After eating here at The Stinking Rose I feel like a million bucks! Garlic is one of the top rated and natural antioxidants, anti inflammatory and much much more beneficial factors. Had the rib-eye steak oozing with garlic. So tasty. Also had the garlic ice cream which was surprisingly good. Not a fan of garlic? No problem as they do have dishes that are garlic free. They’ve also moved since I last came here. Love the new spot. I definitely recommend trying this restaurant. If one would like to eat healthy and live longer, it won’t be because you’ve been bitten by a vampire, nope not here

We sat outside with a sunset view and an amazing view, European style. We ordered the bruschetta which was quite good, but the main course was the hero. We ordered the gnocchi and the Margherita pizza. The gnocchi was in marinara sauce which isn’t my first choice but it tasted great. My favorite though was the pizza. Call me crazy, but this was the BEST MARGHERITA PIZZA I’ve ever tried. So yummy! We had the garlic ice cream for dessert which sounds not so appetizing but it grew on me. Overall, I loved the food and ambience, 100% recommend it!

We absolutely loved this place! The food was amazing! The service from the bartender, Ford was perfect! He was so nice and knowledgeable. We had the Fennel Sausage Pizza, Garlic Muscles, Brochette, and of course we had try the Garlic Ice Cream. At first the ice cream was very strange, but by the third bite I couldn’t get enough! Everything was so good!

Service was pretty good, nice wait staff but I feel like they can rush you along.

Low key thought we’d never have a chance to try the Stinking Rose but they reopened a block away last year. We were expecting more of a garlic knockout when we walked in. While we did like the decor we thought the restaurant should smell way more garlicky. We opted for indoor seating. Outdoor seatings are available if you want to deal with pedestrians walking by.

The restaurant decor and ambience is cool. The service seems so rush and under staffed that is feels like they are trying to get you in and out. The garlic appetizer is missing something and was just ok. As for the other dishes we got the steak and bolognese were good. The calzone could of used a side of sauce to dip. Overall for the price point of this place just seemed average and not really worth it.

Had the bruschetta, fresh fettuccine with Fresh Tomato Marinara Sauce and crème brûlée cheese cake. My husband ordered the fettuccine seafood platter.

Great food though not mind-blowing. The garlic ice cream was yummy but inconsistent on garlicness – some bites were much more intense than others. Generally I expected a stronger garlic theme from the dishes, but we managed to go through it all without much of it.

Stinking Rose is so stinking cute! I loved the outside tables, felt like I was in Italy. Sadly the Stinking Rose in Beverly Hills closed so I was happy to come here as I always loved their food. Lots of cute details in the restaurant- pretty colorful tables, red awning, rustic feel and of course food was delicious! I had the shrimp fettuccine and a rose´ to pair, it did not disappoint!

The atmosphere is kitschy and fun, with an old-school Italian restaurant vibe. The food was good. I recommend the garlic roasted in oil with bread. 40 clove garlic chicken and the Stinking Rose garlic salad. The Alfredo was a little too salty but overall, good, solid home style Italian. Sit outside at their cafe tables if you can, great for a date night or a catch-up with a friend (and people watching).
