Casa Vega was delicious as usual. Very festive ambience. They said they don’t have the holiday menu items until Christmas Eve so just a heads up!

This was our first time at Bacari Sherman Oaks, after going to locations in Silver Lake and Third Street in Los Angeles - and it was every bit as good, if not more impressive, than their other locations. Our server, Casey, was fantastic. The setting is exquisite, and the food is absolutely sensational. We have some favorites that we always (and will always) order: Carmelized Pork Belly, Caprese, Brussells Sprouts, Lamb Hummus. We brought friends who had never been to any of the Bacaris and they loved it as well. We'll be back VERY soon!

The staff there is the best! I asked if I could change my reservation to an hour earlier, on the same day, and they could oblige. Luckily, it was closer to their opening, so it was doable. The service staff were so friendly, quick, and professional. The buffet was the best food ever. It was Thanksgiving, and they had traditional foods and our El Torito favorites! Our family was thrilled with the entire experience! Great Thanksgiving, thanks to El Torito!!
