Best Authentic Restaurants in Whittier

We had a nice experience last night. That was until the bill came. When ordering drinks we asked what the cost was for a different type of tequila and the server said $4 per drink. Some of us agreed and when the bill arrived it was an additional $18 per drink not $4. We asked to speak to the manager and after almost an hour he took off one drink ›$20 (not including the additional $18) and didn't add didn't include the mandatory tip because we were a group of 8. We still tipped the server 20% because he was attentive and kind.

We have been coming here since it opened along with its sister restaurant Cha Cha's, just a few doors down. Our favorite spot if it is just the two of us is the bar. The bartenders have changed over the years, but the caliber of service has not. If you arrive late for a drink & dinner, you are never rushed...actually I hadn't even realized we were the last as my husband and I asked about different liquors we hadn't noticed before. You can't go wrong with the Almafi Fizz, my favorite and one of their signature drinks. Their food is outstanding, love the scallops! Last night we went for my husband's birthday...it was Monday night special, lasagna, garlic bread & Caesar salad for I believe was $20. I can eat, yet I took half of it home! My husband loves their chicken parmesan...he too took half home and was pleased that they presented him with tiramisu & a candle for his birthday...the extra touch appreciated! Yes, I would give them a 10! We will be back next week for a relaxing dinner or maybe Cha Cha's for a little more noise... let's face it, tacos, tequila brings the noise level up!

Always a wonderful experience here. LUIS our server was outstanding! Very professional and attentive. Food was amazing as always. Ordered the Ribeye with Parmasean Garlic Homemade Fries. Best steak in Whittier. Came exactly as we ordered it, medium rare. Focaccia bread is a must! Cesar Salad was delicious. Service was impeccable!
