Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in San Gabriel

Wow what a great dining experience ! Start with the ambience, while it's a large industrial space the dining room is very warm and inviting. The use of hanging plants and lighting gives the feel of a Mediterranean garden. Loved the music. The food is excellent, we had duck nudja hummus, oyster mushroom kabob, grilled prawns, malawach and spiced pear cake for dessert. All were delicious, the standouts had to be the oyster mushrooms which were smoked and had the texture of a meat protein. The duck nudja hummus will ruin any other's you eat because this dish will be the standard. Every dish we had was special and I can't wait to return

Tasty food, creatively presented in attractive surroundings. Excellent service. (They even box up leftovers and have them waiting in the front for pickup when you leave.) A bit pricey especially for the entrees and somewhat limited wines by-the-glass, also a bit expensive.

Staff were all incredibly friendly. We dined in on Thanksgiving as it was just one of few restaurants open. The pasta the bartender recommended was my favorite and the saltiness of it paired well with my martini. Also, not sure if it was just for the holidays but they had a live singer and that enhanced the experience. Would highly recommend and come back!

We had an absolutely wonderful dinner at Bestia. The service was warm & conscientious. The food was delicious, as always. The cocktails were fun & inventive. We truly had a fantastic night! My only complaint was that we were seated outside, & at one point for probably 5 minutes or so there was helicopter overhead that was so loud that it made it difficult to hold a conversation. I know that this was not the restaurant's fault, but I wish we had not been seated outside. The outside location of my table was not made clear to me when I made my reservation. Still, overall an absolutely wonderful experience!

I have to say, Ive been to Dunsmoor only a few times, but it feels like it just keeps getting better and better and the restaurant and food were already incredible the first time. The service is always top notch and the atmosphere is a really great vibe. I can't say enough great things about Dunsmoor.
