Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Alhambra

4.95 out of 5. Let me explain… we had an amazing window table, view was spectacular. The only nuance was that we were too close to the kitchen doors, so a bit noisy. However, the experience quickly faded away the noise. The settings were top notch, the ambiance couldn’t be better, very classy and distinguished. The food was out of this world, we enjoyed the distinct and special touch of flavors infused by the chef creations. The wine and cocktails selection was adequate and expansive. I ordered the ribeye steak and I couldn’t be more pleased with my selection. Also, as my 1st course I enjoyed the Caledonian Prawns . Amazing! Definitely I will repeat the experience and recommend the restaurant to my friends and colleagues.

Music a bit too loud in the back seating area! But food was great. Drinks a bit overpriced but it was a celebration dinner.

Had a wonderful time at Saffy’s last night — I have high expectations for this restaurant “group” and y’all deliver great food and service every time. This was also the first time in a long while that I’ve received a bill and thought “this is less than what I was expecting,” a rare joy in these economic times. Happy holidays and thank you!

My daughter and I dined at Bestia as first-timers before heading to the Disney Concert Hall to listen to the amazing Jennifer Hudson. Several parties around us were doing the same thing-great minds think alike. After receiving lots of helpful suggestions from Franklin, our server, we opted for a glass of Riesling and a Cruise Control as our beverages and shared a Margherita pizza, Cavatelli alla Norcina, and the Grilled Pork Collar. All were delicious options. The pizza was so flavorful with just the right amount of char on the crust. The pasta married the sauce, sausage and shaved truffles so well, and the pork collar was sublime; tender and flavorful. For dessert we shared the Holiday Cookie Frozen Torte which gave us a little of everything-cake, coconut, pecans and ice cream. Franklin and his team were friendly, attentive, and professional. We both agreed we would love to dine here again

Wonderful meal. Exquisite omakase. Hon took good care of us.
