We had an awesome time and great service thank you!

There’s a reason why this place is always busy! The food is incredible, service was welcoming and fun, and the ambiance was impeccable. Great for a date night, for friends and family or a solo date at the bar top.

Food and ambiance at M&F outstanding as ever. (I do wish they'd heat the bread, tho.) But this trip they outdid themselves in service. My dear companion now uses a cane and walks quite slowly. The valet noticed and actually drove him around to the front door where I met them having come down the stairs and secured our reservation. On leaving a member of wait staff lead him out a side door to the curb while I brought the car around. They made the night of my dear's birthday even more wonderful than just the dinner. This is old style service, above and beyond. Three cheers for Musso & Franks.

We've dined at the original Civico in San Diego before, and were excited to try their new location in Los Angeles and bring along our close friends who are vegan to test their vegan menu as well. To no surprise, their food was absolutely perfect, and on a rainy day the ambiance, wine, and flavors were cozy, friendly, and we didn't feel rushed to scarf down our meal and move along. The textures of the vegan cheeses were all divine, and the tiramisu (which we put head-to-head) were both to die for.

Service was very quick and consistent both times we came here. The patio area is beautiful. Dirty chai was delicious. Eggs Benedict perfect.
