Literally one of the best meals we have ever had. The layers of flavor on every dish we had were so deep. Not only were the flavors excellent, but the execution! The best octopus I've ever had, not a springiness to the bite at all. And how can a potato be so soft on the inside and so crispy on the outside all while being doused in a delicious sauce? It makes no sense and yet somehow they've done it. Service by Jordan and pace were excellent as well. It's a shame we don't live in LA or we'd be here all the time. And to top itall off, we had no idea this was a Top Chef restaurant until the server told us. Love that we've seen him on TV!

Food, cocktails, and service were awesome!! The restaurant and hotel are really pretty. A bit pricey for the portions but super delicious - the lamb was amazing!

Ladyhawk has a great vibe and a really nice space, but the food did not fully land for me. A few dishes felt under seasoned, and the pacing was off, with plates coming out awkwardly spaced. That said, the room is lovely and feels like it has a lot of untapped potential. With better timing and bolder seasoning, this could be a standout.

Beautiful hotel and excellent restaurant! They have a good happy hour as well with food and drinks and is worth checking out. The space is classy and the service is very professional. Our group was pleasantly surprised overall and enjoyed each of our dishes. The Mezze platter is wonderful to share and has classic Middle Eastern flavors. We really enjoyed the Olive Oil Cake too and was also very shareable.

Open now nearly two years and still firing on all cylinders, Ladyhawk is awesome. In the city that virtually started the Middle Eastern / Mediterranean food scene in the US, LA is filled with them. Ladyhawk stands apart by offering not just truly authentic food, but food well prepared using high quality ingredients and serving them in a high end yet comfortable atmosphere evoking feelings of eating a great meal at well-to-do friend's home. Chef Charbel brings skill, taste and soul to the enterprise, especially the food. Every dish we've ever had here is superb save for the dry-aged fish starter; we enjoy dry-aged cooked fish, but have never had it raw, which we thought smelled too fishy. Other than that, every dip (& bread), salad, vegetable and protein we've shared is a fantastic bite with balanced flavors and textures. Can't say enough good things about the place, hope it lives on and on!

The most authentic middle eastern dips and bread, delicious
Came here for a birthday celebration and absolutely loved it.
Restaurant is tucked inside the La Peer Hotel. Very cute space. The food was great - we ordered the Za'atar Man'oushe, Octopus, Olive Crusted Rack of Lamb, Seared Halloumi, and Roasted Rainbow Carrots. Carrots were the only miss, highly recommend everything else. Service was very polite and attentive, but could use some polish. Will be back.
Dourade was delicious! Salad and potatoes were perfect accompaniments. It was early evening so still quiet; a lovely space and our service was kind and friendly.
