Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Toluca Lake

Our service person was acceptional . Myhfriend who is a gourmet cook asked many questions about the ingredients of each entree. She knew it all.we had butternut squash with figs was delicious. my friend had Bece with pepper and cheese. He agreed it was far better than his. We shared the Caesar salad which was very different than any other Caesar salad I’ve ever had. Amazing! For desert we ordered pastry stuffed with apples and a side of ice cream and a chocolate dessert I don’t remember the name. I give Osteria mozza five stars in every area .

Best Mediterranean style kabobs and rice in all of LA. The Megruli Khachapuri is to die for!!! Trust us…must order hot appetizer!!!

I came to celebrate my birthday with my Mom and Sister and I loved everything about the restaurant, from the decor or flowers to the eatting areas. The servers and waitresses were so nice and helpful. We will definitely be coming back. The food was delicous as well.

First thing we noticed was how the music set the tone (literally) for the night. We were greeted by the awesome sounds of a great playlist that seemed to fit the theme of a classic throwback restaurant (I’m not sure if I can explain what I mean, something about the ambiance took me back to when my family and I would make a big event about eating a fancy dinner). Anyways, my husband and I decided to look at the menu days in advance, but we couldn’t help but want everything. What we ended up choosing was: Calamari Frites, Kale Caesar Salad, Mushroom Scallops, Grilled Lion’s Mane Steak, and Eggplant Shortrib. And yes, the calamari was AMAZING. We couldn’t believe that it wasn’t real calamari. We just had to ask our server and she revealed to us that it was oyster mushrooms (yeah that makes sense, it has a great texture). The Caesar salad is sort of misleading because it doesn’t look like a big serving, but it’s very filling. The eggplant shortrib and the grilled lion’s mane steak came out, and my husband looked delighted and confused. “Wait this can’t be plant-based, can it?” The steak was delicious. The shortrib was good, but we preferred the steak for sure. We’ll be definitely be coming back to try more of the menu. Our next treat: the pizzas hopefully.

Food was outstanding and service was great also. We had Lamb Kabob and Shish Kabob, a bunch of appetizers like Hummus, Mutabal, and Tzatziki, as well as Quail. I wish the portions had been a little bigger and that there would be a couple more pieces of Kabob per plate. The quality was phenomenal, and I will definitely eat there again.
