Spago is an upscale restaurant in Beverly Hills and I had not been there for quite some time . Certainly the menu selections change to keep up with the clientele's' changing palette. The menu was just a tad limited in my opinion. I'm Not quite a fan of the nouvelle palette that seems to be invading the Italian selections in several upscale restaurants . I am no fan of truffles and it seems like truffles this and truffle that . I don't see the big deal about truffles -- perhaps I am something ??? Anyway -- I really liked the pizza which was a pizza margarita . I didn't order the salmon on the pizza as this sounds a bit too fishy for me . The pizza was perfect . After this came the JIDORI chicken: I took only 2 bites and left the remainder .--I'm just not a fan of JIDORI chicken and the taste is always unfamiliar no matter where I had ordered it so perhaps I'll not ever order JIDORI chicken again anywhere . The potatoes were great. The prices are of course a bit overcooked too but it's the name that justifies the costs , it was packed and the waiters were very professional . It was noisy so if you are looking for quieter atmosphere forget it . This is just my opinion and apparently this restaurant has been around for decades so they are doing something right for many of its clientele - it's just me that needs a more old style menus without salmon on a pizza ! Try it you might like it.. read more

We had the best experience! The second we walked in the front desk was warm and welcoming! the waiter was fun and attentive and the food was perfection! I wish I could give 10 stars! Plus the flowers and decor were magical! This is the best place to go for a double birthday. read more

The impeccable details and flawless service alone make Spago Beverly Hills a precious treasure! As someone who is detail oriented, a foodie, and an event planner, it often bugs me when restaurants overlook details that make the dining experience go beyond a basic meal. The dining room here was absolutely packed, bustling and loud from other guests, and yet everything throughout our dinner was well organized, service was fast and always available, and the food arrived fresh and hot and gorgeously presented, with our large group receiving all their dishes at the same time. I didn't have to ask for a sharper knife for my duck breast because they already gave me the perfect steak knife, and I didn't have to set my knife down on a sticky table because they gave me a vertical blade knife that didn't come close to touching the table and was set atop an ironed white tablecloth. These were just some of the details I appreciated during our recent Saturday evening dinner. My friend's mom picked out a wonderful Cabernet, and I was ecstatic when I asked and was told that it was from Caymus, one of my favorite Napa Valley vineyards. Spago's bread service was amazing, with an assortment of housemade regular and unleavened breads, artfully presented in a box, the kind of serving container you would get at a high-end kaiseki dinner where the food is a feast for the eyes as well as your tastebuds. We ordered the duck breast and branzino (the second being my favorite of the entrees), both which had influences of Asian ingredients so as I savored each bite I picked up different flavor notes from each herb/seasoning I could identify. For the kids, our server asked the kitchen to craft an elegant parmesan butter spaghetti, which was worthy of the adult menu. A pleasant surprise were the desserts. I expected the usual tiny souffle or miniature what-not, but each was a family-size portion that was definitely designed to be shared. The cookies assortment was delightful, especially with the French madeleines (a hard to find bakery treat that I usually make at home myself) and chocolate filled meringues. I don't usually like meringue, but I was absolutely hooked from the first bite. One of my favorite things about this location though is that it's tucked away in a quiet cul de sac away from the usual busier streets in Beverly Hills. The second I pulled up to the valet, I breathed a sigh of relief that I wouldn't have to be dodging oncoming cars on a busy boulevard or stressing out about cars coming in and out of multiple driveways. Fine dining is a term that is thrown out a lot these days, and a lot of the time it just means higher prices for an above average experience. Spago, however, met the definition and value of what I would hope from a true fine dining destination. I definitely recommend it for celebrating a special occasion or when you feel like you need to slow down and honor the fact that you're still alive in this stressful chaotic life. read more

What a fantastic dinner at Spago. Love the ambiance and décor. Typical of what you would expect with fine dining. The staff are super friendly and attentive. We had a Friday evening reservation for two. After a cocktail each, we started with the Munak Ranch Heirloom Tomatoes. Tomatoes were perfection and full of flavor. I especially loved my main course, which was the Singaporean Style Black Pepper Branzino. Not only was the fish full of amazing flavors, but the sides were also just as amazing. The vegetable stir-fry was lovely and went well with the Branzino. Parking isn't great in Beverly Hills, but for dinner you can always park in the public garages. Makes things so much easier. read more

I wanted to love my experience at Spago, but didn't. I was staying in the area and decided to have dinner here and regretted it. The ambience is nice, service is decent, but my king salmon was really dry. My sashimi appetizer was just ok. Like I said, I really wanted to love it but was underwhelmed and sorely disappointed. I would not choose to go back. read more

Excellent menu, wine selection, and culinary experience. They brought us samples of the glass of wine we selected initially to be sure it was what we wanted. One of us as well as at least another couple at a different table, after having a more indifferent reaction to the taste of our chosen selection, the matre de selected another for us to taste based upon what we told them that furdt taste lacked. And we both selected the 2nd one offered, which I suspected would be more expensive than my original choice but I didn't mind because it was so more what I was in the mood for. The food, wine, service and ambiance all where what one would hope for and expect at such a high end restaurant but too often is disappointed at other restaurants. However, not tonight! We would definitely come again on a special occasion. Our cost with 3 courses and 2 rounds of excellent wines was $200 per person plus tip. And we gladly paid it and would gladly do so again for the same outstanding experience. Thank you! read more

The tasting menu was incredible! This is the first time I have experienced a tasting menu at a Spago restaurant and it did not disappoint! The restaurant is lovely and the energy level was high and lively. The service was fantastic with Jason being our head waiter! Everything was delicious ! The stand outs for me was the cheese course with cheeses from around the world and the mandarin passionfruit Pavlova. What a wonderful dinner and I am happy that the restaurant now has a tasting menu! It lets me experience food that I would not normally order and it was super fun! read more

The whole staff there ar amazing! The food is amazing and the vibe is too. What is truly the most impressive part of the dining experience is that Wolfgang Puck is still involved! This isn't like a celebrity chef. Using his name to get people in. This is Wolfgang truly caring about the restaurant! He walks over to the tables and thanks people for coming in! He doesn't have to do anything like that. I love Spago! Thanks for treating us like family every time we dine there read more

Went for my bday dinner with my boyfriend. We sat on the patio, which was cute. Very well trained staff, with a sommelier to keep your wine glass timely filled. I've been wanting to go for awhile, but honestly wasn't super impressed. The crispy ginger cone hand roll spicy tuna was good, the cone was this crispy candied ginger goodness. The spicy tuna was delicious. The truffle pasta was good. But it was a little too creamy and lacking depth in flavor. The sea bass left me wanting more. It was good but nothing special. I think I liked the sides more. The steak and truffle fries were good too. But again, nothing amazing. Got the chocolate cake thingy. It had different flavors and it was good. But nothing amazing. I expected more. TLDR. It was good, cute, bouii. But really for those who just want to be seen as fancy in Beverly Hills. But for the price you can do better for food and ambiance imho read more

My fiancé and I visit Spago for dinner at least once a month. To state the obvious, the food and ambience are impeccable. The menu changes seasonally, so we tend to try something new every time we return. Our constants are the bread box and the Agnolotti - the Agnolotti filling was recently updated from corn to chestnut for the winter months and it is divine. But what truly keeps us coming back to Spago is the consistent level of service that is nothing short of excellent. From the moment you walk into the beautiful restaurant, you are greeted warmly by the front of house. The waitstaff is simply dynamic. We have enjoyed getting to know everyone we have met so far, but Tim and Jason are standouts in their engaging nature and great energy. Spago will continue to be our top choice for an evening out in the neighborhood. read more

Service is excellent. Cheese plate is drool worthy. Pastas and pizza are the best. Tasty wines. Amazing desserts. Portions small. Great salads. Sea bass lovely. Avoid the hamachi it is no joke three little tiny pieces. Yes, costly but you know that walking in I hope. It has been awhile since I was here and it's still really nice. A bit chilly inside on a cool night but nice. I mean you look around at a sea of overblown egos but that is fun on its own. read more

Food: pretty good. I started with the burrito with the balsamic. Delicious. If you like burrata, get. I'd get it again. Had the cod fish for my entree. Pretty good, but didn't blow my socks off. Kind of simple. Had some crust on it which I couldn't tell what it was, but again.. it was good. Service: Good. Polite. Attentive. Welcoming, but it did take a little bit to get a few drinks. Ambiance: Very nice. Comfortable. Upscale, but not stuffy. Really nice place to grab a drink at the bar or enjoy a meal with friends. AND Wolfgang actually came over to say hello! Icing on the cake. What a nice guy! read more

This is a very late review but one word. Phenomenal. Came here with my Sister and brother-in-law and had the best time. We did the tasting and it was stunning. Aside from the amazing food, I wanted to highlight the service. Lelal and Ryan truly made our experience! My family and I fine dine 2 to 3 times a year as they can get extremely pricey, but this experience was one for the books. Places like this can be a bit daunting and so serious yet they made our experience that much better with something as simple as a smile. Lelal was so pleasant in her service and Ryan explained our dishes with amazing gravitas. Service like this makes me love food experiences - regardless of price. Spago is such a gem. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Had the chance to visit and dine again at Spago, which is in my humble opinion top five restaurants in LA. Our service by the amazing Lielle (I might be butchering the spelling here) and the support staff headed by Jorge who's been a staple at Spago for 28 years now, was outstanding. The food from start to finish was just superb! We had: Samurai Sword cocktail 10/10 Chateauneuf du Pape glass - 10/10 Hearth Baked - 10/10 (bread service) Tuna Cones - 10/10 The Gem salad - 10/10 (divine dressing) Agnolotti del Plin - 10/10 Perigord Truffles w/Risotto - 10/10 Main Diver Scallops - 9/10 Jidori Chicken - 10/10 Chocolate Soufflé - 10/10 I can't recommend this restaurant enough. It has this rare combination of both highest level of standards (service, food, professionalism) along with good old plain personable hospitality. read more

Spago is pure excellence. Food, service, legacy. It's worth coming for a special occasion - I came for my 41st birthday, and they surprised me with a complimentary and festive dessert. Drinks and dinner were top-notch Los Angeles fare. My only nits to pick are probably impossible to solve - I wanted a Spago matchbook, but they only offer books of toothpicks, and since it was both the tail-end of covid and summer, we were seated in a tent-like structure outside, rather than inside the actual restaurant. I used to be acquainted with a gentleman who had a wall plaque from the restaurant commemorating his 1000th visit to Spago. I will never achieve that, but even my one visit was a memory of a lifetime. read more

I have been to Spago thrice. And each time has been an experience to remember. And I now invite you to join me in memory lane, as we venture into the past, and behold memories sponsored by Puck. And by Puck I mean the chef, and also the magical fairy of Shakespearean lore because only unseen magic can explain why I had dinners that transported me into another reality--- one where I was free of woe and want. The type of magic that confines you to the moment, to enjoy it, to behold it, and to taste precious flavors reserved for those who are willing to bite the dream of a place, like Spago. I used to work in a job where I was not the belle of the ball. But I used to have a colleague who made me feel, liked I mattered. Not because I was her cup of tea, but because she did not let who I was taint her opinion of me. She decided who I was based on how we should all treat one another: With an unflinching commitment that all people we come across deserve, as a baseline, our dignity and respect. In return, I helped her achieve a triumph- a new role. The tingle of accomplishment born out of shared support just washed over me---- if Spago could translate that to a bite, it would be a destination meal. To reward my support she took me to Spago. And the first time I went with her, it was a meal, yes, in strictest definition, but in a broader sense, when magic is embraced, it became a life-long memory I cherish. The service was keen. We had a server who was just on point. I asked him to guess what kind of drink we would want next based on who he thought we were. He took a look at my friend, and contorted his face to that of a psychic or detective beholding a crime scene and he determined what our next drinks should be. I cannot remember what he gave us. He gave us something good. Every drink we had that night was good. Ugh. I should take a notebook to spots. But the big take away no drink was bad, every sip was elegant. On this same night we ran into Puck. I was star struck--- I did not see a Sun up close, but I did see a shooting star that I was lucky enough to view. What helped me become a foodie was the tv show Top Chef. It allowed me to see food past what I was served growing up. I wanted to tell Puck that I had seen him on that very show where he made fun of a contestants biscuits. They were not light, quite the contrary Puck said, they were like hockey pucks, that can be thrown as such. He did not want to hear me. He placated me. I get it, we were in a nice place he did not need me to tell him how grand he was. Redwoods do not listen to squirrels. He did take a picture with my friend and I. That is the world of I live in, and I was a welcomed guess in it, cause sometimes the world we know might make us feel like an outcast. The pre-appetizers, I know they have a french name, were sublime. One came with raw food. I forgot to tell them that I can't with raw food. They brought me a new one with appel instead of the fish. And the bite was just exquisite to its core (get it--- cause it was shaved apple?). Service like this, makes me feel like a guest who is immediately covered by a blanket if a breeze picks up to quick. I liked that feeling. Especially when my friend dropped nearly a grand on the experience. On this same experience, I had some corn agnolotti with some shaved truffle. Now, I am a sucker for corn-- roasted, on a cup, steamed. I eat it with joy, especially when it is on a stick and do not have to sit to chew. So my expectations were high and the corn agnolotti did not disappoint. It was creamy, the corn taste was familiar but new--- like meeting your boyfriend, who you have known for years, and seeing him with a fresh cut and suit, and realizing that he still gives you butterflies. Spago made me fall in love with corn again. I reviewed facebook to jog my memory and the last picture on the scroll was an empty plate that once held a type of steak. What further compliment can you give a place then a clean plate. I fully expected to write about my three experiences at Spago in this one review. But then I could not move on from the first time I went. So I may your first trip to Spago be like mine, and let it remind you that first times do not have to be awkward or a weird novelty. They can be everything that you expected and more in. a way that leave a magic mark upon your memory lane. My memory lane has a heart written in chalk that cannot be washed away and dead in the center it reads Spago + Miguel. read more

Spago remains one of my favorite spots to celebrate a special occasion. It is a classic with a great sense for style and elegance and obviously outstanding and creative dishes. There has not been anything that was not a great pleasure for both eyes and taste buds. And it will be selected for future occasions again. PREVIOUS REVIEW Still a dream of a dining place after so many years - and one that sets a very high benchmark. Spago combines classy style with a nonetheless relaxed and charming atmosphere promoted by staff of all ranks. But let's not forget: we really go there for the unparalleled food - a festival of creativity, beautiful arrangements and an astonishing fullness of various flavors. We went with the 8 course tasting menu - which resulted in an unannounced backstage tour through the kitchen, consisted in a seemingly never-ending parade of small color- and flavorful bites, and included a personal note of the Chef about some ingredients... Nothing but dining pleasure asking for return visits. read more

Spago still lives up to its reputation after so many years. Beautiful restaurant, fantastic service, superb food. Still ranked as one of the top restaurants in Los Angeles for a good reason.

The ambiance was great and service was not bad but the food was just average for the price. We ordered pastas and none of them wow us. The waiter did recommend an Alois Kracher dessert wine that was fun to try! I love noble rot wines. This place is fun for the historical and hype factor and used to be "in" 20 years ago but I wouldn't come back. Out of all the celebrity restaurant empires, I would say this is slightly worse than Nobu. read more

It's hard to rate Spago BH because it seems to be heavily frequented by locals which impacts a visitor's experience. The location is epic (they all are). Ambiance - a lovely old world feel. Service is exceptional (they remember your allergens and table preferences): they team together to make sure everything is as perfect as possible so multiple people service your table. Incredible service. The food is fresh, high quality, creative, and with a few Wolfgang Puck nostalgic family recipes. When it comes to dining with my son (a body builder), I would need to order double meals. The small, European style of appealing displays of food is always pleasing to the eye, but not enough to satisfy a young athletic man. We asked for and ordered the largest serving of meat available and son raided the fridge when we got back. While definitely an upscale establishment, it draws a very casual clientele: T-shirts and jeans seem like the norm. A family dining area for kids would be nice (the noisy ones aren't compatible with relishing fine cuisine). Because of the casual clientele and family diners, the atmosphere takes a hit (nothing like a yelling kid and complacent parents seated near you). Courtyard dining is especially beautiful. Lots of locals/regulars known by name eat here, but surprisingly the service for a non-regular was excellent. I gave five stars for the total package: Spago just does everything right. Fabulous dining experience. I do wish they would arrange their tables differently for some quiet spots. read more

Food/drink: not bad, not great either. Bread service, which you pay for, was lackluster. Spanish octopus was pretty good. The tuna cones we found to be too sweet. The scallops were a bit dry and over cooked, but overall not terrible. Best item we thought was the dessert, the chocolate soufflé. The cocktails we had were well made. Service: Found this to be surprisingly underwhelming for this type of restaurant. The service was friendly and cordial, which was nice. We aren't high maintenance diners by any means either but you notice small things that turn you off. Having to constantly ask for a water refill. Having your waitress completely forget an entree order as they hand you the dessert menu, then "split" the one entree they didn't forget, just to charge you a $5 split fee and not take this off the bill at the end for their error. End of the day, who cares, it's $5, but it's the principle of it that is off putting. Ambiance: this was our favorite part of the meal. There are a host of characters across every generation who dine here. People watching here is entertaining and the environment is overall very nice and festive. Overall: We don't regret coming to dine here. The food and service fell short of our expectations. However this is a classic institution we are glad we got the chance to experience while it is still around. read more

Spectacular birthday dinner @ Spago Beverly Hills located in the heart of downtown LA The food was excellent, service was impeccable and the ambience was classy and elegant. Started off dinner with some Kaluga caviar which was amazing and Endive salad. My hubby had the Jidori Chicken which was so tasty and flavorful. Hubby treated this bday girl to the best item on the menu, an A-5 Japanese Wagyu New York Steak. The flavor is so rich and buttery, it literally melts in your mouth. To top it all off, I had the most decadent and beautiful complimentary birthday chocolate cake which was absolute heaven. But the highlight of the night was meeting Wolfgang Puck himself who stopped by our table to say hello! A perfect night from start to finish! read more
