Delmonico's Lobster House

Food below average. Service was awful. Will not be returning. This restaurant is not what it used to be. No justification for the prices when you consider the below average quality of the food.

What a disappointment! Terrible Sunday Brunch! Tasteless, boring, unimaginative "food". Prime rib was cold. Only thing worth eating was fruit and shrimp & how many of those can one have? Very poor service! Overall experience was Extremely BAD!! Stay away & let those, apparently like this poor quality have it. Would have been much better at Dennys or IHOP. Way overpriced for value received. Could have had much better for $35 per person. Never again!

My wife is a good cook. But every time we are in the mood for real feast we are going to Delmonico’s Lobster House in Encino. It is not very close to us – we are living in Marina Del Rey – but it is definitely worth the drive. The food is consistently fantastic, and for that reason we are patronizing that particular place for a number of years. They have the freshest seafood you can find in LA for very reasonable price. Oysters, crab legs, tuna, scallops – not once it was compromised on quality. Also the stuffed lobster is a must over there. And do not forget to get lobster bisque soup. And another hint for real gourmand: try escargot snails, it’s the best one I ever had including France. Add the great service on the top of what had been said already. If you are hesitating what to start with, just ask their Chef Tony for advice and follow it to full enjoyment. The result is that we keep going over there again, and again, and again …



Start your experience with that place from Sunday brunch. It’s a KNOCKOUT!



P.S. Very important – leave some space for DESSERT.
