    I visited this restaurant during lunch this Dine La event in 2020. I left work early hoping to enjoy a $15 lunch with three small courses. I ordered the French onion soup, bbq flatbread and a red ale. The music was great the view in the middle of the business center was easy on the eyes. I just stared out the door while sipping my beer imaging how crazy their summer rush is... Luckily, i was assisted by a fantastic host, Monique. Her energy was positive, approachable and she gave me what I asked for, a good beer! There was a huge table of nearby business men and women on lunch break laughing and getting the salmon! There was also a couple that ordered gumbo. Monique still helped us all with a smile, accuracy and humor. I will go back!

    Dine LA! I love to take advantage of the DineLA week to check our all the restaurants that I haven't been to. This restaurant is located inside the 1000 Wilshire building, you'll need to pass the harbor cafe and walk all the way to the end of the building for the restaurant section. It's outdoor area, very nice area for half hour! So for $15, you'll get an appetizer and an entree. My choice: crab cake and braised short rib. The crab was good a bit salty but offset well with the little Veggies came with it. The braised short rib however was a bit too heavy for me. Overall, for $15 this is a good deal! I would however pick a lighter option next time

    DINELA Lunch - 15 bucks a person DINELA kind of worth it, definitely not worth it if its regular prices. 1. Crab Cake - Normally like 11-13? You get 2 meatball size crab cakes. Tiny.. I thought they usually serve this one a little flatter. 2. Steak - Looks about 4.5 OZ. Ginger soy sauce was good :D normally like 15+ Its A-OK for DINELA, but I would not go for their regular prices when Oleego is directly across the street at a fraction of the price.

    Solid rooftop with good views of sunset. I came for a Grammys weekend sponsored event. Good space, large and seems very well suited to rent it out, or at least a portion for an event.

    I came for DineLA and to take my assistant out to a well-deserved dinner out. This place is all the outdoor dining. I didn't get that from the DineLA description and the brief Yelp reviews I perused. But yes, it's all outside. It's in a big office building and you can park in the garage ($7 after 6) or street parking, which I lucked out on finding. They appear to be a bit under-staffed. We had a gentleman take our order but took a long time to get drinks and finally a young lady appeared to help. But she was being "directed" constantly by the manager. Including in front of her tables. We felt bad for her. She was doing a really good job. But she was constantly being... let's just say... "re-directed". When she approached a table her manager seemed to intervene. I understand that I'm a bit of a knee-jerk on the feminism issues but my assistant isn't. And we both felt uncomfortable with this. The food was just OK. We did the DineLa menu and we both started with the crab cakes... not outstanding and I had a piece of shell in mine. But OK. For mains we went with the gnocchi (her) and the scallops and risotto (me). I thought her gnocchi was beautiful but she thought it was way too doughy. She sent it back. Ordered the roasted chicken. My scallops were fine but the risotto was just really sticky rice - not risotto. Still not bad. They were out of the bread pudding option for dessert so we had to do the chocolate dessert. Which was fine - basically a dense brownie. I didn't love the atmosphere, the outdoor dining and the kind of weird vibe we got from what felt like a "boys rule" style of management. Not for me.

    DineLA: Let's just go to Harbor House since they have a $15 lunch menu and crab cakes sound good! So for $15, my classmate ordered the lemongrass beef salad and the pan roasted salmon and I ordered the crab cakes and all natural flat iron. Pan Roasted Salmon. Salsify, summer squash and corn succotash, sugar snap peas, espellette, red chili, conserva, tumeric garlic cream. The salmon was a popular order from many guests, according to our waiter. It was very tender and moist. The turmeric garlic cream sauce was what made the dish! It was delicious with a spicy kick! All Natural Flat Iron. Garlic soy marinated steak, watercress, slow roasted tomato, charred petit onions, buttered rice, citrus chili garlic sauce. I was disappointed in the flat iron steak. I thought it would be in one huge piece instead of in smaller pieces on top of rice. Reminds me of a typical Asian dish. The chili garlic sauce that came with the dish (which I poured over the rice) reminds me of a Vietnamese dish.. Pros: -very friendly and hip service -majority of the restaurant is the outdoor patio. At night there are lights strung and the ambience is completely different! -nice bar area -located on a very visible corner. Part of a hotel -it's all about the outdoor patio Cons: -parking is so hard to find /food was just mediocre. Maybe they have better drinks Tip: We parked at FigAt7th because the parking rates there are most cheap! Just buy something at Target (inside the same plaza) to get validation and you get $1 for the first hour and $2.50 for the second hour. Then walk across the street. Easy! This is my new go-to parking spot in that area of DTLA now..

    Got a few things from here for lunch. Sandwich stuff mostly. Its ok . Taste is fine, but for $13+. Throw in a side or something. Ive heard from others that the same dish when you eat in comes with a side so thats weird. Also had a few of the pre packed sandwiches in the cooler and they were ok not great probably wouldn't get again. Wanted to get a breakfast burrito but after adding chicken was almost$10. Ouch no thx. Need to try some dinner items one day. Had lunch on the patio and the food was good. Service was good, cost was normal for downtown restaurants.

    First off, the name, Harbor House must've been pulled out of someone's arse, because it's neither no where near a harbor and not a house. It is actually, in a corporate bank building and is located directly east of the 110 freeway. The very cool thing about HH is that it offers not only indoor seating, but is dominated by a huge amount of tables under umbrellas on a patio that overlooks parts of DTLA. Not only do they offer patio seating, but super comfy couches are available. This makes a great place to relax and unwind. However, because the couches don't necessarily go with that tables, eating can be a challenge. The couches are more for drinking and relaxing. TVs are located inside. And there are lights outside. I'm not sure if there is any music on the patio. I really hope there is. The food we ordered, burgers, chicken kale salad, chips and guacamole just to name a few were good. Service was also good. HH would be a great place for a hidden gem for Happy Hour.

    Seared swordfish

    I came here with a friend because we wanted to check out the dineLA menu!! I had read some negative reviews on Yelp so I was a little concerned, but we had an amazing visit with good food and great service. We did not make a reservation but stopped by at 5:30 on a Wednesday, so they were able to seat us right away. We ordered the prix fixe through dineLA, which comes with an appetizer, entree, and dessert. I ordered the foie gras toast, seared swordfish with tatsoi, potatoes, and shiitake, and the bread pudding. They were all delicious. The appetizer and the dessert were on the smaller side, but all together it was a filling meal and quite tasty! The servers were also very attentive and welcoming and brought our food promptly to us. The restaurant has a great patio view of DTLA, so dinner came with a lovely atmosphere.

    I stopped by Harbor House last Friday to meet a friend for happy hour. HH is on a terrace overlooking 7th Street. Reservations are welcome but I just walked in and was seated immediately. They have good happy hour deals on beer, wine, cocktails and bites. I had seen their Instagram so I was already eyeing their "1000 burger" and on happy hour, you get the burger, fries, side salad and a beer for $15! Such a great deal! The burger patty was thick, covered with melted cheddar cheese and their special sauce. It was good. Other items on their menu caught my attention, like the ceviche, so I'll definitely be returning to try more.

    Lobster bisque sans toast
    Thuy Tien L.

    We came for Dine LA 2019 and were pleasantly surprised after having read the reviews for Dine LA 2018! They must've listened because we had a pretty good experience! Harbor House is a restaurant located at the bottom patio of a corporate building. We were seated by Joey, a friendly host and got a choice of table with more or less sun. We came around 5:45pm so there were lots of workers leaving the building and passing through the restaurant throughout our time at Harbor House. There was a birthday celebration going on at the bar and there was a DJ. Not sure if the DJ is a normal thing on Friday nights, but we loved the tunes and it really elevated our dinner! The glasses are left on the table and I think they would really benefit by placing them upside down on napkins rather than cup up to collect dust or particles in the air. We got the beef sashimi and the lobster bisque. The toast was forgotten but we did get it after an inquiry. The bisque was okay. Seafoody tomatoey but it would've been really good with chunks of lobster. The beef sashimi had more sour and vinegar notes rather than soy sauce but I enjoyed that. For our entrees we got the scallops with risotto and the halibut. The scallops were seared nicely and had a tad bit more salt than I expected. Paired with the risotto, it was fine. The peas were undercooked but it added a nice crunch. I got tired of the risotto quickly, but the scallops were the highlight. My favorite dish overall was the halibut. It was perfectly cooked and I think the dish worked much more holistically with the roasted vegetables, gratin, garlic, and sauce. Definitely get this dish! We tried both of their desserts. They make them in house. The cheesecake has a nice caramel (?) layer between the bottom and the cream that made this the favored dessert. The tiramisu was just okay in our eyes. Too much cream and not enough espresso soaked ladyfingers. We were full by the end of the courses and had a good time! Thanks Dine LA and Harbor House!

    This was not my first time here but this is definitely the worst. I have gotten the same order everything time, the Nashville Hot Fried Chicken ($13). I came with a couple of coworkers today and it looked like they split 2 normal sized chicken patties between all of us. Not sure if you could see it in the picture but they definitely cut the chicken patty after frying it. Every time besides this lunch, Harbor House has been bearable (pricey but somewhat filling). But this time I just need to get a second lunch. If you're looking for chicken sandwiches, chick fil a is just down the street. Save yourself some money and go somewhere else. Pickles they had were bomb tho. I never liked pickles anywhere else except for this place. 10/10 would recommend. If you're not here for the pickles don't come.

    Wow! Came across this restaurant scrolling through DineLA's options- super happy I did. Upon walking in we were greeted by a gentleman who was very personable. Our server was great as well- I always ask for recommendations and she was great. We stuck to the DineLA menu and everything was super tasty. My boyfriend and I both got the seared beef sashimi, and my friend got the dates for our appetizers. The seared beef was delicious. My friend is a sucker for dates and she really enjoyed them. Next, we had the short ribs and 8oz steak. The spare ribs melted in our mouthes. My boyfriend had the steak. It was delish! I mean, you can't go wrong with yummy butter on top, right?! Lastly, we had our dessert. The boyfriend and I both had the cheesecake and my friend had the tiramisu. We weren't disappointed! Throughout our dinner, both Joey, the manager and our server checked on us. Joey definitely puts the IT in sh*t! He was AWESOME! He took time out of his busy night, say and had a quick chat! As the night went on it got a bit chilly and he was quick to bring us cozy blankets. Overall, this place was great! We will definitely be going back to try out the regular menu (everything sounded good) and to visit with Joey!

We couldn't be seated right away given that we were late, and the wait ended being an extra 15 minutes longer for our party of 7. They really made it work for us, so we were very appreciative. Parking: Our group split up between $8 and $10 nearby lots for the whole day. All within a 5 minute walk away. Location: Right across the street from the Original LA Flower Market warehouse. Fun activity to do after eating. Also had a bunch of other flower and plant shops nearby. Restrooms: Shared with the Flower Market. Clean, and no need for a code. Just push the door. Food: Last but not least - scrumptious food! Plating is beautiful, and food was very satisfying. I got the chicken + waffles, and it was delicious with the honey and butter glaze. If you're looking for more leafy greens, I also highly recommend the Fried Chicken Egg Benedict.

They focus way too much on what the food or reels look like and forget that they still need to serve the customer. The service was slow. Our server, Brea, treated us like a large group (which meant an automatic 20% gratuity), but she didn't take all of our orders at the same time. Instead, she made us wait as if we were separate tables. She took the orders from two sections of our group and then just left. We thought she was simply putting menus away and would come right back. Nope. She cleaned other tables, cashed out another table, and we eventually had to wave her down just to place the rest of our order. The food was good, but not good enough to overlook the service. I ordered the Shrimp and Grits. The first few bites were delicious, but after a while the grits became a little too salty for my liking. Overall, I'm glad I tried it at least once. My husband ordered the Waffle Chicken Sandwich, which was really good. The sauce tasted similar to buffalo sauce, and it paired well with the sweetness of the waffle. Unfortunately, the wait for our checks was just as bad. Our server would make eye contact with us and then continue doing other things. It was ridiculous how little she checked on us after taking our order. The tables and chairs were already uncomfortable, so having to sit there even longer waiting to pay was frustrating. The only reason this is a 3-star review and not lower is because the food was really good and well seasoned. I would not come back again. Javier was the one who finally helped us pay our check and get out of there. I wish we could have removed the automatic 20% gratuity based on the service we received, but at that point it was what it was.

The second-level seating was directly in the sun, and by the end of our meal all three of us had gotten sunburned. We had to repeatedly ask for basic items such as menus and silverware. We were responsible for ordering our own drinks, and when we wanted dessert, we had to search for someone to help us. Not once during our visit did a staff member come to our table to check on us, ask if we needed anything, or see how our meal was. To make matters worse, our dirty plates sat on the table throughout much of the meal and were never promptly cleared. For the amount we paid, the level of service was completely unacceptable. We essentially received the service level of a fast-food restaurant while paying premium restaurant prices. What should have been a special Father's Day celebration turned into a frustrating and disappointing experience. We left feeling let down and unlikely to return.

My friend just flew in for a day because his relative had forgot her passport and needed to travel to Korea, so we stopped here.

While here, they ordered a salad with cherries and pecans that was pretty amazing. I think that may have been one of the better salads I've eaten. In addition to that, a cucumber burrata salad was ordered, and that was made well too. When my venison burger arrived, I took a few bites and it had the exact flavor I was hoping for and I thought the burger was done extremely well. My friend also ordered a pork chop, and it was an amazing cut, cooked perfectly, tender, juicy and everything you could ever want in a bone in pork chop. They also cut the entire piece for you and scraped every last bit off of the bone too. The service is really attentive. They come by your table a lot to ensure you have everything you need. The ambiance is a bit dim in lighting which sets a nice mood. And the place just happens to be dog friendly too. Sorry for the lack of photos, but I didn't wanna intrude on everyone else's meals.

    ​ An Absolute Masterpiece of a Lunch!…read more ​My friend was visiting from New York, and I wanted to take her somewhere truly special for lunch. Since it was our first time at République, we didn't quite know what to expect, but we were completely blown away! From the atmosphere to the service and, of course, the food--everything was flawless. ​The Main Event ​Blueberry Pancake: My friend ordered this, and it was huge and incredibly delicious. A total crowd-pleaser. ​Filipino Pork Belly Adobo: I ordered this and was so impressed by how rich and deeply flavorful it was. Absolutely delicious. ​World-Class Service & Hospitality ​The service here is incredibly efficient, but what really made our day was the staff. Rambo took care of us and he was fantastic--so pleasant, attentive, and proactive with everything we needed. ​We also had the absolute pleasure of meeting the owner! It was so impressive to see her on the floor working just as hard as the rest of the team. She was incredibly nice and you can tell she truly cares; we watched her personally ensure the quality of the dishes was on point before they ever left the kitchen. That level of dedication explains why this place is so successful. ​Do Not Skip Dessert! ​Before you leave, you must hit the pastry counter. We grabbed a few things to try, and they were sinfully good: ​Kouign-Amann: Flaky, caramelized perfection. ​Basque Cheesecake: Rich, creamy, and beautifully baked. ​Chewy Chocolate Cookie: Perfectly textured and decadent. ​We had such a beautiful experience here. République lived up to the hype and then some. We will definitely be back, and we're bringing our friends and family next time!

    I had my rehearsal dinner here last week and all in all it was a WONDERFUL experience…read more We reserved the kitchen area for 32 guests with a set menu served family style. The food was INCREDIBLE and I was SO pleasantly surprised by how much food there was! We ended up with soooooo many leftovers! Family style meals always make me a little nervous, but the portions were plentiful and all of our guests left completely stuffed. The bread and butter was a standout, as well as the corn puff pastry appetizer (I can't remember exactly what it was called!). The steak and chicken main courses were to die for and the strawberry tiramasu was incredible. I could go on and on about the food. It really exceeded our expectations. Jared, our server was WONDERFUL. He was so attentive and on top of things. He communicated with my husband and I whenever he needed to and made our entire dinner so seamless and fun. The only downside to the experience was in planning the evening. I struggled a bit when it came to communicating with Sandra in the days/weeks leading up to our dinner. I didn't feel like we were a priority and often had to call or email multiple times to get a response. I found that to be very frustrating, especially because it was such an important part of our wedding and in the days leading up to getting married, the last thing I wanted to be doing was waiting on an email from the restaurant or hunting down a response about our beverage menu. I was also really bummed to see that when we got to the restaurant, our dinner menu had the wrong date printed on it. I wanted to bring one of the menus home as a keepsake, but it felt pointless when I saw the typo. There were also drinks on the beverage menu that we had never discussed, which was another disappointment. It ultimately didn't ruin our overall experience, but I think it's worth noting for other people planning larger dinner parties at Republique because I do wish a little more care had been taken on the restaurant's end while planning our dinner.
