Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Sherman Oaks

It was a really good experience because the food was excellent as well as the service. The staff is warm and welcoming and our meal was served promptly so it gave us time to relax and enjoy our meal before heading over to the theater with plenty of time. The prices are high and the menu isn’t as extensive as other Katsuya restaurants but it was fine for a special occasion.

We had a 5:45pm reservation and we were running so late! When my husband called, the gentleman on the phone was so kind and accommodating. When we finally arrived he gave us the option to wait for a table but knew we had to make the 8pm Wicked show at the Pantages. He had saved 3 seats at the bar for us and we were able to get seated right away. Food came out super fast, everything we ordered was delicious! They even made the Witches Brew cocktail for me and my niece non-alcoholic! We ordered the spicy vodka rigatoni, meatballs and pepperoni pizza. Overall. great experience!

We had a wonderful time at lemon Grove. The vegetarian options were great. The service was amazing. We will definitely come back.

Wonderful Wicked theme 3 course menu that my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed before watching Wicked across the street at the Pantages. From the moment you walk into the Living Room, the ambience and vibe were very “Emerald City”. We sat in the dining room which had a more intimate vibe. Presentation was perfection, dinner was delicious and service was superior. The attention to detail and white glove treatment was chef’s kiss. The staff and Joanna were awesome. 10/10 would recommend. Hubby and I truly enjoyed our Hollywood Holidate!

We told the waiter we needed to be out of there to make an 8pm theater time and some of the mains were brought at 7:40. Unfortunate that they cost &35 and we only got to eat 3 bites
