“Very unassuming on the outside, very lively and loud inside. Cozy feeling, clientele and bar staff all friendly and happy to be there, had to wait for a few minutes to get the attention of a bartender who wasn’t preoccupied, but once I did the service was extremely prompt and and drinks were made with care and style. I’d definitely recommend and go again.“
“BEST ALL-ROUND EATERY IN LA!!!! THIS AFTER MORE THAN 40 YEARS OF FREQUENTING THE RAINBOW'S WONDERFUL FOOD, DRINK AND ATMOSPHERE, AND THE OCCASIONAL CHANCE TO RECOGNIZE, AND EVEN MEET, A HOLLYWOOD PERSON. AND I GET A CHANCE TO DINE WHERE ANYONE, WHO IS ANYONE, IN MUSIC, IS HAPPILY ON THE WALLSParking: THERE IS A PAID PARKING LOT, REASONABLY PRICED WITH FRIENDLY ATTENDANTS, WHO HANDLE MY NEEDS.Kid-friendliness: MY SON AND SEVERAL DAUGHTERS ALL GREW UP EATING-OUT AT THE RAINBOW. MY KIDS LOVE IT WHEN THEY COME BACK TO LOS ANGELES, AND THE STAFF IS ALWAYS POSITIVE TOWARD CHILDREN.“
“We had a birthday party for 11 here on the outdoor patio and it was perfect. Great drinks, service, and ambiance. Excellent location for an outdoor celebration. Eclectic drink menu with good wines and beers. And convenient on-site parking. Overall, I highly recommend it!“
“Best of all worlds!!! Sat outside next to the fish fountain and the food and drinks were great!! We got the crispy tuna, southwest egg rolls and the braised short rib, we finished off with the crème brûlée…. SO GOOD!?? Our Waitress Linda was very friendly and kept checking on us, PERECT EXPERIENCE!!!“
“After hearing that the burgers were great, I decided to give it a try. I can report that they are OK. I was not overwhelmed. It was good, but pretty basic. I also got a side of chili, and liked it. What the place has going for it is ambiance and location. It's a legit dive bar, within throwing distance of the beach. There's plenty of outdoor seating, where you can enjoy the scenery.“
“I really enjoyed dining at Edendale. The beer selection was above-average, the food top-notch, and the service was outstanding. Our server, I believe her name was Missy, was efficient, friendly, and, dare I say, playfully flirtatious. Her charm made this meal memorable in just about every way. I'll be sure to visit Edendale when I'm in this part of town again.“
“Great bar, showed all the NBA games plus the tennis. Food was amazing, loads of vegan options and the portions were huge. Definitely recommend the cali wings and vegan fried chicken burger, tasted fresh and delicious.Dietary restrictions: Great vegan options“
“Awesome burgers. Awesome beer selection. Awesome attentive, friendly staff. We spent some time in the back bar area recently and had an absolute blast. The smash burgers are out of this world. Service was second to none. We'll be back.“
“Love this bar.. It's easy, great selection of liquors and beers on tap, but the best part is the staff.. You get to know them and they get to know you. They're all great!! Chill vibes too, they usually have a good DJ on the weekends too!“
“Super dark when we first walked in to this place. Lots of candles. Once my ayes adjusted it was very cool place. The music and ambiance were excellent. The food was also very good. We liked the Mac n cheese, steak fries and the huge chicken sandwich. It was clean and service quick. Nice place !“
“A pub located on Santa Monica Beach, about 30 minutes by Uber from Los Angeles International Airport.Light music plays, and you can watch sports such as the NBA on the screen.There are many craft beers available, and the medium size of $11 can be considered a large size for Japanese people. Fish and chips also come in half sizes. (lol)There were three options for the tip at checkout: 18%, 20%, and 25%, or you could customize it by writing it yourself.When I visited Las Vegas over 10 years ago, it was 10, 15, 20%. . This may also be due to the effects of inflation.“
“Really nice place, you’re allowed dogs inside which I loved. I didn’t have a dog but there was a dog there and she was lovely! Watched some of the game there well we ate some breakfast. We also went and had lunch the next day too that’s how much we loved the tacos!“
“We came here for my husband‘s birthday . It is so hard to find a restaurant with such great service in Los Angeles. Our server, Jose Peralta was absolutely incredible!!! He was patient while explaining the menu to us , kind while he consistently checking on us, and incredibly hospitable. He made our whole experience amazing!!!What a great experience!! Thank you !! We will definitely be back! ?“
“Came here last night with a friend. Music was great! Drinks are a bit pricey but it has a semi club feel with a nice dance floor. The bathrooms can be a bit dirty but it's the same at most bars. The bar area is a circular section in the middle so be sure to order more then one drink at a time so you're not chasing down the bartender. It can get crowded but the music is so 80s/90s heavy it reminds me of the old times.“
“We wandered in on a Friday evening dressed casually, incredibly hungry, and wanting to find top tier cuisine. Well, we wandered correctly!! I love the ambiance of Alissa's. It feels homey like a neighborhood bar (where everybody knows your name ) and classy like an upscale restaurant all at the same time. Dress for *your* occasion and you'll feel right at home here! Super casual? Excellent! Celebrating a big anniversary wearing your finest threads? Excellent!! Our server was truly excellent! She was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. Again, somehow walking a perfect balance between friendly/casual and black tie service. The menu offers this same balance. I'm not normally a "salad for dinner" person. I'll pick a fried thing nearly every time (they have both by the way). I went with the Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese salad with Salmon. It was amazing. So amazing that I don't remember what my partner had! Sorry!! No photo because I was starving and dug right in! It was filling and well-balanced. Like everything at Alissa's. I am looking forward to going back on a warmer evening so we can dine out on their gorgeous patio. Parking here: super easy! Free parking lot just down the street with ample parking. Stay and enjoy some of the other local shops!! Thanks!! One of the best kept secrets in LA!!“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Whaler in Venice, and I must say, my experience was elevated thanks to the outstanding service provided by Ashley. From the moment we were seated, Ashley's warm and attentive demeanor set the tone for a fantastic meal. Not only did Ashley handle a mix-up with our food order with grace and efficiency, but she went above and beyond to ensure that everything was corrected promptly. Her attention to detail and genuine care for our dining experience truly stood out. Throughout the meal, Ashley was consistently attentive, checking in on us without being intrusive and making sure that we had everything we needed. Her friendly and personable nature made us feel welcome and valued as guests.“
“I was bar hopping and this spot popped up. A solid bar and in the future I’d like to try their restaurant.I had a few drinks at the bar and the bartender was real cool and the atmosphere was very relaxed with a toned down music selection.I’d definitely come back here again in the future.“
“The succulent nuggets, hearty and well-seasoned chicken tender, generously portioned and crispy fried pickles with delectable dipping sauce, and the swiftly devoured burger made for a delightful meal that delivered high-quality, delicious food without the exorbitant LA price tag.Nuggets: These weren’t just any nuggets; they were a revelation—so juicy and tender that each bite was a small celebration in itself.Chicken Tender: The tender was a standout, massive in size and rich in flavor, with a seasoning that nailed it. It was cooked to perfection, striking that elusive balance of being thoroughly cooked yet still sumptuously moist.Fried Pickles: The portion of fried pickles was generous, each one encased in a crispy, golden batter that crunched perfectly. The seasoning was spot-on, complemented by a dipping sauce that added just the right zing to these tangy morsels.Burger: It was devoured too swiftly for a detailed critique, but that speed-eating says it all—it was irresistible.Hot Motha Clucker has delivered a dining experience that's a breath of fresh air in the Los Angeles food scene. It's a joy to find a place that serves food delicious enough to feel like a splurge, without the hefty price tag that usually accompanies such culinary delights here. It’s a rarity to enjoy this caliber of dining at such fair prices, and it speaks to a genuine passion for food that goes beyond the trend of opening restaurants for the sake of it. It’s clear they're in it for the love of food, and it shines through in every mouth-watering bite.“
“Came to dinner at Otium post a Sunday concert at the Walt Disney Concert Hall (WDCH) with friends who suggested Otium as our dinner stop and reserved. From the word welcome to Otin, as we walked in the experience was sublime. The seating just outside of the kitchen was amazing to watch. Our server was on point and all the support staff as well. We started our meal with 12 oysters, moved to the Pea Ravioli, then added some Naan bread (so delicious), then moved on to the main of the pork chop with potatoes and cauliflower sides. Finished with the best pineapple upside down cake I have ever had and this will go down as the best dinner I have had in Los Angeles bar none, combined with the ambiance and service, you all knocked it out of the park.“
“Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Pineapple Hill, and it was an incredible experience with my friends. The locally sourced foods were incredibly fresh and delicious, perfectly complemented by the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Their hospitality made our visit truly memorable, and I'm already looking forward to returning next week for another delightful meal.“
“We just left the SoFi stadium after the game. Came here to wait out the traffic. The walk here was well lit, clean, and had plenty of police and security to make us feel safe. The food was good, the atmosphere was better. Our server Raul HUSSLED around getting us our food and drinks! 10/10 recommend. Now we're leaving in a great mood, and our Uber should be right here. It's totally worth it to wait out the traffic.“
“Very welcoming, very homey. Love the TVs May I have some hot Cheetos with cheez? Just kidding hehehe It's always a great time to watch sports and for a social great night. The food is delicious. I always get the bowl and crazy fries. Highly recommend!“
“Beautiful setting; cabanas and palms and lights on the patio. Free parking in the lot across the street. The hands down best damn pizza (Ozzy's Apizza) in LA. Crispy crust, tomatoey, not pastey sauce and fantastic thick pepperoni. Sausage with a kick. Other pizzas I leave the crust but Ozzy's is maybe the best part. Cocktails are on point.“
“For a sports pub the food and service on point. Bartenders and servers are super attentive and deserve their tips. Cook hasn't let me down yet. Plenty of space to hang out after a game during the week of you are looking to hang with some teammates after a weeknight game. Give it a try and let me know your experience.“
“I love the concept of Nandarang and I feel like Koreatown should have more places like this!Looking for a fun spot to hang out at in Koreatown that wasn't a bar or KBBQ on a Saturday evening, we decided to give Nandarang a try, since it was described as being a gastropub with Korean comfort/pub grub style food.It's very spacious inside with plenty of tables. I was a little disappointed to see that there were only a few other people there - I hope that it was just that day, as this place deserves a lot more attention!!Service was attentive and friendly, and we quickly had our food and drink orders being brought out.I loved everything we got!There's more traditional grub like mozzarella sticks that tasted cheesy and delicious, as well as items with Korean twists to them, such as a Kimchi Shrimp Pasta that I LOVED.Seriously though, that Kimchi Pasta is now at the top of my list for favorite pastas in LA - unique, flavorful, creamy, spicy but not too much....it's SO good!Korean staples such as the corn cheese were similarly creamy, delicious, and delectably enjoyable.Paired with some hot sake and we had a wonderful evening and meal!I loved my visit to Nandarang and would love to go back! If you're looking for a great Korean comfort food & gastropub spot that's clean and modern inside and has both delicious staples and unique bites, you'll definitely want to try it out as well!“
“1st time coming to WeHo Bistro and will definitely be coming back. Our waiter was super friendly and gave excellent recommendations. We celebrated my younger sister's birthday and sitting outside surrounded by the lights was absolutely the cherry on top.“
