- DDiana1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoFriendly and personable waitstaff elevated our dining experience. As a former Southern Californian I had to go with the fish tacos. I was not disappointed, large portioned and tasty. My son added the focaccia bread to his chicken parm and the bread was the highlight of the meal. I highly recommend this casual yet elegant eatery.More infoChef Geoff's West EndPrice: Moderate• American• West End•4.5
