I ordered: - fried chicken: the best fried chicken I've had in a long time! So crispy, juicy and packed with flavor. - biscuit: delicious! Buttery and flakey. Not dry at all. The butter it comes with was so good! - Yams: so much flavor! - Mac and cheese: creamy and cheesy. Not watery at all. Perfect texture and flavor. - cobbler: so much flavor! Nice and warm. I wish there was more crust but other than that it was perfect. This was the best way to end the meal! I would definitely come back when in the area.

Ok Sonmari did not disappoint at all. The food was so good. If you go, you HAVE to try the miso…read moreclam chowder, it's a must. Uni toast was also amazing, sake was great, and all the rolls we got were on point. But honestly the service is what made the night. Hostess, server, even the chef came by our table to check on us personally. You could tell everyone actually cared, not just going through the motions. Also valet parking?? Such a nice touch. Definitely coming back, highly recommend to anyone craving good sushi.

My friend and I came here at 2 PM on a Sunday and this was the earliest reservation for lunch they…read morehad the day of. The inside of the restaurant has a modern and cozy interior that has the vibe of an izakaya/upscale sushi bar. For food we ordered the clam chowder, the Sonmari lunch set, and the shrimp Sonmari and bossam Sonmari. The food itself is very interesting and flavorful. The clam chowder has a light yet impactful flavor to the broth. For each of the Sonmari rolls, each one was unique in its own way with my favorite being the bossam. Overall, Sonmari has the elements of an upscale and cozy Japanese eatery, although I must say the portions and items are a bit overpriced.

Been wanting to try Dunsmoor for months and I finally had my chance. The hype is 90% real…read more First off - yes, the cornbread is amazing. Warm, sweet, great flavor, buttery and crispy. Absolute perfection. Next time, I'm ordering two. The pork and green chile stew was also very tasty. It was tender, hearty, and felt super cozy. It wasn't, however, something I'd absolutely HAVE to order again (the cornbread is). The Carolina rice was the one thing I didn't thoroughly enjoy. It was a little too seafood-forward for my palate and not something I'd want to have again. My entree was the porkchop with a side of their buttery chive mashed potatoes. The porkchop was the best porkchop I've ever had in my life. Ever. Cooked to perfection, perfectly seasoned. I went a little feral and downright chewed at the bone. It was so, so good. Dessert was the sticky date pudding and that was also very delicious. Service was friendly but a little slow. All in all, I'm absolutely looking forward to coming back. I've got their ribeye on my radar for my next time.

Extremely overrated and overpriced! Walk in or even outside and you can feel the pretentiousness…read morealmost immediately. We waited quite a while for a couple seats at the bar (reservations are really difficult to find here) and once we sat we were met with a waitress with a severely brusque demeanor. Anyway, we started with the bluefin tuna toast which I could make myself at home. Not worth $25. We also got the "legendary" Edna's sour milk cornbread which I was so excited about but it did not live up to the hype. I found it rather dry- to enjoy it you must drench it in honey and butter. We ended with a steak that arrived surprisingly cold while the fries were piping hot. It's just another overhyped LA restaurant!

Came in with no expectations, but was pleasantly surprised by our experience here! Came with a…read moreparty of 5 people and ordered the following: DISHES (* denotes favorite/would order again) - *Mezzi Rigatoni Carbonara: not your average carbonara, but was delicious nonetheless. The rigatoni was cooked perfectly al dente - *Duck Pappardelle: a table favorite! The duck was plentiful and was enjoyed by all. The pappardelle was a little too soft for some people at the table, but I personally enjoy a wide, flat noodle. - Linguine al Limone: lemony and bright. I only wish there was a protein (like seafood?) with this to help enhance the flavor - Margherita pizza: Classic and delicious. The crust was delicious on this slice. - *Mushroom pizza: Toppings were generous and we all liked the mushrooms. Our crust in particular was a little on the burnt side, but we just picked off the areas that were more blackened. - *Green Beans: served chilled which provided a nice brightness to our dishes - Grilled Broccolini: good bite and also helped break up the meal Overall the dishes were easy to be shared and we left pretty full. Prices are also pretty reasonable for the amount of food that we got. PARKING Street parking only, but it wasn't too difficult to find parking on the street.

This place is located in a residential area. I didn't have any issues with parking, thankfully. Food: the food was pretty good! The dish that stood out to me was a tomato cucumber salad. The dressing was fantastic and it's just a really fresh and delicious salad. We also ordered the green beans salad which felt a little heavier than I would have liked. It was still decent though. We split the focaccia sandwich. Honestly, the potatoes were stand out lol. The focaccia itself was pretty good. I prefer it a bit crispy on the outside, but that's just my preference. It's a perfect sandwich to split! Flavors were good, but could be a little bit more flavorful. Definitely tasted fresh though. Got the clean slate mocktail. There was a bit too ginger for my liking, so probably would not get that in the future. My sister knew a little bit more about the history of this place. Apparently they lost their liquor license so have a very full-fledged mocktail menu. This place is perfect for a lunch and/or pregnant ladies lol. All in all, the food was very fresh. Robert, our waiter was kind and gracious. I kind of wish he was a little bit more transparent about some of the dishes, but still great experience overall Will definitely return!
