They found us a seat w/o a proper reservation, and the place was lively. Ordered the hummingbird, which was unexpectedly herbaceous. Tangy with smoky undertones. Refreshing. I quite enjoyed it. The husband got the bellhop, which he said was fine but not mind blowing. We ordered the Chicken liver toast, fried mozzarella, and chicken sandwich hot and spicy. The husband got the mussels. Chicken liver toast was served w mustard seed and berry compote, which highlighted the buttery fatness. The toast wasn't crunchy and a bit difficult to cut, but the pickled vegetables were fantastic. The fried mozzarella was simple and decently executed, somewhat generic and forgettable. Better than standard mozzarella sticks. The fries were crisp and perfectly seasoned. A+. That chicken sandwich was toothsome and juicy. Def worthy of a repeat visit. I'll be thinking abt this sandwich for a while. Of his mussels, the husband appreciated the spicy broth but was underwhelmed by the crusty bread it accompanied. I had a wonderful experience personally, hence the 4 stars, but proceed with caution.

(+) CHEROKEE TOMATO CAESAR (+) SLICED CHEROKEE TOMATOES…read more(+) BEEF RIBEYE Dunsmoor is a trendy LA restaurant right now. Reservations are hard to come by but done through Open Table. Parking is available on the street, or valet for $15. Order one main entree and 3-4 appetizers/sides for two people. Even after that , we had leftovers. Great selection of wines available. Food: The meal is rich. My favorite is their Cherokee tomatoes. Plump, sweet and juicy. The tomato Caesar isn't your typical salad. It is a slice of tomato topped with dressing, basil, breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese. One of my favorites this meal for its creativity and blend of flavors. Beef rib eye (32oz) is a lot for two people. Comes with bone marrow and sea salt to sprinkle on. Great char and flavor making it a good staple. The cornbread and cheddar & chive potatoes were ordinary. Nothing special. Loved the jalapeno addition to the cornbread. Service/Ambiance: Service is serviceable. Servers are friendly as expected with an establishment as this. Ambiance is bright and lively. Plenty of natural light. There are kitchen bar seats you can sit at where you can watch the kitchen staff cook, literally. Overall, a great tasting meal. It met my high expectations. Lots of oil and butter, so be prepared for a rich meal. Well done in my book. One of the top 10 best restaurants in terms of food and quality.

Dunsmoor (Glassell Park) Review…read more Overall: 4/5 Ambience: 4/5 The restaurant has a great atmosphere, but it was extremely loud and very crowded inside. It made it a little difficult to relax and have a conversation. Service: 3/5 The staff was friendly, but they seemed overwhelmed. The restaurant was packed, and it felt like they accepted more guests than they could comfortably handle. It took quite a while for someone to take our drink order, and the food also took a long time to arrive. Noise Level: Very loud Food: 4/5 The kitchen clearly knows what it's doing, and the food quality is there. That said, it feels like Dunsmoor has reached "hipster hype" status, where the buzz may be a little bigger than the overall experience. I'd definitely go back, though, because there are still several appetizers I'd like to try. What We Ordered: - Chicken Liver - 5/5: Absolutely delicious. The rich chicken liver paired perfectly with their incredible sourdough bread. - Green Chile Stew - 5/5: Outstanding. It was packed with large, tender chunks of pork, and the fresh flour tortillas were amazing. - Trout - 3/5: The biggest disappointment of the meal. While the fish was meaty and cooked well, it lacked flavor and felt very basic. - Famous Cornbread - 4/5: Good, but it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Final Thoughts: Dunsmoor serves some excellent food, especially the chicken liver and green chile stew, but the overall experience was held back by the long waits and noisy dining room. I can see why it's so popular, but I think some of the excitement is driven by hype. Even so, I'd come back to explore more of the menu.

The service was excellent. We were greeted immediately and the waiter took our drink order promptly, provided water first. The food was also very good. We started with chips and guacamole, oysters. Both were excellent. Those were followed by duck confit tacos and the pasta dish. If I return I think I'll get that pasta, it was really terrific. Cocktails were also excellent. The ginger margarita was so good I'll duplicate it at home. In short can't wait to return.

Well crafted and they had a spotlight cocktail, which is their featured batched cocktail, I kept ordering. We also tried their cucumber daiquiri and tea's knees that were very refreshing. Food was 3 out 5. Just okay. We went with the short rib barbacoa nachos but they lacked meat and cheese. I did like that they came with avocado and pickled onions. The calamari's batter was thicker than expected and there was an inconsistency with the crispiness. The chips and salsa came with regular and blue corn thick tortilla chips and the green salsa was very good. They have a small parking lot and also offer valet. Great prices for an LA happy hour.

Definitely more hipster/modern vibes but you are in Silver Lake after all. Our server had great recommendations and the staff was friendly. Highly recommend the Turkish Eggs ($21) for a light but filling meal! Also ordered the Cacao-Date Mocha ($7.75) but it just tasted like a regular mocha. Overall great brunch place with friends who are interested in the hipster/art-hoe vibe :)

Maybe it was an off day but even the staff were very quiet and not as inviting. We were seated in the back patio are. We got there at 8:30, we ordered some wine around 8:45 and they took our food order so around 9:05 our starters came out along with "kitchen is closing do you need anything else?" We felt very hurried to finish up and leave. The hummus and pesto was delicious and so was the roster chicken. We loved the Japanese sweet potatoes. The herb sauce was great on top. When the bill came out oh was over $100 over. They had changed an extra bottle of wine, one extra started and 5% for their insurance. And the staff adjusted it but even after adjusting the bill the first time it still was wrong and had to be sent back again to get readjusted. Again maybe it was an off day.

We made it for happy hour and started with rosé and the fries, which were the perfect way to kick off the meal. For our entrees, we ordered the salmon with vegetables and the rigatoni, and both were absolutely delicious. The salmon was perfectly cooked and so tender, and the pasta was rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. The outdoor patio is beautiful, but the inside is surprisingly spacious with multiple rooms, a fun photo booth, and even a private back area that's perfect for events. It's a great spot whether you're meeting friends, bringing family, or just looking for a nice night out. We were way too full to try the vegan cashew cheesecake, but that's definitely at the top of my list for next time. Looking forward to coming back!

Ordered: Naan & Dips Chickpea Fritters Goat Liver Mousse Shrimp and Crispy Veg Salad Galbi-style Short Rib Pork Belly Noodles Lamb Curry Sunrise Spritz The server and the sommelier were awesome! The biggest bummers were: 1. We waited what felt like almost 1 hour for our shank. The server said it was "getting plated" at the 30 mins mark and waited much longer and finally decided to just cancel it. 2. The pricing is way too high for the size of the plates. 3. The food was good but not excellent. For example, the pork belly noodles were just a glorified Japchae. 4. Parking. I mean it is.. Arts district. You can spend 1 hour finding street parking or paying an arm and a leg for a lot. The ambiance is modern but warm. I've been a few times but this might be the last for a while.

We were very hungry but they have this policy of not leading folks to their table if they don't arrive at their reservation time. Wasn't a big fan of that. But once we sat, the service was excellent. We had Chris wait on us and he made sure our glasses were always full and that we had our needs addressed. The food was superb - not sure how they grill their steaks but they smelled like they were smoked with some sort of wood plank. Everything was plated beautifully and it all looked like edible art. Intercrew has their own valet service so I wouldn't worry about parking. Just try them out one night and maybe if you're lucky enough, you'll get to enjoy a musical act - it's a total Ktown experience.
