Best Casual Restaurants in Whittier

My family & I went to Black Angus in Whittier for the Traditional Thanksgiving Feast… It did NOT disappoint! First of all was the excellent service & attention from our Server, Jessica! She was an absolute delight from start to finish. Is a home cooked Thanksgiving feast better??? Debatable for sure, but the Black Angus Feast was absolutely delightful & fresh & complete in every way — From appetizing soup or salad to the perfect ending of delicious pumpkin pie with the perfect dollop of whipped cream. I think we have a new family tradition!

I love fogo de chao. The lamb came out a little more gamey than i remembered but it was still good. the service was great but servers with the meat would miss us sometimes (i was at a large table where they visited one end of the table and my husband and i were at the other end). They would check in with the people at the front of the table but then either we would miss them as we didn't realize they approached our table, or we would be looking at them to acknowledge us and they would just walk away lol. It WAS Thanksgiving and we still ate to our hearts content. My picky kids were happy as well. It seemed they were a little slow in bringing out the pao de queijo but again, it was a holiday and i'm sure they were doing everything they could to bring it over to us. We eventually received it for the whole table and brought more when we asked. Overall the experience was great. Despite how crowded it was, the noise level was fine. The sweet potato casserole was YUM but wasn't a fan of the stuffing.. it tasted too much like grainy box mix that wasn't mixed in well enough. IDK what the soup was but it was yuuuummmm.

When my family from Arizona visit, this is their requested restaurant. It’s amazing in every way. The hand made pasta, fresh ingredients and attention to every detail is amazing. This time our table had lasagna, salmon risotto, spaghetti with delicious meatballs, two salads, minestrone, focaccia.

Azabu is our go to for date night. The service is always great and the food is amazing. Highly recommend the Peruvian scallops, shishito peppers, carpaccio yellowtail and grilled octopus. The drinks are consistent and delicious, we will continue to visit and wouldn’t mind eating here weekly.

The food and service was really good. I enjoyed this place very much!!! I’ll definitely be back.
