    The vibes here are immaculate! Almost talum vibes! Actually..very much talum vibes. Dj and fire dancers as entertainment, on the weekends..So make those reservations. Hostesses/ - 1/10 umm not so welcoming or nice. Our waitress Michaela was AMAZING!!. Seriously so helpful and patient. Loved her attitude. Please hire all the Michaelas in the world! Our entire party loved her, as we were celebrating a birthday and she made sure that it was a special night. The 4/5 stars is because I'm not quite sure how I feel about having people smoke hookah around and next to me as I'm eating. That wasn't pleasing at all. Wish they would separate the two. Perhaps, keep the hookah upstairs and food/dining in the downstairs area. The spicy vodka pasta (not pictured) had a great taste just the noodles were undercooked. The wagyu was cooked to perfection. The shrimp tasted great, worth trying at least once.

    Had such a great time! My boyfriend brought me here to celebrate my graduation on the 17th. The food was delicious and our server, Maia S, was super nice! We enjoyed her service and kindness! Would definitely come back again!!!

    Made a reservation through open table for my sisters birthday on a saturday at 6:45 PM. Luckily at this time, it isn't as busy as later in the night. The inside is absolutely gorgeous and we all loved the aesthetic and ambiance of this place. They do hookah after 8 PM I believe, so anyone that's underage isn't allowed. They also have music playing and then a DJ as well too. Our server was Michaela, who was AMAZING!!! So shoutout to her! We couldn't have asked for a better server! She was sooo attentive, kind, and was the kind of person you'd want representing your restaurant. Thank you Michaela for your outstanding service! Now onto the food, we all ordered different items like: calamari, shrimp tacos, spicy vodka pasta (one with shrimp & one with chicken), fettucini alfredo, lobster roll, and the rouge burger. The food was absolutely amazing! Pasta is usually a hit or miss since sometimes you need to add salt, but the pasta was seasoned extremely well. Calamari was fried & seasoned well too! My Mom is a very picky eater & got the burger, but she loved her burger. The lobster rolls with the waffle fries were very good too. Now onto the drinks, the ladies ordered the Lychee Martinis & Hibiscus Bliss and my mom got the Passion Fruit Iced Tea. The Lychee Martini was dangerously good. You could NOT taste the alcohol in it! The Hibiscus Bliss was very strong, but good! & Passion Fruit tea was good once you added the liquid sugar they had. The men ordered the Allagash White beer, which they also loved. We also brought cake for my sisters birthday, which they gladly stored in their fridge for us for no fee! They also gave us a dessert platter for her birthday, which was sooo kind of them! Overall, our experience really blew us away. We cannot recommend Rouge enough and will gladly go back again! Thank you Michaela & Rouge for you amazing service, food & drinks!

    The food, the vibes, the service and the music.... Nothing to say - 10/10! Highly recommend visiting this restaurant.

    The BEST Lobster Roll I've had in Los Angeles! The cocktails were delish, the decor was a vibe. BUT they do not have air conditioning!

    First time dinning here with my family, our host Michaela (hoped I spelled it correctly) was amazing loved her positive vibes. The place was damn cute also its really great for a family night out or friends or just because. The food was bomb as well, the smash burger was our fave. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday they have entertainment, like DJ or fire dancing that usually starts at 8pm but after 9pm NO UNDER 21 I believe because of the hokka. This is really a great spot to celebrate an especial occasion. I would definitely come back, everything in this place is a great chill night from food, entertainment and even the staff. Good job Michaela...loved your happy and very positive attitude. Did not disappoint at all.

    The food was delicious but the service was so so. I went on Valentine's Day, and even though they were not busy at all, service was pretty bad. Staff was kind of rude and it took 30 minutes and multiple asks before we got our bill. However, they do have one of the best dirty martinis!

    Really nice space! I've been twice and both times got amazing waiters! Food taste good, cocktails - ok Atmosphere very interesting, cane easly evening it was calm and cozy and in an hour or so the lights dimmed, music got louder and then the dance ladies came out to entertain, very interesting experience! Parking valet or street, there is no parking lot, so thats the only minuse i would say. Would recommend this plave and would suggest to make a reservation especially at the end of the week!

    Best seating area if you are celebrating an event - upstairs by the bar.

    I feel like nightlife in LA has been slowly declining, but there are still a few spots that are absolutely thriving and this is one of them. You do need a reservation. Weeknights are manageable, but weekends are packed in the best way. Everyone shows up, the music is on point, and the energy is exactly what you want. The food is genuinely great (Omg order the pasta), and between valet and street parking, it's easy enough to get in and out. That said, I do think they could benefit from a Mon-Wed incentive because I selfishly love it here on a Monday night and want that same weekend energy. What really sets this place apart though is the service. The manager, Narek, is on another level! You'll see him doing everything. Bartending, hosting, checking on tables, running the floor. It's crazy. He's everywhere, and he makes sure you're taken care of. It's rare to see that level of hands on hospitality anymore. It's a true hotspot. Good looking crowd, great music, strong energy, and standout service. I also had my birthday here. Honestly, I can't think of another place on Ventura Boulevard right now that compares. If service is high on your list, Narek alone makes this place worth it. Enjoy!

    I found this place on TikTok, and was super excited to try. The restaurant is beautiful open roof and it was perfect weather. Their espresso martini was delicious, the food, everything we tried was delicious and waitress was great! Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Drinks: 10/10 I definitely recommend giving them a try really cute place for a date night or dinner with friends. I will be back next time I'm in LA.

    This place is cute, but pricey. I came on a Tuesday night and it was practically empty, yet the host tried to seat us in the very back corner. When we asked for a better table in the middle (again -- empty), she hesitated and said, "If we get busy, I'll have to move you." That was unnecessary and honestly gave off weird vibes. The ambiance inside is trendy with an island-lounge feel -- definitely nicer than it looks from the outside. The hookah was good, the waffle fries were great, and I enjoyed the burrata salad. So food-wise, no complaints. But when it came time to pay, I was pretty shocked. For a hookah, fries, a salad, and a bottle of water, the total came out to $150 after tip -- which feels insane for a casual hangout. The server brought over a card reader that just asks for a tip, but I was never shown an itemized bill, even though I selected the "print receipt" option. No receipt ever came, and when I asked for one, our server just disappeared. I genuinely don't know how that total was calculated -- and without a breakdown, I couldn't even verify whether gratuity was already included or if I double-tipped. Management should really address this; transparency with billing is basic customer service. Service overall was okay -- friendly at first, but we barely saw anyone after we got our food. I will say, I asked Shay to take a picture of us before we left and she was super sweet and helpful. She kind of saved this place from being rated even lower. Thanks Shay. The bathrooms were very clean, which was a plus. Parking can be tough, but they do offer valet. Would I come back? Maybe -- but only if they improve how they handle seating and receipts. A place this empty on a weekday shouldn't be this chaotic... or this expensive.

    I came earlier in the day so I didn't get to see the night time festivities that go on so I will have to return for that. The day time ambiance was laid back, our food was amazing, and our server was so nice and accommodating when helping us find a good drink. I would definitely return!

It was truly a journey through vintage wines, complemented by an expansive collection of whites, reds, roses, and even beer. There was something for every palate and the selection made the experience feel both intimate and exploratory. What surprised me most was the quality of the food! The risotto arancini was perhaps the best I've had in a long time: crispy on the outside, perfectly creamy inside, and incredibly flavorful. The charcuterie board was another highlight, filled with delightful surprises, including marmelade jam, fava bean chips, quality cheeses, and carefully selected meatss. Every bite brought something different to the table. Overall, this is a charming spot that combines great wine, surprisingly good food and genuinly quality service.

The setup is fast-casual style, where you order at the bar and then find a seat. The staff was excellent throughout the visit. They were patient, took the time to answer questions, and did a great job explaining the different wine options. They also let us sample a few wines before deciding, which I always appreciate. I ended up ordering the Rosso Veronese. It was dry overall but had a touch more sweetness than I expected, which made it easy to drink given I'm not much of a wine connoisseur. We also benefited from a special on the wine because it had been featured at an event the previous day. The space itself was comfortable and inviting. We grabbed a spot on one of the couches, which gave the evening a more relaxed feel compared to a typical wine bar setup. Pricing is about what you'd expect for a wine-focused spot. It's not inexpensive, but it didn't feel unreasonable either, especially considering the service and atmosphere. Between the knowledgeable staff, the opportunity to sample wines, and the comfortable setting, I'd happily come back and try a few more selections.

For starters, I think the pours were kind of lacking? Just feels like much smaller pours than I usually get at wine bars. The menu was pretty small, and apparently out of date because a few of the things we were interested in they didn't have that day. We also had like 3x different people serve us, so by the end of it I wasn't even sure who I should be asking for the check. My friend and I sat outside, so maybe the service would be better inside or at least at the bar, but it was just kind of... average at best. I think our waitress was new, so she wasn't really able to answer any questions, and the ones she did answer, ended up being corrected later. Which actually is TOTALLY fine, like I totally understand. But then when she brought our first wines, she accidentally knocked one over or hit it with the other glass or something (it happened fast) but it shattered one of the glasses spilling red wine everywhere, and even a drop on my white shirt!! She was suuuuuuper apologetic, and I can tell she felt bad, and we were not mad. We just kept saying that its okay and accidents happen. She did even bring me soda water for my shirt. Then, we asked if we can do the charcuterie plate with just cheese and no meats (we don't eat pork) and she said sure. She told us the number of cheeses to choose, we did, but then we got a lesser number served to us by a different waiter, and incorrect cheeses. He kindly brought one of the missing cheeses, but informed us that the lesser amount was actually the correct amount for this menu item. Okay, we would have chosen differently had we known that, but alright. Maybe I'm delusional, but between the cheese mixup and the wine spillage (and staining my white shirt), I kind of half expected a little something from them. Like comping one of the four glasses of wine, or maybe an extra little top off or something to say "hey sorry we're a mess today." I would never ASK for it, because as it was I felt bad for the girl who was new, so we just paid (and tipped of course) and left. Overall, its just nothing to write home about...

This small Spanish restaurant opened in September of 2025 and was having a very busy Sunday night when my son and I decided to come in for dinner. They have no parking, so we found a meter on Ventura Blvd. We walked in at 6:50pm and were greeted by Renee (one of the owners) who asked if we had a reservation. We didn't, so he offered us 2 seats at the bar. At first I was a bit hesitant since I was hoping to have a table service meal. Renee encouraged us to try the bar, saying it's still a great experience. Well, he was right! We got 2 nice seats at the corner of the bar and thankfully it wasn't too stuffy. Liana was working the bar and she's also the lovely girl who took care of us during our dinner. She was so sweet, pleasant, kind, knowledgeable and hardworking. She was able to expertly answer all our questions and made sure we were well looked after. She also kept our water glasses full throughout the whole dinner. We ordered quite a few different items and every single dish was OUTSTANDING! There seriously wasn't even one thing we didn't like. We devoured the crumbs on every plate. To start, we had the Dátiles (warm dates with Manchego cheese), followed by the Mushroom Pintxos (Mushroom and Goat Cheese Toast). We actually ended up ordering another order of the toast since I loved it so much. The dates were also delicious, and this is coming from someone who doesn't even like dates. Next up was the Tortilla Española, a classic Spanish dish. It was piping hot, fresh out of the skillet. Nice and fluffy inside, with some spicy aioli on the side that complimented it well. We also got the Calamares a La Plancha, which was also very flavorful and fresh. I'm a huge fan of seafood but never had calamari prepared like this. It was definitely a different experience than the deep fried version I'm used to, but I loved it all. The Gambas Al Ajillo was the next appetizer and it was simply fantastic. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and bursting with flavor. The sauce it came with was so yummy that we saved it to pour over the rice in our entree, the Carne. It's a hanger steak that comes with chimichurri and fries, however we asked for a substitute of rice instead of fries. This steak was cooked to PERFECTION. It was medium rare, just like we asked, and it was top notch quality. The rice and chimichurri also tasted great. It definitely hit the mark for a carnivore like myself. I will say that the wait time between the previous course and the steak was a bit long, and Liana apologized for it before we even said anything. We also shared a Red Sangria and it was DIVINE. It is clear to me that Unidos is a place full of love and passion. It's a very classy place, but in a very modern and relaxed way. It's chic, stylish, and sexy. All the food we ate is proof that everyone in the kitchen loves what they do and cares about what they put on your plate. Everything was super fresh and great quality, and I'm not just talking about the food. The service from everyone was superb! Starting from Renee, to Liana, to Gloria. She was the food runner for the whole restaurant by herself and she was doing an excellent job, quickly and efficiently getting everyone's food to the correct tables. Prices are a bit on the higher end, but appropriate for the quality of food and service. It was worth every penny and we will definitely be back! They have one gender neutral restroom and one women's restroom. Everything was beautiful and clean! There's also some patio seating. Thank you Renee, Liana, Gloria, and Unidos! 10/10!! HANDS DOWN!!

Although it didn't really necessarily show up as "the best food in LA area" but all the reviews were so good so I became curious to try. Mainly the reviews also raved about the vibes, services, and live music. Well, they were not wrong! It was fairly easy to make a reservation through Opentable, and I made a reservation for two people for my birthday dinner on Sunday night. I put on the notes that it's my bday so it'll be nice to get a nice table near the stage. I didn't have a high expectation, cos I'd never been to the place and I didn't make a call or anything. But wow, they definitely gave us a great table at the very front! As many reviewers had mentioned, the acoustic of the restaurant is really great. You can barely hear other people's conversations. There's a live jazz band playing, so you can really enjoy that. Although it made it slightly hard to hear what other nearby people say to you either, haha. Our server Dawson was a really great one! Very nice, very informative and just has a great vibe that made you feel comfortable to converse with him. We also asked if he could take a picture of us and he went above and beyond with taking our pictures haha. He took the table lamp as our additional "lighting". Such a great service! Dawson also made a few suggestions on food. We ordered the milk bun (so great!), the tiger prawns tostada (omg, my favorite of the night!), braised lamb pasta, pork belly risotto, and roasted broccolini. Everything was really good and really filled us up! We also got the "smokin old fashioned" and "Wake up and repeat" cocktails. It was plenty of food for us so we asked for a check. Dawson asked if we wanted a dessert but we were already full. He asked if it's ok to give us a lil treat for my bday. It was a really nice dessert :). Oh I forgot to mention that they also put a small bday card on the table for me. The prices of food and drinks are on the higher sides, but I feel like it's worth it due to the live music and the vibe. It easily covers the entertainment part. We definitely will go back and recommend this place for anyone who's looking into a nice date night or to celebrate something special. I was informed that Friday has more of a "party vibe" here, although it's still a jazz performance. Sunday feels more laid back :) Overall I'm really pleased by this place. I used to think that I don't care that much about excellent service as long as the food is great, but I was wrong. The excellent hospitality just made the night even better than expected. Thank you for making my bday dinner memorable.

    This place was on my list and we happen to pop in at 5pm but reservations are highly recommended…read more It was a little difficult to find because it's just a door without any signs, but I saw the valet guy pop out so we figured it was the entrance. The usually have a live band after 7pm and the sound in the resturant is amazing. It's like a recording studio. The staff was very friendly! The decor and ambiance was also impressive. Definitely swanky but down to earth vibes. I got the rasberry beret cocktail and it was different but fabulous. Not sure how else to describe it. It was refreshing. We got the tiger prawns and it was presented as a toasta, which had a great flavor and texture. The apple salad was also refreshing and a good portion to share between 2 people. The broccolini was cooked perfectly and my favorite after the tiger prawns was the Dungeness crab pasta. It had uni on top! The uni elevated the dish, and honestly there were a good amount of crab meat in the dish. Overall well balanced and creamy. The 2 of us left full and satisfied. Highly recommend this place for a date night. There's also plenty of street parking when we went but there is also valet for $15.
