Best Family Style Restaurants in Studio City

I came to celebrate my birthday with my Mom and Sister and I loved everything about the restaurant, from the decor or flowers to the eatting areas. The servers and waitresses were so nice and helpful. We will definitely be coming back. The food was delicous as well.

Nice art deco resto with fabulous food. The ribeye is juicy and yes lots of marbling but that’s what this cut is for those who say too much fat!! Love it and the chartucherie is yum with that bread!!

Wonderful experience at MXO! The food was delicious from appetizers to mains and deserts! We even had a moment when you realize “OMG we’re at a steakhouse and one of our guests is vegetarian!” And it was no problem because the fish and veg options were fantastic. The cocktails were also inventive, delicious and well presented and the wine list great. Staff was attentive and very helpful. The restaurant has a great vibe and visually is sleek, sexy and elegant

First thing we noticed was how the music set the tone (literally) for the night. We were greeted by the awesome sounds of a great playlist that seemed to fit the theme of a classic throwback restaurant (I’m not sure if I can explain what I mean, something about the ambiance took me back to when my family and I would make a big event about eating a fancy dinner). Anyways, my husband and I decided to look at the menu days in advance, but we couldn’t help but want everything. What we ended up choosing was: Calamari Frites, Kale Caesar Salad, Mushroom Scallops, Grilled Lion’s Mane Steak, and Eggplant Shortrib. And yes, the calamari was AMAZING. We couldn’t believe that it wasn’t real calamari. We just had to ask our server and she revealed to us that it was oyster mushrooms (yeah that makes sense, it has a great texture). The Caesar salad is sort of misleading because it doesn’t look like a big serving, but it’s very filling. The eggplant shortrib and the grilled lion’s mane steak came out, and my husband looked delighted and confused. “Wait this can’t be plant-based, can it?” The steak was delicious. The shortrib was good, but we preferred the steak for sure. We’ll be definitely be coming back to try more of the menu. Our next treat: the pizzas hopefully.

The staff was absolutely amazing when we came on Christmas Day. Our party was running past 15 minutes and after arriving they were able to accommodate us after waiting patiently to be squeezed in. I can’t thank the manager and his staff enough for how amazing and their graciousness for allowing us to be able to experience their Christmas menu! Thank you again and happy holidays!
