KQ Wed May 14 13:21:16 -0700 2008 11934 Kitchen Queen 1 3687228 Taylor's for a classic poorly lit steakhouse? Down to Bashan in Montrose for the best Glendale has to offer? Wed May 14 13:56:27 -0700 2008 3687084 145678 rogermexico 2 3687275 Thank you Roger - Been to Bashan several times. Wed May 14 14:07:15 -0700 2008 3687228 11934 Kitchen Queen 2 3687673 Taylor's has a classic look, and it is lit poorly. It also serves a poor steak, not up to snuff in these days of supermarket prime. Service at La Cabanita can fall down when there's a crowd, but otherwise I recommend their fine fare -- especially the soups and the chiles en nogada. You might also make a quick dash for dessert at Mignon Chocolate, which is a lot further down Verdugo but much closer than their shop in Tehran.

Thanks this might just be the place! What about La Cabanita or Divina Cucina??? Wed May 14 14:06:28 -0700 2008 3687249 11934 Kitchen Queen 3 3687803 KQ, I haven't tried either one but a quick search of past posts seemed to give both places a thumbs up. I'm going to have to give Divina Cucina a try, I have plenty of good Mexican places nearby but I'm always on the lookout for a good Italian restaurant. Wed May 14 16:34:15 -0700 2008 3687271 57958 Al Gore mand 4 3687815 Olive Branch is the ticket - Thanks for reminding me. Love the Fesanjan! Wed May 14 16:37:33 -0700 2008 3687803 11934 Kitchen Queen
