    We had a very delicious dinner at Ysabel Tuesday, my heirloom tomato and burrata salad was the best I've ever had and my steak surprised me by how delicious it was. Our server was professional, efficient and friendly. The ambiance was absolutely beautiful. In short a heavenly evening!

    We booked a resi and still had to wait 50 minutes to be seated because they overbooked. While we waited they would seat people who would cut the line and looked the “LA part.”

    I’ve done my research to understand why you are now cashless, something I didn’t find out until after the meal because I don’t read the wall of words at the end of your open table reservation any more than I read the terms of service before purchasing an app. I work 60/wk; don’t have time. Your manager had the gall to tell me I should have read it 7x by then. 7! My friend and I barely even read the menu, as it took us 2 mo to even find the time to celebrate her birthday. We spent the evening talking to each other, had been asked for our order 5x before picking the 1st couple of things that looked good (they were not). We didn’t scour every bit of the 2-sided menu. Do you? Those are the only 2 places where the policy might even be stumbled upon. She mentioned the website, but the idea that I go to a website beforehand is laughable. You think I’m so giddy to try this mediocre food I went to the website? We were there because the place I originally chose didn’t have a res left late enough to accommodate my friend’s drifting work schedule and last minute had to grab a reservation here. So there we are at my friend’s birthday dinner and I only had cash. No accommodation made for me, although the man with a wad of hundreds the night before was apparently accommodated, as well he should have been. I did my research. You can request cashless, but once the meal has been consumed, if cash is all your customer has, it is a valid form of payment for debts in the US. “This note is legal tender for all debts public and private.” It’s right there on the bills. I knew the manager was not correct in bullying me into making my friend pay for the meal. I genuinely wish my friend had just left after the meal was over, so I could have seen what you’d have done then. Call the police to arrest me for failing to produce an Amex while cash + 30% sat on the table? I have 800+ credit, but not everyone does. I have family who can’t get a card. This practice is classist & discriminatory.

    This restaurant was so delicious. I was expecting it to be good but most of the time I try a social media appointed great restaurant I leave disappointed. It's safe to say this was not at all the case at Ysabel. Everything we ordered was melt in your mouth heavenly. The hand cut rigatoni put Jon and Vinny's to shame. The Brussels sprouts were just the leaves which I've never had before and so crunchy and delicious with the perfect amount of tangy flavor. The drinks were incredible. The crème brûlée was to die for even tho I was so full I could barely swallow the bites I took. On top of all that the restaurant itself was beautiful. This is a great place to come to celebrate or come on a date- honestly to have a great time and impress anyone. Every staff member we encountered was kind and helpful. It was overall an amazing experience. I will be returning without a doubt in the near future and probably many times after that.

    Over all it would have been a wonderful 25th birthday dinner for my twins, but considering we sat outside. The fact that it rained that morning and the chair I was sitting in, soaked my pants thru to my underwear. I was not happy. Accidents happen, but the fact that while I went to the bathroom to see what I could do to make myself more comfortable. My family brought what happened up with our server, who just laughed it off. No one bothered to follow up with us. For this reason my overall rating was as low as I can give. I’m 64 years old and have never been treated this poorly from New York to California in any restaurant I’ve dined in.

    Making my way through L.A. one restaurant at a time. The quality and the value of the food was pretty exceptional, as I would expect from a restaurant like this. There is a little bit of room for improvement for the service and outside ambiance. Perhaps night time would be a better out-door seating experience with the light setup. I definitely recommend in-door seating for a better overall experience. I would come again at another time eventually. Nice little spot!
