Best Casual Restaurants in Los Angeles / Orange County

It was our first time there, and it will not be our last. The food was phenomenal. The handmade pasta was superb. Excellent cocktails, too. Our server, Jonte, was gregarious and so engaging. Can't wait to go back, and also to take the pasta making class!

That was the best meal I’ve ever experienced. Every dish had layers of flavors that were so delightful. I don’t have a refined palate to know where all of the flavors were coming from, but each bite was savored and appreciated. We ordered the naan, green beans, beets, chick peas fritters, poke, bass, short ribs noodles, pork belly, sesame cookie ice cream and the sundae. For drinks we had the goat fashioned, espresso martini, spa day, bees knees, and some Cadillac’s. There were four of us and there wasn’t a morsel left on any plate. The service was very friendly, attentive, comfortable and informative. The ONLY thing I would do different is make sure to get the naan first to scrape up every last bit of every sauce. If I could’ve gotten away with it I would have licked each plate clean ;) I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a very long time and tonight did not disappoint. I loved watching Chef Stephanie on Top Chef but have never had the chance to taste her food. And until tonight I’d never realized how truly elevated and special her dishes are. Thank you so much for an absolutely beautiful meal 💛

Beautiful rooftop; Mexican riviera ambiance. Nice assortment of shareable food items and drink selections. Warm heat lamps, not noisy but with eclectic music playing. Great views and easy parking! Reservations recommended

I loved every bit of it from the moment I got out my car the customer service was top tier to coming in and getting seated and everything carefully explained. Although there want a bartender I still had a ball eating and sparking up a joint. The decorations in the bathroom is amazing I will definitely be back and bring some friends !!!!!!

Once we found it...paradise! The staff were AMAZING and super attentive. The ambiance was spectacular ....a LA must!
