Best Restaurants with a Wood Oven in Glendale

We had a 5:45pm reservation and we were running so late! When my husband called, the gentleman on the phone was so kind and accommodating. When we finally arrived he gave us the option to wait for a table but knew we had to make the 8pm Wicked show at the Pantages. He had saved 3 seats at the bar for us and we were able to get seated right away. Food came out super fast, everything we ordered was delicious! They even made the Witches Brew cocktail for me and my niece non-alcoholic! We ordered the spicy vodka rigatoni, meatballs and pepperoni pizza. Overall. great experience!

Stellar food and service. There are heavier and lighter paths through the menu as well. We had the big pork chop, and it was excellent. The branzino was delicious. The chicory salads is simply one of the best salads Ive ever had. Always get the focaccia. Shoutout to Daniel for amazing service and wine reco’s.

James, or server was outstanding — he explained the options (gave us recommendations) and was attentive without being overbearing. The food was excellent and the pace comfortable to allow us to visit with friends we hadn’t seen for awhile.

Delicious food and absolutely lovely service. The red snapper schnitzel is absolutely scrumptious. I’ll continue going back.

We had a few snags being seated. The restaurant has a large draft area and when we asked to be moved to another two top that was empty we were told no as it was reserved. Except so was our table. The dinners were after us that took the table. We were offered a communal table seat by the manager but the host - he would not budge and honestly had an attitude all night even when we thanked him and said good night. We pushed the seating aside and dug into the menu with our waiter who was super attentive. Explained all the dishes. Made excellent recommendations and spaced everything out perfectly. He made sure we knew dishes were to be shared which we usually like to do anyway but made this made our choices even better. Let me just say start with the dates- you will be drinking the butter they are in! We added chicory with bacon vinaigrette which was a warm tasty bite of goodness. One of my favorites was the seasonal squash with farmers cheese. I can’t wait to eat the left overs! Then the main mushroom crusted pork chop. It’s literally one of the largest chops I have seen. So delicious. Get yourself some cheddar potatoes to round out your meal! We came with enough packages it looked santa had come early! The staff is supper attentive and continually acknowledged our anniversary which was so wonderful. The manager went above and beyond to assist. Everyone there seems to help each other and it creates a welcoming atmosphere that makes us want to dine again. Make sure you get a reservation as we are already looking at booking our next one.
