wanted us to order off their regular menu. Perhaps this was just an oversight. For starters, we ordered 1 of each that was offered: Ceviche Carretillero - Refreshing and brought me back to time spent in Peru! I preferred this option Salpicon - This was also refreshing and reminded me of chicken salad mix in a bowl though not sure I would order it without it being a part of a prix fixe. For the main course, we ordered: Saltado Salad - This had minimal protein and was not so satisfying when compared to a traditional lomo saltado, but the protein that was there was yummy. Aji Gallina - I really was excited to see this on their menu since I love this dish so much and don't see it offered too often at Peruvian restaurants. Though the sauce was good, the chicken was VERY dry and hard to chew (overcooked) so it took a while to finish this. In lieu of desserts, they offered Maracuya (passion fruit) and Chicha Morada (purple corn) juices which were yummy but the star of the show was their sangria which was delicious especially on a hot day. My only complaint about the sangria was that we were charged for 3 carafes when we only got 2. Once we identified this, we brought it up and just went ahead and enjoyed the 3rd one since we had already settled the bill. That being said, always double check your receipt!
