Sherman Oaks Restaurant Tips by su_jen

Barone's: Try their Square Pizzas!

Italian hospitality and setting? Our server is so absend-minded though, she kept forgetting the drink, then the bread, etc. Had to keep reminding her!

Favorite Dish: I had the Lobster Diablo :D It was soooo goood! The best I've ever had - even though the sauce was a little runny, it still tasted good. Should kick it up another notch on the spice hehe Both my friends, on the other hand weren't so happy with the service, we were there on Labor Day, so they probably had a different chef... their complaint the food was bland, but the square pizza was sure good Oh, I love their chicken and barley soup Super duper yummy

Jinky's: Mouthwatering Omelettes

Bumped into this restaurant - thought of something different than IHOP would be a nice change. Huge crowd lining up outside, not a big place, OK place. The hostess was terrible, didn't look like she was interested in her work, but our waitress was pretty good, food came out pretty fast.

Favorite Dish: Had the customized omelettes, yummy! Gotta love the potatoes.
