    We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Perch LA, and it was truly unforgettable. The staff went above and beyond — they surprised us with a lovely ice cream dessert with a candle, took a photo for us, and wished us a happy anniversary not once but twice! The rooftop view was beautiful, the ambiance was vibrant yet cozy, and the overall atmosphere made us feel special. It was one of the most heartwarming anniversary dinners we’ve ever had. Thank you, Perch LA, for making our night so memorable.

    Mrs. Fish has truly become a hidden gem for me, my friends, and my colleagues. The staff is consistently exceptional, the food is flawless, and the happy hour deals are simply unbeatable! The cocktails are masterfully crafted—each one better than the last. I visit often, so I was surprised this was my first time being served by Brian—but what a standout team member! He was incredibly kind, attentive, and warm. Even with a packed crowd, he made sure we were taken care of the entire time. Thank you, Mrs. Fish, for always delivering such a great experience—and a special thank you to Brian! I can’t wait to come back soon.
