"Both me and my wife really enjoyed this restaurant even though it was inside a department store. The food was flavorful; the grilled chicken was excellent. A great place for meeting up with some friends and sharing a couple of plates!"

"Dine LA menu was tasty but reviewing prices for regular items on the menu did not denote a savings by having the 3 courses. Still the food was delicious. Mini fish tacos, mini chicken sandwiches with a tasty spicy sauce and berry cobbler a la mode. Service was very attentive and all the staff were most pleasant."

"Blue Stove is an amazing find and to think inside a Nordstroms!! The wait staff is super friendly and the tapas style food is arguable some of the best we've had. Definitely worth it, even if there is no view at the restaurant."

"Small plates meant for sharing, our waiter suggested a few items we normally would not have tried and we are glad we did. Everything was quite tasty."
