Best Casual Restaurants in Los Angeles / Orange County

A very nice restaurant. Unfortunately, there was a very strong storm and we had to take everything in hand. This made the room a little louder. The personal service was very accommodating. I would definitely go back.

Really awesome experience! Maria S was our server and she was the sweetest. It was my mom’s bday and we just decided to go for lunch. Didn’t realize there wasn’t valet parking for lunch so went in circles trying to figure out parking - park in the visitor underground parking garage of the US bank building. Restaurant will validate 2 hours of parking for $10 (instead of $40). Loved all the food. Ceviche was fresh, the pasta appetizer felt like a huge portion, hanger steak and smashed fried potatoes were divine, and the seared ahi tuna over veggies/salad was refreshing and light. The view is grand and made the meal feel so worth it.

The food here is absolutely outstanding. it’s no wonder this place has thrived for nearly a decade and keeps people coming back. With excellent dishes, reasonable prices, and a perfectly cozy ambiance, it delivers a true dining experience. This is hands down my new favorite spot for a warm, intimate dinner with my husband. Last night, we tried just about everything and couldn’t find a single thing to complain about. If you’re looking for exceptional Italian cuisine with a modern twist, this is the place to be.

Blue chip restaurant that others should aspire to be. Same classic level as Zuni SF, Balthazar or Gramercy Tavern NYC

The staff was amazing and took great care of us. The setting in and the view was spectacular The drinks were delicious. The different dishes were magical. My favorite was the tuna and tots. I did not care for the sweet corn because it was a mixture of corn and hominy.
