Gray Tavern - The "Geno" - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This place is a hidden gem on Ventura Blvd.! My boyfriend and I stopped in while for a quick drink to check the place out.

Gray Tavern is the best! I love the food , drinks and the best house band Still Kickin' L.A. The service is great here and I love that it's dog friendly !! read more

I had heard Gray Tavern was under new management, I am so disappointed about what this place is turning into. The music was horrible, loud house music blasting. My favorite drinks are gone. I just miss how it used to be. My family and I will not be coming back read more

Great food and service and atmosphere. Great specialty cocktails are awesome. Had a great time.

Seriously, this is my go to spot and it's truly because of Aaron. He's not only the friendliest person, but he's the best bartender around. He can literally do it all. He brings passion, creativity, and knowledge to every drink he makes and that's why they taste so good. As long as he is here, I'll be a regular! :) Cheers! read more

Gray Tavern - Finger old fashioned by Aaron! So yum! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I used to love coming here until my friend got food poisoning after we came 3 nights ago. My friend ordered the beef sliders and the hot shot drink. I ordered the cauliflower. She's been throwing up and had diarrhea 3 days and all she had was the burgers. Took a Covid test and it was negative so I'm not sure what made her have this reaction to the burgers but it isn't good at all. read more

Gave this place a try because they were participating in DineLA and I was elated that they did not disappoint. The deal was $35 for four courses and I'm sure my cousins will agree with me when I say it was money well spent. We tried the corn salad and the mezze sampler for the first course, mac n cheese for the second, tavern steak and lemon chicken for the third, and fosselman's ice cream for the fourth. All of the food from start to finish was well-portioned and the steak was cooked to the temperature requested. Didn't have a single complaint, but I did want to make a suggestion to management should they find themselves trolling around these parts: paper bags would make the to-go presentation much nicer than the plastic bags our food was packed in. Can't wait to go back to this place, hopefully next time we'll be able to enjoy your food there! read more

We just had our first dinner experience. Went on a Saturday night with no reservations and they were easily able to accommodate. The drinks were well made and tasted good, but note that they use more lesser known brands as their well liquor. If you have particular tastes, you may want to specify. We had the crispy cauliflower appetizer to start. It felt healthy and yet tasty all at once. For entrees, we had the burger and the pasta primavera. First, the burger was excellent. It was a good size, but not so oversized that you couldn't bite into it. I ordered it medium rare and to my delight it came that way! The patty was really flavorful and the accompanying fries were to die for. The primavera was delicious, served hot right after being cooked, and they gave us chili flakes on request. It was as good or better than local Italian joints. Lastly, the service was good. The staff were polite and friendly, and it made for a great experience. We wjll definitely go back. And soon! read more

Great place to enjoy a drink and pub food. I was there with my son and his friends and had a great time.

My friend and I were looking for a cute place for dinner and enjoyed a very nice meal with unique dishes. We had great food, service, and ambiance. Atticus came to make sure we were enjoying our meal which we greatly appreciated. We will both be back to try some of the other dishes real soon ! read more

Had a lovely dinner here- food was great but will definitely be back for another of those smoky gin & tonics. Atticus took great care of us- service was fun and personable and recommendations on point! Will be back! read more

Popped in on Sunday for brunch with my friends. It was our first time here and I will say I will most definitely be coming back. The ambiance of the place is great! It's in a good location. The food was amazing, we tried the avocado toast, breakfast sandwich, and chicken & waffles. Our server was Alicia and she was so kind and attentive. We also met Atticus who was one of the friendliest people I have ever met, he made our experience even better. I'm recommending this place to everyone and will be coming here often! read more

Decided to try for DineLA and liked everything about the experience. For starters the seating is very spaced out and everything felt very covid safe. We had the DineLA meals and everything they brought out was very tasty and well made (grilled salad, French onion soup, steak, churros and creme caramel). Our server was very nice and attentive and did such a great job even though i think he was the only one handling all the tables. We will definitely be back soon. read more

The bartender Anuar was amazing. We came for a birthday and he made the night for us. Come celebrate your birthday here!

I'm a veteran when it comes to Gray Tavern, I bring literally everyone I know there, I'm rooting for that place, but there is something extremely special and genuine about the new manager, Atticus? Hoping I'm spelling that right, that enchants you, and enamores you, vibe, food, environment, staff and him it's all I need! Thank you Gray tavern! read more

a gem in studio city! the food was excellent and the portions were huge. waitress was really nice and really enjoyed the outside patio area they have, it was a calm and chill vibe. mimosa was also good! read more

Gray Tavern - Amazing brunch in Sunday's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Good bar food and the staff is super sweet. Went on a date here and they could tell we were enjoying our time and kind of let us linger a slight bit without shoving us out at close to finish drinks and conversation. read more

Food was pretty good. The drinks were standard. However, this is why I am giving a one star review. They had a group of people who came in to do a couple songs and stand up comedy. We were not made aware that this was going on, and there did not seem to be any noticeable signage upon entering. My friends and I were sitting in the back of the bar just having a quiet conversation - not trying to be too loud but medium talking volume so we could hear each other. We were not told by anyone working there upon entering that we needed to not talk during the performance or keep a extra-quiet volume so they could record eachother. The group of people who were performing that night were constantly harassing us while we were enjoying eachothers company in the back of the restaurant. One of them stood up and walked to our table saying that we needed to be silent so they could record this performance for YouTube, and they could hear some talking in the background. At first we were just a bit confused because we were not being loud whatsoever, but the performers were acting as if they were employees and as if we were being obnoxious. Instead of them asking their staff to talk to us, they decided to handle it themselves. They were upset we were talking at regular indoor voice volume in a bar, despite being as far as we could physically could be from the performance. Mind you, this is a bar, we were just there for a couple drinks, this wasn't a concert hall, movie theater, or library. Personally, I am never someone who ever gets called out for being loud or disruptive, and we certainly weren't being anything like that. The problem was, nobody was at the bar because clearly nobody wanted to be around these people who were performing. It was not professional singing, it was clearly for fun - which is good for them, but that was a clear sign that this was not a serious event that required undivided attention. They were upset with anybody who was talking. We weren't at a concert; we were at a restaurant, sitting farthest away from the performers as we could. While one of the older woman was singing, she walked all the way up to our table which was 30 feet across the room and said, "these people are so f*cking rude!" It was so awkward and humiliating because there were only two other couples there who then left because of how awful and awkward the performers were to humiliate us. The stand up comedy guy was then making jokes about suicide that were really cringe and distasteful. When I glanced over at him from accross the bar, he stops his sketch and goes "oh, finally you are paying attention!" We had no idea that the performers there expected the few people that were there to act like it was a concert or show where everyone needed to be dead silent. If we had been approached by someone who actually worked there to let us know that they require a quiet setting, we would have totally been more understanding. They made such a scene out of us, and all of the staff just seemed to ignore what was happening. We were just sitting there having a quiet conversation and catching up since my friends and I haven't seen each other in months, but apparently we were supposed to be paying full attention to the drunk karaoke they were doing at the front of the bar? What an awful experience that completely humiliated us and ruined our night for no reason. I'm guessing they were so upset because we were one of three groups of people that were there. Clearly nobody wanted to go during this hour the bar was open for this reason - hence why it was completely empty. We ended up leaving with how unprofessional, antagonizing, and disrespectful the random people were treating us just trying to enjoy our meal and drinks in the back of the restaurant. Nobody who worked there was present to sort out this conflict brought upon us. I would go ahead and avoid this bar. read more

Love this place!! Food is yummy, good drinks and decent price. Atticus is the best! Actually the service in general is great. Highly recommend the wings. read more

This place was great!!! My first time here. Took my cousin to dinner for her birthday. The atmosphere (patio) was so pretty. The food and drinks were delicious. But best was the service! We had Atticus who took such great care of us. He even paid attention to the hot sun hitting my back as it went down and kept coming by to lower the shade for me (without me asking!). Once he couldn't roll it any lower, he moved us to another table so I wouldn't have to keep sweating. He brought an extra plate of deliciousness for my cousin since it was her birthday. Again, without us ordering or asking for it. What a treat! He just made the whole experience that much better! Highly recommend and we will be back. Very soon! read more

This place has potential but our service was not good. We went on a Wednesday night, literally we were the only people on the patio and we were there for two and half hours. I repeatedly had to get up and find our waitress or flag down staff. And a few times I could clearly see the waitress looking at her phone, so I know it wasn't because she was busy. But she was very nice. They overcharged us for our wine. There is only 1 option on their menu for each wine, yet we were charged for a more expensive brand. So I would say be advised and check your bill. Charging people for something that's not even on the menu is pretty shady. Now onto the food! Sliders, fries, flatbread pizza and cauliflower were all delicious. Nachos fell flat and were sent back because the cheese was not melted. My tequila drink was very good. I would give this place another try, however I would definitely sit inside at the bar in hopes of getting better service. read more

Great new spot on Ventura ! Really well stocked bar and tapas plates and entrees that will keep a group , date for 2, or solo patrons happy with the menu options / quality. Also great happy hour hour deals (dollar oysters were delicious!) There is a nice patio out back to relax and have a drinks. Will be back to try more items on the menu for sure ! read more

Food and service was awesome. However mainly only outdoor seating which isn't really ideal on a cold night and heaters weren't designed to work that well outdoors read more

While taking the necessary steps with the Covid Guidelines, it is still our favorite place to go and have a meal and delicious cocktail. They were able to create additional seating in the rear parking. A nice tent setup with heaters. Per usual, food did not disappoint. All staff are as nice as can be. A spot we love becoming regulars at. Favorite Cocktail: Emotionally Unavailable Favorite App: Nachos with Steak (just tried them) Favorite Entree: the burger and steak cut fries read more

Super cute spot to meet the girls for drinks! The wait staff are definitely more attentive to the people sitting in the back open area but still very nice. The drinks are strong & the food is great! :) read more

Came back again because the first experience was so incredible. Ordered the oysters and the studio city hush puppies this time. Both were top notch!!!! On a side note - I rarely ever truly enjoy oysters, but these oysters were so fresh and tasty!! I can't wait to come back again. I also enjoyed the cocktails, but order ahead of time as each drink can take some time. Great food, lovely atmosphere...2 for 2! Coming back again for brunch next week!! read more

That back patio is calling my name. Gray Tavern is certainly doing some interesting things with their cocktail menu. All the drinks I've tried have been fresh and delicious, often featuring house-made syrups and infusions. But at the same time, they don't feel over-wrought or overly-complicated. The food is also quite good, and it's a fun place to order a few dishes and share with a partner in culinary crime. Our servers have been kind and attentive, and seem to know the menu inside and out, which is always appreciated. Take full advantage of happy hour, because with tasty-but-pricey drinks like these, your tab can rack up real quick... Drink wisely, friends. And whatever you do, don't miss that patio. read more

This was total surprise what lovely place chef Josh is amazing. Great food surprisingly great. Wine you might not know but pears great with his food. You want great food in your living room. Go to Gray Tavern , but your in restaurant. Have fun full bar read more

So glad I discovered this place around the corner from my house. The service, food, and drinks are always excellent. I've been for brunch and dinner and have always been extremely pleased. Took my dad and stepmom there and they loved it too! read more

Wow! I am so glad I decided to try this restaurant!! Since I'm moving nearby this restaurant in a couple of months, I wanted to find cool new places for brunch and drinks. I decided to sit at the bar and order the weekly special "Cool Shoe Shine" which I later find out was created by my bartender, Sachi. I don't remember exactly what was in it, but it was the perfect amount of sour, sweet, and delicious! Not only were the drinks good, but the food was also delicious! I tried the Breakfast Burrito, which was incredible and also reasonably priced. The person sitting next to me ordered the Fried Chicken and Waffles, and the smell alone made my mouth water. That's definitely what I'm going to try next time! While the main reason you go out to eat is for the food and drinks, the service is what earned this restaurant 5 stars! Sachi was incredibly friendly and helped me decide what to eat and drink. The other hosts and hostesses were laid back in the best possible way, I felt like I could be friends with everyone there. I will definitely be returning, and I'm glad I found this gem of a restaurant! read more
