   The food and service were outstanding! Many of the menu items are creative and unique. I highly recommend the fried sunchokes, local beets and pork cutlets. The bluenose + fideos and simple salad were also very good. Plates are meant to be shared. Our meal was pricey, but well worth it. Caldo Verde is is a place to put away the cell phone, relax, take your time and enjoy a great meal.

   There was one dish, the chicken that was worth the money. But the entire experience was ruined when I found a piece of plastic in my drink. They were nice and apologized and gave me a new drink. They even made it better by taking the 2 drinks off the tab. They were nice and professional but at this price point making a mistake like dropping apiece of clear plastic into a drink is pretty unacceptable. Don't think I'll be returning.

    We’re fans of Suzanne Goin’s restaurants and were excited to hear of her latest in The Proper Hotel. The space is very open with lots of windows. Waitstaff is very good and and answered all our questions about the menu very clearly. Our food was delicious and of the quality of what one expects from Goin. Definitely will be back!

    Overpriced and didn’t taste good. My girlfriend and I didn’t like one thing on the menu and we ordered just about everything. Don’t get the ribeye it was all fat and burnt. The manager was kind enough to comp us on the steak, a few appetizers and a round of drinks… but still was beyond unsatisfactory for a nearly $300 meal (post comps). The fries were amazing though. Hate to be that guy and leave a lame review but don’t waste your money. I didn’t try the pirri pirri chicken so maybe that’s good?

    Great spot in downtown LA! Ambiance is incredible feels like you’re somewhere in Europe. It’s a little on the pricey side so just be aware but still the food was incredible! Prawns were my favorite dish.

    This was a dinner for our family of five. We were right on time but almost missed the door. This was sort of hidden in plain sight and was kindly opened for us by hotel staff. Waitstaff was attentive and we began with my favorite for seafood, a fairly priced Albariño. We ordered tons of items from the menu, and the server was so gracious, helping us navigate a few inconvenient food allergies. The iced tea was a little strange but was quickly replaced with another drink. Ordering a variety of things intended to be shared allowed all of us to taste the expanse of this Spanish-centric menu. Our favorite items were the beets, Brussels sprouts, and the pork cutlets. Honorable mentions to the blood Orange salad, flank steak, sunchokes and prawns. Some of us loved the campechana, but I felt the flavor to be dull. A couple of tiny things: leftovers were packed by staff and didn’t always make it back to the table. I’m very particular about water and do not wish to have “any water” in my glass for a fine meal and some of the staff was confused by that. I also didn’t understand why the sides came out before the mains. And finally, I found the signature dish, the Caldo Verde, to be not worth the $72. The accompanying bread was burnt, and the best flavor in the soup was the linguiça. It just didn’t live up to the other fabulous dishes. All in all, it was VERY good food. The two-page wine list was full of very interesting Spanish and Portuguese wines. I’m a Suzanne Goin fan, and I am planning to return.

    Food was amazing. Everything from the cheese plate to the Brussels sprouts to the fantastic pork cutlets. And the chicken! Cannot recommend highly enough. Except it would have been nice to have a lot more grilled bread because it’s ridiculously good.

    The staff was great and the service incredible. It is inside the Proper Hotel which is a beautiful space. Went Easter Sunday for brunch which was a pre-fixe menu. Would have enjoyed the regular menu better given the options. Would give it another chance if I was already in DTLA but would not go to DTLA for this restaurant. Cute dessert spread that was definitely also more aesthetics than taste. Also was disappointed in cocktail program. The Proper i’m Austin has such a great one this one didn’t hit the mark

    Service by the bartender and the food were both excellent. Management is possibly at fault. Although we had a reservation we were asked to wait. Then, later, a waiter came over to inform us that it would be a 20-25 minute wait or we could eat at the bar. We chose to eat at the bar which soon became full. The poor bartender was slammed but did an amazing job. Next, a bar manager comes in and starts doing inventory and asking her questions while she’s hustling with all the overflow. Why isn’t he helping with the customers instead?

    This was our first time dining at Caldo Verde. It was a terrific experience. Claire helped us explore the menu and provided great suggestions of how to coordinate our meal. The food was prepared with great care and unique flavors, rare to find in LA. The pace of the food brought to the table allowed for us to enjoy each plate, which was shared amongst the table. The fish plates were exceptionally well seasoned and extremely tasty. The sun chokes were also a treat. The Boca Negra was a great finish to the evening.

    Overpriced for the return of quality and overall experience. Service was horrible, waiter did not bother to explain the menu nor attend to our party with any interest. I was disappointed to have chosen this restaurant as the place to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Cara Cara is by far provide a much better experience and overall bang for your buck. $24 for a cocktail is highway robbery..

    Right away the service was not great. Our server seemed overwhelmed with tables. She tried her best to be attentive but there were lags, especially when we were first seated and at the end trying to get our check. The food unfortunately was disappointing. The dishes were almost good but each one missed the mark.

    Beautiful atmosphere but so loud…food was pretty limited . What was ordered was delicious. But Caldo needs more help in the Valet parking..,the poor guy was parking cars, greeting new customers and carrying their luggage and then running and getting cars for restaurant customers who were leaving. Gotta say the young man was helpful and had a great attitude.
