Grow up Eclectic. – Eclectic seems to want to be fine dining, but can't shed some old habits that make it kind of tacky. When you walk in, there's a diner-style "Please wait to be seated" sign. Put a hostess stand in. People know how to eat out and they'll stop there, even if you have no one at the stand. The menu is diverse, but it seems like a product of indecision rather than culling together different cuisines. Goat cheese apetizer was tasty, though the greens it was topped with were limp. Tortellini carciofi was overcoo... read more

Business response:

We took into account, very seriously, all of your comments because it is the first average review that we have had in a long time. The "Please wait to be seated sign" has been an Eclectic classic, but we agree...tacky... so we removed it. Our collection of food on our menu was put together very carefully considering all types of people and what THEY like to eat. The definition of "Eclectic" is; composed of elements drawn from various sources or to gather. Eclectic is designed to reach out to a wide range of people. We do apo... read more

Simply Fabulous – I haven't been this pleased with a restaurant in quite a while! The atmosphere was my favorite... I almost didn't notice how boring my date was because I was so captivated by all the artwork on the walls. Usually going to restaurants is more of a hassle than fun because I'm such a picky eater. This place actually had more than a few things on the menu I would gladly try out!!! The service was great ... quick and friendly! Infact our waiter was more entertaining than my date. Of course he did get cool points... read more

Pleasing to all of the Senses – What a great way to complete an evening in the emerging NOHO art district! The service was friendly and accommodating. The food was beautifully plated and colors and textures blended to create attractive offerings. The menu offered a wide variety of options, and server was knowledgable in wine pairings to best compliment our food selections. Feel free to wander the restaurant as it showcases the work of emerging local artists. Definitely try the stuffed mushroom appetizer, the pizzas are fanta... read more

Great Variety of Foods!!! – I brought a few people from my family and a couple friends in for dinner and I am always afraid to go out with this group of people because they are such picky eaters. At our table we had two vegetarians and two very "Fat Free" conscious people. Everyone was able to order with ease and was very pleased with how great the food tasted and how helpful the servers were to make sure they got just what they wanted. The place itself is unique and beautifully designed and the whole environment is chill bu... read more

Great steak and wine! – We are so happy to find this place in the neighborhood! We tried the wine flights and there were different and delicious. It would be nice if they added some more wine choices to their offering, but at least what they had was good. He had the filet and said it was one of the best that he has ever had, incredibly tender and cooked to perfection! The steak salad is delicous...the tuna...and I am continually trying new things each time. So far, never a disappointment! The service can be a bit on the slow... read more

Awesome Atmosphere, Fantastic Food – All I have to say is the stuffed mushrooms are mouth-watering delicious!! Eclectic has such a different appeal to it than most places. When you walk in you don't feel like your just walking into a restaurant. The design and deco of the place keeps you continuously looking around. They have fabulous artwork and photography covering the walls and with the polished service and great food, dining at Eclectic will be an experience that will keep you coming back for more!! They also are always ... read more

Best Appetizers, I have ever had. Battered Calamari, Dim Sum – Stepping from one section of the Valley to the next. This restaurant was a straight top ten. Five minutes from Universal. My dinner of Chicken pasta and a margarita pizza, was only surpassed by the Waiter's and Owner's knowledge and expertise. Killer heart-shaped ice cream desserts, I will try the rest on the next visit. I have lived in LA for over 20 years and this is one of the top three restaurants.

my favorite neighborhood restaurant! – My husband and I frequent this restaurant at least once a month. We love the owner, love the food (especially the Chicken Madera and the Warm Steak Salad) and love the waiters. The environment is artistic and comfortable at the same time. It is very open and pleasant. By the way, I hear the pizzas are very good, I've just never had one. Would love to see them get some more wines. But I will keep coming either way!

Our "go-to" local place for good comfort food & vibe – My wife and I have been going here for well over 10 years. After a few visits it's easy to feel like you're part of Brian's family! Great pizza and pasta and salads too (Salmon or Steak Nicoise!) - but whenever I need to feel homey I order the rosemary chicken or the chicken madeira and a glass of wine, then I'm there! Meat and fish are good too but I rarely order them here. Guess I save that for elsewhere. My complaints, really more my recommendations, are that the menu... read more
