Absolutely LOVE Tu Madre in Brentwood. If you're looking for the ultimate Cali-Mex spot, this is…read moreit. The menu has something for everyone--whether you're vegan, a meat lover, all about salads, or just here for tacos and burritos. We got to try the tacos, burrito, salad, rice bowl, and the ahi tuna tartare, which was unbelievably fresh. But the tamarind shrimp completely stole the show. It was sweet, tangy, perfectly cooked, and honestly one of my favorite bites of the entire meal. Fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and a menu you'll want to keep coming back to. Definitely adding this one to my LA favorites.

I honestly love this place and I say that as someone that was raised in San Diego so I feel I know…read moregood Mexican food better than the average American. I used to go to the Westwood location all the time near my prior office but now I live very close to this one so stop in often and every time it's consistently good. They have a great selection of options on the menu and one of my favorite parts is the crispy kale at the bottom which to me is a total new thing for Mexican food. The meat quality is always really high and service is usually friendly. Parking in this area can be a bit trickier than other locations, but I was able to find a free street spot a block away. Inside is not very large. All the seating is outdoor, but there is a small covered seating area toward the back that also has a fire heater for those cold days. For this visit, we started off with the Truffle Guacamole and thought it was great and a nice start to the meal. It was also very unique in that I am not sure if I've had truffle guacamole anywhere else. For my entrée, I chose the Carne Asada Bowl and absolutely loved it. It's what I usually order here and would suggest to anyone. For dessert, we tried their Red Velvet Churros and loved them. They are extremely sweet and would be a bit too much for one person so I would suggest this to share. Every part of this meal is consistently good and I use it often for lunch. I would suggest anyone.

When she came back and realized what I had done she stared at me and she had a look of disbelieve and disgust almost as if I had ruined a priceless work of art. I mean chill lady, it was just a cocktail and it was an accident. That was weird af and then the some dude stormed into the bar and I guess his wife was sitting next to another guy at the bar and he almost go into a physical confrontation with him and they had to kick him out.

Ospi never disappoints! I came here to celebrate my birthday, and it was the perfect choice. The…read morefood is always great! The spicy rigatoni is always a must, the Caesar salad was fresh and perfectly dressed, and the other pasta and dessert were incredible too. The restaurant isn't huge, which actually adds to the experience. It has a cozy feel with a relaxed vibe that's perfect for a date. If you're looking for great food and a nice atmosphere, Ospi is definitely worth a visit.

I will say that if you are craving a traditional style pizza, or even a NY style, this may not hit the spot (we picked up a pie for later). Their pizzas are a lavash style, with toppings that don't overpower. We also tried the copione pizza and Tonnarelli pasta. Spicy rigatoni was great! Caesar salad could use a hint of anchovies in their dressing to bring out more flavor Nutella cheesecake was highly recommended and (coming from a non chocolate lover) did not disappoint! Yum. Desserts differ across locations Overall the food was solid. They have a generous happy hour which lets you try several of their most popular dishes, without committing to an entrée size. I will say that despite a very positive dining experience overall, nothing really blew our minds. We've tried several authentic Italian places that are both worth the splurge and a visit back. I'd maybe return for the outstanding service and a quick bite for HH, if I'm in the area. Will possibly give the Venice location a try, otherwise this wasn't a place we'd collectively return to for the food alone.

A few Irish accents completed the mood. Our server (who was very busy) was another highlight of fun and great service. NOTE the service is crazy quick. So if you want to order drinks and appetizer as we did - don't order your mains at the same time!! Wait until you have enjoyed your appetizers and then order your mains!! The food (especially the fried chicken appetizers with whisky aioli) was good. The cod and chips was acceptable but (having just returned from the UK) we would pick something else next time. Also parking is tough to find - BUT allow me to suggest about 0.2 miles down the street there is a large multi level shopping complex with stores like Fat Burger and Total Wine and many more - LOTS of parking - and it is free!!!

I normally order several appetizers to share with friends, most recently the flatbreads, each one of which was very good, ample, and satisfying. My last visit we had the cannolis which were solid without being overly sweet. So, I recommend this place and prefer it to many others of similar ilk in the vicinity.

They asked for.my name and reference to me by name my entire time there. Will introduces the dine la menu and walked me through it. He mentioned that the crab croquettas (with tuna on top)was amazing. It was fantastic. I was tempted to order more, but I wanted to save room for the lobster paella. When that came to the table it looked and smelled amazing! The lobster was fresh, the shrimp cooked perfectly.it was sized for me so I didn't have a meal meant for multiple people. It was season just right. Each bite had the same flavor as the last. This a great place for solo meal or group get together.

Blown away. What an unexpectedly delicious dog…read more I've been to Thunderbird more than a handful of times, but never ventured beyond the bean and cheese tacos (delicious btw). But their frankfurter dog is possibly one of the best I've had all year. It's a simple dog: sauerkraut and mustard and green onions. The wiener to bun ratio is spot on and had the perfect snap. Delicious. Service was friendly and helpful. Some of our favorites: the vegetarian burger, tequila sodas, chickpeas, and tacos (of course). The one thing we would not recommend: the tenders. They were very dry, unfortunately.

The Capri Sun is a must and contains Pink Whitney lemonade vodka, High Noon pineapple seltzer, and will definitely remind you of back in the day since it all comes in a pouch, too! The Espresso Martini is also another delicious choice and this contains espresso vodka, Mr. Black coffee liqueur, and Bailey's! They play bangers frequently, put awesome games on, have a cool ping pong table, and the seats, especially those in the other rooms, are so comfortable. It is definitely a fun spot to go dancing with friends and enjoy cheaper drinks!
