- BBrendaVIPLos Angeles •36 reviews4.0Dined 4 days agoFood is fabulous - best eggplant parmigiana I've had in ages - no breading that I can tell and totally cheesy with a wonderful marinara sauce. Capraccio di mango was very good and I appreciated the addition of shaved artichokes and generous shavings of parmesano reggiano. Service was weird - very quiet at the time, but kept having to flag the waiter down for items or refills. Our first trip there, service by a young lady was excellent, so wont let this stop me from coming back, but it was definitely less than warm, friendly or welcoming. I like the patio seating best!More infoOliver’s TrattoriaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Irvine•4.8
- AAmyVIPLos Angeles •419 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoMy husband and I love this restaurant. We shared the fresh shrimp and pork spring rolls. The shrimp were a nice size. We also ordered the crispy tofu with eggplant and black rice, the chicken and shiitake dumplings, and the salmon. We didn’t realize how large the portions were! Everything was so delicious and cooked perfectly! Service by Adam was excellent. He was very personable and professional.More infoLittle Sister - IrvinePrice: Moderate• Vietnamese• Irvine•4.6
