We had a lovely lunch and our server was very attentive without being overbearing! She saw to our every need and took very good care of us! She made sure we were able to have our meal and make it to our show on time.

This was our second visit before another show in Hollywood. Did not disappoint! The food is incredible. This time we tried James kale salad, Cacio e pepe spaghetti and the spicy vodka rigatoni again. Scrumptious! I highly recommend this restaurant.

We were late of our reservation. We called to let them know. They graciously seated us with the next seating. The receptionist and all servers were warm and friendly. Our server recommended a lovely wine that I loved based on some wines I’ve liked in the past. He obviously has a good knowledge of not only the wines on their menu but other popular wines. Overall it was such a great experience. Highly recommend

I dined at noon at NOE before my Opera perfomance which I usually do. The place is quiet which I like, the food is good and super reasonably priced, although a bit higher than several months ago. The service is always consistently excellent, responsive and caring! I had the Papardelle with scallops and it was delicious. They also always have my favorite Pinot Noir by Meiomi! I was a bit disappointed, however because LA Opera advertised a special Magic Flute cocktail for eating here and it was not available for lunch, but only dinner! Overall, I reommend this venue as I often come here and if I want to work, I can eat and do both!

What a great find! We tool advantage of the "Pre-Theater Dining and Parking" and it is a wonderful deal. The food was delicious and plenty of it. We were expecting small side servings but were surprised with the full and delicious serving. Our sever Hayley was so friendly, informative and very knowledgeable. We will definitely be going back to this place. Please check it out. You will not be disappointed.
