Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Los Angeles / Orange County

My experience at Providence was truly exceptional. What I value most in fine dining is outstanding service, and Providence exceeded all expectations. The staff was remarkably attentive, warm, and gracious, ensuring every detail was thoughtfully addressed. The cuisine was exquisite, with each dish served at a perfectly timed pace, enhancing the overall dining experience. It was a flawless evening that exemplified the art of hospitality.

food was not as good as it normally is… a bit bland

It’s a small and cozy restaurant with magnificent food and an owner who makes you feel like family. Try their pastas which they are the best but, whatever you order, you won’t be disappointed. Don’t forget the dessert, the panna cotta is delicious.

We had the pre fixe menu on Christmas Day. The food was phenomenal and the space was gorgeous. We thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience and would recommend this place for special occasions. The wait for our food was on the longer side, but it was Christmas Day so I presume it was due to being short staffed on a busy dining day.

Comfortable and casual (with a capital "C" for each). Absolutely loved the tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich. -- and the choice of jazz as ambience was well chosen.
