ROBERTO BURRIS: There French Dips Sandwiches alone is a meal and with the spicy garlic fries with some ranch dip! Delicious! If you got room left, the pecan pie ala mode! It's sheer delight!
Dan Gutierrez: French Dip was standard, very good. The Atomic Pickle Sphere was legit and the spicy garlic fires were awesome. Get the full size if your hungry because the small won't cut it.
Mario L.: Best fries ever....the spicy garlic fries. Went with 10 people and every drink was a hit. My favorite, the Tom Collins and cosmo. So, so, good. (Tip: don't leave the atomic pickle on your plate.)

Jeremy Hermanns: OMG - This place is amazing - they only accept cash so stop by the ATM. The Broiled giant scallops and prawns are amazing with Garlic butter. YUM!
Starry Kitchen: Charboiled Fish is done to perfection. Personally prefer these more than the fried fish. Always get the Sea Bass w/ Garlic Butter Sauce.. So EFFIN good!
Chris Abbott: Giant Shrimp & Scallop Combo with Garlic Butter. This is the best. Its charbroiled and comes with fries. I drench everything with the garlic butter and dig in.

plantbasedbabe: this place is the best vegan restaurant I’ve been too! it was so pretty and fancy. I got the garlic noodles with tofu instead of sausage 😻 I also got garlic fries(which were so addicting) must try!
Robert Sandoval: On my first visit, I had the curried rice. They hit it out of the park on this one. The dish was amazing! This is now on my top three Los Angeles vegan restaurants.
Lani Love: Salt & pepper tofu/shrimp app is a must! Pho is great for a quick lunch.

Burt Simpson: Mussels very good. Scampi very very good. Linguini clam, overcooked, washy but edible. Chef too generous with garlic. You don't need as much to cook italian :) generally speaking is worth the trip!
G .: Pleasantly surprised. Recommend Napoli pizza, Portobello fries w/ basic garlic sauce are fantastic. Chocolate souffle is divine, but please allow 20min for preparation. Don't forget the Macarons!
Kat Fukui: Short ribs are delicious. A cocktail or two is a must.
