    Nachos

    Gotta hand it to this spot, their food and drinks are incredible! Ordered their nachos to share and it was so on point! Also ordered their michelada, I enjoyed it so quick that I forgot to take a pic! Hats off to the solo woman behind the bar, she was impeccable and so helpful!

    Stopped here for a drink while waiting for our tacos to be done at another spot, we got the dodgers blonde ale with a tajin rim and it was super refreshing. The service was quick, the line can get a little crazy though. There's not much seating at the bar itself but you can take your drink and enjoy it anywhere inside the building. They also service food as well but not after 8:30/9 pm. I would only return here in I'm in the area

    The Baseline: For a bar that also serves food the drinks must be good, the food offerings must fit the establishment, and the service needs to make the experience fun. Food: Just had drinks and the Golden Road beers were very tasty. The Mango Cart draft was hoppy and had a nice hint of mango. Very enjoyable. Service: Good solid service that was quick and efficient. Ambiance: Grand Central Market is a bustling and vibrant. Restrooms are public to the market. Seating at the bar was easy to get and it was comfortable but the environment is loud and sometimes hard to hear conversations.

    First time in the market was a little overwhelming on a Sunday with many people, so many options to choose from, got a coldie to calm the nerves! Great tasting beer. We've driven by the Huntington harbor location often and I've always wondered if it was worth stopping. So glad I know now that they have some decent beer! I had a mango cart michelada (highly recommend) and ordered a guava cart for my honey. So refreshing. The pub is right at the entrance where the angel flight railway is across the street, there is a bar but limited seating which was full, but no line at the time we went so we got our drinks pretty quickly. I probably wouldn't drive here specifically for this but if ever in the area or visiting the grand central market I'd have to make a stop again.

    I come here for the chicken tenders and fries or their burgers. Both are good choices, they do have other food items but I haven't tried it yet. Seems like their friend coconut calamari or shrimp is one to try also.

    Did someone say...Tasty cold beer and Michiladas? Friendly service and good place to chill out and day drink.

    It was a Grand Central Market kind of night so my wife and I walked over and tried to figure out where to eat. After much deliberation, we saw some open seats and a menu with some burgers on it, so we sat down and ordered some food from Golden Road Brewing. This place had a nice vibe to it, the staff was super friendly, and the menu had the bar food you would generally want from a brewery on it. I ended up ordering the Spicy BBQ Burger on it and splitting an order of the chicken tenders and fries as our side dish. The french fries here were pretty solid, seasoned, and tasted pretty good, so no complaints there. The chicken tenders were super average and kind of just tasted like frozen chicken tenders, while the Spicy BBQ Burger was a bit of a mixed bag. Every aspect of the burger tasted good, except for the bacon. It's almost like they cooked the bacon at 900 degrees until it was rock hard and completely unenjoyable. When I broke a small piece of the bacon off, it basically turned to dust, it was truly awful. Overall, Golden Road Brewing was a mediocre experience and one I probably wouldn't try and relive. The service and the atmosphere was good, but the food just fell short and didn't leave much to want to return for.

    4+ Conveniently located within the Grand Central Market with friendly service and a solid selection of different beer styles. The corner of the market where it's located is giving off some microbrewery vibes. With all the food spots within the market - and I'm not sure if this place is the only spot or how many spots in the market are allowed to serve beer/wine - it's a great place to grab a beer with your food from other spots. Another option is just ordering food from here along with your beer. There are also a couple of televisions there and a wide seating area so you can watch some of the game while enjoying some food and beverages. I personally got a taco from another spot and came here to order a lager to wash down my meal. The Thursday Night Football game was on as well so it was kind of a great setup.

    Beer and wings.

    Best place to grab some drinks, especially if Steph is working the bar!! The wings are the best!

    Mango Cart

    After a nice filling lunch at the Grand Central Market, what's next? Stopped by Golden Road Brewing to chill, relax, and take in LA. This market is so crowded and busy that you might feel like you need a moment to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. There's really no designated seating here, it's first come first serve tables. They have a decent amount of food/snack choices. Came here to chill with a pour of a cold Mango cart. Beer is not my thing, but this is actually very nice. Highly recommend to check this place out if you're in the area.

    Beer selection

    One of the best places to get beers in DTLA. Stephanie is the best bartender. Her energy and knowledge of beer helps so much.

    Good beer! Good location and you can walk around with your beer inside if grand central market, service was good and prompt. There is a little bit of bar stool seating at this location, Ambiance is fun cause you're in the giant market with all the hustle and bustle - didn't try the food this time

But...the food in the bar is definitely sub-par. I was really in the mood for the fish & chips ($25) but was very disappointed. The fish tasted doughy not at all crisp, and the fish was not fresh - had an off taste. I hadn't eaten lunch so I was really hungry & I ate it all, but not good. The fries were typical frozen out of a package & were luke warm at best. It came with cole slaw that was slimey & completely inedible - I mean AWFUL! It's a shame because the place has such character & it has a loyal following, The service is amazingly slow. I was at my table for 10 minutes before I got up & snagged a menu myself. Then, another 10 minutes before I got up again & went to the bar to order, but the barman told me that a waiter would come to my table. Many minutes later I finally ordered. My drink & my water glass were empty forever. I finally had to snag down another waiter to get another drink. I probably will come back because I love the cozy Scottish pub atmosphere, but they have a treasured gold mine here and they are squandering it for sure. No one seems to care. What a shame! It could easily be a really top notch spot. I'm giving this place 3 stars solely for the ambiance.

    I have dined at this historic and iconic restaurant a number of times, invariably during DineLA…read moreweeks. When booking another DineLA res, I noticed the Tam now offers a "Walt's Table 31" lunch or dinner experience. Walt Disney's favourite table used to be by request, but the Tam now wisely monetizes the table by making it a 2-hour pre-fixe lunch or dinner experience for up to 4 people. The lunch price was just $4 more than DineLA, so I booked it. Tam O'Shanter, named after a Scottish poem, opened in 1922. It was designed by Harry Oliver, a Hollywood art and set director who also designed the Witch's House (Spadena House) in Beverly Hills. Both are done in whimsical Storybook architecture style. Levels were not used in construction, hence the lopsided/sloping appearance of some features. The Tam became the de facto Disney Studio commissary when Walt Disney and his Imagineers would often come here to eat when the Disney Studio was still nearby in Silver Lake on Hyperion (1926-1940). His regular table is a 4-top in the main dining room, next to a fireplace. The Tam has several dining rooms, plus a bar/lounge. There is a hidden speakeasy on the premises as well. The Tam was the inspiration for the design of the Snow White ride at Disneyland. It's now part of the Lawry's family of restaurants. The Walt's Table 31 experience consists of 4 courses for both lunch and dinner. You reserve and prepay on Open Table with no refunds or cancellations. We originally booked and prepaid for 2 people, but were able to add 2 more and paid onsite for these additional folks. There seem to be 2 lunch and 3 dinner spots available each day in 2-hour increments. Dinner is $20 more but portions are larger. There's a "Walt's Welcome Cocktail" available; any beverage alcoholic or not is not included. Backstories by the server and a few souvenirs (your menu, a pin, a print) are included. Plus you get a punch card for return visits; apparently the souvenirs progress the more times you come. The menu: 1) everyone gets deviled eggs, bacon-wrapped dates (aka Devils on Horseback) and pickled veggies. The eggs had a nice kick. 2) 1st course options were a Wedge Salad or the Tam's Famous Chili. The salad was huge with an abundance of bleu cheese. The chili was very nice, topped with onions and cheese. 3) 2nd course options--there were 4, but we all got either The 31 Burger (Walt's Go-To Order) or the World Famous Prime Rib (California cut). Salmon or a vegetarian dish were the other options. The burger was served open-faced on toasted sourdough, topped with bacon, Scotch Rarebit (a cheese and ale sauce) and onions, served with chili fries. The prime rib, which I assume is identical to Lawry's, was the California cut, served with mashed potatoes and gravy, creamed spinach or corn and Yorkshire pudding. Larger cuts are available. You get horseradish cream or more potent plain horseradish. 4) Dessert--C.C. Brown's Hot Fudge Sundae or English Trifle. The sundae was quite large , topped with whipped cream and peanuts, with a small pitcher of chocolate sauce alongside. The trifle was also large--cake, whipped cream and strawberries layered in a glass. Overall a delish, classic meal served in a historic fun space. That punch card may get more use!

    This was one of our favorite places in pre-pandemic Pasadena. We had some "could have been better"…read moreexperiences during the awkward period of reopening several years ago, but since then it seems to have mostly hit its stride. Overall, our recent experiences have been solid. It's always great when an "old favorite" still feels like a good value. I miss some of the menu items like the lentil shepherd's pie, but we have very much enjoyed the hearty English breakfast. They also have a good selection of European beers on tap. Service has been friendly, but it is lightly staffed and pretty slow, so it's not a good place if you are in a hurry. They don't keep an eye on the patio, so if you sit out there, it's best to go inside and let them know. They also seem to have more rules than before - but I have to imagine these have come from experience. I don't think this is an ideal place to go with a large group. If it's a quiet night you might be able to pull tables together long-ways, but most tables seem ideal for 2-4. We come with our dog and sit on the patio when it isn't busy. The dog meals are massive (more food than ours eats in a whole day and she weighs 60 lbs). It's a good value, but beware if your dog is on a diet! Overall, my favorite thing is that genuinely feels like a pub, in that you can just come as you are and take your time without being rushed. A good fit for both locals and visitors in Pasadena.

The bartenders are friendly, attentive, and genuinely on top of things, which is a big reason we've kept coming back. Over time, we've even met some of the owners, and the place has always felt welcoming and well-run, even through ownership changes. That's why this last visit stood out and not in a good way. The bar was packed for the basketball games, and the staff was clearly hustling. Honestly, they could've used more support behind the bar for a crowd like that. Instead, one of the partners seemed to take on the role of... social host. He made sure people knew who he was, but didn't actually step in to help where it mattered. We've seen other partners jump behind the bar or run food when things get busy, so the contrast here was hard to miss. At times, it felt less like leadership and more like a running announcement tour. Meanwhile, the team that was actually working kept pushing through a packed house. The vibe took another hit with the TVs. With so many screens already locked on basketball, it didn't seem like a big ask to change just one on baseball. One of the bartenders even put it on, but a few minutes later, after a guest played into Mr. Big Shot's ego, he went and changed it right back. Just unnecessary, and honestly felt a little performative. We still like this place and really appreciate the staff who show up and do the work. But that interaction definitely left a different impression than what we've come to expect here.

    During the World Cup we checked out some German beer gardens, and somehow over saw this one,…read morepossibly the only heart-driven authentic German one. The most we have seen so far, it was more a "business plan" let's do what Americans may think a German beer garden looks like. Our friend, the LA promoter Vahe, took us yesterday. We found a little gem, grown over the years, with an actual German owner and a service that had more than basic knowledge of German food. Nice! The ambiance was what you would expect from a place like this, less stylish-designer but more owner look-what-we-brought-from-Germany over the many years. The food was actually good, reasonably priced and generously portioned - the sauce platter really deserved its name "platter"- Came with great German curry ketchup. It would be too much to brag about the food, it was decent better than just OK version of classic beer garden dishes. But one has to be fair: where in German beer gardens you find food really worth bragging about? So while I was really tempted to stop at 4 out of five stars, I give 5. After all, it matches my most key how-to-get-5 element: would I do a 30+ min detour just to go here. If someone asked me to show them decent German cuisine in a somewhat authentic ambiance, I would take them here.

Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. I ordered the chicken schnitzel with mushroom gravy, my boyfriend got the Hungarian brat with spaetzle, and our friend ordered the Hungarian brat on a roll. Starting with the schnitzel: it wasn't completely terrible, but it definitely wasn't good. The breading was some what soggy and sliding off the chicken, and the chicken itself had almost no seasoning besides an odd lemony sourness. The mashed potatoes were honestly awful -- extremely sour, like they were overloaded with sour cream but missing butter, salt, or any real flavor. I LOVE mashed potatoes and only managed two bites before giving up. The red cabbage was overcooked, mushy, and had a slightly off taste. Overall, the schnitzel plate was maybe a 2/10, and those points go solely to the fact that the chicken itself was technically edible. My boyfriend's meal somehow managed to be worse. The bratwurst was fine, but tasted frozen and reheated rather than fresh. The sauerkraut, according to him, "tasted like dirty socks." The spaetzle was genuinely offensive -- mushy, overly bland, and tossed with what looked like hydrated diced mushrooms that literally tasted like dirt. I honestly questioned whether it had gone bad. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself felt dirty and had a strange smell throughout. It honestly seems like a place locals may still visit out of habit or convenience, but it no longer reflects what I imagine it once was. It's unfortunate, because there's something special about a restaurant that's been around for 65 years and still tries to maintain its old-school charm. Sadly, the food and cleanliness just don't live up to that legacy anymore. Save your money unless you're only stopping in for an overpriced German draft beer. We definitely won't be back.

The place was so fun, the food was epic and service tremendous. Since our first visit literally 4 months ago, I have taken people 3 different times to this restaurant. I don't live any where near Burbank but in the last few months had the pleasure of being near there and telling friends we had to go! It's so fun to go with first timers. Great vegan options too for my friend who is Vegan and usually gets a salad and fries ha.

    - Broken Compass Tiki…read more My girlfriend and I absolutely loved Broken Compass Tiki. I originally found it on TikTok, followed up with a few YouTube videos, and knew I had to check it out the next time we were in Burbank. It completely lived up to the hype. Parking can be a little challenging since it's in Burbank, but we got lucky and found a street parking spot nearby. If you don't get as lucky, driving around the block or into the surrounding neighborhood should eventually turn something up. We arrived about 20 minutes after they opened, and there were already several people inside. By the time we left, the place was filling up quickly, so it's definitely a popular spot. I surprised my girlfriend by keeping the destination a secret and just telling her we were going somewhere fun with a unique theme. She loved it. From the moment we walked in, the service was outstanding. Both the bartender and our server were incredibly welcoming. Our server asked whether it was our first visit and took the time to ask what kinds of drinks we normally enjoy before making recommendations. I really appreciated that he wasn't just trying to upsell us. Instead, he explained why he thought certain cocktails were better choices based on our preferences, and every recommendation ended up being spot on. As you'd expect from a tiki bar, the cocktail menu is heavily rum-focused, but there are also non-alcoholic drinks, a small beer selection, and wine available if rum isn't your thing. I ordered the Zombie Magic first, which was delicious and definitely packed a punch. After that, I tried the 100 Year Cigar, a Scotch-based cocktail that was perfect for slowly sipping. Both drinks were fantastic. My girlfriend ordered the Painkiller and the Navy Grog, and she loved both of them. We started with the Shut It Polly wings, crispy chicken wings tossed in a spicy Thai peanut sauce, and they were outstanding. We also ordered the Aloha Dippers with the Cajun seasoning. I paired mine with the Chipotle Citrus Aioli, while my girlfriend chose the Firecracker sauce. Both dipping sauces were excellent and complemented the fries really well. For our entrées, I ordered the Pub Burger with Irish cheddar, onion strings, and horseradish aioli, cooked to order. It was excellent. My girlfriend ordered the Shrimp & Lobster Roll, and we both enjoyed it. The only item that didn't quite meet our expectations was the macaroni salad that came with our meals. We've had some incredible macaroni salad at Hawaiian restaurants, and this one just didn't quite compare. It certainly wasn't bad, but it was the one part of the meal that didn't stand out. One thing that really impressed me was how accommodating the staff was regarding my raw fruit allergy. I explained what I could and couldn't safely eat or drink, and our server took it seriously. He made sure every cocktail recommendation was safe for me without sacrificing flavor or experience. That level of attention made me feel comfortable ordering drinks I otherwise might have avoided. The décor is also worth mentioning. The pirate-themed exterior transitions into a fun pirate-and-tiki atmosphere inside that really adds to the experience without feeling overdone. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. The drinks were strong and creative, the food was excellent, the service was some of the best we've had in a long time, and the atmosphere was a blast. There are still plenty of cocktails on the menu that I'd like to try, so we'll definitely be back the next time we're in Burbank.
