Incredible service. We went to pick up food during the pandemic and we couldn't find the restaurant. We called and the owner came and found US and said some very kind words about how we're all in this together.
Love this place. Everything on the menu is delicious. 22 beers on tap :) and great service. My favorite is the short rib miso wrap.
We asked for the beer menu and the manager came over to our table and said “I see you asked for the beer menu” and gave us a couple of beer to try and told us all about the different types. I wish this amazing service was everywhere. I can’t wait to return.
Really great restaurant! Lots of local beers on tap. My wife got Guava Lava, which tastes like guava and lime. I got Pale Chocolate Heaven Golden Porter, which has a hint of chocolate, but I don’t think I would have noticed it if it wasn’t in the name. The curry roasted cauliflower with cilantro yogurt sauce was a fantastic appetizer. My wife really enjoyed her fish and chips. (I agree, they were very good). My spicy sword fish tacos were great too. There was some spice to them, but they were not overly spicy.
The atmosphere was perfect and the service was friendly and prompt!
Incredible food - we had the short ribs pasta ($22), spicy seafood curry pasta ($24), swordfish sandwich ($19) and mushroom ravioli ($20) and everything was amazing. Well season and multi layered flavors that just popped with every mouthful. I'll definitely be back again when I am in LA.
The place is a bit hidden, but that gives it the title of "hidden gem". All they have is amazing. Great quality, and pretty original recipes. The staff is great too. We have a toddler and they did all that was in their hands to make us feel welcome. We'll be back!
