Andrea Pike Josiah was our waiter and was above & beyond outstanding. He made sure our orders were correct and that our meal was to satisfaction. He offered if it wasnt then hed make sure it was fixed. He was extremely friendly bc of him Id return if I was back in town. The menu is different than Im used to. Its basic one item, no sides. This makes it a Lil more pricey than normal but the food was really delicious. I had the sea bass and Brussel sprouts. I dont even like Brussel sprouts and they were really fantastic. Atmosphere outside had a ambiance was fantastic. Heaters available. All the staff that I interacted with were very pleasant. This was my first time here and I live in North Carolina. I would highly recommend for a friends night out, eating solo or looking for a date night spot.

TistaMinis Hobby Shop Visited from Toronto yesterday and came here for a meal. Growing up our family in LA used to take me here as a child, so it has a special nostalgic place in my heart. I had the privilege of bringing my wife here after 18 years of not being in LA and it did not disappoint. She said it was the best she’s ever had. The food was just as amazing as I had remembered it growing up. The best kabobs ever. The portions were huge, the taste was amazing, and the staff were great. Thank you for the great experience!

Choco Le Chien Enjoyed the lunch specials on a rainy January weekend. We had the Louisiana chicken pasta, Spicy Rigatoni vodka, and cheesecake for dessert. The hot chamomile tea, served with honey & lemon was soothing while the Tropical smoothie was refreshing. Since there was only 2 of us, there was no wait. Large groups might want to get a reservation as its always busy on weekends.

Nicole Rodriguez It was so busy but it only took 20 minutes to be seated. The food was amazing! I got the eggs Benedict and my sister got shrimp chilaquiles. It was unbelievable. Aside from the food the service was even better. Fabiola was so quick and kept checking on us constantly. Excellent server. Thank you so much for the great experience!!!

Aaliyah S ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) We came into Din Tai Fung around 12–12:30 PM and got lucky with perfect timing. Even though this location is huge with tons of indoor and outdoor seating, it wasn’t very busy when we arrived. No wait at all, and there were seats available at the bar, so we walked right in and sat down. This was our first time at this location (we’ve been to many others), and it did not disappoint. David was our server/bartender and he was super friendly and attentive the whole time. Food came out quickly and everything was amazing classic Din Tai Fung consistency. Every dish we ordered was great, and we even took some home. You can always count on the food being solid here, which is why I love this place. By the time we were leaving, a line had started to form and it was getting busy, so we definitely hit it at the right time. Overall, a great experience and always a go-to spot.

Hannah A. Ko The food and service here are awesome! Tatjana (TJ) was such a wonderful server and worked so hard. She has such a positive vibe and really loves her job. My husband and I have been here a bunch of times, and shes seriously the best server Ive ever met. She recommended good food for us and taking care of us very much.

Maria P WOW WOW WOW!!!! Delicious! Ask for Miguel Mendoza. What an incredible service! The food was amazing. We were in town for the Rose Bowl and decided to stop by! Absolutely worth it! I dont know how they are not 5 stars. Drinks were to die for. Food was fresh and delicious. I asked them to make me just steak and shrimp fajitas and they were mouth watering. What a way to celebrate my new years eve. If they were closer to home I would be a regular!

Gabe Link I really liked Damons! Good atmosphere and all the patrons seemed to be having a good time. There were also 3 birthday celebrations happening as I dined. Food was very good too!

Moe Aly Stepping into Carousel is like entering a vibrant corner of Lebanon, with stunning, authentic décor. The food is exceptional, from creamy hummus to perfectly grilled kebabs and decadent baklava. Each dish bursts with genuine Lebanese flavors. Service is warm and attentive, adding to the overall experience. However, the restaurants popularity contributes to a significant noise level, making conversation challenging at times. Despite this, the quality of the cuisine and the beautiful ambiance make it a worthwhile visit. If you prioritize a quiet meal, consider off-peak hours. Otherwise, prepare for a lively, delicious, and authentic Lebanese feast.

LOR D First time trying Dinahs. The restaurant has take out orders and indoor dining. Friendly service and really good chicken. Ordered 4 drumsticks to go and the chicken was fresh hot and delicious . The coating was light and crispy and the chicken pieces were large and very tasty. There is a wait for the chicken but every order it is made fresh and not sitting around like other fast food places. The chicken was hot juicy, super crispy and delicious but not heavily battered unlike other places. They also have shrimp platter , coleslaw, potato salad and even home made pies. Well worth a visit . Loved the chicken.

Sharn Kung Food is good and portions are huge. Quite popular so sometimes there’s a wait. When it’s busy the service can get a bit slower, especially if you’re in the back room. Good assortment of kid options. Margaritas are on the sweeter side. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Marcos Parada My mother and I went in on a whim a few weeks ago and were not disappointed. The empanadas are absolutely delicious! The pastry was soft and fluffy while the filling was delicious and well-served. We ordered the churrasco, asado de tira, and spinach lasagna. The sauce on the lasagna was creamy and tasty without being overpowering. As for the meats, all were cooked to perfection, well seasoned, and super juicy. One of the best cut of meats Ive had! The service can be a bit slow sometimes but considering this is a small-family run restaurant with only a handful of employees, its completely understandable. Our server, Rene, was friendly and attentive and checked in on us frequently. Overall, a great experience and delicious food! If you get the chance or are in the area make sure you check out this neat little restaurant and support a small, family-run business! My recommendations: beef empanadas, asado de tira with garlic potatoes, sangria
