    Food was great as usual. Shared the pate, which was very good. Plenty of pate, grilled whole grain bread, variety of fruits, pickled red onion, pickled green onion slices(first time having this-it was slightly sweet & tasty), & jam. For my entree,I ordered my usual Gorgonzola & Granny Smith apple with grilled chicken. MUCH better than my last visit. My only complaint last visit was the lone thin slice of apple. That’s correct. ONE slice of apple. Perhaps the kitchen supervisor was new(?). Anyway, the salad was great. My friend had the rare grilled tuna sandwich. VERY good. My last visit, my MIL had the same & was also very pleased with her choice. We will continue to be regular patrons. The food & service are great. The brief tour of the garden/nursery is a nice distraction from LA traffic & the hustle of city life.

    Such a beautiful restaurant and service. Wonderful hostess staff too and we very much appreciate the hostesses rearranging our table arrangements after I inadvertently made a reservation at a high top for our party, which included my mother who uses a walker and would not be able to dine at a high top. Thank you Maestro’s for a lovely evening!

    Unfortunately heaters not working above our table on patio, but blankets were provided, so that helped. But not having outdoor heating on a cold, damp day made our experience uncomfortable. Service was exceptional. Really great team of servers.

    We always love coming here. The staff is always high end in their treatment of each guest. My husband and I weren’t sure what we wanted and decided on pizza - make it simple. The crust is incredible, sauce was perfect. Oh and we hit the jackpot cause Wednesday you buy a pizza and get one - we took the 2nd one home. Great deal!
