Chef Kursten stepped away from his busy kitchen to come greet our table, which was a nice touch. Carson our waiter was super funny and engaging in our conversation. Can’t wait to come back.

At last! Upscale dining returns to Burbank. I was so excited to try Palma and it surpassed my expectations. It's a beautiful, classy dining room with a lovely patio dining option. Our waitress, Marie, was amazing. She was able to explain the dining concept and her recommendations were spot on. She was so warm and friendly we immediately felt at home. We had the tonnorelli with lobster and the sizzling garlic ahrimp and both were delicious. Their gelati comes directly from Italy and rounded out the meal perfectly. Can't wait to return.

We were visiting Los Angeles from Washington DC. I heard wonderful things and saw great reviews about Providence. Wonderful experience at Providence. We sat at the chef’s table. The staff was excellent and professional. They answered all questions and requests. Chef Micheal Cimarusti was very gracious and welcoming. His food was delicious and the presentation of the food was beautiful and elegant. Definitely would dine again at Providence. It was an amazing experience and wonderful night.
