This is a vibe and great for a date night. The service was great and they actually have parking, which is rare for this part of town. It's valet but plenty of street parking too. Plus $1/hr and free after 6pm wins in my book for the street parking with meters that take both card and coins. For the food, everything was tasty although the veggies were on the salty end for me. The favorite for me was the ricotta toast that was well balanced. And surprisingly the toffee date cake was amazing and our table's overall cave since it wasn't overly sweet plus the date flavor is so nice in this. Only thing if I had to find a negative was there were only two bathrooms and it always seemed to have a line even when everyone at our table went at different times, hah. read more

What's not to like? The long wait. The possibility of not being able to get a resy cuz they are booked solid. Thats it. Everything else about Hatchet Hall is 5 star across the board for me. Service was attentive and timely. Ambiance was warm and inviting with soft lighting. And the food... now you have to LIKE meat, potatoes, veggies and bread... and everything I have had was excellent. Be careful... there aren't any wheelbarrows to roll you out of there and it's easy to over eat. Absolutely fabulous. Must have the cornbread. read more

Hatchet Hall has delicious food, a beautiful setting, and excellent service! One of my favorite restaurants in Los Angeles.

Solid place for brunch! I've been here for dinner and I think their brunch menu is actually better than the dinner menu. I ordered the hash and it was perfectly cooked with a crispy hash brown and corned beef on top. Only con to this place is that they're really weird about food modifications. I wanted to remove the drizzle on top of the hash since I'm lactose intolerant and they said the kitchen staff has a strict rule against any modifications. A bit strange since it's just a drizzle that is put on at the end. Would be such a simple thing to just not drizzle haha. read more

Hatchet Hall delivered on both food and vibes. Everything we ordered was great, but the cornbread was the absolute standout -- a must-try (honestly don't skip it). We sat at the bar and had a great experience -- the bartender was friendly, welcoming, and added to the overall good energy of the place. Solid spot for good food and vibes. read more

The cornbread is amazing, but it goes downhill quickly there after. The salad was drenched in a horrid sauce with a terrible over-saturated vineager aftertaste. Also, who though it was a good idea to smear a ketchup like sauce all over my mashed potatoes? Like WHY!? read more

I love the Hatchet Hall! The food is delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The service was just super amazing and so welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect. They truly went above and beyond to make my visit enjoyable. Expensive, but great food and have seasonal items like their apricot butter. read more

Checked this one off the list finally. So glad we made the trek here from OC. The service food ambiance was perfect. We tried a bunch of dishes and other than the braised ribs and ricotta toast we loved it! My fave shrimp and grits cast iron corn bread hamachi ceviche loaded potato gnocchi and the little gem Caesar! For cocktails the gold rush always may go to and on point. Desserts were amazing. The banana pudding and toffee sticky cake were just perfection read more

The cornbread speaks for itself, the servers are friendly, informative and quick! The ambiance is easy going and chic in its own way. If you are looking to split a bottle of wine and share some food, this is the place read more

Went again for dinner. Vibes were moody and nice. Great for a date night. Cocktails were delicious. Service was slow but they were busy. Cornbread was the best item! We also got the steak which was cooked well. The rest of the sides (roasted carrots, chickory salad and pickle plate) were just average - nothing great but also not bad. read more

From the moment you walk in, Hatchet Hall strikes a perfect balance between warmth and sophistication.  The gracious hosts were welcoming and friendly.  The decor is thoughtfully curated furniture and tableware that make the space feel inviting.  Our server was courteous and friendly and genuinely seemed interested in us having a great experience.  The food easily lives up to the atmosphere and each dish is beautifully presented and packed with flavor, clearly crafted with care, especially the cornbread!  Hatchet Hall is a place where both the setting and the cuisine elevate the entire experience.  Ever since I was introduced to this restaurant I have recommended it to and taken my friends and family. I highly recommended Hatchet Hall! read more

I came here for the first time for a birthday lunch and Hatchet Hall did not disappoint. I heard that their cornbread is the best and it really is! It was absolutely delicious and definitely worth trying. Next, I had the crab enchiladas and they were so good! I've never had enchiladas made like that before and the ricotta added such a nice, creamy twist. I also tried the catfish sando with fries and it was fried perfectly. Super crispy on the outside, which I enjoyed. For my drink, I got the Harvest Moon cocktail. The flavor was great, but I think it had a little too much ice for me. Overall, the vibe, the service, and the food were all great. I'd definitely come back and try more dishes next time! read more

Hatchet Hall is a top notch restaurant with exquisite flavors, a beautiful interior, and great service. We ordered the cornbread, a given if you're dining here. It was divine and I liked it the longer it sat, when the flavors of the shishito pepper, honey, and butter were at the forefront. We also had the short rib hash which was delicious. The short rib was delicate, potatoes were soft, the dish had bits of onion, garlic, and tomato jam which were perfect when mixed with the perfectly poached egg. The summer peach salad was a nice touch and cut through the heaviness. The peaches were sweet and ripe, goat cheese and bits of toasted pecans were tasty and combined with the tangy vinaigrette and greens. The coffee and freshly squeezed juice hit the spot and we could've sat there all day looking at the design of the restaurant. The waiters were incredible, attentive, friendly, professional, and knew the menu. read more

Cornbread. End of story. Just try it and thank me later. Forget about calories- if you think about calories while you're eating it, you'll just be sad. Jokes aside, the cornbread is one of the best dishes I've had in LA. I dream about it. The other food I tried was 3 or 4 out of 5 but the cornbread is 100/5. read more

Beautiful restaurant with great vibes. Staffs are super friendly and attentive. We sat outside and the decor was so nice and welcoming for dinner. This would be a perfect date spot! Food is great! The corn bread is a MUST- it does have jalapeño in them so has a bit of a kick to it (not too spicy tho). Scallops with corns are amazing!! Pork chop is also great. We also got a side of mushrooms. Loveeeeed everything. read more

You come for the cornbread (rightfully so), but don't sleep on the vegetables. The mushrooms, snap peas, and broccolini were next-level--honestly some of the best I've had anywhere. The green fried tomatoes (not pictured) were devoured in seconds. The proteins were solid--well-prepared and flavorful--but it was the sides and seasonal veggies that stole the show. Banana pudding was better than blueberry tart. Good, not amazing desserts. All in all, this was hands down one of the best meals I've had this year. read more

I liked the ambiance -- felt intimate. The service was good -- everyone was very attentive and they changed out our place settings multiple times. They gave us free prosseco for my boyfriend's birthday right when we were seated, which was nice of them. Even though the cornbread was the first dish to come out, it was definitely the star of the show! The dry-aged ribeye was good, but pricey for what it was. I'd be interested in trying the other meats next time. The brussel sprouts had a lot of vinaigrette on them, but I prefer my brussel sprouts crispy. The portion of the little gem salad was bigger than expected and had real anchovies on top -- just wish the salad was a little less sour though. The hush puppies were alright. The cookies were chewy and would've been so good with milk. read more

4.5/5 Delicious dinner! We got the steak, cornbread, carrots, branzino, gnocchi, the bitter greens (?) salad, and banana pudding. Everything was DELICIOUS. The gnocchi they were able to do without bacon for us, and we liked it so much we ordered it again. Branzino was soft and flaky and the steak was perfect. We also ordered the rolls and fries, but those were whatever. Don't recommend! We told them it was my husband's birthday and they were going to bring us sparkling wine. When we told them we don't drink they didn't bring us anything else to celebrate :/ but other than that, our server was amazing and the ambience was lovely. Food came out pretty timely too. Would go back! read more

Hatchet Hall - Steak, carrots, branzino, potato gnocchi - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've tried a large assortment of items from here so I can confidently say it's a hit or miss. It's a cute, rustic ambience, a little different than the stereotypical fine dining LA scene. It matches the southern food. If you come here, do order the branzino (my favorite), strawberry salad, ceviche, shrimp and grits. The cornbread is also good but on the heavier side and a smidge overrated. Desserts might be my favorite part here - particularly the toffee date cake (must order!) and the banana pudding. You can pass on the deviled eggs (overly salty), baked oysters, short rib. read more

So we came here to experience Michelin dining for an anniversary. The restaurant is beautiful! They've a beautifully decorated outdoor patio, along with inside dining, which is just as gorgeous! There's a little speakeasy attached to this restaurant called the Old Man Bar, which is really neat. Generally, staff were polite, although our server was a bit stuffy. We ordered the house jalapeño cornbread with honey butter, grilled half chicken with pan roasted broccolini, meatloaf with mashed potatoes and roasted Brussel sprouts. The veggies were so flavorful so we were confused that the meat entrees left a little to be desired. Neither meat dish wow'd us. They are known for their signature cornbread appetizer and that was delicious. Out the door dinner was over $180+. We're sure we won't come here again. To pay a pretty penny and not be completely satisfied with the food left us feeling meh. read more

We came to Hatchet Hall with a large group of 8 people, and had a really nice outdoor table. The weather is really starting to get warm, and it was the perfect time to eat under a light heat lamp. The food was all super good, and its family style so you get to choose a ton of different options and just share everything with the table. It is definitely on the pricey side, so we really only make it here for special occasions. The staff is super helpful and courteous, and put up with us bringing a 3 year old as well as an infant. No complaints. I only snapped 3 photos of the food because we dug in too quickly. I would highly recommend having a date night here! read more

I don't often feel the need to go to a restaurant over and over again since there are always new ones to try, but I never seem to get tired of the food at Hatchet Hall! Even a simple green salad is so amazing and flavorful here. The cornbread and the loaded potato gnocchi are both indulgent but a must try. And the fried green tomatoes, don't even get me started! The dish is not even something I'd usually think to order but it is truly outstanding here. The restaurant has been around for a long time and is always crowded - it's not hard to understand why! read more

The food and service were very good, but the attitudes about no changes and having to order all food at once (ie we couldn't put a salad order in first) were very off-putting. Honestly if I knew the restaurant had a "no modifications or substitutions" policy, I would not have made a reservation there, even though I didn't actually want or need any for what we ordered. That type of policy is pretentious and rude. Also it was SUPER loud. They could benefit from some sound insulation. read more

been on the list to try forever and finally got a reservation to celebrate our anniversary. they gave us each a glass of wine on the house to celebrate. this is a place i'd only come back to with a large group since they have a seasonal menu (we had the fall 2025 menu) and i'd be interested in trying more plates. as a couple, we don't have the stomaches to order everything to try lol deviled eggs - yum! king trumpet mushrooms - favorite dish pork chop - simple but wouldn't order again cornbread - didn't realize it was savory, would order again choc chip cookies w buttermilk ice cream - not bad, went with buttermilk to be adventurous but flavor was a littke too tangy, don't need to order again read more

I came here for Father's Day at 2 PM, and was surprised to see that it was still brunch. I was a bit dissapointed that there was no lunch menu. They were still serving egg plates. I didn't let that get us down, but I wish I would have known. Also, I did not realize they in fact closed at 2:30. They reopen at 5 PM for dinner and that's when the menu changes. Either way, we proceeded to try the different menu items available. One of the apps we ordered was the cornbread. Please keep in mind that I hate cornbread. I was in LOVE with their cornbread and we had contemplated ordering another one. I still remember it's flavor. It was sweet but not overly sweet and has a great texture. I HIGHLY recommend trying it. We also ordered the smoked trout dip which I wasn't a huge fan of. The portion on that was quite small and the flavor was lackluster. Next app we tried was the Hamachi Ceviche which was tasty and better portion size!! When it came to the drinks, I ordered a Espresso Martini with tequila and did not like it. I would definitely try another cocktail next time I go because I heard they are great. As to the actual meals, luckily there was a burger on the brunch menu, so I just l ordered that because I did not want breakfast food. The burger was BOMB and I loved the onion jam. The fries were a game changer and the ketchup tasted fresh. Unfortunately, one of our friends did not like onions and asked if he could change it and was told they do not do modifications to the food. That is good to know before you go. Another one of our party ordered the Short Rib Hash and he absolutely killed his plate - no crumbs were left behind. I was so happy that all of us loved our meal. Especially when it started off with a surprise of not knowing that it was actually brunch. The inside of the restaurant is so cute and has a beautiful bar. The restaurant itself is clean, hosts are friendly, and bathrooms are also clean. Parking was street parking only, but I saw they have some sort of valet parking? Not sure. I would definitely return and I will give this place a 4.5/5. read more

Hatchet Hall - Burger - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Not a place we would go back to. Our food was brought out separately, and very slowly. First guest was nearly done by the time the last guest received their food. One guest ordered a hamburger and there was a hair in it. Yuck!!! Oh, and don't bother asking for your bacon well done. They do no "modifications." Really??? You can keep your bacon and your disgusting hamburger. You won't see us again. read more

Poor service. Went for brunch and was seated for 20 minutes and no one came over, we had flag down someone. When someone finally came to take the order, no apologies, just matter of fact asking what we want and swiftly left. Meanwhile we see a couple other servers having long and enthusiastic conversations at other tables so not sure why our table got left out. Again, at the end of checking out, no one apologized or mentioned anything. Food was ok but would never return back due to the poor service. read more

Jess at the bar was an absolute sweetheart and made our dining experience truly exceptional. We ordered the cornbread (duh), Caesar salad, and meatloaf + mash. All so good, each the ideal imagination of their form. The Caesar was zingy with plenty of parm and a generous portion for the price. There's nothing more to say about the cornbread that hasn't already been said -- you must order regardless of circumstances, diets and table preferences be damned. Meatloaf was excellent and went well with the mash, the bbq sauce was nice and did not overwhelm the dish though the portion of the meatloaf was on the smaller side but with everything else we ordered, it didn't matter. Quietly one of the best bar programs in the city and one of my favorite restaurants to venture to the westside for. No dish is a miss and it's always worth trying out their seasonal options. read more

Phenomenal experience from the very beginning. We came in for my wife's birthday on a Tuesday evening. We had made a reservation the day before and the host was very accommodating with our requests. Since this was our first time we decided on quite the spread, baked oysters, catfish bites, fried green tomatoes, meatloaf and half chicken entrees. The appetizers came out fairly quickly but the entrees took a bit longer than expected. Also keep in kind that the cornbread takes a longer amount of time to be prepared however this information was given to us before ordering. The food was all delicious and had some great southern inspired flavors with some notable twists to keep it all interesting. The only drawback of this place is the parking. While they offer valet services, the neighboring streets restrict street parking for non-permit holders. So please keep that in mind. A great experience highlighted by great service, atmosphere and above all amazing food. read more

What a surprise and what fantastic food. We had a fantastic dinner here, flavors were strong, menu had something for everyone and the cornbread was amazing. The restaurant is pretty large, indoor and outdoor seating. Service is casual and friendly, will definitely be back. Recommend 100% read more

Service is terrible. The male server was rude. Food is just ok. It is way better to dine in Laurel Grill.

The ambience was relaxing and cozy like a lodge in the mountain during snow season. Love the cleanliness of the bar, spaciousness of the restaurant, the attitude of the staff, very upbeat. The drinks were absolutely delicious and our bartender Jim was friendly and fun to joke with. I'd highly recommend this establishment for a hang with friends or family gathering, there's something for everyone on the menu. read more

The food at this restaurant is excellent. GOOD food doesn't come cheap so the bill can really add up. The one thing I would've liked it was explained to me that the broccolini and some of the dishes have some spice that we were not ready for. The short ribs are phenomenal and the meatloaf is excellent. Overall, this is an excellent place to have a nice meal! Good food is not cheap so be ready. read more

Fantastic Southern influenced restaurant in the area! Their cornbread is INCREDIBLE. Worth coming and sharing a number of their entrees and fantastic cocktail selection. But what makes this place stand apart is also how incredible they can make a vegetable. Typically an after thought for fantastic meals, vegetables here are consistently done right. Often seasonal, Hatchet Hall keeps me coming back. Good service, neat ambiance with patio and indoor seating and one of my favorite speak easies the old man bar is there too for a night cap! read more
