Amazing cocktail list but order off menu . Go with a sidecar (meant to be made with cognac ) and perfectly balanced! I am am an admitted classic cocktail snob and it did not did not disappoint! :-)

Nick Stanzione

Cocktails (strawberry jalapeño one has a nice kick), fried cauliflower surprisingly delicious, gnudi and tagliatelle ???? the fried nutter butter if you still have any room left

Thrillist

With a moody interior & libations like the whiskey/bitters/cane syrup “Amber & Embers” or the rye/sweet vermouth/Tia Maria “Sweet Valley Rye ,” suddenly drinking in the Valley is like, totally badass. Read more

Brad Hager

GREAT place, nice clientele. Very good craft cocktails , food is really good too. The fried spring rolls (pic) are AMAZING!!

Eater

The cavernous dining room feels like a party every night, while the market-driven plates are sure to please anyone at your table. Read more

The grilled corn is excellent. You get a different flavor with each corn assuming you use one of the seasonings/sauces/cheese that's given per corn .

Klara Licht

Great cocktails . Mr. Broccoli is doing a great job. The mussels have a great spicy sweet sauce . And try the date cake . Seems to be a date place ...

Naz F. Gérdabi

If you come for brunch , i highly recommend the Egg Sandwich ! Also, you have to try the French Toast ????

Martini Mike

Finally made it in and was impressed. Great staff , tapas , and cocktails ! I will be back.

Sydney Williams

Amber & Embers cocktail is legit. Shrimp toasts are bomb. Everything we tried was INCREDIBLE.

Aling Zhang

Be adventurous and ask the bartender to make you something off the menu . You can't go wrong with trusting some of the best mixologists LA has to offer. Don't forget to tip well !

Joe Parrilli

Go on Tuesday/Wednesday,because that's when Lacey is at the bar and she rocks! (Ray and Anthony also rock). Good booze, great drinks, deep fried fluffer nutter , there's no better combo anywhere!

Lisa

This place sure knows how to do mixology properly! Red Hot and Bothered cocktail was delicious and perfectly balanced. Tapas were delicious as well .

threjymy hertwhnrtydhf

Amazing! You can not change any of the food. But well worth it. Everything was very unique and amazingly prepared!

Kitty Rallo

Cocktails are sweet if that's your thing. All employees wear street clothes and you can't tell who works here which can be... fun.

Jason C

Everything we tried at brunch was delicious, but the biscuits were more like scones than biscuits .

Jackee F.

The food here is AMAZING and Kenneth is the best server :)

Aling Zhang

Don't forget to save room for dessert . The deep fried fluffer nutter is a perfect blend of bananas , peanut butter , and mallow. All wrapped up and fried to golden perfection.

Neesa RN

Great ambiance. The Red Hot and Bothered was delish, not too spicy & the food was good - Short ribs on brioche is a must try!

Ali Oop

Deviled quail eggs . Can't ever have a meal here without them. Perfect to go with drinks.

Ryan Simpkins

The new sope is amazing! Every Spanish flavor you could imagine in one bite!

Jackie Gudgel

The sign is blank and doesn't say anything.. The valet tipped me off that I was in the right place. Drinks are strong! Love it.

Bollare

Artfully prepared cocktails and DELISH eats from Top Chef Antonia Lofaso. Go and order the spicy chocolate pudding . –Ashley

Beau Colburn

Delicious food and a great drink menu. Surprised to see a Kingston Swizzle on the menu, to my wife’s delight.

Ali Oop

Cocktails are solid - so solid that I save my beer & wine orders for other places.

Arnie Panameño

Order the BBQ short rib it is the perfect little slider .

The meatballs are rich and delicious do not pass them up.

Arnie Panameño

The Old Cuban is tart in flavour but has a nice rum kick.

Larissa Vaz

Scallops , please! The Boulevard Double Wide IPA is a good call too.

ashton kutcher

Trout toast

Erin KF

The mussels are incredible! Always love the food and the drinks.

Angelica Dongallo

Fried cauliflower , dill chips , and shrimp toast = ????????????????????????

LA Home & Style

Serving wonderfully creative cocktails and amazing food and great place to unwind.

Claire Berger

This place is great! I recommend the Red Hot & Bothered cocktail and the Oxtail Ragu .

Flobo Boyce

Brown furniture , overpriced drinks and grub and a place to be seen. It's Starbucks for the "after work" set

Speedy Lico

Recommend peel and eat shrimp and a Red, hot & bothered to start things off!

Traci Kato-kiriyama

Everything we pointed to, we liked. Savory or sweet!

Vy

Old Cuban strong drink but taste great and buzz

Joe Johnson

The Amber and Embers is amazing... But, you must like whiskey to appreciate it. Thanks to original tipster.

Jason H.

Very very loud . Cool small plates to share but forget trying to talk to the people you are with.

Linda Zimmerman

Steamed mussels . Dill chips . Everything on the menu.

Stephen Smythe

Definitely have the fried cauliflower and ricotta nudi!

Liberty T

Private room seats up to 15. Call to reserve for 6+

Chase Fritchle

Cocktails are filled with ice. Test the bartenders and order without. :)

RC ⚾????????

Ridiculously secretly good. So secret you can't even find it on Google! Fantastic service and beautiful place.

Christopher Davidson

Food is a bit precious but the outside tables are lovely

Jon Reep

The chicken boa here is better than the chicken boa across the street at "take a boa". How boa that!?

Samantha Ilyce

A little pricey but the food and drinks are awesome! You have to try the dill chips !
