Upper West is a real gem and it's one of my two favorite restaurants on the Westside. The quality of food never ceases to amaze me and the staff is both competent and friendly. The original artworks on the wall only add to the comfort and pleasant atmosphere of the restaurant.

chef Raphael Lunetta is a master. He offers a fantastic menu that is both relatable yet hip and cool and maintains an environment that you never get tired of going to. His food is spot on with options to please the most picky diners if you’re lucky enough to have Jeffrey as your waiter, you are marvel in his ability to cover an entire room with skill and grace, and a terrific sense of humor. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

We had a wonderful dinner (business meeting). Fortunately, we were able to get a table in the back as the noise in the front room was loud (ok LOUD). The food was delicious, the service was superb and the ambiance was nice. The restaurant was jammed on a Wednesday night. That in and of itself is a positive review.
