    Each time I step into Catch LA, I feel like royalty. The ambiance is sexy, but it is the service that truly steals the show each time! Every member of the staff exudes professionalism and genuine warmth. They anticipate our needs before we even realize them, making every experience at my favorite LA restaurant impeccable - so much so that we've made coming to Xmas Eve dinner at Catch LA an annual tradition with my chosen family! I have no notes on the effortless quality of food, beverages, and, most importantly, THE SERVICE and THAT is why Catch LA is a step above the rest! Come for a cocktail at the bar, enjoy stunning rooftop views of the city while having delectable food and beverages, and experience dining at its finest! Thanks Catch LA - until next time. - Rodney and Friends.

    Mastro’s offers an upscale dining experience that’s perfect for steak lovers. The ambiance is elegant and inviting, with attentive, knowledgeable staff. The dry-aged ribeye was cooked to perfection, with a melt-in-your-mouth texture and a beautifully caramelized crust. Side dishes like the garlic truffle cauliflower and scalloped potatoes are a must. Five stars!

    We had booked a reservation for Christmas Eve a month in advance, but when we arrived we were not seated for 30 minutes past our reservation time. Nevertheless, once we were seated the service was prompt and friendly, and all of the food was delicious. The various vegetable sides were terrific, including the broccolini, the kombucha squash, and the carrots.
