From the moment we walked in we were greeted with smiles. That contributed throughout our 2.5 hour dining experience. Service was great, food was great.
The ambiance and service are the best of La Boheme. Our waiter Bryson was very attentive to all guests and the dog ! He was available and fast and gave great recommendations. Their happy hour menu is of great value the rest is a little on the expensive side. Delicious oysters , Salmon crudo and cod !
It was my first time and it was great! Our waiter (donât remember his name) was so patient and kind. My friend and I will definitely be coming back!
This vegan restaurant was definitely hit or miss depending on what you order. The Caesar salad and veggie calamari were great. The big green salad is really a big green garden salad â you canât go wrong. The garlic bread is very ho-hum. Big failure on the entrée - truffle tagliatelle - gummy and weird and just not good. Very pleasant staff and like that the water glasses are large and substantial. I enjoyed the âhitsâ just as I would in a non-vegan restaurant, but the âmissesâ might drive a non-vegan out the doorâ¦
I really wanted to love the place, with all the great reviews and I have been a fan of Double Zero, Plant Food + Wine and other MK restaurants, but this was a little of a disappointing experience. The "not pastas" we had were pretty good, the Arancini and the Veggie Calamari. Both set up positive expectations as to what would follow with the pastas, however, the "hoagie" garlic bread???...is a miss. When you have a pizza oven, why on earth would you serve this? The Wine options were quite nice, and the staff were kind enough to make some adjustments to the blaring 90's alt rock music. The pasta we shared was the English Pea Ravioli and it was unremarkable and lacked definition of flavors. I hate posting a disappointing review out into the world and even when the manager (i assume) asked me if everything was good, I said yes, but then he pressed "was it VERY good??" Ugh... I had to be honest now... he opened the door ... and I just said that it was good, but not great, and explained the dish fell flat. He didn't do or say much ... just slinked away. The upside was our server was great, A+ and the wine was very nice. But the support staff kept trying to clear plates that clearly were not finished. I hope some tweaks to a few things in the kitchen and FOH, will raise the level to where Sestina's potential lies. For now... I'm back to Double Zero or another un-named vegan pasta place not far away.
While the vegan part is commendable, the food itself is not so good. Probably a better than the average over-soused Italian restaurant fare, but not up to par with Double Zero, and far below Plant, Food and Wine. The ambiance is not great either, but this is true for most of the surrounding Culver City restaurants.
Food was delicious!! Super tasty we were a party of 3 friends and everyone was happy. Outside seating in front of the restaurant so you could almost be in Europe LOL. Definitely has that cafe vibe. Not pretentious and good size portions. Chocolate gelato and Pane Cotta soo good. Definitely worth going to Vegan and Non-Vegans will be happy⦠The flavors are so good!!
The food is always good but I wish the pizza crust was more crispy . I always ask for it to be crispy but it always comes your soggy . We ordered the tie dye pizza and the first time I had it it was perfect but the last two times the crust was not as good . The pesto pasta was good but could have had more seasoning. The cessation salad on happy hour was delicious !
Our waitress Olivia was the nicest ! Weâd love to visit again and hopefully sheâll be our server again! She helped make my Fatherâs Day the best. Thank you Olivia
Always great food every time.
