Top Asian Fusion Restaurant in Westlake Village
Pick Up Stix Fresh Asian Flavors
2761 Agoura Rd, Westlake Village, CA 91361, United States
This has got to be the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten.I ordered the Family Pack for my...wait for it... family (haha) since we were craving Chinese food. The meal deal was 3 entrees, rice, chow mien, dumplings, and fortune cookies to the tune of $65 including tip for the driver. The meal was advertised to feed 4-5 people, well it was not even close to that. If youve been to those hole-in-the-wall restaurants, then you know what I mean when I say I was disappointed with the amount I got. The meal came inside one of those party platter trays and to be honest if I went to Combo A in Echo Park I could have gotten way more and higher quality food for less money.The chow mien tastes like those cheap Instant Yakisoba Noodles you get at the store for $1. Which is not what I want from a restaurant, especially after I paid what I paid for this meal. The teriyaki chicken was dry and over cooked and off course lacking in the teriyaki sauce. The rest of the food was just as subpar but those two were the biggest offenders.I felt compelled to apologize to my Wife and Child for how bad it was. I even told my Wife Id understand if she chose to break it off with me for a day due to this food.Its bad and Pick-Up Stix as an organization should rethink their menu or something because this is an embarrassment to food and the fast-casual restaurant industry as a whole.

Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village, California

Well, well, well. This place is FANCY. Yes, I realize it’s a Four Seasons and that by default, they’re going to be fancy but honestly the rooms made me feel like I was in a princess’ bedroom (those cabinets!!). But first...Let me preface by saying that I don’t have Four Seasons kind of money. I am not a part of that income bracket and I most likely never will be. I only got to stay there because my organization was hosting an event there. So I’m not a frequenter of five-star hotels or things like that and my bar is set pretty low in comparison so keep that in mind. ‘Cause to me, everything seemed so great!First off, the staff and service is beyond great. Oh my gosh, the people that work here are so nice and have such an attention to detail. It’s really next level. I would say they are constantly looking to go out of their way to make you feel at home but they’re not. I don’t think they want you to feel at home. They want you to feel like you’re a first-class lady that lives a first-class life every day because that’s just the norm for you. And for some of the visitors to the hotel, that is their norm. But for others, like me, that’s not. And not once did I ever feel like I didn’t get as good of service just because I wasn’t like most of the people staying there. I appreciated that. A lot of the time I was like “wow!” and “oh my gosh look at the reading lights above the bed!” I very clearly was not someone used to this level of service but they didn’t take short cuts ever.The beds. Oh Lordy are those beds comfortable! I would buy them for myself if I could ever afford to. And the comforters were dangerous. They were too comfy and it’s a genuine miracle I ever made it out of my room. If you use their app, you can set your room preferences in advance which is (I’m going to say it again) great. Also, something I appreciate was that I set my thermostat to the level I like (higher than most people) and they didn’t turn it back down when they came to flip the room. In my experience, most hotels will change it back to whatever their standard is which makes it too cold for me when I come back in. But not once did the Four Seasons change it back which means I was always perfectly comfortable in my room. I really appreciated that detail.Overall I really liked the decor. It’s an unusual fusion of Asian-inspired design and feminine Victorian-esque design. It’s interesting but it works surprisingly well.Location wise, it’s not a great place to be if you want to be out and about doing stuff. There’s some really yummy restaurants nearby (breakfast at CiCi’s is to die for) and a Target but not much else. But that’s not what this location is really for anyway. It’s really designed as a retreat-like health and wellness experience so, for that purpose, it’s exactly where it needs to be (surrounded by beautiful mountains). If you do need to go somewhere while you’re there, they do have a house car that will take you to and from any location within a 3-mile radius. But do keep in mind that if you need to get to and from LAX to your hotel quickly, this is NOT the place to stay. It took us an hour and a half to get from LAX to this hotel thanks to LA traffic.As a staff member of an organization holding an event there, I can say it was some of the best service we’ve ever had. We host five medium-sized events every year and I’ve had to deal with all sorts of varying hotel service quality. At this hotel though, everything they do they seem to do smoothly. They were always very responsive to our requests and quick to follow up. They treated our staff respectfully and pretty much gave us whatever we needed.Now I didn’t try the main reason why people visit: the spa. I didn’t try it because I couldn’t afford it. So I can’t give any feedback on it. Though, two of my coworkers went and said they had a fantastic experience.Overall, if you ever get the opportunity to stay here, take it. Even if it’s just for a night. It’s a lovely space with top-notch service and really friendly people. I highly recommend.
Tikka Grill Healthy Fusion & Catering
5790 Lindero Canyon Rd Unit - D, Westlake Village, CA 91362, United States
My wife and I ate lunch here. I think it was Amir (the owner?) that we ordered from, very personable. He seemed like a nice, genuine person, who cared about the product he provides.My wife got the Curry Chicken Plate, and I got the Chicken Party Wrap. We gave the food taste / quality a 7.5 and 9.0 out of 10. Our food came out in normal time range. (Not long enough that we wondered what the hold up was, or short enough that wed be asking why was that so quick?)Food came out on normal plates with metal utensils, and there was enough food that we felt full & satisfied. The restroom was nice & clean as well.Given the post-COVID and inflation influenced pricing we all see at restaurants these days, the price point was pretty much spot on. My one and only (minor) complaint was that we were already half way through our meal before we became aware that they have kind of a salsa-bar area, just past the right side of the register. It was nice to see they have what I believe was a jalapeno mash type sauce (just minced jalapenos I think), in addition to some other typical tomato type salsas.Will definitely be eating here again.
Q Sushi
30770 Russell Ranch Rd ste a, Westlake Village, CA 91362, United States
[Im leaving my original review below for historic purposes but thought Id update: The bartender, Eric, has left Q. Im not impressed with replacements. Their mixing is fine, but lacking Erics personality and finesse. Also, the Happy Hour menu has become much less attractive: same items, less care and quality. Also, clientelle has become more snobby - not the restaurants fault but nevertheless - reeks of entitlement].----Yes, the happy hour and sushi here are well worth the visit, but what I really want to highlight is Eric, the bartender, who masterfully balances the limited but wonderfully crafted cocktail selections. The Cucumber Seji Smash is PERFECT for a hot summer day, the Scorched Orange is AWESOME for the colder months, and this pictured here, is his artisan creation, the Desert Rose (between salmon sashimi and nigori saki - love the traditional earthenware serving carafe):
Roast & Rice Asian Fusion
30990 Russell Ranch Rd, Westlake Village, CA 91362, United States
The owners of this restaurant used to have a place called Prawn and Basil on Thousand Oaks Blvd, which was outstanding but sadly didnt make it through the pandemic. Their new venture is even better. With a much expanded menu, it is probably the best Asian Fusion restaurant I can think of. Many of the dishes are hands down better than what you would get if you went to a restaurant dedicated to that cuisine, and other dishes are right up there with the best in town. Were so happy to have them back!

Fantastic Asian fusion restaurant. I specifically recommend doing their lunch combos. They come in to go containers which is nice because I always have some leftovers. I highly recommend the blistered green beans and drunken noodles. Everything I’ve tried on their menu is great and if I lived a little closer I’d probably be here more often.
