RVR Los Angeles Reviews
I don't think anything is groundbreaking here.
Cool ambience but the food doesn't warrant the cost.
Food was delicious! Everything we ordered was great.
Service was very very slow and each dish came out separately, then we would wait 5-10 minutes for the next dish, so it just took way too long to get our food, and the salad came at the very end after having all our other dishes. So it seems like they
Went here for our anniversary.
The husband reserved a table (due to back pain) & they sat us at the bar. The hostess was nonchalant when we told her and said they'd seat us at a table as soon one was open. 30 minutes waiting, my husband asked about the status and the host

Delicious food and friendly service! We really enjoyed every dish on the weekend brunch menu, from the mochi beignets, house pickles, Wagyu beef tongue, duck meatballs, to what tasted like homemade gyozas! The portions were bigger than expected so we
Simply the best !! These guys have got it down .
Every mouthful was delicious. The music is at the right level. The service is incredible. For me, it's the best place on the west side to eat .

Ugh I hate doing this but I was really disappointed in the whole experience. It felt like a place that is trying way too hard to be cool and not hard enough to be a good restaurant experience. Reservation was at 7 and we checked in right on time, an
regardless of your reservation time, add 30 to 45 mins.
they do not honor seating times.
Had reservations for 5:30pm.
I will say we got seated and ordered quite soon and the server appeared friendly and even provided recommendations -- however we did not get our drinks until 6:10 and our food at around 7:10. Our food also did not come out together and took forever
RVR is giving "low-key chic" in all the right ways.
I strolled in right at 5pm, half-expecting a wait (because Venice and hype), but nope--seated right away at the bar, which turned out to be prime people-watching real estate on Abbot Kinney. A+ for timing and a cool breeze. Started with the kanpachi

We waited 30 min for our table even though we had a reservation at 7:30. It then took 2 hours for the entire food order for 4 of us to be served. The waitress was nice but the rest of the experience left much to be desired.
Truly exceptional food for the educated palate.
So clearly the chef is a master at their craft but other parts of this restaurant made this a lackluster experience. You will either love this place or hate it. The clientele was mostly mid-20s creative professionals with a spattering of 30 something

Got brunch here on Sunday and we were able to snag seats at the bar without reservations. We ordered the mochi beignets, karage, eggplant salad, uni handroll and the cosmo cocktail. The mochi beignets are actually pretty light and not heavy or too
Amazing.
Shrimp gyoza, tuna handroll, uni handroll, tomato salad, duck meatballs, steak kebab, karaage, and (especially?) the charred broccolini were all perfect. We also loved the sesame/matcha sundae. I could've ordered just the entire vegetable menu a
Great izakaya place.
I had the chicken karaage, Japanese sweet potatoes, pork tonkatsu, tuna hand roll, tuna hand roll, and fried rice. The stand out items were the Japanese sweet potatoes and the pork tonkatsu. The sweet potatoes tasted like patatas bravas but with a Ja
SPECTACULAR food and experience! There is something magical
SPECTACULAR food and experience! There is something magical in the air at RVR. EXQUISITE Izakaya. Pan-fried gyoza with lacy edges serviced with soy sauce and yuzu kosho - HEAVENLY. Chicken thigh karaage drizzled with chile honey - YUMMMMMY! Incredibl
Connect with users posting reservations for RVR Los Angeles
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with RVR Los Angeles. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to RVR Los Angeles at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the RVR Los Angeles page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at RVR Los Angeles to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at RVR Los Angeles!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
