    dorade fish
    Rudy R.

    If you're in Beverly Hills, especially along North Canon Drive, you're surrounded by some truly incredible restaurants. I happened to be making an early morning delivery down the street at Allo and had always been curious about Wally's $39 lunch prix fixe menu. Honestly, it sounded almost too good to be true. I walked in right when they opened at 11:32 a.m. and grabbed a seat at the bar. My bartender and server, Shaline A., absolutely made my day. She was warm, welcoming, attentive, and provided genuine hospitality from start to finish. I started with the Caesar salad (with anchovies). Personally, I think a traditional Caesar should always have anchovies they're part of what makes it so special. For my entrée, I had the dorade fish], and it was beautifully prepared. Every bite reflected the quality and attention to detail that Wally's is known for. To finish, I enjoyed the cheese plate featuring a truffle cheese that day. Let me tell you... A+! It was the perfect ending to an outstanding meal. From the service to the food and the overall experience, Wally's exceeded my expectations. The $39 prix fixe lunch is an incredible value for the quality you receive. I highly recommend stopping by, and I'll definitely be back.

    We were looking for a place to grab desserts and a drink so we hopped on to Wally's The dessert is truly amazing and the apple shaped cheese cake is really blowing my mind and so delicious We are sitting outside but our server is really nice and hospitable The whole vibe is very chill and fun, so we had a great time there

    Always a fan favorite. First time at the BH location and like any other sites always packed. Stopped for light lunch and ended up staying a bit and prob had a few more drinks than should have. Can't recall what we drank so will have to get back to you once I receive the info. Food I remember was better in the past but maybe it was our selection. The Purple and Blue salad was very rich in the color (love) made of roasted beets, blueberries, red cabbage and cucumber bites that was topped with blue cheese. Dressing was a rich balsamic and olive oil which I thought was on the heavy side so felt the salad was more in the soggy side. The Wally burger with fries was also good. Basic burger. Felt the bun was a little dry. Fries were delicious! Overall still one of my favs to hang out and host outings.

    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.

    OMG! one of my top 15 restaurants in Beverly Hills! drinks, food, and service PHENOMENAL! a chill spot to grab drinks and vibe! :)

    Forgot the exact name, but it was a mushroom pasta

    Place deserves a five for vibezz alone. You meet really cool people here always. I've had the mushroom pasta (yummy) and the baked bree (a fan favorite). I'll always come back to this place It's that cool neighborhood spot.

    The charcuterie and cheese board is huge -- easily enough for two, and everything on it was worth eating. The wagyu salami was the standout for me. The wine list is enormous and the staff let you take your time with it instead of hovering. Service was attentive without being pushy, which I appreciated. One wish: a bigger selection of non-alcoholic wines. Other than that, I'll be back.

    Came here for dinner with my girl friends and had such a great time! The lychee martini was delicious, the Caesar salad is one of my favorites in town, and the lobster was divine! The atmosphere was perfect for a girls' night, and the service was attentive throughout the evening. Such an enjoyable dinner and I'd definitely come back!

    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.

    Came in for a charcuterie board and it did not disappoint. The Manchego was nutty and firm, the Prairie Breeze Cheddar a little sweet with that crunch and the "5J" Lomo Ibérico de Bellota easily the best thing on the plate. Drank the Sancerre, Ronsard 'La Pléiade' 2024 it was crisp and citrusy. Staff were friendly and the room is warm and lively, bottles everywhere, great energy but you can still talk.

    We decided to take family who was visiting from out of town to Wally's for dinner and this was a wonderful evening. I had an old fashion to drink which was made very well and I recommend others try it. The server was friendly and attentive making sure we were taken care of. The restaurant itself was at maximum capacity so it's not a place I feel would be good for an intimate date if you're looking for a private place to have an intimate one on one conversation.

    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.

    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.

    Darling was on my list to try ever since I read about it on Eater. It eventually became one of 2…read morerestaurants that were the focus of my recent staycation in the West Hollywood/Beverly Grove area, the other was perennial favourite A.O.C. I was familiar with chef/owner (and James Beard Award winner) Sean Brock, having dined at two of his Husk restaurants (Charleston and Nashville), where he first gained fame and accolades. He is no longer affiliated with Husk or some other Nashville restaurants, but still has a pizza place there, so he is still bi-coastal. I can't say what drew him to SoCal, but is clearly enamored of our bountiful produce and purveyors, which he integrates into his "Heritage Southern", often live-fire, cooking. He's apparently quite a music lover also, hence the live DJ all-vinyl booth in the bar/lounge. Darling is on the northern end of Robertson between Melrose and Sunset. Many restaurants of note are nearby, including The Abbey, Craig's, SushiSamba. Many, including Darling, do not have valet parking, so that can be an endeavor you should allow time for. Darling is a pretty large, gorgeous and airy space, divided into an open-air-ish lounge/bar and a dining room towards the rear, which in turn is divided into 2 sections. The space used be the restaurant Soulmate, and looking at old pics still up on Yelp, it is clear many of the design features were repurposed for Darling, including the beautiful wood-beamed ceiling and booths in the dining room, the olive tree and retractable roof in the lounge, and the exterior. The impressive mural in the dining room appears new, as is the DJ booth. The weather was in the 90's during my visits, so the more A/C-controlled dining room was my choice for seating. Darling serves dinner Wed-Sat and brunch Sundays, so of course I had to try both. There's also a small Happy Hour menu Wed-Sat in the lounge/bar. Here's the lowdown: Dinner 1) Deviled eggs. A classic Southern snack, bougied up with bluefin tuna belly. Delish, with a slight kick, but just 2 per order. 2) Abalone and rice stew. Another winner (and smallish portion). Earthy, yet light, topped with a confit egg yolk. 3) The Darling dry-aged steak burger. Just 24 served per day. The stellar meat is a blend of 3 types of beef, mostly dry-aged prime, cooked over the live-fire grill. It was served simply with ketchup, cheese, raw onion and Dijonnaise , allowing the beef to shine. Served without accompaniments. 4) Sliced tomatoes with buttermilk dressing and tomato vine vinegar. A simple and refreshing taste of summer. 5) Blackberry sorbet Eton mess. Delish sorbet that was the perfect blend of sweet and tart. Eton mess is whipped cream and meringue shards. The Texas deer skewers and Anson Mills cornbread were also of interest to me; another time. Brunch 1) Sonora wheat pancakes. Pretty classic, with crispy edges, fancy Maison Bordier butter and maple syrup. 2) 5-fat fried chicken. Also available on the Happy Hour menu. I was told the chicken was heavily spiced, but not heat-spicy. Its red-orange hue made me pause with fear, but it was exactly as described. The seasoning is quite chili powder-forward (Ancho chili?). The chicken is boneless thigh meat (my fave chicken part), just like the Spanish fried chicken at A.O.C. Served with a vinegary hot sauce (didn't use), honey (used it all) and an assortment of pickles. The 5 fats used are chicken fat, lard, country ham, bacon fat and smoked butter. Quite different from A.O.C.'s version; apples and oranges. Try them both. 3) Watermelon sorbet with Bonny melon and lemon verbena. Another sorbet winner, even more refreshing with the melon. Their cocktail and wine offerings seem pretty extensive. My zero-proof pineapple concoction was fine and delish; I had it at both meals. Service and staff was excellent and oh so friendly--hostess, servers, busboys, manager. I wish I remembered the names of my servers for shout-outs; their names didn't appear on my checks. Speaking of checks, you have the option of paying via QR code or with a traditional paper check and table-side hand-held gizmo. I did both and recommend the traditional method to avoid the $3.99 "Platform Fee" for using the QR code. Lastly, I found the music pleasant and mostly retro (the DJ usually puts the album currently spinning on display), but very loud. Guests were yelling in order to converse. Hope to return, and maybe see Chef Sean DJ-ing.

    I was hoping to like Darling because I love the hifi bar concept and the ambience was indeed nice,…read morebut the food did not pull its weight. We got deviled eggs topped with tuna belly, which made a convincing case for deviled eggs without tuna belly. The steak burger was hearty, but the way it was seasoned and dressed was so vinegar forward that it made it hard to enjoy. The fries were great--chunky and crispy. However, the $24 cucumber salad was so awful I'm shocked they would serve it. First, there were genuinely 6 cucumber slices, so more like a leafy green salad with cucumbers and hardly a "cucumber salad." But even those 6 were wet and mushy, as though they'd been sitting in the fridge for too long. The fact that this dish made it through the garde manger, sous chef, head chef, and even the servers without anyone stopping it does not bode well for the longevity of this restaurant.

And, Miami. And even at the marinas in San Diego, San Francisco, and Sausalito. The Henry is very large and open, yet, with all the light streaming in, the soft blues and greys keep the atmosphere sophisticated, subdued, and cool. You immediately feel the calm and these days, especially in the city, we can use a good deal of decompressing. It was almost an audible "aaaahhhhh" that my brain whispered when we sat down at our roomy booth. We were there for brunch and the menu was wonderful for me, a lifelong vegetarian. There were multiple items I wanted to try but I usually stick to an appetizer, main, dessert, and beverage. I am not a big eater at one sitting. Between us, everything we ordered was superb. The descriptions were pretty familiar, but the tastes were elevated. And the presentations were unique too -- see my photos. Michael, our server, was efficient but warm and friendly too. That makes such a difference. From beginning to end he took care of us, checking occasionally to get our enthusiastic thumbs-up, and then bringing us sturdy containers and a roomy thick shopping bag to take home the leftovers. We stuffed ourselves but still took home half of the generous portions we were given. The tab was beyond reasonable too, especially for Beverly Hills! Nice music -- not too loud, just enough to give a cheerful vibe in the background; clean appointments; quality furnishings; giant spotless windows; pretty wallcoverings; comfortable seating -- everything was just right, Goldilocks-worthy. This is the kind of place to return to again and again. Garage parking at the complex for $15 was so easy, clean surroundings in the neighborhood with some famous retail nearby for browsing, just 40 minutes from home. IOW, perfect!

    I really wanted to love The Henry, but overall it was just okay. The restaurant itself has a nice…read moreatmosphere, but unfortunately the food didn't quite match the experience. We tried the pasta bolognese, mac & cheese, and filet with asparagus and a loaded potato. Everything looked fine, but for a restaurant at this price point, I expected much more in both presentation and flavor. The dishes were fairly basic and nothing really stood out or made me want to order it again. The filet was cooked well but missing a char and flavor, but the overall plate felt a little uninspired, and the pastas were missing that richness and depth of flavor I was hoping for. Not a bad meal by any means, but when you factor in the price and expectations, it just didn't deliver for me.

    Located in the heart of West Hollywood area, this spot is definitely worth a visit. Lots of bar you…read morecan go to after dinner to check out. Parking can be a little challenging, but valet service is available if you prefer the convenience. The seating is outdoors, so I'd recommend bringing a jacket or sweater, especially in the evening. The ambiance is perfect for a first date or a romantic date night with your significant other. If you can make it Monday through Thursday, don't miss their happy hour--it's one of the best deals in town. Everything we ordered, from the appetizers and entrées to the desserts, was absolutely delicious. You can tell the chef takes great pride in every dish. Overall, I give this place 5 stars. Great atmosphere, amazing food, and a wonderful dining experience. I'll definitely be coming back!

    This restaurant is very dear to me, I celebrated my 70th birthday here with 25 of my closest…read morefriends and family. I had lunch last week with a friend and was so disappointed!. The outdoor space is still beautiful, but , unfortunately the LOUD music ruins the ambiance. People have to scream to hear their table mates. So we asked to be transferred indoors. Music still loud but less people screaming. the indoor space has been poorly maintained, floors are worn out, everything looks, well, old. Food: fried calamari... well cooked, tender, totally flavorless. Caesar Salad with chicken... VERY little dressing (we had to request more as well as salt and pepper, the chicken... dry as cardboard. The only good thing about this experience was the attentive waitress, unfortunately I didn't ask her name. What a disappointment!

    My experience at Spago's in Beverly Hills was absolutely amazing. The food far exceeded my…read moreexpectations with respect to flavor, seasoning and presentation. I ordered the Brazino and the braised Short Ribs. I've had Brazino at various locations in the past and without question, this was the best I've had thus far. It was extremely large and sat atop a dark colored delicious sauce which, was outstanding. The short ribs were tender, had great flavor and were cooked perfectly. Other than the food being exceptional and the table service on point, the highlight of the evening was when owner, operator and celebrity Chef Wolfgang Puck stopped by to say hello and inquired about my meal. This spoke volumes of his commitment to customer satisfaction and his willingness to interact with those who visit his establishment. Well done!

    I really wanted to be wowed by Spago. With the Wolfgang Puck name, the reputation, and the price…read morepoint, expectations are naturally high. Unfortunately, my experience landed more in the "it was fine" category than memorable fine dining. The evening started promisingly with cocktails and beautifully presented small bites. Presentation throughout dinner was polished, and there's no question that a lot of thought goes into how everything arrives at the table. The bread service was elaborate and visually impressive, and several of the smaller bites were interesting. But as the meal progressed, I kept waiting for that one dish that would make me understand the hype. The truffle pizza certainly looked luxurious--and they weren't shy with the truffles--but even that didn't deliver the knockout flavor I expected. It was good. Just...good. At this level, I was expecting something I'd still be talking about the next day. That's really how I felt about the overall meal. Nothing was necessarily bad. The ingredients seemed high quality, the plating was sophisticated, and the experience had all the elements of upscale dining. It simply didn't translate into food that excited me. And when you're dining at a restaurant with Spago's reputation, "just okay" feels more disappointing than it would somewhere else. Service and atmosphere were polished, but ultimately I'm reviewing the entire experience relative to the expectations and price point. I'm glad I finally experienced Spago for myself, but would I rush back? Probably not. There are too many exceptional restaurants where I've left genuinely excited about what I just ate.
