Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Whittier

Let me just say that everything we ordered was chef’s kiss 🤌🏻 the ambience and attentiveness of the staff is also top tier. Definitely coming back soon.

Fair price for good food. The only issue was they switched my well-done stake for my wife's medium well. She did not want to just trade because I had broccoli on my plate & she did not want to risk cross contamination. It was yummy.

We enjoyed all the food we ordered. The focaccia garlic bread, meatballs and burrata, tomahawk and Penne a la vodka were all exceptionally good! The lemon butter dessert was so good. Highly recommend this charming restaurant in Uptown.

The food was really good, but I would prefer if they included coffee and tea with the brunch price. I was told there was a dress code but when we got there, everybody was very casual so I was confused. The staff was not very friendly, but the service was good and our food was good.

This place is absolutely my favorite restaurant in LA! Every dish on the menu is delicious. You just can’t go wrong with anything!! My favorites are hummus with pita, king oyster mushroom kebab, grilled prawns, and whole lamb rack. The pita bread is freshly baked and it’s so soft that I want to scream when I dip it in the hummus! The mushroom kebab has a good balance between the smoky flavor and fresh lemon zest on top. The avocado sauce on the bottom also has a refreshing touch to it. And the whole lamb rack - you need to order this. Period. Unfortunately, they don’t have the braised beef cheek with coconut rice anymore… But they now have pomegranate sauced ox tail, which I need to try next time I go. Service is good. My server always checks to make sure everything is good. Every dish is introduced and explained when they are presented to the table. The atmosphere is great as well. The patio seating has heaters on so you don’t get cold at night. I absolutely enjoy every single bit of my dinner at this place every time! Not to mention I really like their hand soap… I need to get those for my own place.
