Wonderful food and service, such a lovely and calm place to eat in Downtown LA. It's very peaceful eating outside. Inside is quite loud, but didn't impact us since we got a table outside. Great drinks, interesting menu, and very nice people working there!

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!

Great Sunday lunch, three couples, we each ordered something different and all of it was delicious. Portions were good, burgers were large, guacamole was yummy. Herbert was our server, he was amazing and kept the drinks flowing! We had reservations, but had to wait, not sure how long the wait would have been without the reservation! Other than that, and a limited menu, it was a delicious lunch.

    Loved our experience! My husband is Brazilian and it was nice to see so many familiar dishes. I think it may have been the best pão de queijo I have ever had. Our server Carol was awesome and took great care of us! We will visit again next time we are in LA!
