Lunch With My Girlfriends

I don't frequent this restaurant much, but every time I decide to go there, it's always a great experience. My girlfriends and I decided to go to this restaurant today for a friend's birthday. To my suprise there was a celebrity by the name of "Snoop Dogg" there today who was also was there i assume to enjoy the excellent food.
During our lunch the service was immaculate. From the excellent food, to the friendly and curtious staff. The food was perfectly salted and i couldnt have asked for a better lunch.
If good food with a nice environment is something you desire i strongly recommend going to this Restraunt. You will not be disappointed.
- Pros: Good Food & Atmosphere, Friendly Staff, Diverse Clientele
- Cons: Only one location, i would love for them to expand
50th Birthday Party

I attended my friends 50 th birthday party last Saturday at Da Vinci's and it was a blast. The guest of honor was flown down by helicopter as all of us were looking on from the patio. We ate gourmet cheese and drank amazing wines and then sat down for one of the best dinners I have had in a long time. I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Gotti and Wendy Parker that evening and they were so warm and very attentive the whole evening.
The only con was watching the banquet assistant, Danielle communicate with the staff, the way she did. Also when I was going to the bathroom I heard her screaming at the staff and the kitchen. She never had a smile on her face , and I couldn't understand why Ms. Parker would have a assistant like her. So un perfessional but everything else was simply devine.
- Pros: Food, View, Wine
- Cons: Banquet Assistant Danielle
Great Place for Meetings and Events

I had the pleasure of planning my companies lunch meeting with Ms. Parker and my company was so impressed, we are planning our Holiday Party at Da Vinci's as we speak.
The service, the food and the Leonardo Room was perfect for our group of 20, and Ms. Parker worked with our budget and was hands on the entire event. I highly recommend Da Vinci's , Ms. Parker and Chef Gotti to all of my family and friends.
Look forward to the Holiday Party.
- Pros: Food & Service
- Cons: Can't think of anything

Thank you !

From the looks of the negative feedback that has been given to Ms. Parker, I am not sure if w are talking about the same woman here.
I have had the pleasure to work with her seven times since she graced us with her presence a couple months ago.
I think the comments made were not fair and not accurate.
She will continue ( for me ) being a delightful, helpful and lovely lady. My pharmaceutical company will continue booking and booking at Da VInci, with Ms. Parker.

Tread Carefully

Not a good experience for banquets. Their banquet coordinator was not very professional and frankly, seemed in over her head. This might be a nice restaurant to eat at (food was excellent), but do not entertain your clients there, and steer clear of large groups. Ms. Parker was not good at following up on details and had many elements of the dinner I recently hosted there incorrect. When I approached her with my concerns, she was very condescending. One of my colleagues had a similar experience back in March, but I checked Citysearch and all of the feedback seemed to be very positive. Nevertheless, I will inform corporate this is not the place we should be hosting our pharmaceutical dinners in the future. It wasn't that it was glaringly bad. It just wasn't what we had discussed, nor what I was anticipating. I also do not appreciate being "dismissed" by the event planner. It was as if she did not value my business...maybe we were small potatoes to her, but word gets around quickly in my industry. It is a shame, as my area is the South Bay, and it is hard to come across unique restaurants that make an indelible impression. I was really hoping this would have worked out, but the banquet coordinator just had a terrible attitude (maybe she was having a bad day?), and I don't feel I got the service I was paying for. It was more in line with Olive Garden on that end. Real shame.
- Pros: Pretty Decor
- Cons: Bad for Large Groups

I had the pleasure of joining my group in Long Beach for a three day conference. Da Vinci hosted our group for three days and we could have not been more pleased. The food,the ambiance and the service was top notch. Dave Neary & Wendy Parker were so accommodating with all of our needs. We will be returning.

There is nothing like Davinci in Long Beach!
by HahnSolo55

I used to go to Downtown Long Beach if I wanted fine dining in the area, but now that I've been to Davinci I have no intention of going back to Pine Ave.
Davinci's food is fantastic. It's a completely original cuisine too. Think about what you normally get when you go out for Italian food and throw that concept out the window. Plus the parking is free!!!! Yes, I know this is Southern California, but the parking is spacious and free and they also have valet, not that it's needed.
I really recommend Davinci as a place to take a date or for a dinner with the family. It's modestly priced and the service is top notch.
- Pros: Amazing Food & Decor, Original Cuisine and Ambiance
- Cons: Didn't know it was there!
Cant get a return call!

Look, Im a big fan of supporting the local restaurants and keeping the revenue in my neighborhood so to speak. I have called this place four times now to book a party of about 30 of our closest family and friends to celebrate and honor my parents for their fiftieth wedding anniversary. I have yet to get a single phone call back. That is fine, as I will just take my business elsewhere.
- Pros: Example: best croissants in town
- Cons: What are the drawbacks?
Far exceeded any expectations!

Last night I had my 30th birthday party catered and executed by Wendy Parker at Da Vinci and was thrilled with all aspects of the party. The food was delicious and my guests were all completely impressed and happy. Wendy's assistance made this party fun, easy and hassle-free. She had great ideas when it came to picking a vegan option menu and essentially made this party the best it could have been. Wendy was there to answer any questions I might have had during the planning process. She was professional, upbeat and incredibly personable. She even greeted the guests as they arrived to the party with a glass of champagne. I will definitely work with her and Da Vinci again and recommend her to anyone planning an event (large or small).
Thank you to all at Da Vinci and especially Wendy Parker for making my party feel effortless and fun!
- Pros: The service and food were amazing!
