    We love Rao’s. It’s like our security blanket of reliable cuisine in a cozy, if not romantic, atmosphere. We love the leather booths, twinkling lights, and festive energy amongst the patrons at the bar, and the entire staff throughout. The food is always good. The cocktails from the mixologist always superbly executed. It’s a mix of old school Hollywood history with a fresh current vibe. Don’t miss the cheesecake!

    Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! We started with the octopus and the caviar. While the octopus was decent, it was slightly overcooked and just okay. In our opinion, the Little Door Caviar was the standout starter—its flavor was far superior. For mains, the Branzino was perfection—crispy and flaky on the outside, tender and soft on the inside. The ribeye was equally fantastic, cooked beautifully and packed with flavor. We finished the meal with the crème brûlée, which was the perfect dessert—smooth, creamy, and with a perfectly caramelized top. The service was impeccable, making the evening truly special. We celebrated my friend’s birthday, and it was a memorable experience from start to finish. We’ll definitely be back!
