Food was absolutely delicious!! We ate the chicken, brussel sprouts and Mac and cheese. 10s all around. And the apple cheesecake is BOMB!! Loved everything about the experience from the live jazz band to the amazing food! You can taste the love in this place. Highly recommend and will be back 👏🏾

Somerville is a restaurant nestled on Slauson in the Windsor Hills area of Los Angeles, sharing a complex with other neighborhood restaurants, shops, and an art gallery. The ambiance and decor feel cinematic with dark wood, black and white vintage photographs, and moody lighting that creates a cozy and intimate atmosphere, even extending to an art deco bathroom. The layout allows guests to see others without feeling overpacked. A significant highlight is the excellent live jazz band playing music sets, including interpretations of jazz greats, which sets a great vibe.
The food is consistently praised as incredible, delicious, tasty, and full of amazing flavor. It offers an elevated interpretation of classic dishes, served hot with quality ingredients. Specific menu items enjoyed include truffle fries, chicken sliders, the half chicken entree, kale salad with puree, Brussels sprouts, short rib pasta, Tres Leches cheesecake, and chocolate with strawberry ice cream. Drinks and mocktails from the bar are also noted positively.
Service experiences are mixed. Many encounters feature friendly, polite, and charismatic staff who value customers and make recommendations, contributing to an elegant dining experience. However, some reviews report disappointing service, with waiters not checking in often, delays in receiving water or drinks, and occasional inconsistencies like being sold out of rolls. Guests recommend dressing up and making a reservation. Overall, Somerville is viewed as a fantastic place for a special occasion, a nice intimate night out, or even a private event, with the outstanding food and atmosphere compelling many to return.
