    shop inside
    Jess L.

    Fries, steak, fish, pasta were delicious. The presentation and decor, style inside is cozy, intimate, and feels transformative. The interior makes you immersed in the dining experience it has a special way of taking you away into a dreamy atmosphere. I can see a dinner group hanging out for hours at this place. Will come back just to be in this restaurant again. Even has a little shop inside. Service was a laidback but it's okay I was in no rush.

    Quiche Lorraine
    Evan W.

    Dropped into Wally's for an impromptu late lunch on Sunday and found the place rockin'. Clearly, we were not the only ones with this idea, and with good reason: Wally's is an upscale and adult restaurant that's also casual and unpretentious. The staff is well-dressed, well-trained, and genuinely friendly; the host on duty, Bella, tended to us during our short wait, keeping us engaged and getting us seated just as soon as she could. The decor blends spartan industrial chic with dark wood accents that tempter what might be a cold environment, making it inviting and comfortable. Our server, Diego, got right to us, answered menu questions with good humor, and convinced the chef to make my wife a dinner-time dish when he discovered her first selection had run out. Bread service (on request) was artisan sourdough, hot from the oven, served with rich butter and a tiny mound of salt. Simple and very tasty. My wife's Cacio e Pepe was, by her estimation, the very best she's ever had. The al dente pasta was coated in a sharp Parmesan that was keenly offset by the sweetness of a Tomato Jam served on the side. A very well-balanced and satisfying bite. For my own part, the Quiche Lorraine was buttery and rich, and brimming with bacon and cheese. The lightly dressed salad alongside was a perfect foil, cutting the sharpness nicely. I must also mention that the folks next to us had a table full of yummy-looking, yummy-smelling food, from a cheese and charcuterie board to pizza, an omelet and beautifully prepared veggies. It would be easy to order everything on the menu across multiple visits -- and I'm already looking forward to my next time in.

    Caesar Salad with salmon
    Raina P.

    I've been to Wally's quite a few times over the years and have always been a fan. The cocktails are consistently solid, and the sandwiches have always been a go-to for me. It had been a while since my last visit, so I stopped by recently for a light late lunch. I ordered the Caesar salad with salmon added, and we also got a Caesar with steak on the side. I'll start with the positives -- the steak was honestly cooked perfectly. My friend ordered it medium (I usually go medium rare), and it was still super juicy, tender, and really well done. I also had a gin martini with blue cheese olives, and that was exactly what I wanted -- clean, cold, and the olives were fresh and flavorful. We sat outside, which was a nice touch with a good breeze and a lively Beverly Hills street scene. As for the food, the Caesar itself was good flavor-wise. I really loved the addition of fresh anchovies and the roasted zucchini -- that added a nice depth and made it feel a bit more elevated than a standard Caesar. The Parmesan crisps on top were also great, but they did end up covering most of the salad. That said, the portion felt surprisingly small. Once you got past the toppings -- the Parmesan, anchovies, and larger croutons -- it felt like there wasn't much actual lettuce underneath. For a ~$25 salad, it leaned more toward a side portion than a full entrée, which both of us noticed. The salmon, while cooked well and not dry, was pretty under-seasoned. It didn't have much flavor on its own and needed salt and pepper to bring it to life. Considering the price point (around $25+ as an add-on), I expected a bit more seasoning or intention there. We also shared the Iberico chorizo plate, which was a highlight. It came with sweet peppers, whole grain mustard, dried fruits, and bread -- everything paired really nicely and felt well thought out. Service was decent. Didn't feel friendly but wasn't the worst. Wasn't too concerned with that yesterday. Overall, I still really enjoy Wally's and will definitely be back. The ambiance, drinks, and overall experience are always strong. I just wouldn't order the Caesar as a full meal again if I'm actually hungry. With a slightly more generous portion and a bit more seasoning on the protein add-ons, it would be a standout.

    What isn't amazing about Wally's? From their amazing astronomically, mine boggling wine collection to the delicious food the amazing service and the amazing vibes without being pretentious. It's a really cool spot to go to happy hours. Always fun and I really do enjoy spending time here I've gone by myself and just sat at the bar and had a glass of wine and a little bite to eat. Wallys is one of those Places that you just can't go wrong at. I have not been to the Wallys in Santa Monica, but I'd like to try it. When you're conflicted as to what you like to eat the bartenders or your servers always have the best suggestions. I have never been steered wrong. Plus there's so much other fun stuff to do around Wally's. You cannot go wrong.

    Wally's Beverly Hills is definitely a scene. Every time I've gone it's loud, crowded, and very "see and be seen." The vibe feels kind of transactional with lots of influencers, sugar-daddy energy, and people dressed to impress. It can come off pretentious, but honestly... it's still fun to go for drinks and small appetizers or to catch up with girlfriends. That said, the food is good and I've had a good time when I've gone. It's not somewhere I'd go for a chill dinner. Pubic Parking structure is right to the restaurant can easily be missed but plenty of parking. I've had their crudo, salads, pizzas, charcuterie boards but the truffle lentils really surprised me. It's comforting and delicious. I wana go back just for that dish.

    We decided to have our company's holiday lunch and white elephant party at Wally's this year and just based on the appearance, the place looked pretty cool. I walked in and asked the hostess for my party and she said to go all the way to the end and turn right at the Christmas reef. The place is covered with wines all over the walls, a bar towards the entrance and these high tables set up in different sections of the restaurant. It looks very nice and the place was spotless. I end up in a hallway and ask another employee where my party was and he directs me to a room behind sliding doors. I slide open the doors and there's this gorgeous room decorated with wine bottles on the walls, white decorations and big candles on the tables. Our party ordered drinks and the menu was a prefixed 3-course meal that consisted of: Purple and blue salad - 2/5 It had too much vinegar in the salad Truffle Pizzetta - 5/5 This was the hit! Everyone liked it. This went fast. New York Strip 2/5 The steak was a little cold and rare. I didn't complain because some people liked their steak that way. Chicken Paillard - 2/5 This was ok. It was very soft but tasted like first class airplane food. Twice Fried Smashed Fingerling Potatoes - 5/5 This was so good! It came with house made ketchup that they made with cinnamon. Delicious! Toasted Vanilla Creme Brûlée 4/5 This was my favorite dessert. I love crème brûlée and they didn't disappoint here. Very good! Chocolate Fondant - 2/5 I'm not a fan of dark chocolate and this is that lol. Wally's Mojo - 4/5 The mix of vodka, pineapples and berries was on point! Nice and refreshing drink that had your boy feeling a little tipsy. I wanted two but my boss was there lol Overall, I pretty much only liked the pizza, potatoes, crème brûlée and the cocktail. It's a cool little spot but I'm not sure I'll be making my way back here again. There are a lot of other cool restaurants in Beverly Hills I'd rather dine at. OOO 3 out of 5 Afros

    We celebrated Mother's Day at Wally's yesterday. Each mom was treated to a glass of wonderful champagne and wished a Happy Mother's Day by numerous staff members. Reservations were honored in a timely manner even though the restaurant was packed. There were six of us and we sat at a high top table which I prefer because the chairs actually have backs. Service was outstanding and the food was fantastic as always. Two of us had the Caprese Sandwich with heirloom tomato, dijon-sun dried tomato pesto, arugula, basil, buffalo mozzarella, and chicken on ciabatta. Two of us had my favorite-Grilled Cheese with aged gruyere, gouda, shallot chutney, with bacon added on country bread. This is my favorite sandwich-anywhere! We also had a Truffle Eggs Benedict, and a Charcuterie Board with two cheeses and duck mousse. and an order of Truffle Fries with grated parmesan, truffle oil, and grated truffle. Everyone enjoyed their brunch. I even brought home half of my grilled cheese for lunch today! I love Wally's and that grilled cheese is one of my top 10 sandwiches in the city!

    Jay was excellent from start to finish. He was incredibly attentive, professional & made the entire experience feel elevated without ever being overbearing. His wine recommendations paired perfectly with our dinner and genuinely made the meal even better. You can tell he really knows what he's doing and cares about creating a great experience for his guests. Thank you for such an awesome night Jay!! we'll absolutely be back

    Pricey, but worth it for a special occasion. Even if you're not trying to splurge, this place leans expensive -- but it's a perfect spot for a memorable date or celebration. The intimate atmosphere makes it feel cozy yet sophisticated, and I'm always drawn to the stunning wine wall. I've discovered some amazing wines here that I probably wouldn't have tried otherwise. Pair a glass with a beautifully arranged charcuterie board, and you've got an experience that feels both indulgent and effortless.

    Ben is excellent!!! He was attentive, kind and prompt. He radiates positive energy and gave us an excellent dessert recommendation which is the pistachio ganache 100% recommend!! I will be back again. Ambience is dim lit and relaxed. Love the wine cellar decoration

    Food was delicious but unfortunately my friends and I had a very unpleasant experience. To start, we waited a long time to place our order despite the restaurant not being very busy. In addition, when one of my friends briefly opened her laptop for a work emergency, we were approached and told about a "no screen" policy. We tried to be understanding, though it was confusing to see children at other tables still using iPads. Lastly, as we were finishing our meal, one of the staff members cleared our plates even though we were not done eating. When we addressed it, he did not apologize and instead said he was "going to change the plate," even though we had no additional food coming. Overall, the experience felt dismissive and uncomfortable for us. Not only did we feel rushed, we felt disrespected. I highly recommended Wally's to my friends who were visiting from Indonesia only to receive such disappointment. food: 4/5 price: 4/5 ambience: 4/5 service: 1/5 (SERVICE HONESTLY IS SO BAD - i have not been to a high end restaurant that gives this kind of service before, smh)

    I have eaten at the Wally's in Las Vegas and I was interested to see how the Wallys in Beverly Hills fared when a client invited me to lunch. Wally's is a huge space with its wine market and various tables along massive walls of wine. Excellent service and while they only have salads and some entrees for those gluten intolerant, I chose the CHICKEN SALAD DE LA MANCHA - escarole, chorizo, quince paste, piquillos, almond, olive, toasted-garlic + burnt-lemon dressing, manchego. Totally delicious from first bite to last. Coupled with a great glass of wine this was ample and tasty. Unlike many restaurants perhaps due to the space, there was not the loud noise that can mar enjoying the dining experience. Wally, you done well!

The decor was modern chic on the outside and the inside decor was different on the inside- hipster cafe with quotes. The food itself was unbelievable! The pricing is on the higher side but worth it given the taste! We had bone marrow which had a nice buttery flavor; the Beef bourguignon was tender and well flavored; and their house special Black cod (available only for one week) was so flavorful and cooked delicately that it melted in our mouths! It was the best fish we ever tasted and we didn't even know fish could taste like that!!! We also recommend the mango passionfruit lemonade. Not too sweet and tasted very fresh.

The sole ripped from the bottom and was hanging by a thread. As the valet went to get me duct tape, a woman from the front desk came out to me and strangely gave me a hard time for waiting for the valet? It was such a bizarre encounter. This same person brought my friend and I to the elevator to be brought up to the rooftop bar, and she was rude and stand off-ish (zero sense of humor around my whole talking shoe incident). That should've been my first sign that the service generally was going to be what missed the mark. When we got to the rooftop bar at the time of our reservation, no one was at the bar or the host stand. The view did not disappoint, so there was that! But the service was terrible; with only 4 tables occupied, it took a while for our order to be taken, and the food and cocktails were fine. I had the spicy tacos (fine), my friend the poke bowl (standard) and the beverages, watered down. We had the chocolate mousse dessert and it's the first dessert in my lifetime I couldn't finish - it was inedible. As we were wrapping out, it was very confusing when the waiter asked us to start a tab (we were about to leave) and then my friend had to ask to be closed out. TL;DR if you are a patient person who prefers views over service and settles for fine, overpriced food, then go to Poza for a sunset drink. Otherwise, I think there are better places in the neighborhood to enjoy a similar experience

The tomatoes and cheese taste incredibly fresh, and whatever magical spread they put on it... I need the recipe because WOW. This is a refreshing sandwich! The Sea-trus salad is another favorite. It somehow manages to be light, refreshing, and still filling. The lox and veggies are unbelievably fresh and everything just works together perfectly. Love the lightness of the dressing. This will not disappoint! If I'm in the mood for something a little heartier, I go for the tomato soup and half truffle grilled cheese. I LOVE this combo. The truffle flavor is spot on and not overpowering at all. Comfort food done right. Now for the best part... dessert (my personal weakness). The canelés are my obsession. I actually buy multiple little bags of the mini ones to have with my morning coffee. They remind me of the perfect cross between crème brûlée and French toast. Crispy outside, soft center, absolute perfection. The St. Honoré is a little pricier, but worth every penny and I usually order more than one. The cream is light with a subtle vanilla flavor and those little pastry puffs on top are pure magic. This is more of an elegant, delicate dessert rather than something rich and intense. And then... yesterday I tried a chocolate dessert for the first time and I wish I remembered the name because I have not stopped thinking about it. It was a chilled circular chocolate mousse covered in chocolate with hazelnut and it was honestly PERFECTION. I don't even know how to describe it properly. Rich, smooth, balanced... I had it with coffee and it was one of those desserts you immediately plan on ordering again before you've even finished it. This is more of a rich dessert! Beyond the food, the owner and staff are incredible. They are warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely make this place feel special. You can tell they care deeply about the experience, not just the food, and it shows in everything they do. Amazing food, amazing people, and somehow every visit makes me love this place even more. :D

    Ludivine Paris Bakery is a DIVINE exquisite French bakery where the pastries are ART--elegant,…read moreprecise, and almost too beautiful to eat. The space is LOVELY, chic and cozy and thoughtfully designed, creating a calm atmosphere even when it's busy. The staff is exceptional, so lovely, and the overall experience feels very welcoming and relaxing. I was so grateful to get to spend time here and work when I first landed in Los Angeles this trip. I also appreciate that you can sit outside and enjoy the beautiful California sunshine, which always make the experience even better. It's entirely possible to spend an afternoon here people watching just like you would in Paris. Soy milk isn't offered which I would love since oak milk is so yucky and not good for you. You can't visit Los Angeles without stopping stopping by this bakery - thank you so much!

    Went to Zinqué over the weekend with my girlfriend and niece, and it reminded me why I keep coming…read moreback. This was probably my third visit, and I always order "Le Bowl" -- it hits the spot every single time. This visit, I also tried the iced hojicha latte (basically a toasted matcha latte) and OMG... absolutely amazing. What really made the experience stand out was our server. I can't remember his name, but he was so warm and joyful. Every time he came to the table, his smile and energy were infectious. Zinqué is also one of the better reasonably priced options at Century City if you want something nicer than the food court without spending a fortune. They don't have a dedicated kids menu, but they were still able to accommodate my niece and she was very happy with her meal. Overall, such a great experience yet again.

    Came here on Memorial Day to celebrate my bestie's birthday and upon arrival there was no hostess…read more(FYI I've been here countless times and am used to getting seated) so we had to flag someone down to ask and was told to sit anywhere and order via QR code (which I thought was new since I never had to do this before) so we did. Regarding service, it took about 10-15 mins for just our drinks to come out and while waiting, we asked our server if they have birthday freebies and someone named Josh said they have something special they could do. Our food order came out within 20ish mins and we had to ask for utensils but they only gave two pairs (there's four of us but we just made do since we were starving). I've always liked the food at Zinque, and the ambiance has always been a cool vibe. However, the problem was when our server (not Josh but another guy) brought out a nice, small piece of cake with ice cream and candle, and then immediately whipped out a card reader and proceeded to charge us for it (INCLUDING THE CANDLE!). We tried to contest it and let them know we weren't told there would be a charge and our server blatantly looked at us and, with a callous attitude, said "we can discount it but that's the best we can do." I understand that the restaurant may have been short staffed today but I don't think that should excuse the poor service (especially since I've received excellent service here plenty of times in the past!). All my foodie reviews are positive and for this to be my first negative one says a lot. Very disappointed and will not be coming back.
