    Had a great time. The waitress was more than patient with friends and I. One of them had diet restrictions and she patiently gave us time to figure out how the menu would work for her. The seating and lights where stunning and food was really good. To our surprise, we came on a day they did karaoke and had a lot of fun before heading out. We stayed much longer than we thought we would. Love the free parking. Cute little quaint area. Would definitely go back for the try all menu.

    My husband and I are regulars at Ospi’s sister property Jame in El Segundo. For a change, we thought we would try Ospi. We were both blown away not just by the quality of the food, but by the hospitality we received from the moment we entered the restaurant. Every staff member we encountered from the hostess, to the food runner, to the bartender, to the manager who came to check on how our evening was going, greeted us with a warm welcome and an upbeat attitude.  We received the kind of genuine service that is not often seen in restaurants anymore.
