"As always the food was memorable.... However Cubes new "back room"
Is just as memorable but not in a good way.

Space is limited here and a packed back room doesn't help matters .

Call early for reservations or expect to be cramped and cozy with those you may not wish to be."

"Would I recommend Cube? Yes I have and nobody has been disappointed. Their Cheesemongers choice flight is consistently delicious with lovely presentation. The seasonal dishes are terrific and the very reasonable corkage allows you to bring your own bottle."

"The staff at Cube is always helpful in choosing wine and cheeses, so nice and friendly. They make us feel welcome like a home a way from home. Tried the Fresh Tagliatelle, very very good. Also, just had returned from a trip to Lake Como, Italy in which I felt Cube gave me a comparable tast of Italy!"

"Service was top notch! Very helpful with menu items and suggestions. I know a place has fresh produce when they serve a salad with fresh peas. It is so cool inside, the decor, the lighting. It had been a while since I'd been there and I think they renovated the inside. It's so put together and the lighting creates a wonderful mood. I loved it so much that I if I ever need a place for a private event, I would look into renting it out. (Max capacity 78 ppl)"

"This is my 6th time visiting. I've never been for dinner before, only for lunch. The service was not great. he didn't seem to care about us. Forgot our drinks, and didn't check on us at all. My mother's meal wasn't good, and she never even was able to complain until we were completely finished. They were busy, and seemed overwhelmed. I've referred people here, and I've taken lots of people here. Doubt I will go back for dinner. The lunch crew is much nicer, and the restaurant is much more calm."

"Cube never disappoints. The food is always soooo delicious and the service is lovely. It can get a little loud in the evening, but largely that's because everyone is exclaiming over the yumminess. Simple menu where everything is super fresh and perfectly prepared. Watch out for the enormous fried chicken portion."

"We've been to Cube quite a few times and the food is great, including a nice cheese/meat selection. This visit was notable for poor service, which leaves a bad taste no matter how good the food is. Wait staff was scarce, our waiter switched from one person to another mid-meal without announcement and for unclear reasons, table wasn't cleared well, plus other annoying things."

"I love the quality of the food, it was excellent. Starting off with a cheese plate was a great idea. It was very high quality cheese and meats. We then ordered the Truffle pizza and some side dishes and had a great night out. The polenta dish was amazing, as was the kale! So yummy, I also love that the menu changes weekly so that each time you go you can try something new."

"I've been going to Cube for many years now, and watched it "grow up" in the process. While I still shed a tear for its early times, before its alcohol license and when it was much easier to get a table as a walk-in than it is now, it has bloomed well into its maturity. The food is extremely good, and the staff is knowledgeable. It has one of the best cheese menus in town, and the staff is very knowledgeable about it. It is a bit noisy, and the space really is a bit at odds with the ambition and quality of the restaurant as a whole, but this is what makes it a "neighborhood gem.""

"Creative menu with everything from fried baby artichokes to braised octopus for starters. Service was attentive but then slowed as it got busier. We arrived at 12:15 for lunch, but they had run out of aranciata after one person at our table ordered it. Makes me wonder if they only make about 5 glasses for the day.

Otherwise, a delicious meal was enjoyed by all."

"My boyfriend and I went there on Valentines Day and both of us had our best dining experience in LA so far. The vibe is great and we enjoyed a nicely served cheese platter including the most delicious air-dried ham ever. But that wasn't even the best part! For our main we ordered one appetizer and one semi pasti - the braised baby octopus and scallops with a bacon vinaigrette. The scallop took us to heaven!

Ever since then, we have been talking about this place. Telling all our friends to go there. It is amazing! We can't wait to bring our loved ones to our new favorite place."
