Every life has one of those defining moments--standing at the crossroads, wondering which way to turn. But if you're at Camden and Brighton, just step onto the corner patio for pizza and a cold one, under the shade of the rustling banana trees. Villa Blanca is now taking reservations for its Tuesday debut. URBAN DADDY view article

Villa Blanca is amazing, everytime my wife and I visit we are always given the best service and amazing food. Ken and Lisa Todd, the owners are amazing, always there and always walking and talking with customers. This is my idea of what a business is all about. Keep up the great work.

This is a great restaurant during the day on Saturdays and Sundays when they offer a very reasonable "brunch" menu. There are many dishes available for $10.00 and Sangrias and Mimosas for $5.00.A wonderful place to people watch.

Interesting decor and good food at reasonable prices.

Romantic setting with a great Happy Hour menu, both in food and drinks. Makes for a lovely evening. The service is a plus. Very accommodating and fast.

Great, healthy food and the best-looking staff in LA!

I have been to this restaurant several times before and have always enjoyed the food, service and ambiance. Enjoy the experience.

love this place! it's a reasonably affordable gem in the middle of ritzy beverly hills. i found out about this place through groupon, and am so glad i did. we went for brunch, and i was impressed by the ambiance/decor, the drinks, the food, and (surprisingly) the prices.

the interior is gorgeous... all white and very european. waiters were friendly and attentive (and yes, metrosexual, but this is beverly hills). didn't feel stuck-up at all.

we splurged a little bit because we had the groupon discount, but they had a great brunch menu where at regular price, drinks (sangrias and mimosas) were only $5 and multiple entrees/salads were only $10! if those specials are anything like the rest of their food, this is my go-to brunch place from now on. we had the lobster crisps (delish... licked up every bite), calamari (spicy... a nice twist and not too chewy), kobe burger (moist, juicy, perfect), and tiger prawn pasta (a little oily but really tasty throughout with huge prawns). top it off with 2 drinks each, and you have an amazing brunch for $40 (worth $80, with groupon). i can't wait to go back!

This place is so pure and classy with the all white European decor illuminated by candlelight. It's smaller than it looks, but also has ample outdoor seating.

We started off with a bottle of La Braccesca Vino Nobile ($60). It was a Tuscany red wine. I'm not a wine-o or anything, so had no idea what I was drinking, but the waitress recommended that bottle and it had a mildy sweet fruity undertone and went well with our seafood dishes. We toasted to my new job and began our celebratory feast!

I had the special of the day: Chilean Sea Bass with truffle oil mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus ($36). Amazing!!! I have never tasted anything so buttery, flavorful and flakey. The fish melts in your mouth and had a nice crispy top, which I loved. The truffle oil mashed potatoes were so buttery and savory. Delicious! And I love asparagus so I devoured my greens! Highly recommend this dish! 5/5

He ordered the Seafood Paella ($27). It was a risotto dish with seafood stock that tasted very flavorful and aromatic with the herbs. They were very generous with the seafood; heapfuls of calamari, clams, mussels, swirly whirly shrimps, and a huge crawfish on top. The shrimps were huge and seemed to have been tied in a knot because they were all tangled and curly. The dish was yum, but couldn't win the spotlight in comparison to my Chilean Sea Bass. 3.5/5

Sides were $6 and we got an extra plate of the grilled asparagus. Yum! Up next was dessert and we opted for the Molten Choco Cake ($10). It came out very hot and moist with chocolate lava on top and a scoop of toffee icecream. I prefer the lava in the middle and oozing out when you slice into it. Also, the chocolate cake flavor was ok. I've had better, but it was still good. The waitress recommended the English toffee pudding, but we decided against it. Looking back, perhaps we should've listened to her. Sorry, but molten choco cake gets 2/5.

They automatically included gratuity in our bill. So total with tax and tip came out to ~$180. Great spot to take a date on a special occasion unless you have money like that to splurge everyday. Casual elegance with amazing food and attentive staff. And it's right by Rodeo Dr so you can splurge more and go shopping as you walk off your full content bellies!
