Best Cosy Restaurants in View Park

Came here at opening (5:30 PM) on President's Day for a date with my husband. Initially, we were amused by the location, which is in a small unassuming strip mall in the outskirks of Koreatown. When entering the restaurant, the ambiance felt cozy, tasteful, and unpretentious. My husband and I shared the following dishes in this order: foccacia with the whipped ricotta + pistachio pesto; plin dell' al langa, rosticciana (dry rub pork ribs) paired with the broccoli chicory caesar. The meal was finished with the pistachio crunch ice cream. I would recommend everything aside from the pork ribs. Not that the ribs were bad by any means; it was just a little underwhelming, especially for the price. But everything else we had was delicious - the foccacia is a must-have. The service was great - the staff were attentive, not pushy, and overall professional. Parking is valet for $10 or street parking. I'm planning on returning again to try the other pasta dishes.

The lawry cut was so good, like a thanksgiving dinner, had to take home the rest! Loved the shrimp/jalapeno/corn fritters! If you have a chance to go the their bar at the front, I enjoyed the mango rum drink (more on the fruity side and didn’t taste the rum) Went for galentine’s day and was a nice meal to splurge on! The waiters were so nice and accommodating!

Always a wonderful experience. Food and services are exceptional. I travel to LA on business frequently and they make me feel welcome as a solo diner. There is always a warm welcome by the entire team and my preferences are remembered.

We have been looking forward to dining at Daer John’s for a long time and we were not disappoonted! The food and service were outstanding and we definitely will return. The only negative for me was the pervasive odor of the fuel used for the table candles; it made my nose run during our meal!

Very nice romantic place and the food and drinks were 10 out of 10
