Best Restaurants with Bar Seating in Elysian Valley

I took my daughter here for her 16th birthday. It was amazing! From the moment we walked in and checked in the host made her feel special by wishing her a happy birthday. We got a window table and more it was in the back semi private, quiet and the staff alll of them were so attentive and welcoming. My daughter had a great experience for her birthday. I love that they accommodated us for our occasion. 🩷worth the experience for the $$$

Good food, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the excellent service. I will be back.

Our fare consisted of the Cod, Short Ribs, Shrimp and Steak Skewers, Chicken Meatballs, and the Sorbet Trio for dessert. Every morsel was taste and delightful to the palate. The prices were reasonable. The waiters were very pleasant and attentive. The ambiance, multiple seating levels, and ceiling aquarium visually pleasing. Valet parking convenient and only $14 bucks. The restroom clean and the circular black 45 spindle adapter walls were unique. Only disappointment was you only get 3 Skewers so if you are dinning with someone you have to resort to rock-paper-scissor to see who will get the 3rd delicious Skewer-maybe should offer at least 4. Also be careful ascending the stairs to the restaurant they are very steep. Overall a wonderful dinning experience and I highly recommend it (Thanks TikTok).

My experience at the Golden Hour was so beautiful. It had great city views, good music, and good food. I felt like I was in a movie. I would definitely recommend to family, and friends. Great for date night, or just a good night out with friends.

The ambiance was nice, clean and comfortable. The waitress was friendly and attentive. We only got the truffle fries, but they were very good. The drinks were good. A little pricey and came with the included 18% gratuity. But it's in LA so it was expected, so no big deal. The only problem was our reservations were for 615 and the entertainment didn't start until 730. The guy comes out on the piano plays 3 songs and stops. Then another show starts at 830. So the lack of entertainment was the only complaint about the evening. But we still had a good time.
