Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Monterey Park

Unforgettable Experience! This was, hands down, the best Italian meal of my life! The pasta was absolutely divine—every bite a perfect symphony of flavors that transported me straight to Italy. The freshness of the ingredients, the richness of the sauces, and the sheer perfection of the textures were unmatched. The service was equally impressive. Prince, our server, was a true gem—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. He made us feel so welcomed and took care of every detail with such finesse. His recommendations were spot-on and added so much to our overall experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. If you’re looking for outstanding Italian cuisine paired with world-class service, this is the place. We’ll definitely be back!

Came here to celebrate my own Thanksgiving Day and was super impressed by this place and the experience! The views were spectacular and the food was top notch! My favorites were the grilled octopus, the turkey, as well as the mashed potatoes! The desserts were super good too! Service is nice, friendly, and helpful. Very professional! The only downside is that the restroom is a little filthy and no guarantee for window seating. Great for all formal and special occasions! Highly recommended!

We got there before our reservation & was seated after everyone in our party of 6 arrived. Everything from appetizers to main courses & desserts were super delicious. Our guests from out of town were not disappointed. They were glad to experience Bestia. It lived out to the great reviews.

Fantastic food, flavorful with just the right amount of food on the plate. Great service and a wonderful somalier.

The experience we had at Mazal was exceptional. The service was warm and welcoming, and the food was delicious and authentic—we felt like we were back in Israel. Standouts included the pita, mezze, beets, eggplant & Falafel main, and the homemade baklava and halva. We wish we lived in LA and could make this our new neighborhood haunt.
