Alys' - LA VETA

This place is awesome! I am 81. Took my wife here for her birthday It was the best dinning experience we ever have had. Everything was cooked to perfection, many choices, lots of high quality wines,just can't put all into words We will be going back as soon as we can. The best !!!!

Excellent customer service..owner went out of her way to serve us. Food was excellent

Fine dining in a warm, bright space that reflects the uniqueness of Alys, who still does all the baking and preps things like the delicious salad dressing. Her wine collection is varied and well priced. We savored a 2018 Ramey Pinot Noir worried it was too old but she promised she'd drink it if we did not like it. (She did not get a drop. The wine list is laminated but the nightly menu is all verbal so listen carefully. We had rack of lamb and salmon, both delish. Save room for dessert!

Love all about this place. The food is amazing. The staff is the most professional I have ever been served by. The food is amazing.

Two for Service and four for food. I am a semi regular customer eating at Alys' several times per year. The food is up scale with menu items that you will not find in chain restaurants. Aly is very creative with the menu. The last few times I dined there my experience was less than satisfactory. The meat was a little tough, but the glazing was amazing. The food overall including the sides and desert was good but the service was unsatisfactory. We had reservations and requested a certain dish in advance but when we arrived we were told the dish was not available. We were asked to choose a different item. It was extremely hot in the restaurant. We were given water when we arrived and asked for more throughout the meal, but never received the water even after asking several times. Fortunately, we had some water in our car we had after we left. They were busy, but very slow at responding so we ended up spending much more time in the restaurant than we should have 2 hours. When we asked for the check, the servers checked out other tables that arrived after us. I gave a 15% tip, which is lower than what I usual give because of the service but is still generous considering the service. The servers have a tendency to hover over you while you choose your tip which makes you feel a bit uncomfortable. We had a bill of about $200 because we had a nice bottle of wine, so 15% was still a nice tip. I didn't get a thank you when I paid, which seems a little rude and entitled. I am only writing this review because the past few times I have been in there I've had a similar experience with the service. If you spend $200 plus tip on a meal, I expect better. I'm sure if/when I will go back.
