    First time for us at Proper, the photos and previous reviews had won us over. Highlights; service was very solid and atmosphere was as the photos led on, very nice. The food; caesar salad, deviled eggs to start - both okay, but lacking any "oh these are good" moments. Entrees - chicken paccata and salmon - too much butter and again, okay, but no, "oh my this is good" bites. The misc; music was in/out and not really heard from our seat making it eerily quiet at times when the music wasn't on. Overall a 3.5 experience.

    Our entrees were delicious, as was the pear/ burrata salad. Service was great and so were the cocktails! We will definitely be back!

    Very loud! Not a place to go to chill and enjoy a cocktail and meal. A party or two were so loud with laughter and talk deprived everyone else of enjoyment.

    We were greeted by a friendly host and were seated immediately. The decor of the restaurant was very chic and I loved the dim lighting. All of the appetizers and mains were delicious. We got the southwest chicken spring rolls and the avocado spring rolls. The burrata salad and chicken picatta were terrific. My husband loved the beef sandwich and my friends loved their burgers. The cocktails were just ok. They need more cocktails with reposado tequila that don’t involve mezcal. Margarita was way too sweet and had too much lime. The waitress was nice but service was a little slow. We would go back the next time we have an event at Descanso Gardens.

    Raphael, our server was great. And the food was amazing.My issue with the service is that the food delivery was too rushed. We were still enjoying our appetizer and then the salad came. Before I was half way finished with my salad, the entrees came. I sent them back. I was not ready to eat it. But the staff was all wonderful. It was extremely loud in the restaurant, hard to hear my husband and felt like we had to shout at each other. But, it was night one of the World Series, so people were excited!
