    We were headed to the Hollywood Bowl and found this restaurant in my searches. Decided to try it and so glad we did. Right off of the freeway and next to the adorable Garland Hotel. Fantastic parking with validation, great atmosphere and fantastic patio and indoor area. The short rib burger, chicken tinga sliders and deviled eggs were amazing! The service was exceptional and had a wide variety of wine choices. Dessert was scrumptious....mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwich and brownie a la mode. Will be going back here for sure!!!

    Bread & duck fat butter were a bomb start to the meal. Both steaks and chicken entree were delicious, along with the veggies and mashed potatoes. Finger lickin good. Nice choice of cab sauv too. The restaurant was lively. Our server was great until it was time for the bill, we couldn't find him so eventually we had to grab someone else. Otherwise A+ first time experience. Would def go back.

    We had such a lovely experience. Erick warmly welcomed us even though he was busy, greeting us with the biggest smile and kindly taking the time to seat us at a great table. From there, Lily took over and truly made us feel taken care of with excellent service. The food was delicious, but what really stood out was the genuine kindness and warmth of everyone we met. We’ll definitely be coming back.
