when i want to treat myself to delicious greasy food, i go to henry's. perhaps some of it's charm comes from the fact that i've been going to henry's since i was a kid, but still - this stuff is good. don't go to henry's with some notion you're going to get gourmet mexican food in a hip atmosphere, you'll just let yourself down. go to henry's with a friend, order some tacos and some beans and rice, sit at the wooden table, carve your names into the table, and just hang out.
Pros: food, casual, price
Cons: standing in line

The braised short ribs is what I ordered the last time I was here and let me tell you it was superb. I came here for a second date and shared the dish. I asked the waitress if the dish would be fair enough for two. She said that the dish would be a good size unless one of us tends to eat an ample amount to ourselves. Before they served the ribs the waitress had given us some fresh flat bread served with seasoned butter. I asked the waitress to bring us some sangria as we waited for the main entree. We had a lovely night there and after dinner, we conversed over a few drinks. BTW, they also have a full bar. This place was recommended to me by a friend for having a nice romantic ambiance and that's why I chose this place. My date loved the choice too. D'Cache also had some cool gypsy style music playing while we were there. This is an amazing dinner spot, especially for a date, a couple, or even just for a couple of friends. I heard the lamb is really good, but if you want to try something different definitely go for the short ribs.
Pros: An amazing dinner spot good for two or more
Cons: Kinda hidden

This place had the all around package: from a beautiful chateau ambience to delicious food to nice service waiters. What more could you ask for. Yes, this place may be a bit pricey, but it's definitely a place for nice occasions and you're sure to enjoy yourself. The food is exquisite. I had the half duck and I couldn't decide whether to choose the cherry or orange glaze, so the waitress gave me a full dose of both. The sauces are so rich and tasty. My partner ordered a delicious filet minon wrapped in a pastry.....mmmhmmm...so rich. The best part for me were the complimentary liver pate on their lightly buttered and toasted french bread. Truly to die for.
Very happy with the service and I'd definitely go back.
Pros: Authentic French cuisine, ambience
Cons: a bit pricey

Eight-18 is by far my favorite place to be. It's a very sweet, sassy, sexy, intimate wine bar in Toluca Lake. The staff and patrons are very nice and extremely helpful (no snottiness what-so-ever!), and the food and wine are fantastic!! You can do a full dinner or just a cheese tasting with wine or appetizers-- either way you'll be glad that you went.
It's not huge and quite popular on Friday and Saturday nights so I recommend making reservations.
They have a nice website where they say it best, I am dangerous. I am sexy. I am exciting. I am confident. And they aren't lying.
They also have wine lockers to rent, and some wine on tap!! Music on Friday nights, I think.

Yamakawa restaurant has everything you want in a sushi bar: fresh sushi, coziness, friendly staff and consistent quality and low prices. The sushi chef, Eddie, surprises you with delicate and tasty side dishes and remembers how you like your sushi and sashimi served. There is a shabu shabu bar, full Japanese memu ( order the tempura) as well as a private tatami room for parties. Nice local crowd of regulars gives the place ambiance and honest cheer. Group arrangements easy to make. Highly recommended.
Pros: Inexpensive, Good parking, good atmosphere
Cons: none

I've eating at Salomi since 1979. I moved over the hill and had not eaten there for years. I moved back to the valley and expected it to be not as good, but oh how wrong I was. I love this place so much and the staff takes great care of us whether we take out or eat there. The sauces are traditional and the food is the best in LA. I even sent my Indian friends there and they told me it was outstanding. Im sorry, but these other reviews dont know traditional indian and bangaledesh cuisine. It is a bit spicier, but I like that!
Pros: Best indian food outside of London
Cons: none

Hellooooo... people who have responded on here don't get it. THIS IS A DIVE DINER. You know... like a dive bar? Except a diner. What on earth are you expecting?
Sittons is the most fantastic place to go & hang out, get sober, discuss a screenplay, get some grub & JUST BE. There's absolutely nothing pretentious about it. The waitresses don't give a rip and the people look like they've been sitting in their chairs for about 300 years.
I've been going there for over 7 years now and I've never once experienced bad food. If you're a regular & you tip well, they remember. This isn't for Beverly Hills types... it's for real people that just want to eat & be left alone. Working class people that get it. You treat them with respect, they treat you with respect. But you've got to earn it.
And for the dude that got sick 20 minutes in... you can't get any kind of food sickness after 20 minutes. Go call a doctor. He'll tell you the same thing.
Sittons is my home away from home. And if that makes me white trash, then AWESOME! More fries with ranch for me...
Pros: Good food, decent prices

If you don't like evil clowns and dead perserved things on display while you drink your rolling rock. This might not be the best place for you. But if you like the dark. This is the top choice. It's my favorite bar to go every weekend. They also have a projector outside. Where they play a lot of random movies or concerts. Perfect to take your drink and smoke outside and relax.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Serve only beer

whenever i go, i always get their studio plate, which is pretty cheap for how much food you get including tortillas and chips. they cook everything on the spot so its fresh. my only complaint would be that there are too many ppl! so get there early or avoid lunch/dinner hours.

I go to this place often and love it!!!!
A very hip place with good service, pleasant staff and GOOD FOOD!!
Some of the reviews above are OUTRIGHT LIES possibly from bitter or jilted individuals or people trying to destroy the business. Go judge for yourself. Mo and Michael are two very friendly top notch bartenders.
Richard took a struggling old looking restaurant and turned it into a classy looking popular restaurant and lounge. Before the economy went down hill and the writer's strike last year, this was one super hot and packed place. It has stayed busy now even in a down economy.
For guys and girls alike there are many good looking people who hang out here obviously more so on nights like friday night. No BS doorman stuff like in Hollywood. I give this place a big thumbs up and I have been to many restaurants and clubs in LA. Go check it out!
Pros: Pleasant staff, good food, fun place.
