    The Bacari restaurants are my LA go to.  Tonight I brought family who had been to other locations but never to Silverlake. What a magical place it is, especially during the holidays. It was festive, the food was great, the server was fun and patient. Those folks work so hard in a location like this that is busy and multi leveled, serving a lot of different plates and knowing a large and varied menu. We were impressed with all of them. Loved our meal and our dining experience.

    My daughter and I dined at Bestia as first-timers before heading to the Disney Concert Hall to listen to the amazing Jennifer Hudson. Several parties around us were doing the same thing-great minds think alike. After receiving lots of helpful suggestions from Franklin, our server, we opted for a glass of Riesling and a Cruise Control as our beverages and shared a Margherita pizza, Cavatelli alla Norcina, and the Grilled Pork Collar. All were delicious options. The pizza was so flavorful with just the right amount of char on the crust. The pasta married the sauce, sausage and shaved truffles so well, and the pork collar was sublime; tender and flavorful. For dessert we shared the Holiday Cookie Frozen Torte which gave us a little of everything-cake, coconut, pecans and ice cream. Franklin and his team were friendly, attentive, and professional. We both agreed we would love to dine here again

    Really awesome experience. We did the bread and Caesar salad as apps which were amazing. Our server did a really nice job pairing wines for us. Brown butter ravioli was decadent and excellent. Loved the butternut squash tortellini, sweet winter pasta. Pro Tip: save some bread to dip in the pasta sauce. Did the Bunet for desert, I didn't love it but my partner did. It was a little too overwhelmingly almondy for me. I would try something different next time. But overall, one of the best meals I've ever had. Every bite was a delight and I will definitely be coming back. Service was excellent. Great choice for a date night.
