Pinot Bistro serves a traditional French American cuisine located in Studio City, California delivering a hearty bistro and a great selection of wine. The place feels like home and has a very casual feel.

One of my favorite Hawaiian restaurants. A variety of foods to choose from. Just make sure to try the Misoyaki Butterfish, it just melts in your mouth. This favorite is also available in a “Classic Trio” which includes: Misoyaki Butterfish, Hibachi Grilled Salmon and Original Blackened Ahi.

Their desserts are yummy, especially the Melting Hot Chocolate Cake(not Soufflé).

Cafe Bizou is a nice cozy restaurant. If you’re into corkage fee, it’s $2. You get to wine and dine. There are 3 locations. My fav is the one in Old Town Pasadena. Check it out. Enjoy!!
