    The food and service were amazing. Overall a fun experience. However, the $120 up front was a lot for what was on the menu unless people want to drink heavily. The ambience was not exactly what was advertised online. The outside area needs a good clean and some repairs throughout the restaurant. We were expecting a peaceful Easter brunch and the music was for a younger crew.

    Located in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, Ristorante Per L’Ora delivers an unforgettable dining experience. Housed in a beautifully restored historic building, the ambiance is just as impressive as the food. Every dish is crafted with care—flavorful, elegant, and downright delicious. The service is equally exceptional, with staff who are warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. One of the most unique parts of the experience? You have to go through an old bank vault to get to the restroom. Trust me, it’s not just a bathroom break—it’s a whole vibe. Between the stunning setting, amazing food, and that unforgettable vault moment, Per L’Ora is a must-visit.
