Super delicious! Been here a couple times over the years and consistently wows - fried chicken, brisket, grits, cornbread, desserts are all excellent. Staff are caring and quick.
I really Alta! I was greeted very cordially! Another host seated us and was vert attentive! Our waitress referred to us as "friends" and she took care of us as if we were her "friends"! I was only eating plant based foods so she made recommendations. The Vegan California Gumbo, I added tofu as my protein was so delicious. The black eyed peas fritters was flavorful but could stand a tad bit mire seasoning! The ambiance, the various types of people all enjoying this beautiful place. My Sands was in town and this was the perfect place to meet up! I recommend! Parking: Parking is atrocious! Valet is pretty much the best way.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! The food? Delicious! The drinks? Deliciously effective! The atmosphere? A total vibe! We’re visiting LA and stopped into Alta at a friend’s recommendation. We had the “old dog new trick,” which is their version of an old fashioned. It was initially a bit sweet but once the ice melted in slowly (large cube) it was delicious and mellowing. The deviled eggs were all the rave and so were the black eyed peas fritters. Warning for the spiced challenged… the fritters are a bit on the spicy side and are served with an amazing avacado whip sauce. I cannot tolerate spicy foods (I’m a spicy wimp really) but the flavor… amazing, with hints of corn meal infused, almost like mama’s dressing from the Deep South! The fried chicken was so good and flavorful yet crispy and the yams were fantastic as well. The chicken was a 6 piece order shared by the table and had 2 drums, 2 wings and 2 thighs. We took a slice of sweet potato cheesecake to go. I only wish I knew how amazing it was going to be before ordering it to go because it goes great with fresh coffee. The service was exceptional with very helpful host and wait staff! The music was a chill 90s R&B playlist. Parking is on the street but there is a valet option for $10 plus gratuity. Overall, so glad we came and will definitely return if time permits!
Came in for brunch, staff was great, food was good. Would visit again.
Amazing Black-owned restaurant in LA! Everything was delicious, but the oxtail is especially heavenly. Melt in your mouth, fall off the bone, to die for!
Fast service and great atmosphere. I enjoyed the visit.
