    Snapper Leche De Tigre
    Taylor T.

    the automatic 20% service charge really do be making all of us mad, huh? LOL. but seriously, i always leave with an icky feeling when said charge is not disclosed by the server from the very start. and that's exactly what happened to me. besides that, the ambiance is very cozy and warm. and i do love their branding! sat at the bar and the bartenders were all so very nice and accommodating. leche de tigre was fire. wings would be fire if it had more sauce. and make sure you get some sauce on each bite, or it's quite flavor-less. will i be back to eat? probably not. will i be back for a drink? maybe. the possibility would be stronger if they had a happy hour.

    There's something very special about Marvito, and somehow it's still one of the best-kept secrets. I honestly wish I could go higher than 5 stars on this one. The food is genuinely terrific, but what really makes the place hum is the people. Bar staff, servers, host--everyone on the team was rad. We rolled in to watch the conference NFL games and instead landed in what felt like a perfectly calibrated Sunday situation. Not a scene. Not sleepy. Just right. Every member of the Marvito crew was smiling, laughing, radiating good energy. Maybe it was the margs. Maybe the tequila shots. Whatever it was, it turned what could've been a family-heavy, kid-filled afternoon into something that still absolutely slapped. That's not easy to pull off. Also: an objectively impressive number of dimes in the room. Big shouts to y'all. Only real bummer: the two TVs aren't ideal for a full-blown watch-party setup. But honestly? Not the end of the world. The vibe carried it, and the day still hit. They bill themselves as an "elevated dive bar meets psychedelic honky-tonk," and for once, the branding isn't lying. It feels like the OG grit Fairfax used to have (not whatever the hell it is now), mashed up with a Venice-era looseness, somehow connected by the cinematic DNA of The Nice Guys. Slightly unhinged, deeply charming, and very intentional. Marvito isn't trying too hard--and that's exactly why it works. big love to you guys.

    Chicken Piccata and Linguini with Butter and Parmesan
    Evan W.

    Nestled within a revamped cottage on Harper just up from Santa Monica Blvd., Marvito has the look of a 1970's finished basement, with dark woods and warm lighting giving the room a relaxed vibe that immediately makes you feel welcome and comfortable. It's a small room with an adjacent patio, so be sure to make a reservation -- we did, but elected to sit at the bar because that was our mood. The staff was friendly, professional and accommodating, and our bartender, Ulysses, took very good care of us. Cocktails are creative and tasty without being too, too pricey, and they have a fairly extensive list of tequilas, mezcals and other spirits if you're craving a top shelf moment. The menu is making headlines for its unique blend of Mexican and Italian foods. It's not fusion, because the cuisines stay in their lanes; it's just unexpected (and more than a little delightful) to find tacos and quesadillas on the same menu as Chicken Piccata and Veal Parmigiana. But I'm here to tell you it works... really well. We started with grilled olives tossed in herbs and lemon, served alongside what they call "bar nuts." The olives were big and meaty, and very tasty. The nuts were a mix direct from the tin, without any touch of cheffing whatsoever, and a bit disappointing given the success of the olives. My wife ordered the Shrimp Crispy Tacos, which were packed with diced shrimp and a raft of Mexican spices, folded into fried shells and topped with a bonus, jumbo shrimp. Lots of flavor with a very satisfying crunch. I ordered the Chicken Piccata, because how could I not? 3 medallions of white meat chicken are pan sautéed with lemon, capers and a richer-than-usual lemon/butter sauce. On the side: linguini in butter and garlic, with a generous dusting of fresh Parmesan cheese. This was the best expression of Chicken Piccata we've had in a good, long time, and we highly recommend you give it a try. We also ordered a side of the fried potatoes: crispy on the outside with a soft, pillowy interior, all seasoned nicely and tasting top notch. They were even more perfect (is that possible?) when slid through the Piccata sauce. We were too full for dessert, but will come back to sample those ASAP!! A fun place with an eclectic menu of very tasty food and drink, and very much worth a pilgrimage

    Sashimi  Burger and fries Salsa and chips
    Nikki K.

    Food- good, I enjoyed the fresh chips and Salsa and the grilled zucchini very much! Service -good and friendly welcome Ambiance - my favorite part, very viby and cozy Cons- the 25% service fee attached to our bill for two people which tacked on an extra 25% on top of taxes and total . and This service charge does not go to them as a tip so then I had to tip. Would I ever return or recommend NO . What would they charge a table of four, 50-75% service fee?

    chili colorado (with rice, beans, tortillas), chicken tinga quesadilla, potatoes, shrimp enchiladas
    Samantha G.

    I love the vibe of this place! (RIP Gardens of Taxco). It has kind of a side of the road 80s bar feel to it. It is dark, plays great music (Paul Simon, the Eagles), and just overall feels 70s/80s retro. The food was good, some things were EXCELLENT (please order the potatoes and the chile colorado)! The shrimp enchiladas, guacamole with chips, and tortilla soup were good, the chicken tinga quesadilla is not a must, but still enjoyable. I will say, it was just a random Tuesday and the place was PACKED, like way too packed. The bathroom was a bit gross, I opted to wait until I got home to use the restroom. One thing to note, especially, is that they automatically include 20% gratuity. Our waiter did not mention this to us, luckily my husband saw on the bill, because I was not paying attention. There were only 3 of us, so I was a bit surprised at that. I always tip 20% but had my husband not noticed, I would have unknowingly tipped 40%. I did not see this on the menu either. So I thought that was a bit odd. Otherwise, our service was great, our waiter was super nice and provided recommendations and had a cute personality. As I said, it was suuuuper busy, so he was really hustling. But just know that 20% will automatically be added! You can also add additional if you want.

    Do not come here unless you want to be taken advantage of during happy hour prices…read more I came here before work with the intention of happy hour. It starts at 3PM M-F. I come in at 2:58PM I go to the bar where Mitchell takes my order. I ask for a HOUSE dirty Shirley (a house drink during happy hour cost $7). He goes and makes my order and comes back. At this point it's 3:01PM. He charges me at 3:01PM keep in mind. He puts out the little card reader machine and as he does that, I hand him a $5 bill for tip. I wanted to tip him $5 since I knew my happy hour drink was $7. I tap my card and move on. I sit and I'm drinking my drink and got a notification that I got charged $15.50. As I'm looking at this charge I'm trying to make sense as to how my $7 house drink turned into $15.50. I try to justify it by saying it was tax or maybe he forgot to insert happy hour price since it WAS only one minute after it started. Whatever I don't get upset. At least 3:45PM - I call Mitchell over again and I say "can I please get the happy hour fries (advertised as $9 during HH) as well as another round of my drink (advertised as $7 during HH) that counts as happy hour right?". Mitchell says "Yes". He charges me again - I tap and I tip $18% which said was about $3.50ish. I look at my charges. I was charged $27. At this point I call my partner and I'm asking him to please help me make sense of this. I send him pictures of the menu etc. He says to ask for a receipt. I ask for my receipt for my first and second transaction and Mitchell only hands me the second one. At this point I'm super upset. I look at my receipt. He has charged me full price for my drink but he did give me happy hour price for my fries. I finally work up the courage to call him over and confront him about this. He admits that he made me pay full price for BOTH transactions. He goes over to his coworker asking to help give me a refund and I can read his body language. You could tell that he was a bit embarrassed because he got caught. He hands me a receipt showing that I'm being refunded for the second transaction of $27 and something cents. He said he was going to go check on my first transaction of $15.50 (which should have been no more than $10 with tax since house drinks are $7 during happy hour). At this point I'm making conversation with the guy next to me. Mitchell comes back hands me another receipt (I'm thinking it's the refund for my first happy hour transaction) I thank him, he apologizes and says he forgot to ring me up for happy hour. I just shrug it off but in the back of my head I'm thinking. How can you give me happy hour priced food but ring me up a second time with regular priced drink? Whatever. I continue on with my conversation with the person next to me and leave. As I get to my car I look at both "refund" receipts and notice he gave me two of the same receipts. Acting as if the second one he gave me was for the first transaction I made. Maybe it's my fault for not double checking the second refund receipt. Regardless - these charges were most definitely done on purpose with the intent of overcharging me not once but both times. I will never come here again. Please if you choose to come be aware. This is why I was never asked if I wanted a copy of my receipt. I truly hate writing reviews like these because of an interaction with a staff member. I'm sure the owner wouldn't agree with what happened to me. Pictures is my original and refunded receipt for proof of the second transaction. Again - I never got refunded for the first transaction of $15.50 like I was told.
