Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Lakewood / Bellflower

The food quality is consistent and outstanding. We have been to bestia multiple times and I am impressed at how they maintain the same standard and consistency. We had the Caesar salad, mussels and spinach tagliatelle. All three dishes were made to perfection. Would highly recommend their fuyu permisson ricotta tart dessert- not too sweet and to me the perfect end to an outstanding meal. My only quibble is that their prices have gone up substantially which makes this a place for only very special occasions.

Food was even better than ever. Server was wonderful, too.

Very friendly service, interesting and very good designed inventory, terrific view!

Our family is highly health-conscious, so we love Black Angus for its low-calorie, low-carb options with calories on the menu. We can have a celebratory dinner with steak, veggies, soup, and appetizers and stay within our restrictions. At the same time, if someone is taking the day off, there are so many options to go hog-wild crazy! The best part of our visit was the service. They are kind to our family's many requests, including our toddler. Never flinching, our waitress said, "Sure!" with a sweet smile to every request. Thank you for making our New Year's Day a warm, friendly place to gather!

I had a fantastic dining experience at Benihana, thanks to our chef, Precious. She was incredibly personable and made the evening even more enjoyable with her engaging personality. The food she prepared was absolutely delicious, showcasing her culinary skills beautifully. I would love to have Precious as our chef again on our next visit!
