Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Whittier

We really like this place. Every Hazelwood we go to seems to be consistent as far as the food quality! Our server last night, in St Louis Park was very good! Personable and gave us space! The one thing that is a drag for us is using the online gift cards. It seems to make life miserable for the servers. I have since found out if you go to a physical store, and buy them, it will be a physical gift card not the online version with 16+ #'s to record. The charge for ordering an online physical card is 15.00 to mail it. Aside from that we enjoy this place a lot!

I thoroughly enjoy my experience every time I am at Cafe Lurcat. I appreciate the ambiance as much as the knowledge of the staff. The food is always amazing. I’m extremely grateful for gluten free accommodation and attention to ensure my selections are safe to eat. This is the only restaurant that truly makes me tear up by dessert from the pure joy of the flavor explosion in my mouth. Truly wonderful.

All the food was great, and our server (Troy) couldn’t have been better!

We were in the first (11:00] seating for the Thanksgiving dinner. That probably influenced the very prompt service and quiet surroundings. The turkey roulade was some of the best turkey I have ever eaten, the breast meat was moist and nicely flavored by the abundant dressing rolled into it. The beans were crisp and bright green; the sweet potatoes were flavorful, The pumpkin praline cheesecake was incredibly rich and nicely presented. We only wished we had split one piece and taken the other home for later.

The food was flavorful and delicious! What a nice change from other local restaurants that persist in over-salting their dishes. It was also nice that the background music was just that—background, not deafening, no thumping bass. We look forward to our next date night at Noa!
