Marvin

A lovely nook offering an oasis amongst the bustle of Beverly Blvd. Marvin greets its visitors with a smattering of unique wines to choose from and aroma's of food who's taste outperforms even the heavenly smells. The service was quick and attentive, with genuine insight into what dishes are most spectacular. We enjoyed the Burrata Toast and Spicy Vodka Rigatoni. The Burrata Toast was a simple, yet decadent must have. Sitting at the bar was an intimate way to enjoy this lovely restaurant. I will certainly return!

So, in a nutshell, it’s a cute little place on Beverly Blvd., the food (some items) were really good including the spicy vodka sauce pasta. However, the servers were so off putting in that they had attitude like they were really doing us a favor by serving us tonight. One even went so far as saying ‘it’s not our holiday!’ after a member of our party asked if he was ok because he looked stressed. All in all, there are better places in this city to spend your money and time.

Marvin is a fave of mine because the burgers are similar to Ferdi burgers (IYKYK) and definitely my favorite burger in LA. Hosted my birthday dinner here with a large party last night and the staff was extremely friendly, patient, and accommodating throughout the evening and even cut and served the birthday cake we brought with us. my friends who had never been before said they can't wait to go back for the food and atmosphere!

Its was a disappointment. The food was meh! It has been a good spot but not anymore! Too noisy and the dishes were either salty or just ordinary and nothing "French" about them. More like a cantina! To make matters worse the whole thing was an over-priced experience costing over 100 dollars each person with three glasses of house wine. I dont have anything to recommend except maybe for the multicolored lights on the ceiling. By the way, no coffee or tea served after the meal. They want to hustle customers out as quickly as possible!

One of the best dinner spots in LA. House wines are a must. Ricotta toast is amazing & so is their Cesar salad. Low key vibes- always good food and service.
