Mejores restaurantes sudamericanos en Playa Vista

Went here for lunch - beautiful space, quick service even in the lunch rush, food for all dietary needs, and friendly waiters. Great downtown spot, I hope it lasts!

Maple Block is the best - really great Texas-style barbecue (i.e., beef, not pork -- Texas, Oklahoma and the Santa Maria region of CA concentrate on beef barbecue, whereas the rest of the south concentrates on port). They have nightly specials (try to rotisserie chicken) and theme nights - e.g. "Steak and Martini Night" which is what we went to on Friday. The staff is really friendly and the food is delicious!! Full bar, and very creative cocktails.

Best fried chicken and homemade biscuits. The Brussels sprouts were divine and was also impressed with the corn bread skillet. I am thinking of using them for catering a Super Bowl party! Fabulous!

We visited on Monday, December 9 for my son’s 21st birthday. I wanna say our server’s name was Isaac. I’m not sure I got that right but he was absolutely amazing. We sat at the table right next to the front entrance. He was the best server. We had a great time and we truly appreciated him making it a great night.

I had a great time at Irie Restaurant & Lounge, West Hollywood’s gem of a cannabis café! The service was attentive, and the food was delicious, with plenty of plant-based options to choose from. That said, it would be even better with a bit more effort in offering a plant-based protein—just a little tweak to make the menu even more inclusive. The cannabis offerings were absolutely superb—great quality and variety. The dual-server system (one for food and drink, and another for cannabis) makes regulatory sense, but it can feel a bit confusing for first-time visitors trying to navigate all their options. Streamlining that process could elevate the overall experience from great to phenomenal. That said, Irie’s vibe, service, and offerings have already won me over. I plan to make regular visits! Highly recommend this wonderful spot for a unique and enjoyable dining and cannabis experience.
