    It is always delightful lunching at Mariposa with Frank’s impeccable, unpretentious and attentive service! You can rely on light and fluffy popovers and a demitasse of scratch chicken broth. We’ve been dining here for over 40 years and always look forward to the next time!

    We chose the restaurant at the Getty Center for its beautiful location and dining room. It was s birthday celebration and we couldn't have had a better time. Wonderful waiter, a lovely view, so quiet we couldn't even hear the people at the next table, and the food was great. We ordered a birthday dessert and it came beautifully decorated. Drinks too were special--a Bellini, a Rose and a Sangria, all generous pours.
