Definitely more of a bar than a restaurant. Seems to be a place to have appetizers and drinks instead of a full meal. The food was okay nothing too special but not bland. I would go again just to sit at the bar

The aesthetic was so endearing and hip, and the food was simply amazing. I got the chicken liver toast and was surprised at just how much flavor there was in it. I don't live in the area so I'm sad I can't come here all the time!

My girlfriend and I just started to come here on a regular basis for the happy hour menu. We both love the burger and fries combo for just $10. And it’s great quality!

What a gem, especially with such historic and cultural meaning for the LGBTQ+ community! The food, wine list and service were all excellent.

The food was better than I expected, especially their salad and steak. The beet salad was amazing and the steak was cooked to perfect medium rare. We enjoyed the chicken liver toast, which pared beautifully with the gamay we got. Moreover enjoyed the cavatelli pasta dish we got with calabrian peppers (don't see if on the online menu now). Finally, we finished with the basque cheesecake, which is my favorite cheesecake. Could be a bit more caramelized but enjoyed every bite.

I was told they had an interesting wine menu and they did. They got me at Gamay but had another Spanish Red, Trepat, I have never had that was somewhere between a pinor noir and a sancerre rouge chilled. Also had the Cinsault, I didn't get to try yet.

We had a great server who fit the vibe. Welcoming and friendly and kept with the temp of our meal. Also the atmosphere is like a big clean pub and great people watching, especially the week before Halloween when all the costume parties start from DTLA to WeHo!

The fries were great, they were out of a lot of their draft beers which was unfortunate but other than that the service was great.

4.5
I have been there 3 times and my experience has always been good. It has a pub like ambiance which is rare in the area and the service it’s always kind and fast.
I distract 0.5 points cause they always have long wait times. Drinks are very good too.

Lovely, classic atmosphere. Deco historic. Historic LGBT site. Super friendly staff and attentive management. My boyfriend and I went on National Coming Out night, and they had a really lit party going on in their cordoned off outdoor space, and they brought the party inside with a DJ, still walkers, and other entertainment. The food was solid, and the drinks were great and affordable. They even had a sour on the menu, which is rare to find. And their crème brûlée was really well prepared. The vibes were great. Loved the classic, historic feel with young, vibrant and Silverlake-locals energy. We’ll be back!

My first time here and I absolutely loved the food, the steak was probably the best I've had in a while.
The Mac and cheese was very tasty..not to mention the sweet potatoes, all very tasty
Great service. Don't forget the bread pudding!

Great spot for a date, very classy inside and the service was good. Food menu is a bit interesting but there are some good choices on there. Silverlake staple! Always have to come back to this spot

The restaurant is not very kid-friendly. I was with my 5-month-old baby, who was sleeping peacefully in his stroller. We wanted to have a quick dinner on their outdoor patio, where only two tables were occupied. The server told us that children are not allowed, which I found quite surprising. I checked on their website, and there are no words about kids. My baby was in the stroller and sleeping— we were not even inside the restaurant. I was very disappointed by this experience. We ended up going to Bacari cross the street and loved it there.
