What People Are Saying About Harper's

The Editor

Randi Schmelzer

Citysearch

In Short – This former after-work detour in the ABC Entertainment has relocated and reinvented itself as a relaxing trattoria amid Century City Mall's shopping hustle. Dimly lit with tabletop candles, subtle sconces and natural light, this pre-movie date destination features intimate dark wood tables set with white linens. It's latte-colored walls are lined with framed Broadway playbills. House specialties include tuna-stuffed roasted peppers, sauteed black mussels, flat-crust pizzas and fusilli pasta with smoked salmon and cream.

Excellent Food, Decor and Service

by digdoug2001 at Citysearch

This is one of the best meals I have had in L.A. The pasta was just fantastic. My father had the white fish which was cooked to perfection. The wine was also chosen well by our waiter who did an impeccable job of serving us. We also tried the Panna Cotta, our first time trying this desert...we loved it! So tasty and not too sweet. Do yourself a favor and get over to Harper's for a fantastic experience!

GREAT SERVICE & FOOD

by meveryhungry at Citysearch

Really enjoy this restaurant. Great pastas, pizza and appetizers. Good service. Avoid seating in the inside booths on a hot day, your clothes literally stick to you. The booth cushions must be made of plastic. Makes it very uncomfortable especially if you are drinking red wine as well.

  • Pros: service, food, prices
  • Cons: too hot inside

Incredible Food and Service

by sicfix at Citysearch

Harper's is the first restaurant of many to inspire me to write a review. The service at Harper's was so good it was almost scary. The servers knew how to balance being attentive with letting us alone to enjoy our date just masterfully. It seemed as though whenever we needed something, a server would pop up at just the right time. Our appetizer came almost instantaneously, and we only waited about 15 minutes for our entrees. The food was on par with the service. I had literally the best piece of salmon I have EVER had in my life, and I have had a LOT of Salmon. HIGHLY recommended. My date agreed that it was simply amazing. As for the ambience, on a Friday night at 8:30 it was very nice, with a New York vibe, elegant yet relaxed and low key at the same time, and with GREAT lighting.

  • Pros: Service, Food, Nice vibe
  • Cons: Lemon sorbet

The Details on Harper's

Parking:

The mall's underground lot offers three hours of free parking.

Where to Sit:

For parties of four, the best tables are the spacious booths along the wall in back. On cool evenings, ask to be seated on the wrap-around patio.

What to Drink:

The wine selection is good--especially the reds--but there isn't much offered for under $30. Several half-bottles are available, or pay the $18 corkage fee and bring your own.
