The food is delicious, taking care of…read morethe bill (if you need to split it and handle it individually) is easy peasy - you can each place your own order, all or the items are large enough to share a bit with everyone, and the ambiance is great! Oh AND the servers are friendly and attentive! Oh AND outdoor seating is available. WIN! Came on a Saturday morning around 11, thought it'd be superrrrrr crowded but my party of 4 actually got seated pretty quickly - within 15 min. Of course last time was a different story, so it's hit or miss! But worth the wait! We tried lots of items and again, all delicious and generous portions. Large enough to share and parking wasn't a nuisance (thank you neighborhood!). Will be back of course!

If you're heading to Blu Jam, come prepared with two qualifications: (1) a healthy appetite and (2)…read moredecent tech skills. The dining experience has changed quite a bit. Ordering is now done through your phone, or, if you're like me and prefer human interaction, you can walk up to the counter and place your order there. Unfortunately, the traditional waiter-service (although there was a bottle of water on the table) experience is gone, which took away some of the charm that restaurants used to offer. For me, that was a bit of a disappointment. Ironically, I still found myself tipping the cashier. As for the food, there were some highlights. My wife's avocado toast was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. My chilaquiles were tasty as well, but not without issues. The eggs were cooked over easy and were much runnier than I would have preferred, and the chicken portion was surprisingly sparse. Overall, the meal was good, but the experience felt a little less personal than it used to. The food still has its moments, but I have to admit, I liked the old Blu Jam better.

Pluses: amazing customer service ( they called me back within 5 minutes the most) . Great , most delicious pizza, I can't stop eating it!!! So different and crisp , flavor was amazing!!! I ordered mushroom and meat pizzas ( it was a hit) I'm a fan . Pricy but worth it for something out of ordinary and tasty . Minus: ( just being honest) I ordered turkey bolognese . Had good flavor but pasta was way overcooked, not enough cheese. Overall a good place to try something different in a valley!!!! Definitely the best customer service and tasty, crispy pizza

TLDR: 3.5/5 good concept of a meal but not much to actually really eat?…read more I've had Goop before and was presently surprised so when I thought of it again I went for it. Ordered: Miso Salmon Bento box - 3/5 1. The bento box portion was way smaller than any other bento box I've received. Saying I had half a cup of rice was probably generous next to my sliver of a overcooked salmon. Just each piece of the box overall was quite tiny. I was probably hungry by the next hour. 2. It was tasty but the flavors were weird, both separate and together. They clashed in my opinion. 3. The rice was hard, again the salmon was overcooked. The best was probably the $7 seven minute egg. Very tasty. But otherwise nothing to write home about. I prefer their salads so far. Some pros: Delivery was good and ultimately I did get everything that was listed so always a plus!

Instagram pictures are perfection and the food looks very appetizing. The place is Nice looking Instagram worthy. Super clean and inviting . Smells clean. The waitresess are super sweet and helpful. You might ask. Why the 1 star review. Well.... I ordered chilaquiles. The ones that come with green and red salsa.. i wanted to see which salsa was better. Green salsa is a beautiful flavor tangy lil spicy well seasoned. But it was just green salsa poured over chips.. not incorporated and cooked together. The red salsa was well seasoned spicy and smokey. Not sure if they uses chile morita or Chipotle. Same thing salsa just poured over chips.. i mean I can enjoy some crispy chilaquiles but that was just straight up chips and salsa. The beans on the side were also really good. The "steak" was carne picada.. and honestky it was a bit hard. My chilaquiles did not come with cheese or crema . So I asked the waitress if they weren't supposed to come with . She was very apologetic and brought ke some on the side... ummmmm. Didnt taste the same as it would've already been added to the plate. Then. While I was eating the chips with salsa on my plate I pull it of the plate and what do I see. A freaking nasty ass hair!! honestly its been hrs since I left and im still queasy. I called over one of the waitresss that was available and she said it was from the egg. Ummmmm seriously. From the egg. It was about 5inches long. How could it be from the egg. She freaking passed me off. Whe she saw my face she said she was gonna call her supervisor who was the waitess that I had from the start. She was super embarrassed and apologized.. she took my plate to the back and in fact came back to say it was a hair. "If I wanted anything else".. ummmm hell no!!! I know shit has to to with cheese and and wasn't good t3t£appens .. but damn. 1st no sour cream and cheese in my food. Then the hair ugh no thanks.. im certain I will not be back... super disappointed.

When in Sherman oaks this has become one of my go-to spots for flavorful Mediterranean food. My must-order items are the hummus, Brussels sprouts, Moroccan fried chicken, rice, and of course the pita you absolutely have to get the pita. I've also tried the watermelon salad, which was excellent, though I think it's seasonal. The fried cauliflower, however, is a hard pass for me. Something about the Brussels sprouts here is next-level, they're honestly some of the most flavorful I've ever had in my life. I could easily eat the whole dish myself. I also love that many items come as small plates, which makes them perfect for sharing. The Moroccan fried chicken is another standout it is super flavorful and pairs perfectly with the rice, hummus, and pita. Now, the service is where this place falls short. The last few times I've visited, the experience hasn't been great. The older blonde woman with very short hair has been particularly unpleasant, and when I visited the week before Thanksgiving, the overall service was especially bad. They have parking in the back and it's shared with other businesses and it is a paid parking so you pay at the little parking kiosk. Even with the inconsistent service, the food keeps me coming back. All in all, Mizlala is a great place for delicious dishes, and I would still recommend it just be prepared for service that can be hit or miss.
