My FAVORITE Lebanese food in the Valley. Live music on Saturday's, it's fun, relaxed, and the host, Mishel treats you like family. Tell him Jennifer and her daughter, Bella, sent you and he will ensure you have a fantastic time.

This is my favorite place in the entire city. It's not advertised, so it's a gem of a find. This makes me the happiest when I go. I can't even describe it to you. Family friendly, or the best, most romantic date night. Go here, and thank me later.

The gardens are a beautiful spot to behold. Truly a gift to the city, these gardens will make you want to pack your bags and go to Tokyo. Plan a day at the Balboa park and walk around the lake.

This is a gorgeous spot to absorb the buddhit culture, meditate, and take a beautiful walk through the gardens and pathways that are built and constructed with love. There is a reason it is given 4.9 out of 5.0 stars on most review sites!
