Best Bistros in Universal City

Went for the first time on a Friday. Went back on Sunday! That tells you all you need to know. The empanadas were easily the best I've ever had. The wedge salad was delicious too! Had the Butcher's Benedict next time and I have two words: chef's kiss. Each time the people in my party enjoyed their food, too (one vegetarian friend had the French omelette and I'm quite sure it melted in his mouth). Great service in a lovely setting. Crowded both times but not in an obnoxious way. It's clear TBBCM is popular for all the right reasons--NOT just a place to be Seen on Sunset!

The Culver Hotel has changed and improved their afternoon tea menu. There were pleasant little surprises in the food that I wasn't expecting---a little herbal note here, a little floral accent there (don't want to spoil the surprises), and voila! the food was tasty with interesting little twists. The tea selection was decent (about half a dozen or so) and the quantity was definitely sufficient for a full meal. The ambience was relaxing, not too busy when we were there, so not too noisy. Service is definitely acceptable, not quite white glove, but perfectly passable. And, given its location on the Westside, the price point is reasonable. A nice little hideaway amidst the bustling downtown Culver city. I will be back.

Very pleasant location surrounded by flowers. Good choice of food.

Nice , peaceful spot. Great food and service. Would visit again.

This restaurant a fantastic spot! The food is delicious, especially the salads and branzino. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy. Highly recommend!
