“Stopped by Alisa the other night and had a really great experience. The atmosphere is beautiful without feeling pretentious, the staff was friendly and attentive, and everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. The seafood was especially good, and the wine selection was impressive too. Definitely one of those places where you end up staying longer than planned. Looking forward to coming back soon.”
“Finding this place was the sweetest surprise! It’s so cute and unassuming from the outside and then as you walk in and through to the courtyard, it just keeps getting better and more beautiful! The atmosphere is inviting and tranquil, but also just the right amount of liveliness. Our waiter was wonderful and super helpful when it came to choosing a wine. The food we had was delicious, especially the lobster risotto! We were sitting there wishing we brought more people with us so we could try a little bit of everything, ha! Guess we’ll just have to go back! I’ve already told so many people about our experience here and I keep recommending it to anyone I know in the area. Can’t wait to visit again”
“Absolutely amazing experience at Alisa Wine & Friends. Everything was unbelievably delicious — every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is stylish, cozy, and very relaxing. The staff were incredibly polite, attentive, and welcoming the entire evening. One thing that really stood out was how pleasant the whole place smelled — even the restroom was spotless and had an amazing fresh scent, which says a lot about the attention to detail here. Highly recommend this place if you want delicious food, great service, and a truly enjoyable atmosphere. Definitely coming back again.”
“Stylish place with Mediterranean greek cuisine. food was tasty and nicely plated. we ordered three different mezze plates and Got only one pitta. and when we were asking for two more they will bring me one by one. That was kind of funny and strange. Service was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Our waiter was very helpful to pick the best dishes.”
“This is a very warm place, where the atmosphere is like being invited to a good friend's house: cozy, calm, without pretentiousness, and the dinner is easy and homey. The food arrives quickly, everything is delicious and made with love. The lamb skewers is simply magnificent. Seriously, it's probably one of the best in LA: tender, juicy, not overcooked, not burnt—the meat literally melts in your mouth. But if you decide to order the octopus... be prepared for a gastronomic twist. Because what you'll get isn't an "octopus," but a single, beautifully and artistically arranged tentacle. We were completely surprised. We literally waited for a couple of minutes for the rest of the octopus to emerge to applause. A special plus is the waiter. He talks to you as if he's known you for ten years and is ready to give you advice on life and mortgages. Verdict: The place has an atmospheric atmosphere, delicious food, and is a very pleasant evening with friends. However, the prices are still higher than in similar restaurants of this type. I get it—Venice, the atmosphere, the style... but the wallet doesn't quite understand it. And another important point: there's no hard liquor here—only wine and beer. So if you were hoping for "something stronger," you'll have to rely solely on the atmosphere to boost your spirits.”
