Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Downey / Norwalk / Santa Fe Springs

This restaurant never disappoints. For my birthday dinner it was beyond perfect! Rack of lamb was to die for, as were the prawns, njuda hummus (like wow) and the all time best mushrooms on a sword. For real.

Bestia is a sleek restaurant with an industrial chic vibe. The ambiance of this place is energetic with high end quality food. It is one of my favorite places to go have dinner and the drinks are on point! The food is Italian inspired with innovative flavors making your palate salivate for more! Some of my favorite dishes that I would recommend from the menu are the bone marrow, homemade ricotta, cavatelli, branzino, and the ribeye. Whatever you choose from the menu you won’t be disappointed! I would definitely recommend Bestia over and over again but make sure to get reservations in advance!

Always a wonderful experience here. LUIS our server was outstanding! Very professional and attentive. Food was amazing as always. Ordered the Ribeye with Parmasean Garlic Homemade Fries. Best steak in Whittier. Came exactly as we ordered it, medium rare. Focaccia bread is a must! Cesar Salad was delicious. Service was impeccable!

Love this place! Food , drinks and service is always on point! My tummy always leaves happy bc the food is 💯 fresh!

I dined here last night, and I appreciate the experience I gained with such an attentive and polite staff welcoming us into their cozy and warm ambience of the restaurant. The food was exceptional: all the flavors and quality really stood out to me. I hope to be coming back here soon, hopefully, multiple times.
