    Stop the presses!! Literally, some of the best Italian food I have had so far in the LA area. The restaurant is so unassuming that you think you’re going to get, like, I don’t know, like a 3 1/2-star meal. I was blown away. I can tell you this much: It is definitely better than all the Italian food I had in Dallas . This place is definitely going to be in the 2025 rotation. Not only is the food amazing, but the service is impeccable. This is what we want when we go out to eat: great food and really fantastic service. I always order a cappuccino. For some reason, it takes like 15 minutes. My cappuccino came out so quickly. It was there before my dessert hit the table. I don’t know what more I could ask for.

    Old school steakhouse vibes. Smart casual or dress up for a retro formal not fussy experience, done casually with family familiarity. Food was all excellent - again not fancy or fussy presentation, just good food on a plate. Owners Sophia & Boris set a “everyone is friends” neighborhood vibe, and deliver a lovely experience with warmth and a solid meal. Great for family dinners. Recommend!

    Magnificent service. Some of the best. The Yule log—sublime! The pigs in a blanket—imagine what that might be like with a master pastry chef! Shrimp cocktail—how often is it merely passable? Here it is of a uniformly exquisite tenderness. I want to say again, the SERVICE. This place is an industry standard but is generally underrated. Visit it again.
