- EEdmondNew Orleans / Louisiana •1 review5.0Dined on Jun 20, 2025An absolutely wonderful experience at this little gem. Admittedly, the place was empty because our group was having an early dinner. But the Posto 896 team treated the three of us like we were their family in from a long trip. The service was first class and the food was likewise delicious. Don’t let its exterior fool you. Posto 896 is worthy of an early evening stop.More infoPosto 896 Italian & Hungarian CuisinePrice: Moderate• Italian• Encino•4.7
- LLeslieVIPLos Angeles •55 reviews4.0Dined on Jun 8, 2025Been eating there for years since they opened! Service was off! No manager on the patio to oversee service. There were times no one was on the patio for assistance. The server could not understand English. When asked what was in the gluten free pasta, she replied by saying spaghetti. We needed to know what kind of flour was used. She didn’t offer to ask the chef. My veal chop was served raw and had to be sent back. I had to eat when my party was done. They could have offered free drinks or desserts. Very disappointed in service and we brought our friends for their first time there. The food was delicious though. Just not a Drago experience!More infoPanzanella RistorantePrice: Expensive• Italian• Sherman Oaks•4.7
