Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Whittier

4.95 out of 5. Let me explain… we had an amazing window table, view was spectacular. The only nuance was that we were too close to the kitchen doors, so a bit noisy. However, the experience quickly faded away the noise. The settings were top notch, the ambiance couldn’t be better, very classy and distinguished. The food was out of this world, we enjoyed the distinct and special touch of flavors infused by the chef creations. The wine and cocktails selection was adequate and expansive. I ordered the ribeye steak and I couldn’t be more pleased with my selection. Also, as my 1st course I enjoyed the Caledonian Prawns . Amazing! Definitely I will repeat the experience and recommend the restaurant to my friends and colleagues.

Such a nice brunch! We were seated out by the fireplace and it was perfect. Food was great, service was great, ambiance - so festive! Highlight of the season.

Too often in LA restaurants are priced like they are a once or twice-a-year super high-end blowout when they're just a nice or sort-of interesting dining experience. Redbird is where we go when we want to treat ourselves to a truly exquisite evening. Their wine list is incredible, but we often get distracted by the beautiful cocktails. Menu is small and crafted at a super high level by chef Neal Fraser. Beautiful location, though it can be chilly on winter nights. We had to ask to move to a table closer to the heat lamps. Service is impeccable but not too much. We're always wowed and leave feeling special and deeply satisfied. Simply put, Redbird is our favorite fine restaurant in Los Angeles. Happy hour is a great deal here if you want to start small and check the vibe.

Last evening was my first visit to Girl & the Goat. I could not have asked for a better first impression/tasting of any restaurant in Los Angeles. From the wait-staff to the chef of the evening, we were treated as VIPs. The drinks were described to a T, and were served immediately. Note: the Goat Fashioned was probably the best, smoothest, New Fashioned I’ve ever had. We ordered seven items from the menu, which were brought to us in the order of our servers discretion - each one was outstanding. My guests and I took a vote of our top two favorites, and it was a complete mix – everything was delicious. We will definitely be back.

We really enjoy Magnolia House. We have two Vegans in the family and although Magnolia House doesn't have extensive vegetarian or Vegan options, they were delighted with the dish they had - avocado toast. The Huevos Rancheros are some of the best around. However, the highlight of this restaurant is the wait staff and hostess. Incredibly attentive, making sure you are always well taken care of. The service alone is 5 star.
