Read More On Citysearch Yum yum 8/6/2010 - Good Local Steakhouse but
Good food & drinks overall. Inattentive service & overpriced everything. Smells a little old too.
Read More On Citysearch vikkstar 1/26/2010 - Good Hip JointThe Dal Rea is a real nice time out to an upscale dinner. The joint has been around since the 1950?s. So even if it?s been remolded a bit, there is still a cool swank to the place. I had the French Onion soup ?C+?, a Cesar Salad made fresh at the table ? B?, a tasty Prime Rib Eye on the bone toped with crisp fried onions and green beans on the side and a baked potato ?B-?, a good Bread Puddi...

Read More On Citysearch hpotok117 10/8/2009 - One of the best east of the 710 Frw.Its the best "politico" place to go in the area, where deals get done. As a kid, I would pass Dal Rae regularly. Just a year ago, my friend invited me to dinner there and I've returned twice. Piano music adds to the ambiance. I haven't had a dish I didn't like and the cocktails are excellent.

(but who goes to a restaurant for the waiting room)
The atmosphere was a mix of older and middle aged couples/ families.
The curbside cesear salad was an eye opener since I have never experienced this before. It was pretty good. As...

Read More On Citysearch by pleasurepalate at Menuism 8/16/2008 - Good Food, Seems mostly a Senior Citizen placeWhen me and my friend and two ladies ate there, it was quite an experience - an area where our girls said "no way" to going there again. Then we had to pay valet for parking, because this is the only way to park here, or go far down the street, also watch out for door dings, they park the cars very close. Then this place has about a 8' by 8' waiting area - and can get pretty incomfortable if you...
Read More On Citysearch donisland 4/29/2008 - I read, I went and I wont go back
I went due to all the great reviews I read on here but was really disappointed. Food was ok but not great. Maybe it was the rude service from our waitress, having to pay for vallet parking "probably the only place in pico that has vallet LOL" or the snobby atmosphere "snobs who dine in PICO RIVERA???" that made the experiance unjoyable for me. Maybe it was a case of wrong place at the wrong time ...

Maybe a little crowded but expected for saturdays. Make reservations for early dinner around 5:30-6pm. Have had most of the appetizers, salads, entrees and desserts on the menu and all tasted good. But ,still miss Del Conte in Torrance for their Prime Rib , King Crab legs an...

Read More On Citysearch frankieman70 8/22/2007 - Best all around experience!This place was amazing! I would go back in a second. It looks like a steakhouse from the outside, but everything was delicious. The ceasar salad made table side was a treat that I haven't experienced for a long while. There aren't many restaurants these days that do table side, and you could taste the difference because of it. The service was impecable - This family owned restaurant is not one to...
Read More On Citysearch foodie1818 7/15/2007 - The ambience, cutomer service and food were all amazing!I really wanted a classy yet comfortable dining experience a couple nights ago and I found it all at the Dal Rae!

Read More On Citysearch hjs117 7/10/2007 - Best restaurant on the west coastI'm originally from New York and have been looking for a great restaurant for a long time. I went to the Dal Rae on a recommendation from a friend. My experience was great the wait was minimal maybe 10 minutes thats pretty good for a busy Friday night. The food was outstanding! For appetizers we had the Alaskan King crab that tasted like they just grabbed it out of the ocean, and shrimp sca...

Read More On Citysearch kojap 5/20/2007 - Great food so close to homeThis was my second time at this restaurant. The service was great, the crab cakes & the chilean sea bass were superb. The restaurant was packed and it's only Tuesday! The prices are a bit steep but the food is well worth the price. The service was good.
Read More On Citysearch japonesa 2/20/2007 - High class diningI have lived in Pico and the presence of Mercedes and Rolls Royce in this hidden, non-showy restaurant was always in question...I mean the restaurant is right next to a Jack In the Box so I really thought nothing of it....well the wait was a bit long but the food was great, pricey but great...it can get pretty loud in there but just to feel as if you are in some ritzy place feels awesome, only to...
Read More On Citysearch panchamora 2/5/2007 - Worst dining experience I have ever had!Dal Rae exhibited the basic textbook lesson on "how not to treat a customer" Despite making a reservation and arriving well before the reservation time, my party of (7) were not seated until 50 minutes later. This is after we volunteered to seat at the bar area. Once seated it took another 25 minutes and for me to go to the manager to get any attention from the wait person. The busboy placed ...
Read More On Citysearch gantonio 1/2/2007 - Even with reservations, waited an hour to be seated - but great foodWe had a dinner reservation for 2 people early on a Friday evening. When we arrived we were told by the Hostess it would be a 30 minute wait. After an hour we were still not seated evne though we spotted an empty booth; after some discussion and receiving some attitude from the Hostess, she finally agreed to seat us. The wait was attitude was a bit a big disappointment, but the service in the ...
Read More On Citysearch g171 12/28/2006 - Fine Dining Close to HomeThe atmosphere and service are excellent at this restaurant. My family and I have been going for more than 10 years! The food is always delicious and never a disappointment! I highly recommend the Chilean Sea Bass, baked! The staff goes out of their way to please. You cant experience it without having your cesar salad prepared tableside in front of you or the bananas flambee or cherries jubilee!

Read More On Citysearch 25oct1944 7/7/2006 - great food, huge portionsOn top of the ambience, this restaurant has some of the best meals I've had in LA. Instead of going to the trendy movie-star owned restaurants where the plates are decorated more with garnish than actual food, I prefer to eat at the Dal Rae every night of the week! It's consistantly delicious with so many options that I've never gotten sick of eating there. Definitely a place I could eat (and ...

Read More On Citysearch russkar 8/9/2005 - A Hidden GrooveI am constantly looking for a restaurant in LA that has a real vibe- a place that hasn't sold out to the Hollywood scene of small portions and loud music. The Dal Rae IS that place! It feels like a 50s mob movie set, with dark wood, a piano bar, and red leather booths. The food is exquisite and classic, with generous portions. My personal favorites include the Ahi on Toast appetizer, the fres...
Read More On Citysearch ssstar18 5/23/2005 - Delicious food, huge portionsIt is a surprised to find such a wonderful restaurant in this area. Will definitely return
Read More On Citysearch chriswan 4/9/2005 - worth the drive for special occasionsThe Dal Rae is a fabulous restaurant with a glamorous retro vibe. If you are a small party (4 or less) and want a more casual experience, make reservations in the bar area. You can order dinner, cocktails and watch the lounge act. Otherwise, reserve a table a bit earlier - or later - on a Friday or Saturday.
There's even a private outdoor smoking patio, with a 50s-modern fireplace, where aft...
Read More On Citysearch jssb71 3/9/2005 - Lots of Stuffy Valley peopleThe decor is elegant, the service was very good by Awhny, a Jennifer Garner look alike,Lots of women in black walking around, reminded me of the apprentice episode. Mixed drinks were pitiful at best. I was dissapointed by the Famous pepper steak, I was not wowed!! The dessert was good Apple cobbler with vanilla ice cream . I felt like sardine, they pack as many people as they can. It was a Satu...
Read More On Citysearch lg6500 10/19/2004 - Hidden treasure indeedI discovered this restaurant about 5 years ago, and on my first visit there the multiple Rolls Royces in the parking lot screamed, "you're not in Pico Rivera anymore", and if you know the area, you know that's really something. I now request Dal Rae for my birthday meal, you should too. You won't be disappointed.
Read More On Citysearch lover_of_the_arts 5/28/2004 - Hidden treasureI've seen this place for a long time driving by and never paid much attention other than the fact it looks like a cool old 50s style building. I noticed all the nice cars and valets one day and thought it was strange for Pico Rivera, so I looked it up on the net and it seemed pretty cool. Wife and I went for dinner one night and though its not cheap the food was REALLY good (pepper steak is recom...

Nice ambience even if your business casual. 1st came the relish tray, nice crisp veggies & the breadbasket. Next was the oysters Rockefeller, then salad and the hot garlic cheese bread. We had the Lobster Thermidor and pepper steak. We were stuffed from our previous courses but...
