    LKSD is the perfect place for a great vibe and relaxing ambience. Not to mention they had a great music playlist the evening I went. The food was great and service was even better, would definitely recommend.

    I hate this place I went there with a friend because we wanted to eat something before we went to the soccer game in carson. We get there place looks nice and all the waiter comes out gives water and we kind of had to eat quick cuz we didn’t wanna be late. The waiter never came out he gave us water and left. Terrible place to go to and I heard they have a letter C food grade. Would not recommend if your downey.

     if you are not given a booth and your dining for two, you will be crammed in these high top small tables with guests to your left and right with about 1 feet or 2 feet of space in between each other it felt uncomfortable so I decided to leave soon after being sat down and not order anything spread them out more in my opinion
