Restaurants near Los Angeles Public Library

As always impeccable service! Excited to make the tree lighting a yearly tradition to kick off the holiday season. The parking was abysmal I would recommend hiring more valet drivers for such massive events in the future ;D

To dine at Musso & Frank’s Grill is to have an experience like no other in LA: old world style, dishes that have long since disappeared from the menus of any other of its competitors and the pleasure of knowing that one is dining in a space that has probably catered for virtually every great name ever to have graced Hollywood in the course of the past century. Look beyond the cheap and tawdry pseudo glamour of the rest of the Hollywood strip and allow yourself the pleasure of an authentic experience you will never forget, long after the memory of all the dross of the surrounding razzmatazz has faded into oblivion. Worth every penny twice over.

I've now been here two times and the food has been excellent overall. I could personally do without the frequent use of chili slices. Other than that, the flavors and textures are marvelous. The brioche bread and hummus are delectable. I feel like every dish is a slam dunk - too bad there isn't a sampler platter! The decor is lovely, a few discreet fabric panels might help with the noise as its a bit hard to hear the people across from you - the sound bounces around the cavernous space. The crowd seems very chic, a bit eccentric in a fun way and more adult - that's probably the price point keeping out the under 30 crowd.

Really good panini in a nice setting with friendly, efficient service. We did lunch and I go back happily for lunch or dinner. They also have lunch salads and pasta dishes for lunch.

Service was very quick and consistent both times we came here. The patio area is beautiful. Dirty chai was delicious. Eggs Benedict perfect.
