I really appreciated Linden. The service was great and the waiter actually provided good recommendations. The drinks were well made and left you wanting to order another. The food was the standout. Everything we had was delicious and the portions were a bit larger than we thought. It's a smaller and intimate space, perfect for date night or girls night. I wouldn't recommend large groups over 4, but I believe they could accommodate that. Parking is valet or street, but street parking is so difficult in this area. I would recommend ridesharing if possible. This is a great new-ish LA restaurant and I hope it stays. read more

The food was really tasty. We had the salad , calamari, fries for apps. I had the chicken (smoked). The chef even came out to our table to greet us. The drinks were just as good. I had an espresso martini. The prices are not cheap but the food did not disappoint. This is a nice hidden gem right in LA and there's a speakeasy connected! read more

Excellent ambience, good vibes, great service, but the food wasn't totally worth the price in my opinion

My partner surprised me with dinner at Linden for our 6th anniversary, and I'm so glad she did. She had been here before with her family and loved it, so she wanted me to experience it too and now I understand why. Ambience: From the moment you walk in, the vibe is cozy, welcoming, and sophisticated yet casual. There's gorgeous artwork on the walls, greenery hanging from the ceiling, and warm tones that make the space feel inviting. We went around 6:30 PM, so we caught it in daylight at first, but once the sun went down, the mood shifted to a soft, low-lit, intimate feel. Perfect for date night or a special occasion. Drinks: I started with a gin cocktail made with cucumber, kiwi, and lime. It was refreshing, slightly tart, and perfectly balanced. My partner ordered the Old Fashioned. For her, it was too sweet (and she's a serious old-fashioned lover), but for me? I liked it. Food: We wanted to try a variety, so here's how it went: Yellowtail Crudo (2.5/5): Nicely plated but honestly not worth the price. The portion was tiny and while it tasted fine, I've had better elsewhere. Skip this one. *Duck Fat Fries (5/5): WOW. Worth every penny. Perfectly crisp, flavorful, and addicting. I would've happily ordered another for myself. Don't miss this! Afrobeets (2/5): A fun creative name (Black Eyed Peas hummus, beets, succotash, and tostones), but unfortunately this one fell flat. The flavors didn't really come together and it was on the bland side. I'd skip it next time and try the curry corn rib or calamari instead. *For Goodness Steak (5/5): Absolute perfection. The steak was cooked beautifully, the mashed potatoes were phenomenal, and the spinach was seasoned in a way I've never had before. I'd come back just for this dish. *Mushroom Tagliatelle (5/5): Creamy, rich, and packed with flavor like a cross between pesto and mushroom cream sauce. Comforting, delicious, and unforgettable. Dessert: Peach Cobbler (4/5). This was unlike any peach cobbler I've had before. It came wrapped in a pastry/filo dough, with a puréed peach filling, topped with caramel and a refreshing ice cream that had hints of lemon. Creative, unique, and so good. Next time I'll try the bread pudding, but this was a hit. Service: Our servers were wonderful and attentive without being intrusive. They checked in often, made sure we were comfortable. Linden exceeded my expectations. While not every dish was perfect, the highlights more than made up for it. This is a restaurant worth the hype, whether you're celebrating something special or just want a great meal in a warm, inviting space. I'll definitely be back. read more

Let's begin with the beautiful people serving, beginning with the very friendly Mike outside who greeted us before we went in, to Simone, an ultra helpful and friendly server, to bartender Dom, who knew everything there was to know about the food and the restaurant. He gave us great tips for ordering and boy, was he right! Absolutely fabulous food from first to last bite. My friend and I shared the bread basket, which was a fascinating blend of cultures, I had the linden burger and it absolutely did not disappoint. My friend had the parkway and shared a bite of her duck with me, which melted in my mouth with both texture and taste. It's a place to go for a special occasion--it's not cheap, but it's so worth the splurge! We were there on a Saturday night, so it was very busy, but also seemed to be very happening! I read about it in Westways magazine this month and knew I had to go there because of its multicultural Roots. I would definitely go back! read more

Linden - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Overall this place was a VIBE! When we arrived, our table wasn't ready, so they let us hang out in their speakeasy next door, which was also super chic. The staff were really friendly and made sure to tell us about all the chef's specials for the night. It was funny because I looked up the menu beforehand and still ended up ordering something totally different once I heard the oxtail grilled cheese was one of the specials. It was incredible, probably one of the best grilled cheeses I've ever had in my life haha. We had two cocktails (not pictured) nothing too special, but I'll try a different cocktail or maybe a glass of wine next time. The food comes out as it's ready, so just be prepared for that. Dessert was another highlight, they added a candle and a little charm for a sweet birthday surprise. I'll definitely be visiting again. read more

No lie: This was the best meal I've had all year, from start to finish. The Caesar salad started us off right. Then the duck fat fries were hot and fluffy. My steak was unbelievably tender, served alongside whipped mashed potatoes and seasoned sautéed greens. Everything was balanced perfectly. Ended it with a bit of bread pudding, which I don't usually like, but enjoyed. Lots of menu options to choose from. Food 10/10. read more

The restaurant has a nice vibe when you walk in. Almost all of the dishes we tried were delicious. However, the dishes were very small which made everything extremely overpriced. Ordered the duck fries. You get 6 steak fries with aoli with a little caviar. $19. The Rice over lamb. $42 for 4 small ribs. The sauce was delicious but again very overpriced for what you get. The lobster and crab knuckle sandwich a small roll with barely a handful of lobster and crab. A ridiculous price of $68! Was still hungry & ordered the calamari. Actually a decent portion and was great. Lastly, the bread pudding. Tasted store bought. Very dense and not much flavor. Had a bullet rye old fashioned. Was fine but not for $24. Overall we were underwhelmed. I would not recommend. read more

I had an amazing experience at Linden! The Herb Duck Fries were absolutely incredible -- perfectly crispy, rich in flavor, and seasoned just right. The Lobster Knuckle Sandwich was the star of the meal: tender, buttery lobster with the perfect balance of seasoning, all packed into a soft, delicious roll. Our waiter (I forgot his name) was excellent, friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The staff made sure everything came out fresh as we got a free dessert due to my friend dish coming out late besides that ambience was just impressive stylish, warm, and comfortable. Linden has a modern vibe with a relaxed, upscale feel that makes it perfect for a date night, dinner with friends, or a solo treat-yourself moment. read more

Absolutely terrible service. I am a wheelchair user and they did not even try to help me. And the valet looked so tired and he didn't care enough to accommodate for me. I hadn't even stepped foot inside the restaurant and the security was pushing me out saying there's no space for me. This is very ridiculous and just insane as a disabled girl in a wheelchair. I don't recommend TERRIBLE read more

This location was picked by one of our friends as part of the "Group Dinner Out" we do every other month. The food was great. A bit on the salty side but that might have been the type of food they serve. I like salty food so it didn't bother me too much. The service was good. On the drinks side, we caught them in the middle of changing all beer taps so they didn't have any beer available. It would have gone well with the flavor and the good. But otherwise, it server was great and they cleared plates on a timely manner. The restaurant itself was simple but elegant. Might have been a house before but it works. read more

If you're looking for your next girl dinner spot, stop scrolling and get yourself to Linden. First off, the place itself is beautiful. It is chic, warm, and stylish without trying too hard. On top of that it is Black owned which makes supporting them feel even better. The vibe is perfect for a night out with your friends when you want a mix of good energy and even better food. Now, the drinks? Let's just say they're drankin'. Balanced, flavorful, and strong in the best way possible. Exactly what you want when you're catching up over laughs and fries. Speaking of fries, the duck fat fries are sensational. Crispy, rich, and truly unforgettable. They are worth coming back for on their own. I also had the fried chicken which I think is a secret menu item and oh my god. Perfectly seasoned, juicy inside, crispy outside. It was one of those bites where you immediately look around the table like, "did you all just experience that too?" Linden is one of those rare places that nails it on every level with food, drinks, ambiance, and service. Truly the perfect setting for a girl dinner you'll be talking about long after the plates are cleared. read more

I went here with a group of strangers for a paid event. I ordered the burger. It's $34 and comes with no sides, not even a garnish of something. I asked for medium-well and had only one request to put the slaw on the side. They didn't do that, and the meat was red and bloody in the middle, borderline medium rare, (which for ground beef is not great practice). Our server never checked on us, so I just ate it because I was with new friends and didn't want to cause a fuss. He brought me bottled water without asking if I wanted tap or bottled. I left spending $70 on a single burger, not even that good, not cooked through, with the slaw I didn't want on it - and still hungry. Then I called to ask a question about my credit card charge that evening and left a message. No one ever returned my call. Though the back area was cozy, I won't ever be back. How hard is it to toss a cup of spinach or a handful of fries on a plate with a burger? What is that like 99 cents worth of extra food? This isn't a Michelin restaurant. Put a side with your burger, follow allergy instructions, cook ground meat properly, check on your customers, ask if they want a $20 bottle of water, and return your voicemails. This place needs work and isn't worth the price. There are too many wonderful restaurants that aim to give you real value for your money and night out to ever come back to this spot. And I'll happily drop $200 for a wonderful meal. This was not that. read more

I had a delightful dinner at Linden in Los Angeles with a friend today. We ordered a variety of dishes that truly showcased the restaurant's culinary offerings. The Lobster Frites were beautifully cooked, with tender lobster paired perfectly with crispy fries. The Caesar Salad was fresh and flavorful, a classic done well. The breaking bread and Duck Fat Fries added nice variety and richness to our meal, both beautifully prepared and satisfying. Our server, Darian, was very helpful and attentive throughout our visit, making the experience even more enjoyable. I suggest dining inside and not the patio as it tends to get very loud from the cars driving by read more

I would travel from Seattle specifically to come to this restaurant. Thank you, Linden! read more

One of the best dining experiences I've had in LA. This place is a gem. The decor is inviting, homey yet upscale. The waiter, Fernando, was attentive and charming. We got to meet the chef. They showed us the speak easy and even comped us a drink - since everyone was so happy the Knicks won. And the food was delicious keeping with the decor, down home yet upscale. Standouts for us were the duck fat fries, the burger and the sweet corn agnolotti - which were all exceptional bites. The chef cooks with a lot of love and it shows. read more

Linden delivers a decadent dining experience - skillfully prepared dishes and drinks, upscale ambience, excellent service. You'll get what you pay for - prepare to drop a couple bills. It's in the erstwhile Delancey space, which I remember being bright and open. Linden feels more intimate and sophisticated with table-lamp lighting, dark floral wallpaper, burgundy velvet curtains. We started with two cocktails, the Cherry Street bourbon drink and the Friend or Foe tequila concoction, which was unexpectedly spicy (but both were strong and tasty). We each ordered a "big plate": I selected the Spicy Reggaetoni with lobster and caviar, and my boyfriend ordered the For Goodness Steak NY strip. He was pleased with his perfectly cooked steak, which came with mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach. He wanted to order the bread plate also, but later told me that he deemed it too "fussy" with its cornbread and everything bagel. My 'reggaetoni' was delicious - tender lobster, fresh broccoli and peppers, short rigatoni, and an interesting cajun gumbo-esque roux-based sauce. I wouldn't say the "big plates" are shareable, unless you just want a few bites. My boyfriend easily finished his meal by himself, and though it took me awhile, I finished most of mine, and it didn't feel like I was gorging myself on a giant serving of pasta. Our server asked about allergies even before we ordered, which I appreciated. My anaphylactic peanut/green pea/lentil/chickpea allergy was easily accommodated (no items with peanuts, but I did notice they use green peas in a lot of dishes, if you have comorbid legume allergies). I'm certainly not faulting them for efficiency, but I'd recommend ordering your preferred dinner beverage first, and enjoying a cocktail with or as your dessert. Our entrees came out quickly after our cocktails arrived, and we'd wanted to order wine to complement our meals. (We did, and it also arrived promptly.) Parking in the area is tricky on a weekend night - it seems there's a lot of street parking available, but it's all permit. We used the valet, which apparently charges $20 on Saturday nights. Stylish and classy with superior food and libations, Linden is a great place at which to celebrate a special occasion. read more

People were nice the vibe was nice the food was not. everything is made from scratch but the burners might be too hot for the chicken and some sauces. Wagyu oxtail pasta seemed like the cooking temperature messed with the fat and oils and they started to separate with a distinct smell. Seasoning was light/weak on all the dishes and sauces were mostly garlic butter(?). It's doing too much while doing nothing at all in that kitchen. Very cool story about its founder which makes this review hard to write, but the influences listed should give you pause when ordering food because they don't make it work. read more

I was deeply disappointed with my dining experiences at Linden, and unfortunately, this was my last visit. My husband and I first dined at Linden shortly after its grand opening, and the experience was exceptional. The cocktails, Brussels sprouts, oxtail wagyu pie, duck fat fries, lobster reggaetoni, and overall service were outstanding. Based on that visit, we were excited to return. We came back in February 2025 hoping to relive that experience, but were met with disappointment. The wagyu pie we loved was no longer on the menu, the Brussels sprouts and duck fat fries were burnt, and both the half chicken and fish entrées were underwhelming. To make matters worse, our waitress spilled most of my drink while serving it and did not offer to replace it. We tried to be understanding and assumed it was simply an off night. Our third and final visit on January 2, 2026 was meant to be a last chance--and sadly, it confirmed our concerns. We were running late for our 7:00 pm reservation and called the restaurant around 6:45 pm to notify them we would be about 20 minutes late. There was no option to speak to anyone, so I left a voicemail. Upon arrival, I explained this to the hostess, only to be met with a dismissive and rude response stating no call was received. She abruptly informed us we had two hours to dine and seated us without any warmth or courtesy. This immediately set a negative tone for the evening. After being seated, we waited about 10 minutes before being greeted by a waiter with curly hair whose name began with an "M." He informed us our main server, Simone, was on break and that he would be assisting us in the meantime. The interaction felt rushed and lacked the professionalism and hospitality we experienced on previous visits. No proper introduction, explanation of specials, or welcoming gesture was offered. As the evening continued, we noticed staff attentively checking on surrounding tables while we were left waiting. Even after a complimentary appetizer from the chef, we waited roughly 15 minutes for someone to check on us or take our order. During this time, Simone was visibly moving around the dining room but did not acknowledge our table. When the initial waiter finally returned, he appeared annoyed and rushed us through ordering. At that point, we were informed--again, rudely--that the wagyu pie listed on the menu was unavailable. That was the final straw, and we decided to order only small plates. What made this experience particularly upsetting was observing the same waiter warmly greet and attentively serve a newly seated couple next to us--an African American man and a Caucasian woman--offering them a friendly introduction and explaining the menu and specials, courtesies that were never extended to us. As an African American couple who has spent well over a thousand dollars at this restaurant across multiple visits, this disparity in treatment felt deeply insulting and discriminatory--especially given that Linden is a Black-owned establishment. As for the food, the Caesar wedge was decent, the duck fat fries were noticeably lower in quality than during our first visit, lacking richness and overwhelmed by seasoning, and while the lobster sandwich was good, we chose not to order anything further. I once enthusiastically recommended Linden to friends, family, and coworkers after our first visit. Sadly, I now regret those recommendations and feel obligated to share our honest experience. We left feeling disrespected, disappointed, and deeply let down. read more

Exceptional all around! Fernando's service was wonderful, he was delightful and knowledgeable and recommended the Wagyu pot pie and this might be THE best thing I've ever eaten. Paired with a plantain chutney and oxtail demiglaze, utter perfection. There are only a few made a night and we were lucky enough to try one and it was nothing short of divine! We also had the tempura Brussels sprouts and they were heavenly, perfectly light and crisp but the flavor was outstanding And we couldn't pass up the bread pudding for dessert, absolute 10/10, I could not recommend this restaurant more! Go immediately! Also, the interior design is stunning. Whoever designed this place is a genius read more

Aunque el espacio es reducido, esto solo le añade un toque acogedor al lugar. Para vegetarianos, tiene una variedad de opciones en el menú. Pero lo que realmente roba el show son sus panes artesanales - simplemente imperdibles. No se vayan sin probar la selección de panes de la casa.

The food is phenomenal. Ambiance is real cute for a date night. The only issues i had was the music playing and the pricing. It was like someone just let their Chris brown playlist play the night i went. I don't listen to that abuser and i don't like patronizing establishments that play abusers (r Kelly, CB, etc). The portions were smaller than the photos I've seen on here and our server told our table that we can share everything. That isn't correct. If you visit, get your own meal. The sea bass was $62 and the filet was half of the fish without any sides. Same with the Bama Smoke chicken. It's not even half the chicken and was $58 with a small dollop of Potato puree. The price is a bit high for the amount of food you get but that's just me. Overall, delicious food. read more

I've come here for a private birthday party before and had a limited menu of fried chicken, French fries, and burger which was BOMB! The mocktail I had was delicious (I told the bartender to surprise me so I'm not sure what I had... sorry). After that experience I couldn't wait to come back and try the full menu . And let me tell you, I was not disappointed. Ambiance is sooo cute. Dim lighting but not too dim so you can show off your cute outfit. It's the type of lighting that gives your makeup the perfect glow. The place is small so it feels intimate but not too small where you feel like you are on top of people. We sat inside but there's also a patio out front. The patio is cute and doesn't feel like you are eating on the street. And the background music is jam after jam. They have a valet which cost $20 that takes cash and card for $1 fee. There's some metered parking nearby if you don't mind walking. My sorority sisters and I came to celebrate our sorority's founders day and the staff was so hospitable. Everyone wished us a happy founders day and made us feel welcomed spending our celebration day with them. We all arrived at different times . I was early which never happens! We had drinks at the bar while we waited for everyone to get there so we could be seated together . I had the spicy margarita as a mocktail . Fire!!!! I highly recommend with or without alcohol. I'm sure the alcohol would enhance it for drinkers. It's was spicy and sweet but not overly sweet. Whatever magic the bartenders do behind the bar, they do it well. My two friends had glasses of champagne. They were able to transfer our tab to the table so we didn't have to close out at the bar which was nice to keep the vibe of our dinner going. As far as food, we started with Breaking Bread, Herb Duck Fat Fries, Lemon Pepper Brussel Sprouts. All delicious!!!!! The breaking bread standout was the cornbread with chicken butter. It's like nothing you've ever had before . The lemon pepper brussel sprouts were my favorite thing on the menu. So unique! A must try. I don't eat aoili or mayo so I asked for ketchup with the duck fries . You miss out on the caviar that comes with the aoili but it is still good. The fries smell like duck but taste like a perfectly fried French fry. YUM!!!!! For main courses we had: Bama Smoke, Mushroom Tagliatelle, and Not a pot pie. The bama smoke 10/10. The potato parsnip puree.... I could eat 3 plates of it by itself and the chicken was soooo juicy and flavorful . The mushroom tagliatelle was light and flavorful . The not a pot pie was a mix of sweet and savory that is a full party in your mouth. The oxtail is not oily at all and were well seasoned. We were lucky to get it because they often sell out of it early . The portions are a good sized and we had leftovers to take with us after sharing the mains. Desert: bread pudding! Bread pudding! Bread pudding! It has a meringue on top . But DEFINITELY have it. Make room for it even if you have to take a walk down sunset blvd or wear loose pants whatever works for you. We tried the peach cobbler which has a strong orange taste but the texture of peaches. The food comes out quickly but they don't rush you to finish. This was one of the best dinners that we've had in awhile. We even met the chef and he's a sweetheart . I highly recommend if you're looking for a place to celebrate or have a romantic date night with someone you like. read more

I'd been meaning to check out Linden ever since I'd seen it on the Netflix show, "Forever". We decided to celebrate my partners birthday there last night and I was not disappointed. I think I've found my new fav LA spot! From the moment you walk in, Linden is a vibe! The dim lighting paired with 90s R&B and Neo Soul all night definitely set the mood instantly. The ambiance was impeccable and the staff were all attentive and beautiful. I didn't know what to order so the server made some great recommendations. We ordered the duck fat fries, steak, and lamb. Everything was amazing. I also had a watermelon mezcal drink that was also pretty good. For two drinks, two entrees, and an appetizer, the check came out to about $200. It was well worth it. Linden is the perfect place for a romantic evening, catching up with friends, a celebration, or the perfect place to take out of town visitors. I will definitely be back soon. read more

While I do appreciate the aesthetic and ambiance of the restaurant, the menu seems to be extremely limited. I didn't leave feeling satisfied with my entire experience.

Linden is one of those places that doesn't have to try too hard...it just is. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is effortless. Warm lighting, elegant but not stiff, and a calm energy that makes you want to settle in and stay a while. It's the kind of place that brings New York to mind, but more refined, more relaxed. You don't need to book a flight to feel that vibe, that style, that level of quality. Linden delivers it, just with a smoother touch. Now let's talk food. The bread sampler comes out and already sets the tone. Every piece is solid, but the cornbread (shaped like actual corn, genius!)..it just stole the show for me, soft, a little sweet, just right. And then they bring out this fried chicken butter... listen. That butter changed the game. Spread it on any of the breads, and suddenly you're not just snacking, you're experiencing something. It added depth, warmth, and soul in a way that caught me off guard in the best way. Then came the Caesar salad. I say this with no exaggeration, it's the best one I've had. And I've had them in some of the best restaurants around the world. The flavor, the texture, everything was on point. What really took it there was using the focaccia bread from the sampler as croutons with the Caesar wedges. Simple, but effective. It made the dish feel complete. The burger is thick, juicy, and full of flavor...no frills, just a well executed classic done right. But if you really want something rich, go for the oxtail grilled cheese. It's bold, it's indulgent, and honestly something you'll probably start craving after you've had it once. The duck fat fries...crispy outside, soft inside, and that caviar aioli? That's not just a dipping sauce, it's a final touch that ties it all together. Pair it with the burger or grilled cheese and you'll be glad you did. The Lobster Reggaetoni pasta is one of those dishes that speaks for itself. The scent of scotch bonnet hits you first, subtle but just enough to wake up your senses. The sauce is smooth and flavorful, with the perfect amount of heat to bring balance without overpowering. Big chunks of lobster and a healthy spoonful of caviar on top round it all out. Every bite felt intentional. What really made the night though, beyond the food, was the people. The owner has a cool, grounded presence. He's not just running things, he's connecting with folks. You can tell he cares about your experience and doesn't need to say much to make an impression, he does just that without being too in the mix and I love that level of presence without ego. The staff? They are the first to catch your eye. From the women to the men, all beautiful, attentive, easy to talk to and kept everything flowing naturally. And when you're ready to shift gears, there's a speakeasy tucked in the back with an outdoor patio that sets a whole different mood. It's laid back, grown, private. You can grab a drink, relax, and if that's your vibe, it's even 420-friendly outside. I usually like to end the night somewhere chill after a good meal and Linden had that covered without having to go anywhere else. This spot is a full experience. Elevated food, grown and sexy energy, and a space that lets you unwind. I'll definitely be back and if you're looking for something that feels both fresh and familiar, Linden is the one. read more

This restaurant was chosen to celebrate our anniversary before going to a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. Location is great, cute corner spot right off of Sunset. It's very nice inside with a mix of tables and cozy booths. Reservations are definitely recommended and there is even an option to choose if you are celebrating a special occasion, which we did specify "anniversary". Food was very tasty , service was on point, seriously all 10/10, but they absolutely did not recognize our special day, in fact I had to bring it up as my husband was paying. I knocked them one star for that alone. If someone is choosing to spend a special occasion with an establishment and they go through the trouble to note it, some recognition of said special occasion should take place. read more
