I love your reviews of places that are new or still developing because you’re always so kind and understanding about their food-and-cocktails-perfecting journeys. The way you focus on the yummy bits and tenderly leave out the not-so-yummy bits by the side of the plate is just so graceful. I’ve read a food reviews that are much more aggressive in tone in the past but I never really enjoyed that style of reviewing much. With your story-telling, I feel I can get to know you as a person who is actually eating there and one who is also very accommodating in your little ways. I love that about you, Danielle! Pears aren’t my fave unless they come in crunchy. And drinks are the most important part of any food joint, and especially a bar. Hopefully The Phoenix will improve on that! 😀 xoxo

Thank you so much, Shanaz! Since I’ve never opened or run a restaurant, I can understand that it’s extremely difficult to get a restaurant up and running to standard.But i think it’s important to be honest when reviewing restaurants and not too be too harsh because it’s a person’s business and their baby. On top of that, being rude doesn’t help anyone improve. Plus with me running a blog, there are people who critique me as well and I’m so much more responsive when it’s critical and not aggressive. And I’m just like you, drinks can totally be the most important to a food place, especially a bar!

That steak does look really juicy even though you say it was lacking something. And the fried looks amazing – I love it when they keep the skins on. But mostly it’s the sausage dish that is making me drool right now!

Yeah the steak was a bit misleading in appearance which was disappointing. But the sausage totally made up for it!!!

Your food pictures are amazing! They make the food look even more mouth watering if that’s even possible. I hope to visit my sister in LA sometime soon this year so I’ll definitely look into this spot. I never know where the hot new restaurants are there.

Yasmin, yes definitely check out the food places here in Los Angeles whenever you visit your sister. The food scene is exploding rapidly which means whenever you come out, I’m sure there will be something you love!

Please excuse the drool all over my keyboard. That steak looks delicious! Definitely have to add this place to my LA to-do list.

LOLOL your keyboard drool is totally welcome on this blog!

Chloe says:

Shame the cocktails weren’t amazing but the main meal looks absolutely fantastic! Hopefully I can get to LA one day!

The holidays are coming up so hopefully you can try them here in LA soon!

That Grilled Lamb Sausage – Merguez and the skirt steak look amazing. I have some great recommendations from you to check out when I hit LA again.

Wowthese foods are yummylicious. Add it with beer!

The steak looks so delicious! I love chimichurri. I’m sorry it wasn’t as good as it looks.

Thank you so much, Claudia!

Great review, nice pics too, I would have the salad being a veggy myself, which looked very good and had all the ingredients that I love, thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much!
