Restaurants near Selby Ave Guest House

Came here for THANKSGIVING which was the first time EATALY did this and the portions were large and it was really terrific.

This place is incredible! The food is delicious and high quality from the plating presentation and the attention to detail! The BEST customer service I’ve had! When I first arrived, my reservation was ready, but my friend was still parking so I decided to get a drink from the bar as I waited for her to arrive. My bartender Freddy made a specific, special requested creamy espresso martini. The BEST espresso martini I’ve ever had!! Then, when we sat at our table and ordered our food, I wanted another creamy espresso martini. My server, Louis (or Luiz?) went out of his way to track down my special requested cocktail by referring to Freddy so that my cocktail was made exactly how I wanted. What a thoughtful & considerate gesture! In addition, the food was incredible! We enjoyed dining in the most beautiful ambience. And even though business was busy on a Friday night, we enjoyed being able to hear one another with no problem and enjoyed a peaceful evening of conversation. What an exceptional dining experience! The pricing is on the expensive side, but you’re paying for high quality on every level! It’s WORTH it.

This was founded by the original owners of Mastro’s and, before tonight, most of my wine buddies had been here and told me how much they loved it. “Best Steakhouse in LA” they told me! I was somewhat skeptical. Tonight, I experienced it for myself and it was truly wonderful! We had a very attentive and thoughtful server, Jess, whom I will absolutely request on my next visit there. She knows the menu inside and out, is not timid about making suggestions, and was not at all flustered by our “Sally-like” requests (from the movie with “everything on the side”!). We had one minor issue (the kitchen’s not Jess’) and after Jess fixed it for us to our complete satisfaction, the Manager came over to make sure. He was incredibly friendly; took ownership; comped dessert; and, frankly, reinforced the incredibly positive vibes I had gotten interacting with our servers and the hostesses on our arrival. All-in-all this is a fantastic restaurant with top-quality food, presented beautifully, and served lovingly. 5-Stars all the way!

We just arrived in town and craved Italian food. Close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Casey, our server was warm and welcoming. This place is definitely a hidden gem! We craved a pesto dish and was having difficulty finding a place that served it , so we were thrilled they did! Definitely give it a try!

Our friends came into LAX for an overnight stay. We chose Vicini as our restaurant to have dinner with them. It was incredible! Everything from the food we had to our wines and the Ability to have a nice conversation in the somewhat quiet restaurant was superb. The steak that I had was incredible and perfectly done. The others’ pasta dishes were delicious! It is certainly worth a visit if you are in the area and would like authentic Italian food. The ambience was perfect as well. The only drawback is there is limited parking only on the side streets with a meter or after seven in front of the restaurant on the street.
