Boyle Heights Restaurants

My husband and I decided to try this restaurant for the first time for our anniversary, and the experience did not disappoint! All of the food and drinks we ordered were phenomenal, but the standout of this restaurant is the service. Our waiter was extremely attentive and friendly. All of the food and drinks came out promptly. We asked a question about one of our drinks and the bartender came over to our table to answer the question and talked cocktails with my husband. A fantastic experience! The dining room is on the noisier side, but overall the atmosphere is very fun, lively, and welcoming.

Bavel is perfection! The hospitality, the food, the atmosphere… WOW! Just wow! What a great team, bringing the most incredible dining experience to life! Thank you for one of the most amazing dinners in LA!

The original booking was for the VIP Roof Garden experience, but the weather conditions meant that we had to be served in the main restaurant. The service throughout our evening was nothing short of excellent and this significantly added to the enjoyable experience. The old saying is that 'you get what you pay for' and there is no better example of this than our fantastic experience on the evening.

We came here once many years ago and had forgotten just how good it was. So glad we came back! Still one of the best restaurants in LA. We tried all the popular dishes: Roasted Bone Marrow, Scallop Crudo, Cavatelli alla Norcina, and Grilled Kurobuta Pork Chop. Loved every single dish! The Pork was a pleasant surprise, as we don’t normally order pork. This one was so flavorful, juicy and tender. We finished the meal on a refreshing note with the Meyer Lemon Ice Cream / Sorbet. Definitely worth coming back for!

My dining experience there was heavenly. My husband and I met some friends for dinner. The food was absolutely delicious. The ambience was so beautiful. The service was outstanding. The goat empanadas and the crabby pork belly were amazing.
