The hot dogs were seriously amazing -- packed with flavor, perfectly made, and easily some of the best I've had. On top of that, their beer selection was really impressive, with plenty of great options to choose from. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the vibe. It has an awesome atmosphere that makes you want to hang out, relax, and stay awhile. Great food, great drinks, and a fun, welcoming energy all in one spot. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a cool place to eat and grab a beer.

​ 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.

Got seated on the patio on a beautiful day, so we were perfectly happy. After a quick glance at the menu, our recommendations from our server, we decided to order. We started with the escargot, as one does at a French restaurant, and the French onion soup. The escargot cube bathed in butter, garlic and parsley and were very tasty. I mean, how can they not be when bathed in garlic and butter? The French onion soup was also delicious with ample gruyere cheese overflowing. Pure indulgence! For entrees, we all tried something different. The steak frites were.... steak frites. If you've tried one, you've tried most, so not very memorable. The duck confit was cooked well and not overly fatty, which was nice. The omelette, let me say, is beautiful to look at. You almost don't want to touch it because it is very picrure-esque, and absolutely cooked perfectly. A, dare I say, perfect omelette. Finally was the Big Mec. Now, there are a lot of good burgers in Los Angeles, but the Big Mec is one of the greats. So much flavor with the double wagyu patties, cheese, special sauce all while sitting in a Bordelaise sauce. It isn't something you would eat every day, as it is heavy, but it is phenomenal when you do. I'd say one of the top five burgers in Los Angeles, in my humble opinion. Overall, delicious French restaurant in Hollywood, a little above Hancock Park, serving delicious food. Get the escargot and French onion soup to start, and definitely get the omelette and the Big Mec, you will not be disappointed.

I like the big mec more! Was missing the borderlaise sauce from the big mec as the wagyu burger's…read moresauce is more cheesy and thick. Ended up eating most of the wagyu and burger separately as I am a messy eater. Fries were delicious as they were last year during our first visit. Wagyu was buttery and soft though, which lets me know I need to make haste and come back to try the steak frites. :) Banana cream pie had a lot of flavors - some sourness from the banana ice cream, toasted coconut praline dust, and coconut caramel - some chunks of banana were more ripe than others. Would opt for the creme brulee next time! Service was good, water constantly refilled during this very rich meal. The bathroom, however, did get clogged towards the end of our meal so I did not get to wash my grubby hands post meal. I think we need to limit the amount of toilet paper available in the bathroom because there is an insane amount of tp in the bathroom.

Luckily their host found some stools for us by a leader/small table but ended being just fine. Given the high capacity/ NFL playoffs vibes I was just grateful to get a spot to sit and eat, plus we had a great view of the TV/game. I had myself a nice cheese burger which if i remember correctly had some kimchi in it which i loved. We had some of their I also had A LOT of beer lol. I tried a couple different crafts one of which being peanutter'd flavor. It was a darker boozy brew which I enjoyed. It not exactly a garden, or too glamorous, but in its own right was cozy, well kept, and laid back spot in the middle of Ktown which ended up being just right for us to unwind and get some damn good food. We didn't end up staying for the whole game but did enjoy the friendly sports environment and would come back to try more for a big game if in the area. The prices were very reasonable and food was scrumptious.

The people here are sooo nice and accommodating. Came here with a friend for lunch-our first time…read moreand it was great. Surprise was the happy hour menu offered. We got the nachos and the burger trio and the filet burger sandwich. It was all good esp the filet burger which had 2 big slices of steak! The trio sliders were so good and love the bun with a lot of French fries. The nachos was a big bowl too with all the fixins-guac, beans, cheese choice of chicken or ground beef! This is a neighborhood gem and I'd make it a destination place to go to too. The place has a nice bar area with tvs too Thank you Keith for the wonderful service.

First off, I'm sad to know they are closed :(…read more The last time I went there was around the holidays before the end of the year and enjoyed some good wings and a couple of drinks. The staff was friendly and very attentive. The wings and drinks themselves were super flavorful and I thought I would have more time to enjoy and come back to visit while in town. My partner also tried their burger and fries and decided to stop by the restaurant only to find out they closed a couple of months ago. It was worth the visit when we went there back in December.z The place was cute and it felt comfy.

Easily obsessed with this place now. We've only gone once, but we love it…read more We were heading back to LA from doing something in Long Beach, and wanted to stop and have a drink somewhere quick. This place popped up, and it was happy hour. So we thought why not. We got lucky and found parking close (rare for that street). And walked over and immediately loved the vibe. We walked in and were greeted immediately, and then brought upstairs. The decor on the way up was awesome. The old school nature, with paintings and abstract vintage pieces.. love. It felt like we were in an old industrial building. We were surprised that it was pretty empty when we got up there. We sat at the bar, and love the decor upstairs too. There's a view of the street from up there as well that's beautiful. The bartender greeted us fairly quickly, and we each ordered a speciality cocktail on their happy hour. Both were delicious. I will say that the prices are a bit steep for me. Very glad we came during the happy hour. But really want to return to try the food and more drinks. Maybe on a special date night out!

I want to update my review about the location of Zinc that I wrote over a decade ago. Since my…read moreinitial review, I've continued to come to this restaurant. It remains a unique addition to the neighborhood, as well as a good place to grab some interesting dishes. Since the opening of this particular business, the Zinc chain has opened in a few other locations. Those locations are much newer in not only their establishment but their design. This is not to say that this is still not an interesting, well-designed business, but, with time, it has become a little bit rundown. I hate to say it, but that is the truth. This location could really use an update and perhaps a deep cleaning. I was, in fact, kind of surprised at the condition of this business, for example, on the way towards their restrooms. From my opinion, it needs an clean up and an update. Also, the litter that surrounded some of the outdoor tables where I was sitting at my most recent visit was very surprising. This is just something to keep in mind if you're coming here for your first visit. In terms of what they offer for food, though it has evolved a bit over the years, they still have a great, heath-based menu, with some very interesting choices. For all of you vegetarians and vegans out there, you will, for sure, be able to find some tasty food to eat. Once upon a time, this restaurant was impacted with tons and tons of people. It was constantly full with people either going to the bakery and/or sitting down for table service. Shortly past their opening each day, there would be a line of people waiting for service. This seems to have changed, however. Meaning, if you're looking for an interesting place to eat, with some good dishes, at the far Southeast side of DTLA, near the lofts district, and you want a place without a long wait to get a table and/or your food, this may still be your place to go.

I got an omelette and it was fresh and light, but very small for the price and no bread included. Now for the rest, the service was appalling. Food came out quickly but after that we were barely checked on. We had to ask several times for things that we ordered and had to flag down the waitress to order a second drink and they took forever. We could understand that it was busy but the waitress never apologized or said anything like they were understaffed or anything. Also, we had a few questions about the menu and our drinks and the waitress would just say, "I think so?" or give a vague answer. She didn't seem very knowledgeable about the menu at all. Maybe she was new, but clearly training was lacking. I don't think I'll be returning but since I see many reviews relating to service issues, hopefully management is able to address the deficit
