  We got together with our good friends to dine at what used to be an excellent restaurant in Westlake Village. We were very disappointed with the food quality, but their sourdough bread is still the best! Besides the bread being the highlight, we were disappointed with everything else. The beet salad had absolutely no flavor, the lobster bisque was fishy and had absolutely no lobster in it (unlike Maestro's lobster bisque that is absolutely the best), and the short rib pappardelle was fair, at best. The ambiance is excellent, so the next time we go we will just order bread from the bar and enjoy happy hour.

  We visited the restaurant on Saturday evening for dinner. **Ambience:** The acoustics were disappointing — the space was noisy, which made conversation difficult. **Food:** - *Starters*: We ordered the beet salad and carpaccio. The carpaccio unexpectedly contained capers, which were not listed on the menu. The beet salad was fine, but nothing memorable. - *Main Courses*: Short rib pappardelle and mushroom risotto. Both dishes were good, but neither stood out as exceptional. - *Dessert*: We were surprised to find no classic Italian options such as tiramisu or affogato. We had the sundae, which was just average. **Service:** Initially, service was disappointing. As mentioned, the carpaccio contained capers we don’t enjoy, and the waiter, who seems to be very pleasant in general, did not check on us after serving the starters. We ended up “picking out the capers” ourselves. When the waiter finally returned, he confidently insisted the menu listed capers. We asked to see the menu, but after waiting several minutes without receiving it, we had to ask another server. However, once I expressed my dissatisfaction, the waiter relayed it to the manager. He apologized and offered a generous gesture: they removed the wine and carpaccio from the bill and treated us to dessert — without us requesting any compensation. **Overall Impression:** Their response was professional and exceeded my expectations, leaving a positive impression despite the rocky start. It’s clear they value their guests. The restaurant is pleasant, with good food and attentive management, but given the many dining options available, I’m not sure it ranks at the top of my list.

  We sat in the quiet dining room. Other areas would have been too noisy.

  The place is beautiful you would think for such a high class restaurant, you would have exceptional service. The service was just awful! Was celebrating my father’s 84th bday, sat in the patio. It took 45 min to get a drink!! It took 1hr 45 min to get our dinner!! They comped our meal but will not be returning. Was such a disappointment. I’ll Take our favorite little hole in the wall restaurants with amazing service and food over this any day!
