Best restaurants near me in Westlake, CA

Having been to Bavel many times, it was nice to try Saffy's. While there are some similarities, I loved the uniques food -- the Saffron Muscles, Humus choices and kabob's are a must-- the less noisy and smaller sized restaurant was appreciated. The menu offered wonderful choices. The vibe was casual and it felt like a neighborhood place rather than a must be seen restaurant. Highly recommend going to Saffy's.

It was our first time at Perch LA for our company celebration and it was truly amazing! From the second we walked in we were greeted and even had our seats accommodating due to it being cold outside. All three of our servers were polite, attentive and friendly. I would definitely come back and would encourage everyone to visit. Thank you Perch LA

This was my first time indulging in Bavel and I’m surprised it took me this long! The food was better than I expected and definitely is a standout in terms of unique flavor that go beyond the normal LA food scene taste. The service is one to admire - excellent timing and a great explanation of every dish. We especially appreciated the napkin folding during “bathroom breaks”. Can’t stop thinking about the celery root and rack of lamb.

Had a work dinner here and it's still one of my favorite spots on the east side. Food was excellent and loved the Xmas decorations. Hope they stay up through New Years.

Another exceptional meal at Bestia. The pizza is what brings me in every time and it never disappoints. Apple and endive salad and Caesar are standards here and always worth sharing with the table. The chicken gizzards were a great recent add as was the duck. Both were special. And the new wine pairings (3 levels for something for everyone) elevated the entire meal.
