So, for starters, this is my second visit to this fine establishment, with both times coming in for…read morebreakfast. Thus, this review will be based on their breakfast line-up. Most of their sweet items on their breakfast lineup are mostly good, with their French toast and Best Potatoes being my best picks so far. I would recommend The Corner for anyone wanting to take any guests here for dining that--by California standards--does not break the bank when it comes to breakfast. The live music is also a plus, adding in to the atmosphere of this place. However, the first time I came here I was seated to a loudspeaker that was a bit loud for my taste. Service is also good, and were accomodating enough for a good time. Overall, I'd want to come here again just to try the desserts. One caveat is to come here if you check in early morning for a good weekend brunch, around 9-9:30am, which I did during my second visit here, as their peak times are roughly around noon.

Our servers for the evening we're extremely attentive and gave us the lay of the land and let us know what dishes they thought were the best when we asked for recommendations. I have a mustard allergy and they let me know what I could and could not eat and we're very accommodating in letting me dress my salad with just lemon and olive oil instead of the standard vinaigrette it came with. We cannot thank them enough for such a lovely evening and spectacular food. We cannot wait to go back.

The risotto was killer, the wine list is on point, and the service was top notch from start to finish. I live in La Cañada, and this is going to become a regular spot for me. A very intimate industrial setting. You feel like you're involve in the food preparation. The entire experience reminded me of Bestia, which is about the highest compliment I can give. A must-try.

She always came around to see how we were doing and had no issues with guiding first-timers right to our seats. The thematic concepts of each dish and drink were so clever and exquisite. Filet Mignon Sammie and Uncrustables in a lunchbox had so much character. In perfect Castaway fashion, we got a lovely "dinner and a show" when ordering drinks such as Tiffany Prefers Cocktails. And...the view of the cityscape was definitely everything to write home about. This is what we came for. The Green Room highlights the character of LA in so many ways. Loved it!

Waited exactly 20 minutes for two mediocre hot mochas. I've lived here since before this cafe was…read moreestablished and it has never not been at the very least a somewhat disappointing visit. I always wanted to keep giving them a chance because it's not like we have a lot of similar options locally, but this was the last straw for me. The quality doesn't even come close to justifying the price. I could get teenagers to whip me up any crazy drink within minutes at Starbucks, but the simplest order here requires that I've got nothing else going on in my day. And don't get me started on ordering food here. Let's just say last time it was a similar story but no coffee, just a lemon square... that was already made. Also, one of their young male employees seemed to be on break and used the female restroom when the male restroom was free. Just a little strange there. Cute ambience and I like the paintings from local artists they have up, but it isn't a place I'd recommend to anyone. The workers are mostly smiles and friendly demeanors, I just wish they'd be more efficient and thoughtful.

Personally, I think this is one of the best happy hour bars around. Inside, it has a steampunk-y sensibility with rich, dark wood tones & comfy booths. Outside, there's a patio along Honolulu Avenue that's just the spot for people watching. HAPPY HOUR MENU :: - The wings are great. They're perfectly saucy, served with blue cheese or ranch. Pairs well with their Happy Hour Prickly Pear Cider (in a can for $5). - Also, there's Habiscus Cider on draft, which is also sweet and more soda pop-like. It's not on Happy Hour. $9 for a tall glass. - Potato Skins are stacked with toppings and super cheesy. We tried their house Ranch and asked for a side of Bleu Cheese. OTHER NOTABLE FAVES :: - $15 gets you 2 tacos with a side of chips. - Meatloaf Mondays - get a proper meal that sticks to your ribs + a pint for $20. - No wait for a booth. Food & drinks came out quickly. Overall, the service is great. Sorry, kids. This place is 21 and over only.

Despite being so close to a seafood restaurant, I never expected one of my favorite shrimp dishes to come from here. I'm glad I took the chance. The shrimp were tender and full of garlic flavor, and the creamy white wine sauce was rich without being too heavy. The spaghetti was cooked perfectly, and the fresh tomatoes, basil, and Parmesan added just the right balance. The warm French bread was perfect for soaking up every bit of the sauce. This dish completely exceeded my expectations and has earned a permanent spot on my list of favorites. Basin 141 continues to impress with both its consistency and its willingness to surprise.

Because of our schedules, we weren't able to make a reservation and ended up walking in, but we were seated within five minutes. Our server, John (I believe that was his name!), was absolutely superb and truly made the evening feel special. We were able to enjoy the Generous Pour, which was actually my second time doing it and my boyfriend's first. We both started with the wedge salad, followed by the 8 oz. filet with creamed spinach, brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes. I added the Gorgonzola crust to my filet, and it was AMAZING. Everything was delicious, and being able to try the different wines throughout dinner made the experience even more enjoyable. Patrick, the manager, also came over to check on us and was absolutely wonderful. What really stood out to me, though, was the level of service from the entire team. From the hosts, to our server, to the back waiter, to management, every single person we encountered was phenomenal. We felt genuinely welcomed and taken care of throughout the entire evening. This was only my second time dining at The Capital Grille, and the Burbank location completely won me over. When I go out to dine, exceptional service is something I truly appreciate, and they went above and beyond. I really can't put into words how much we appreciated everyone making my boyfriend's birthday dinner feel so special. I cannot recommend this location enough. The food, wine, hospitality, and service were all outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will 100% be back!! No doubt about it!

Green sauce resembles a chimichurri. Pretty good. Frites are crisp outside and starchy and soft inside. Well salted. But the sauce for fries is lacking in flavor. A simple ketchup would have been better. Ambiance is high end restaurant. It's great. Service was slow for us and they forgot the bread basket. We're kind of getting neglected in the side by the window. Overall: dina LA set $25 lunch is great deal.

They also love the chicken fingers, the fries are phenomenal and the chocolate lava cake is a must. As for my husband and I, he says the French dip sandwich is the best he's had in his life. And he is a French dip connoisseur! He's tried all the regular L.A staples--Philippe's, Cole's, etc.... But he says nothing compares to The Proper. Their burger is also wonderful. I've also had several of their fish dishes and have enjoyed them all. And you must try the warm butter cake. I'm normally a chocolate lover, but I dream about the butter cake from The Proper. I'm not a big drinker, but husband loves their Old Fashions and they have a fully stocked bar with lots of specialty cocktails as well. We love sitting in the long booths, which can comfortably fit our party of 2 adults, 2 kids and often 2 grandparents as well. The service is always wonderful and everyone is very friendly. My only complaint about The Proper is that I hate the parking lot. It's very tight and people don't pull up far enough. But that's a small price to pay for this wonderful local gem.

We have been loyal customers for 15 years and have always enjoyed coming here, which is why this experience was especially upsetting. Unfortunately, some of the new faces, particularly Emily, the host, and the general manager, completely changed the experience for us. Emily was rude, unprofessional, and made us feel extremely unwelcome. We expected the general manager to handle the situation with professionalism and respect, but instead, the way it was handled was just as disappointing. After supporting a restaurant for 15 years, you expect to be treated with basic courtesy and appreciation. Sadly, the hospitality we once knew and loved at Black Cow was nowhere to be found. It's unfortunate to see what used to be one of our longtime favorite places change this much. Goodbye, Black Cow. After 15 years, we expected so much better
