    Great experience for 17 year anniversary. Andreas was a great waiter and treated us well. Only minor issue was that we got a cocktail with lipstick on the glass. Other than that, the evening was excellent. Will definitely come back!!

    I celebrated my birthday at TAO Asian Bistro, and it was an incredible experience! The ambiance was stunning, with the beautiful decor and lively energy making the evening feel extra special. The food was absolutely delicious—everything we ordered was perfectly prepared and full of flavor. The lobster fried rice and spicy tuna crispy rice were standout dishes! The service was exceptional, with attentive staff who made sure our night was flawless. They even surprised me with a personalized birthday dessert, which added such a thoughtful touch to the celebration. TAO is definitely a bit on the pricier side, but the overall experience was worth every penny. It’s the perfect spot for a special occasion, and I can’t recommend it enough! I’ll definitely be back.

    I'd long wanted to dine at Musso & Frank Grill and finally had my chance tonight. It's an L.A. classic that's turned out elegant comfort food and delectable martinis for 105 years. My husband and I were not disappointed: the restaurant's storied history, ambience, food, and service all combined to make a memorable dining experience. We started with cocktails (a St. George Terroir martini for me, a Fern Dell for him), the baked escargot, and the wedge salad — all delicious (I especially enjoyed the house-made bleu cheese dressing that came with the salad). For our mains, my husband ordered the Saturday special: Braised Short Ribs of Beef with vegetables (diced carrots — too many, he thought — and peas) and mashed potatoes. The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender and so flavorful! I had the NY Strip, cooked medium rare, and it was perfectly prepared. We shared the baby broccolini, which was grilled and had a wonderful char. Our waiter Leonardo brought us a brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a candle, as we were celebrating my husband's birthday. Service was thoughtful, courteous, and efficient. We had a delightful experience and look forward to our next opportunity to dine at Musso & Frank!
