Great interiors. And a really nice menu. It’s an interesting take on the more normative american/french bistro menu. Creative vegetarian options. Nicely composed plates. Interesting flavor combinations. Honestly, it’s way more interesting than five leaves in brooklyn! Shhhhh

Atmosphere was sophisticated and intriguing; however, seating uncomfortable. Unique menu items-particularly enjoyed the Bavette Steak-just be prepared to Google some ingredients.

Been here once before and the food is great. But today I came at 9:00am for breakfast and they weren’t even open yet when it says it opens at 8:00am. I saw two people that work there finally pull up and go inside but they still have not turned on the lights or make it appear open so I’m just standing here waiting even tho they saw me waiting.. Not a good experience at all.

Pleasant surprise heading here on a random Monday for lunch. A friend recommended it. Super service and the food was great! I liked the vibe too!

Dull! I really wanted to like this place. Unfortunately, my experience was dull. The martini was dull. The oysters were dull. The service for that matter, too. And a couple exiting commented the restaurant was loud. I sat outdoors where a bit more lighting would have been appreciated.

Most of us loved the food. The pancakes, the fritters all great. The big breakfast wasn't good according to one and the avocado toast was bland says another. Lovely servers. Bad acoustics in the place.

The food is good, the interior design is very well done, and it's very popular, for better or for worse. I wouldn't call it a cozy place, like the original five leaves, but it's still quite nice. But busy. I found that even though we got there VERY early, we were only able to get seats at the bar.

It's a good looking place and the menu was delicious. The only thing I didn't like was the noise level was pretty high. I ended up straining my voice speaking to my friends back and forth. I had a hard time listening to the waitress next to our table even she had to yell to take our order. Our voice was horse by the time we left. Maybe some sound proofing material would definitely help with noise levels. But I go to say the food is good but I don't think I will be come here again because we can't here each other talk due to the extreme noise level

My first time at Five Leaves and I had a pleasant experience dining there. I enjoyed my fruit salad and bacon. I preferred to not use valet so I did park several blocks away because the neighborhood has permit parking mostly. It was busy at lunchtime, I was able to land a seat at the bar soon after I walked in. The bartender was friendly and my food arrived soon after I ordered it. I noticed the gentleman sitting next to me got his food soon after ordering too.I recommend Five Leaves for dining you shouldn't be disappointed.

Newly opened LA outpost of the famous Brooklyn restaurant. Classical American menu with a Californian twist. The corn fritters were good, the egg sandwich quite bland. The orange juice was advertised as fresh but tasted canned. Service was friendly but the food took a while. Overall, I'm not sure I would go back.
The Restaurant is handsome, the food was delicious, but the noise level was so uncomfortable. The three of us had to sit close together in our booth and strain our voices to talk to each other. We even had a great deal of difficulty hearing the waitress standing next to the table. We were all horse by the end of the night. A little bit of acoustical treatment would go a long way to make dinner more enjoyable. I afraid I won't be bringing more friends to Five Leaves purely because of the extreme noise level. There are too many other places in LA with equally great food where you can enjoy the company of your friends without screaming at them.

The staff is friendly. It has beautiful decor without being overdone. The food was delicious with unusual flavor combinations. My friend ran late and we were there quite a while, despite the fact that we sat in the bar area, the staff checked to see if we needed anything more but never once made us feel like we were taking too long. I will definitely be back.😊

I'm delighted by my visit.

Take into consideration that this restaurant is only 3 months old at the time of my visit. Also consider I went on a very busy Friday night. I found my experience pretty disappointing.

Best burger in LA. Beautiful space and kind people. Happy that LA gets a piece of a Brooklyn institution!
