Sogno Toscano Cafe´& Wine Bar

Wine bar

👍👍 Fabulous new hot spot on Montana. Was very impressed by the details and the vibes. Felt like I was time warped to a cafe in Italy. The ingredients taste very authentic. Quaint Italian market. I am looking forward to buying their imported products and making Italian food at home.

Food House Restaurant

Persian restaurant

👍👍 Amazing home style middle eastern food. The owner and her two kids are very hands on and sincerely care about the customer's experience. This reminds me of a tastier mom and pops version of Raffi's (Glendale). They make everything in house (including ice cream and yogurt).

Three Borders Brunch and grill

Restaurant

👍👍 This darling little restaurant has the touch of "family owned" that I haven't seen in soooooo long. The first time here, the daughter took her time to help me as I was was explaining that I wanted a fish burrito. (Pero no hay). The menu item I ordered was similar but way better... a Fish Tronquito....

Waffle Love - Valencia

Restaurant

👍👍 First time going to Waffle Love in Valencia, 2/26/2023. I got the Breakfast Sammy with everything on it, OMG that sandwich was great, my only issue was the waffle seemed a little under cooked. I still eat it. LOL

Bengee Sushi

Sushi restaurant

👍 The food was excellent, very fresh and light and tender. Also they offered rolls that we haven't seen elsewhere. Not a fan of the pork on the sushi roll. The young man at the front however was not hospitable, his responses short and not very helpful... And actually incorrect sometimes. Actual serv...

Tommy and Atticus

Bakery

😐 We had the sandwich, the almond croissant, and some espresso. The sandwich was disappointing - it was a bit dry and seemed to be missing the pickled onions; the bread was pretty good; but it was very overpriced at $13. The croissant was extremely dry - I don’t know how else to describe it other than...

Santa Ana Brunch Club

Brunch restaurant

👍👍 This place is a real diamond in the rough, amongst mechanic shops and on a busy street. That said, I'm glad we trusted the reviews! Mothers Day Brunch here was nothing short of an amazing experience. Dom, the owner, really loves what he does, and his food reflects that. Mom had steak and eggs, siste...

Armani's Mediterranean Cafe

👍👍 Best Mediterranean food in the Antelope Valley!!! First time tried and were in love with the delicious bold flavors, juiciness, love and quality that goes into every plate!
