Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Hollywood

Amazing food, even the bread and butter was some of the best I’ve ever had. Went there to celebrate our anniversary and were given champagne to celebrate when they found out my wife was pregnant they came back with a non alcoholic wine she could have. Dry aged ribeye was flawless and the duck fat potatoes were next level. Finished with wonderful Banoffee pie. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a great steakhouse meal and can’t wait to return. Prices are high but absolutely worth the quality of what you get.

The most stand out point at our visit was the restaurant's impeccable service. They were very meticulous in creating a pregnancy friendly meal for me and explaining each component of my substitutions during the meal. When asked how each course was prepared, they responded with detailed answers. One suggestion I would make is to have the host/hostess offer suggestions on which entree to choose for a special diet customer. I did have to proactively ask about how the wagyu & duck entrees were normally cooked as I assumed they are served medium rare (too undercooked for a pregnant woman). However, they did kindly offer to cook them well done for me when I asked. Other than that, I fully enjoyed majority of the courses. The only course I didn't enjoy was the silken tofu substitute for the sashimi course. I felt the pickled component overpowered the delicate tofu and threw the dish off balance. My husband absolutely enjoyed the dessert courses especially the chocolate petit fours.

Such a lovely experience at Da Barbara! Our group of friends regularly dine out and we love to try interesting restaurants. Da Barbara is worth the visit. We dined in the downstairs area which overlooks the open kitchen where Barbara herself is preparing the meal. The room itself is so beautiful with a majestic chandelier holding center court. Its lovely, elegant, yet very comfortable and cozy at the same time. The food was absolutely stellar! The pasta is fresh and handmade, the sea bass was spectacular, and don't miss out on the meatballs. It is BYOB, and we brought a bottle of bubbly to start, and some Italian reds to pair with the meal. The only problem is parking, so arrive a little early so you can find something available on the street as there is not a lot or valet. We will be back for sure!

Waitstaff was super nice and attentive and the food was fantastic.

The experience was great, manager Daniel took great care of us for the wife’s birthday. We will be back again…
