Best Tapas Restaurants in Temple City

Probably my favorite restaurant when I come to LA. The staff are as great as the food. The room is beautiful and I've never had a bad meal there.

An exceptional restaurant with outstanding flavors, a warm and inviting atmosphere, and incredibly friendly staff. The space was impeccably clean, and their unique and creative drinks were a highlight.♥️ One of the staff, Katherine, was particularly kind and professional.✨ They also offer a VIP room for more private celebrations, making the experience even more special. Perfect for any occasion highly recommended!😍

Once we found it...paradise! The staff were AMAZING and super attentive. The ambiance was spectacular ....a LA must!

Shinsen Gumi is one of the best Japanese dining experiences in Los Angeles, if not California. They started in a little shop in Gardena and have grown a lot over the years. They have excellent food and I always walk away happy. Great for casual dining with friends. Some shops are louder than others. But this is by design. Japanese restaurants like this in Japan are loud, friendly places. You don't go there to quietly chat. Keep up the good work and the great food!

Our party of 4 had afternoon tea on 9/1/24 and it was our first time at Madeline. Everything was wonderful! The main dining room was elegant. The harpist was very talented and played beautifully. All of us really enjoyed our teas (lavender black & lychee oolong). We ordered the European and Madeline high tea. There was plenty of food and we all left very full. The French onion soup and salad were really good. And the scones - omg! The scones were so delicious and some of the best that we’ve ever had. Service was great and attentive. 10/10 experience! We will be coming back.
