    Wonderful evening at Baltaire! A special thank you to Xavier for going above and beyond to make our date night memorable. He personally checked on us throughout the evening, making us feel genuinely welcomed. Our server, Beth, was exceptional—attentive, knowledgeable, and spot-on with her cocktail recommendations and the perfect red wine pairing for my filet mignon. The food, ambiance, and hospitality were outstanding. Thank you both for such a beautiful evening. We can’t wait to return!

    Prior to October 13th, I managed to book a reservation for Holy Basil. It was my first time in a while visiting LA so I wanted to go out and meet up with my friends (3 of us in total) at Holy Basil. Now, I will say on a Sunday night, they are busy so I would suggest planning eating earlier on the weekends. But that's not to say they have bad service; to be fair, they had only 2 people waiting tables as fast as possible so I understand why it took a while for them to get our table ready. Just make sure to be forward to let the waiters or whomever is working to let them know about your reservation. Despite the busy night, they did so well with just trying their best to accommodate us regardless of the many hiccups that happen (wifi disconnected so our orders disappeared; they compensated with free drinks). Also, along with running out of ingredients for some dishes (again, a busy day) was another hiccup. All I can say that is I'm genuinely grateful that the staff did their best despite the rush hour. And yeah, I could give a lower rating but sometimes we have to remember that we are human at the end of the day. My friends, who are local to the area, thanked me for taking me out to an awesome Thai restaurant because sometimes, even though you can be a local, you can possibly miss out on great places if you don't explore the areas around you. I hope I can visit LA more often and hang out with friends to take them to wonderful places to hang out and eat dinner. Im gonna remember this place for a long time, thats for sure! (^ u ^)/
