    From the moment we stepped into TLV Tapas, we knew we were in for a treat. This restaurant truly shines, offering a delightful dining experience that exceeded all expectations. The service was nothing short of impeccable. Our server, Lila was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to help guide us through the menu.For a question she was unsure of, she promptly got us an answer. The timing of each course was perfect, allowing us to savor each dish without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. I would only suggest making sure that drinks hit the table before food. Timing is key, so maybe placing the order for drinks 3 mins before the apps will help. And oh, the food! Every single tapa we ordered was a done really well. The ingredients were fresh and vibrant, and the flavors were expertly balanced. Each dish was prepared to perfection, showcasing the rich and diverse flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. Only our rib pasta needed some salt, which is easy to fix. And to finish, the Flourless Dubai Chocolate Cake with Knafe and Pistachio Cream was absolutely delightful! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, creating the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal. In summary, TLV Tapas is a culinary gem. The combination of delicious food, impeccable service, and a charming atmosphere makes it a must-visit. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a truly exceptional dining experience. We can't wait to return!

    Great food and great service. Midweek birthday dinner party - so nice to be able to hear each other and the big round table was great for conversation. The chicken kabob was exceptionally good.

    Absolutely loved the dinner experience at Monaco Encino. Tasty drinks with a wonderful presentation, delicious homemade pasta, and I'm still thinking about their Malabi Martini dessert. The manager and servers were so nice and welcoming too! Definitely a place to try for a date night or girls night!
