What’s dat ya brewing?
It’s one of the best places to visit I LA hands down. Service was quick and gave excellent recommendations. Kid friendly menu and everything was delicious. The drink choices were unlimited, and everything was cooked for perfection. Our favorite course was the bone marrow. It was a great start to a wonderful dining experience. The pork was well seasoned and piping hot. The pizza was seasoned just right with a great amount of sauce. They also had refillable drink options, but not many.

My favorite restaurant in town. Always recommend it to friends who are visiting. Bestia just never disappoints. Bone marrow is a must try. We always order 2 servings.

One of the most incredible meals I’ve ever had. Definitely a must-go if it’s your first time or new to LA. Place is electric! Don’t miss the ricotta. Prawns, scallops, and Caesar salad were incredible appetizers. Can’t miss the bone marrow dish too! Ask for a bone marrow shot and they’ll pour a drink down through the bone lol pastas all perfect and tasty. Olive oil cake dessert was memorable as well. Couldn’t recommend this place more.

Great atmosphere! This is the second time I have had dinner, and I want to give it 5 stars, but I just can’t. The scallop appetizer was delicious, and the melding of flavors was on point. I was disappointed in the pasta, which was very small and sweet. It literally tasted like Thanksgiving dinner rolled up in a tiny pillow. This might sound good, but it was not what I was expecting, and it just felt a bit off. The donut and ice cream dessert was delicious. Service was very slow, but she was lovely whenever she did drop by the table.

I came here for my birthday dinner with my boyfriend, and everything I ate here blew me away from beginning to the end. First off, the Herb Caesar Salad is NOTHING like your typical caesar salad. This one was from heaven or something. The blend of herbs and spices on it tasted so unique but pleasantly complementary. They also top it off with squid ink breadcrumbs and lemon zest. I’d say that was my favorite dish because it just blew me away.

Sat at the chefs table and had a fantastic meal. The best meal I’ve had in LA at this price point. The service and attention to detail were fantastic. We ordered the Caesar salad, and we watched the staff hand rub each lettuce leaf with dressing, and individually arrange each leaf in the bowl (and it wasn’t a small salad).

is it one of those places that you visit and you just know you’re gonna have a damn good time. It’s like your taste buds dancing in the dark naked on a Saturday night playoff life enjoying the music that is your beating heart. It’s magical. Let your heart and stomach guide your decisions on placing your orders and I guarantee, you’ll never fail. Keep it simple follow the gut, and I promise you you won’t be in a rut.

This place gets a ton of hype. But unlikely many places in LA that get it undeserved, this place is truly quite good. I went here only once but still think about how good it was to this day. Will definitely be making a return trip soon as it’s a place you don’t easily forget. Highly recommend. Make a reservation.
