    So much space indoors - and patio seating too!
    Brian G.

    Even though I am NOT a delicatessen person - I make an absolute exception for Lovi's - any time of day they are the BEST. Love, love, Love Lovi's. Today I had one of my favorites - Chicken Pot Pie. Our server today was Jessica T who was stellar! Yes we will be back VERY soon :)

    Came here with a big group and had a wonderful time sitting in Lovi's outdoor patio. The servers were friendly and attentive, checked up on us very often. Our table shared the hot wings and humus platter, both were very delicious and perfect for sharing. I ordered the Zoltan and it was LOADED with pastrami and sauerkraut. The taste was decent! Also got a chance to try their desserts. The napoleon was flaky and tasty. The chocolate cake was rich and decadent. But my favorite was the eclair! Huge parking lot and lots of seating inside. Be sure to make a reservation if you're coming with a large group.

    Lovi's is an interesting place. Situated in the upper scale area of Los Angeles just past the posh towns focal point the commons it is an excellent Jewish Deli with the vast menu that serves its patrons well. From typical Jewish fare such as pastrami sky high sandwiched on rye and matzo ball soup dr brown cream soda there is also breakfast served all day and happy hour from 3:00 pm to close, and if you hanker for anything they will have it including craft drinks served in the sports room that handles the over flow of customers from The main dinning room which has booths rimming the walls of the main dinning room there is also a dinning room straight in the back for private parties. In middle of the room are ample tables to handle all their customers. If back in time you could remember how this space looked as the Red Robbin restaurant it is quite the comparison . Besides the varied food and posh surroundings the best thing going for them is the chefs and serving staff. The chefs prepare a variety of food in a forever panorama of consistency. It is the customer service of the servers that are the secret sauce of this establishment. They start off with a gentleman by the name of Umberto who never fails to accomplish total service in his stellar way. Always at your beck and call leaving no stone unturned with a perpetual smile on his face, with a delightful freindly nature . Last time we visited he wasn't there but he was covered by his friend Habib who echoed all the excellent attributes of Umberto. He was mentored by the best and handled himself with expertise and the saving grace of serving the public's a sense of humour.Serving isn't brain surgery but treating all patrons with respect and friendly persuasion is the impetus to bringing them back and back and back again . If Umberto and Habib aren't there we'll tough luck, no just kidding I think they are all trained to make the customer have a friendly warm experience that will bring them back again. That's all you can ask for except good food beautiful environments and ample parking front and back of the restaurant

    Lovi's is a longstanding Jewish style deli that can seat a ton of people in its dining room, bar and patio areas, and still has a line on most weekends. People love it here, and why not? It's sleek and modern, sparklingly clean and very well maintained. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and regularly checks on your needs even when at its busiest. It's a very well-run restaurant. On this occasion I arrived around 11:20am for an early lunch. I was flying solo, so I offered to sit at the bar rather than take up a table. I had forgotten just how well-stocked of a bar this is, and though I wasn't drinking at this time of day I was impressed by the selection: over 100 bottles of whiskey, bourbon and Scotch, and around 50 bottles of tequila plus all the other usual things. This would be a great place to watch a game on one of their many TV's and enjoy a few tipples. By the way, they even have a TV in the men's room over the urinal, so you won't miss any action if nature calls before the commercial break! Bartender/server, Naomi, was friendly as can be and took very good care of me, grabbing my order immediately and bringing me everything I requested very quickly. Total pro, and very pleasant. Alas, the food was a tad disappointing. On most occasions I order breakfast items, but this time I opted for a Pastrami on rye with a side of Macaroni Salad. The Pastrami was dry, and not particularly flavorful. I get the sense it may have been the last of yesterday's batch, and if I ordered the same sandwich 90 minutes later it may have been juicier -- but that's just my guess. The macaroni salad had the flavor of a mass-produced, commercial side that salt and pepper didn't even really help very much. In the end, there are places with better pastrami in the vicinity, so I'll likely stick to breakfast fare in the future. However, their enormous chicken pot pie is legendary, so I may stop in soon to give that a try with a nip of whiskey for good measure.

    Chicken Pot Pie
    Noesh H.

    Amazing restaurant located in the heart of Calabasas. The food was amazing. We had gotten the tuna melt along with the chicken pot pie. Both were great options, but the pot pie definitely took 1st place and can be shared by two. The service was fantastic and the ambiance reminds you of a high end diner. I definitely will be back to try out other entree items. They have a really large selection to choose from!

    The Zoltan Sandwich
    Nicole W.

    We tried the Zoltan sandwich to-go for lunch driving back from Santa Barbara. It was just okay. The bread is dry and over baked. Twice baked is too baked in my opinion. Rough on the roof of your mouth dry. It was very salty, decent portion of meat. It could have been refined more. Fries were fresh and hot. Coleslaw was the standard creamy and sweet. A little plain. The restaurant is very nice and clean, they have a photo-op wall of flowers out front. I like the decor, but wished the sandwich matched it.

    Lovi's is great! Spacious, modern, clean, as if it just opened. The staff is super friendly, helpful, and attentive. The food is delicious, we went for breakfast this time: chicken noodle soup, enchilada breakfast plate, chicken pot pie, crepes, latte, and coffee. The dining area is so nice and spaced out. There is beautiful patio overlooking Calabasas, there is a lounge for adults only, a bar counter, and private area for parties.

    I love this place! When you walk in everyone makes you feel at home, from the staff to the managers. They all make sure you are taken care of. We have been coming here for years and appreciate having a local restaurant that is our go to for a quick bite or a big family gathering, I can't recommend Lovi's enough!

    Matzo Ball Soup
    Karen R.

    Fabulous Deli..... matzo ball soup is wonderful! They have everything you'd expect from a high quality ethnic delicatessen. Can't wait to go back!

    Potatoes skins
    Arev L.

    It's a cozy place. Love the relax vibes here. Everyone is very friendly. We were seated immediately and served with ice cold drinks. I ordered chicken pot pie, potato skins and chicken with waffles. Everything is delicious, the chicken is a bit on a dryer side, love the potatoes skins. And that huge chicken pot pie. If you are coming in for the pot pie, ordered it immediately, it took 25 minutes. Next time, I'm definitely gonna get a dessert.

    Protein Wrap

    Always nice to have a busy deli in the neighborhood. The whole family enjoys eating here. I am a fan of the breakfast Protein Wrap.

Erewhon's advantage here is that they can get produce from small, local farms. Read the label, but outside of that, avoid the produce. Their tonic bar is ahead of the game.
