Best Casual Restaurants in Hollywood

Amazing experience. Delicious food. Kind and attentive service. This place is a treasure.

First date night for us in some time. Best service we’ve had at a restaurant in some time. Everyone very kind, food delicious and coursed out perfectly. Highly recommend.

the dishes were quite inventive and not the sort of things we encounter in san diego restaurants. the squab pasta was amazingly tasty, the branzino perfectly prepared and delicious and the broccoli with olive oil, garlic and lemon couldn't have been better. the honeycomb ice cream and cannoli were just the right ending to our wonderful meal. the wine list was also inventive and the bottle of sicilian grillo blend paired perfectly with our dishes.

Great always. Perfect pizza. Excellent Italian wines. It does always feel a bit overpriced for pizza, perfect as it may be. Tremendous desserts, though for me, this visit's gelati weren't up the usual amazing level. Though the gelato pie dessert was great.

We were the 1st to arrive at 5pm when they open and it was great, because our original seating was by the door and we were able to scoot over to the window view, which was better for our comfort. So glad we were accommodated. It was my dad's 84th birthday celebration and he wanted to have an unforgettable Veal Parmigiana. Every review had pointed to Rao's and I know my dad loves huge portions. So when the meal came, I could just see my dad's eyes light up! We ordered the stuffed mushroom and Vegetables for the Day and chose Broccolini. All was prepared spectacularly. Tasty, hot and just the right portion to split with my family of 4 all together. Our server was the best, so gracious and when I asked if we could put his birthday cake in the fridge, they later brought it out with candles lit and dishes to serve the cake and sang my dad his birthday song. We got coffees that were out of this world delicious. Went perfect with our cake. I highly recommend Rao's for any lifetime celebration, but even for a lovely dinner, we will be back. My niece ordered the Carbonara and said it was the best she has ever had.
