I had a lovely, quick meal last night at the Hollywood Rooftop Restaurant & Bar. I actually wish I…read morediscovered it sooner because it's great to pop into for drinks or eats before a screening at TCL or Egyptian Theatre down the street. It's really pretty on the rooftop plus has a fun vibe with a few wax figures around! Will Smith, James Dean, The Rock, Zendaya, Marilyn Monroe...a bunch of A Listers to dine around! lol! The staff was all so nice and kind here! I was actually really surprised to find such amazing staff at such a tourist type of spot. They were all just so great!!! The other clientele seemed to be coworkers there for happy hour, tourists popping by, then my friend and I! It was a good mix of people hanging out up there. I really liked the vibes. We went during happy hour which had a bunch of drink specials. I had a Mocktail which wasn't on the HH menu but it was so gorgeous and tasty! The Zombie ($12) had Grapefruit, lime juice, black iced tea, tiger's blood and was wonderful. I really appreciate when places put effort into their NA drinks. Also on the HH menu were a few food options and my friend had a $4 Steak Taco which he was happy with. I had the Box Office burger which was incredibly indulgent with A Cajun-spiced patty, balsamic onions, bacon jam, arugula and garlic aioli on a pretzel bun. Plus, they bring a little pan of melted blue cheese which they will pour tableside onto the burger for you. Cute! And I loved the burger. Who knew there was a great restaurant and bar on top of Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum on Hollywood Boulevard!? I didn't but now we ALL know~!

The attention to detail was insane even from the floral elevator that takes you up to the silver etched with Dior. The ambiance was gorgeous and the service was impeccable. Service was so attentive to our friend's dietary restrictions and let us know of the accommodations they could make. FYI they cook with a lot of alcohol not a lot as in it tastes boozy but a lot in that it's in a lot of the sauces. But the food itself was excellent the mushroom consommé was a masterpiece both aesthetically and gastronomically. I also had the abalone which was cooked perfectly so that it wasn't rubbery. It was way out of my comfort zone but delicious. I almost forgot they set the tone with the amuse buche which was like a floral pickle chip? I don't know how to describe it other than it was BEAUTIFUL and tasted like a dill chip. The whole experience was fascinating and a great place to people watch. Can't wait to go again. Be sure to dress to impress as there was no shortage of Hermes and Dior around.

Parking lot is for EV only, but there are a ton of street parking right next to the lot entrance, found a spot asap. It was surprisingly very low crowd, it felt like a weekday. We explored a bit, and hung out on the rooftop where movies are played on the big screens. Plenty of seating, staff is constantly available and ready to help/clean. For food, we got a spicy chicken sandwich, fries, + drink/souvenir cup for $28. It was honestly REALLY good! I was tempted to get the Tesla box for $4, but the sandwich already comes in one! We spent a nice hour here and it was a fantastic time.

Review is for breakfast buffet - three days in a row…read more The Front Yard is the main restaurant in the Garland, and is famous for brunch, lunch, and dinner in a spacious restaurant with classic Hollywood and Polynesian vibes. Its also the main breakfast option for guests. Expect a 5-10 wait for breakfast. The adult and child buffet are actually very reasonable compared to the typical Hyatt or Marriott buffets. They tend to have the same stuff: scrambled eggs with cheese, spinach, and tomatoes, bacon, a thick chicken sausage, and roasted potatoes for the hot stuff. They have oatmeal, cereals, Chobani Yogurt, and assorted baked goods. My son's favorite of course are bananas, cantaloupe, and honeydew. Although the food doesn't change, its consistently good. 4 stars overall. For ala carte items, we tried Nutella-stuffed french toast, Avocado Toast, and an egg white scramble which turned out to be my wife's favorite. Super rich with healthy proteins and fats. For our three trips, we got the best service from Miko. The other two times the servers were less attentive and the kitchen got super backed up and we wound up taking some breakfast to go as lunch for a departing flight.

This is one of local gem dining in the area. Always crowded. We walked in around 5:30pm right when…read moredinner time on a Sunday. They have some reservations already. They do wait for people to arrive and placed them before start assigning tables for walk in wait list. Nice gesture but lots of empty tables. We got seated to our table about 30min. Otherwise they said the next one will be around 7pm+. Next when the plate came out. It did takes awhile, about 30-40min for our order. Kinda long even though the dining area still has plenty of empty tables. Maybe we were on the bad days. AC was warm on our side even the tech came to check out while patio has wind breeze and the other side has cold AC. Now, the food, it's not too bad but nothing special. Fried chicken tasted good. Mac & Cheese are using shell pasta. instead of macaroni pasta. For the price, we could find better food. Parking is gated or Valet. About $8/hour on the gated side. Free when you purchased the food.

My friends and I came here to grab drinks and a burger before a concert at the Palladium, shoutout Hippie Sabotage. The whole establishment was open where you can see all of outside, we sat on the patio area where the sun was beaming at our faces lol Service here was pretty bad, our server didn't come much to ask for refills for beers or ring our check up. The burgers were pretty good, I especially enjoyed the fries. I ordered "The Cheese Burger" which was a classic cheeseburger. It was juicy and the bun was great too. It's like a gourmet burger but not worth $17, it should be priced at like $12-$15 at most! But the fries were seasoned perfect and my type of fries. Ketchup here was good too, I dont usually like it but it now I love it.

Indoor seating has that Tulum vibe--chandeliers, music, really nice energy. Now that it's warming up, the patio is also a solid move. Food is consistently good. We always get the burger--it's one of the best. This time we tried the crispy chicken and wow... sweet, spicy, super underrated. Got ranch with it and it was a perfect combo. Also tried their pizzas--really solid, and they have gluten-free options. Ivan was our waiter, super nice, and the food came out fast. We were in and out in like 30 minutes (we do eat fast though). Definitely coming back for the burger and to try more of the menu.

The staff was friendly and very attentive. The wings and drinks themselves were super flavorful and I thought I would have more time to enjoy and come back to visit while in town. My partner also tried their burger and fries and decided to stop by the restaurant only to find out they closed a couple of months ago. It was worth the visit when we went there back in December.z The place was cute and it felt comfy.

The patio is beautiful and amazingly quiet for being so close to Cahuenga. The food is fresh, beautifully seasoned, and delicious. The menu is varied enough that it has options for vegetarians and vegans too.I've never been anything less than delighted with anything I've ordered.

This is a very sharp looking bar/restaurant located technically on Sunset Boulevard, but if you…read moreblink, you may miss it. It is tucked just off of Sunset and, sadly, it is easy to miss. I have probably driven by it a hundred times or more without seeing it. Thankfully, I know where it is now and, even better, they have a few dedicated parking spaces behind the restaurant, but good luck with the extremely finicky pay machine. Who knew that "electric owls" were nighttime train conductors? Well, now you know. The train theme is carried through the decor of the restaurant and apparently, this is the site of an old train station. My Sunset Sour was a very nice whiskey sour. They have six nonalcoholic cocktail (mocktail) options, which was impressive. The Grill Daddy Burger (with bacon, cheese, BBQ sauce, and more) was very nice. They were offering fries with crab during our visit and they sounded decadent. Under other circumstances, we would have tried them but couldn't do so this time around. You can hang at the bar, on the outside bar patio, or inside the very cool-looking interior restaurant area. Think 1920s decor, literally 100 years ago, but still awesome today. This is a very nice spot for cocktails, mocktails, and well-made upscale bar food.
