I was finally able to check this place out on their advertised $5 Martini Mondays and left feeling…read moreso disappointed. The only saving grace is that their fries were garlicky and delicious and the drinks were tasty. The service was absolutely trash and I actually wrote "Do Better" on my ticket instead of my usual "Thank You". Both bartenders were dismissive, short and rude. With one of them saying, "I've got cleaning to do so..." after asking us if we'd decided on a second round yet. Context: my best friend is allergic to vodka and asked if she could switch the vodka out for whiskey, to which he said no (fair enough, it's a fixed menu of $10 martinis instead of $5 btw). And then proceeded to tell us he had better things to do than to assist with a drink selection. The next bartender stopped by the party next to us who were rolling the dice to get a free Girl Dinner (if you get doubles and have already ordered the girl dinner, you get it for free) this was not advertised and when I rolled doubles she told me I didn't qualify for the free meal because I hadn't ordered it before rolling the doubles. When I told her I was confused by this and there was nothing stating that I had to order the girl dinner before rolling doubles to which she replied that she felt this policy was "self-explanatory". How rude. The space is very cozy and dark. Could be a cute date night but I recommend doing a reservation. It also seemed like there was a back patio or courtyard. I may return but will do so with a reservation so that way I can hopefully give them another chance without having to directly interact with the bartending staff. They also don't let you take any pictures so I don't have any to provide for this review.

The restaurant/bar is right up against the hotel lobby check-in desk, but the space is big and you don't have to sit right next to it if you don't want to. The hotel has valet parking and the restaurant does validate a couple of dollars off but it's still pricey.

I couldn't find the signage but saw a lot of windows with huge curtains and that's where it was. I entered and was greeted by a nice guy, he pointed us over to the bar since that's what we were after. The bar top was empty and plenty of seating for me and my partner. We were so impressed with their selection of gins!! It is so difficult to find a bar in LA that has a great gin selection that doesn't include the basics. This bar had truly so many gins I hadn't ever heard of so I was ecstatic. Their bar menu is carefully crafted by the genius himself, Spencer, who ended up being our bartender! Wow! What privilege. We decided to get the Vesper and Tuxedo #2. Both incredibly smooth and crisp! So refreshing. Wow! And the glassware! Spectacular attention to detail. The cocktails were crafted perfectly by Spencer and he was so kind!! He even refreshed our martini glasses with new frozen glasses to keep our drink cool. That attention to detail! Spencer, the GOAT. We ordered a bar trio tower and it was great for snacking. Came with chips and cheese, olives. I loved how the cheese paired with my martini. I ended my experience with a classic gin martini with lemon twist and of course it was perfect. If you enjoy gin martinis, this is your place! Thank you to the staff and specifically Spencer for being so amazing and talented.

Where do I even begin? This restaurant is dramatically overpriced and falls short in almost every…read moreaspect of what you would expect from a restaurant charging premium prices. Our reservation was for 8:30 p.m., but we weren't seated until 9:00 p.m. To make matters worse, there is virtually nowhere to wait. Guests are left standing outside on 3 random few tables. The hostess never even told us where to wait--I was standing directly in front of her, unsure of what to do because there wasn't enough space inside. Meanwhile, staff were constantly walking in and out through curtains that seemed intended to create an exclusive atmosphere but instead made the entire entrance feel awkward and disorganized. Once we were seated, our waitress was the highlight of the evening. She was friendly, attentive, and did a great job explaining the menu and the nightly specials. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. Every dish we ordered was excessively salty. The cocktails arrived only half full, with so much ice that there was barely any actual drink to enjoy. Even the table setting was poorly thought out--the oversized silverware constantly slid off the small plates. The restaurant seems far more focused on looking upscale than actually delivering a premium dining experience. Basic details were overlooked throughout the meal. Tables were "cleaned" with a dry napkin, leaving visible streaks and food residue behind. Dessert was brought out without a plate, with nothing more than a spoon placed directly on the table. Attention to detail is what separates great restaurants from average ones, and unfortunately this place misses the mark at every turn. I won't be returning. In my opinion, this is another trendy Los Angeles restaurant that's trying too hard to be something it's not. Unless significant improvements are made, I wouldn't be surprised if it follows the same path as many other overhyped restaurants that quickly disappear. The food is nothing memorable, and the overall experience certainly doesn't justify the price. Save yourself the time and money and dine somewhere else.

If you can make it Monday through Thursday, don't miss their happy hour--it's one of the best deals in town.

Food: fried calamari... well cooked, tender, totally flavorless. Caesar Salad with chicken... VERY little dressing (we had to request more as well as salt and pepper, the chicken... dry as cardboard.

TLDR: Delilah delivers the quintessential LA dinner experience, low lighting, live music, and…read moreexpensive comfort food. Aa few dishes are genuinely excellent, the restaurant doesn't separate itself from the countless other upscale lounge-style spots around town. Delilah is about as LA as it gets. you got the dim lighting, leather booths, dark wood bars, and a live singer setting the mood for date night. It's a relatively small restaurant, giving it a somewhat exclusive, locals-only feel, but oddly it never quite becomes cozy or intimate. Food: Appetizers & Sides -Lobster Rolls ($33) - 3/5: Good flavor, but calling these "rolls" is generous when it's really one roll sliced in half. They're served cold, which may be your thing, but I'd probably pass next time. -Grilled Cheese ($24) - 5/5: Yes, you're absolutely paying for the vibes, but this works. One grilled cheese sandwich cut into four sticks and served with a tomato bisque for dipping. Fun, comforting, and surprisingly satisfying. No notes. -Pigs in a Blanket ($26) - 1/5: Sounds fun on paper but completely misses. Slightly elevated pigs in a blanket that somehow cost $26. Easy skip. -Macaroni Gratinée ($24) - 5/5: You have to order this just to experience it. Rich, cheesy, and different enough to justify the price. One of the more memorable dishes of the night. Salad -Iceberg Wedge Salad ($23) - 3/5: A well-executed wedge salad. The blue cheese dressing is balanced without overpowering everything else. I wasn't a fan of the halved cherry tomatoes. I would've preferred diced tomatoes. And the bacon came in thick chunks instead of crispy bits. Decent, but I wouldn't order it again. Entree -Shrimp Alla Vodka ($40) - 5/5: Inevitably I compared this to Elephante's vodka pasta, and while it's less spicy, it succeeds in its own way. The shrimp are a welcome addition, the sauce is silky and flavorful, and the campanelle pasta does a great job holding onto every bite. Would I Return Rating? Maybe. There are still a few dishes I'd like to try, but I'm conflicted. The food has some highlights, but the overall vibe never felt particularly inviting. Delilah ultimately delivers the same polished LA dinner experience you can find at plenty of other restaurants around the city. If you're looking for the atmosphere, you'll probably enjoy it. If you're chasing memorable food, I'd be more selective with what you order.

However, I had already made a reservation so there was no backing out so I told myself to go in with zero expectations. Maybe we just got lucky, but my friend and I had such a great experience here last weekend from the moment we stepped in. Here's what we ordered. Steak Tartare & Caviar: I'm a sucker for steak tartare. If it's on the menu, I'm gettin' it. Non-negotiable for me, full stop. Very delicious! The size of the dice was perfect. Thoroughly seasoned throughout and the little toasties were an excellent vehicle for the tartare. 10 oz Hanger Steak: Not bad, not terrible, not amazing. Very middle of the road, but it was tender and cooked almost to our request (medium rare). It leaned slightly towards a medium, but no complaints at all. I'm a ribeye guy, so naturally I wasn't too big on how lean it was, but hey. As long as it's not well done, I ain't complaining about steak. We opted for the au poivre versus the truffle since we were ordering the macaroni gratinée which has truffle anyway. Macaroni Gratinée: Speaking of which - very good! I think it made for a nice heavier/rich side accompaniment to our meal. I love the little crispy edges throughout. The black truffle shavings on top were a nice touch. Truffle Risotto: Hands down the absolute worst dish we ordered. We couldn't finish it because of how salty this was and I love salty. This was just down right excessive. In hindsight I should've sent it back, but we were already kind of past the point of what might've been acceptable to send back. Flavor was fine, it was just a salt bomb with every single bite. Service was excellent and at the level of professionalism you'd expect from a restaurant like this. I loved the decor, but it is VERY dim inside which is great. However, the only problem with that is after driving for an hour in sunlight and walking into a place like this, it takes awhile for your eyes to adjust. I nearly missed my arm rest when I went to go sit down and almost ate shit. Anyway, not sure where Delilah is dropping the ball according to other diners, but my friend and I did not share the same experience as they did. Zero complaints (well, besides the risotto). We had a very enjoyable meal/experience at Delilah. Hoping to check out their Vegas location in the future!

We were a group of 6 girls and ordered about 5 dishes to share, which worked out perfectly. The pizza with prosciutto and burrata was my fav. The dinner show was definitely a highlight. One thing to keep in mind is that the restaurant is technically outdoors with a retractable roof. They close the roof during the show to make it darker and set the mood and it can get pretty hot inside. There's no AC, just fans and even in the evening it was still fairly warm with the roof open. There's service was good, everyone was friendly and attentive. Overall, I'd recommend for a fun girls night out!

I didn't make it here until March 2026 and after my first visit, I'm sorry I didn't come earlier. My husband and I came here on a Sunday night, with a last minute reservation I'd made on Resy. The restaurant wasn't very busy when we came in around 5:30ish. A lot of the tables were empty. They had both indoor and outdoor dining available, but the majority of the seats were indoor. The ambiance here is dark and chic, it reminded me very much of restaurants in NYC. It would make for a good spot for a date night or girls' night out. We made it here in time to order one thing from their happy hour menu, the tater tots. These were heavy but moreish, it was hard to stop eating them even when my stomach was telling me I was full. We also shared the corn, which I believe may have been a special/seasonal dish. It will go down as one of the best corn dishes I've ever eaten in a restaurant. My husband got the burger for his main and I got the mussels. The mussels were pretty fresh and silky, and were overall excellent, but I didn't love the broth they came in. My husband's burger was fantastic. It's one of the best burgers I've eaten at a restaurant in LA. Service was lovely and efficient.
