    The regular Friday night host/manager remains the best asset to NYAJ Westwood. He is pleasant, professional, and diligent. His attitude seems to be reflected in the waitstaff as well. Continues to be a very positive experience.

    They seated us immediately. The server arrived quickly to take our drink orders. The food was -- as always -- cooked perfectly and very good.

    The food was very good. However our waitress Sarah was outstanding. .We were a group of 5 friends getting together. She was so helpful and patient. She was very attentive without being intrusive. We never felt rushed. It was a great experience.

    The Waldorf salad is wonderful, my go to dish. But oh how magnificent it would be with unchopped pecans. And crême brûlée afterward. Please?

    The GF pasta w/shrimp was terrible. It was just basically boiled gf pasta with 5 shrimp. The cocktails were weak. 1 of us had then turkey club w avocado. The avocado was thinner than a slice of cheese. And there was no mayo on the bread.
