    Amazing experience! Me and my wife were there last night, had a great time. The dips were awesome , the fish was out of this world, portions were great. SERVICE was kind, friendly and informative , the manager even came out to see that everything is good, we actually had a nice conversation with him as well. On top of that, the alcoholic beverages were out of this world . Definitely coming back to try other things on the menu.

    Fabulous!! Big undulating bar that is able to accommodate a lot of people, enjoyed the energy in this section of the restaurant while waiting for our table. Upbeat music. A nice surprise to see the depth of the restaurant walking past the bar. There is a middle section with a great fireplace and a few tables with a warm ambience. Past the fireplace area are more tables and the sushi bar at the back. Food and drinks were amazing. We loved the spicy tuna crispy rice… A must try! Overall, a fantastic spot in the heart of Abbott Kinney🤩

    favorite restaurant in the whole of Los Angeles my only Comment is the music techno music in the middle of the day was drowning , yes, but he heard it too loud say him … I did hear a Tony Bennett song in the middle of that so I’m not sure maybe a afternoon crowd at 2 o’clock older. Otherwise, as always food with exceptional service, exceptional tablecloth crisp white , clean . delicious bread great service. And not gouging of prices since the beginning of the year, I appreciate that.

    Very quiet, welcoming italian restaurant. Went for dinner and the best ragu ever, which pairs well with their greppicante red wine! Would come back again during lunch and try their samdwiches because their pizza dough and bread on salad were really good.
