Overall Rating 2.0 out of 5 (Fair)
"The penne with bay scallops were overcooked; the eggplant appetizer has no eggplant taste; the dessert was fine, and the bread was the usual wonderful. This evening, I find it to be very noise though there were no particular table or crowd that stood out as the contributors. The food is not as good as I remembered it to be. Waitstaff is excellent as usual."

Review 5 for Dominick's Restaurant

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"We enjoyed our experience overall. Everything was good- food, service, ambience etc. One problem- their back patio, while very nice, allows people to smoke. Apparently this is because it's considered to be "open air" when in reality 99% of it is covered, except for a small opening to accommodate a large tree. They moved us away from the smoking hipsters, but allowing smoking at a restaurant is a policy that should be reconsidered."

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"I had not been to Dominick's in quite a while. I was happy to return and wondered why I stayed away so long. Very cozy and festive on a chilly pre-holiday night. My friend and I both enjoyed the Spaghetti and Meatballs. May be the best I have had. Also loved the warm apple tart with rosemary ice cream - so unique and amazing. Service was great and attentive. A pleasant evening over all. Only adverse comment I would have is the hostess was unwelcoming and a little harsh. I expect this in some LA locations, but not Dominick's."

"This was our first visit to Domenick's but definitely not our last! Our reservations were for 6:pm and we got there 15 mins early only to be told that by the valet that they open at 6:pm. We drove around a couple of blocks and returned to find a line of freezing people out front...seriously 6 means 6!!. We sat inside but watched a large party file thru to the patio area. The bar quickly filled and was SRO by 6:30. The wait staff was a little overwhelmed but more than acceptable. We had the grilled artichoke (yummy), the mozzarella, tomoto and greens (good), and the NY Steak (good) and the Pork Chop with Sweet Potato Gratin (FANTASTIC!!!!!) Also of note...the bread was served to you in it's own little wrapper/bag."

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"We celebrated one of our friends birthdays here recently and were somewhat disappointed with the service. There was only one waitress that seemed to be genuinely helpful and nice however she was only there to open our bottle of wine. Our actual server seemed more annoyed with us than anything. Maybe it was just a long day.
Anyhow, the prices are seem low, but then again the portion seemed a little small.
The item we enjoyed the most were the grilled artichokes. Some pre theater or pre party artichoke and wine would be perfect for this location."
