Best Cocktail Bars in West Los Angeles

Excellent food. Presentation was very appealing. One of our favorite restaurants in Santa Monica/LA.

The Culver Hotel has changed and improved their afternoon tea menu. There were pleasant little surprises in the food that I wasn't expecting---a little herbal note here, a little floral accent there (don't want to spoil the surprises), and voila! the food was tasty with interesting little twists. The tea selection was decent (about half a dozen or so) and the quantity was definitely sufficient for a full meal. The ambience was relaxing, not too busy when we were there, so not too noisy. Service is definitely acceptable, not quite white glove, but perfectly passable. And, given its location on the Westside, the price point is reasonable. A nice little hideaway amidst the bustling downtown Culver city. I will be back.

Another great meal at Nobu. Cooked food was awesome. Nigiri was great too. Sushi rolls are just ok and basic. They could use a little upgrade.

We have been to three different Bacari locations throughout the years and have really enjoyed them. This one was equally as good, if not better. My husband and I had a late lunch there and it did not disappoint. We had the gem salad, lentil stew, braised beef cheeks, and the pear & brie pizza. All were delicious! We look forward to going back soon as there were so many other items on the menu that we want to have. The wine was good and so was the service. The only note I would have is - I did not enjoy the background music. Like at all. I don’t think it went with the Bacari vibe, nor this particular location. But that’s just my personal opinion. Other than that, great experience!

We received excellent service as we arrived and ordered our food and drinks. CJ was wonderful and patient as he explained the variety of menu and drink options. The food was delicious and the drinks were tasty. The sticky ribs had an amazing flavor and were not too spicy for us. The guacamole was delicious and had a beautiful presentation. We are so glad we chose Hermanitos for lunch!
