I give this place 4.5 stars but rounding up to 5 for this review. We've come here a few times now and have enjoyed our meal each time. The food is excellent, having tried the schnitzel, kielbasa, steak frites and pierogis. If you have room in the end, the bread pudding is fantastic. The portions are big and filling and we tend to end up with leftovers. Drinks menu is big, with a variety of creative cocktails and wines. Vibes are different depending on where you sit. Outdoor patio seating is great, and reminds of eating outdoors in a European cafe. Indoor seating is a little cramped if you're at one of the tables, which also sort of mimics European cafes. My one small knock on this restaurant is the service has been inconsistent. Couple times our waiter was great, but a couple times it was hard to flag them down, they didn't space out the dishes very well as the appetizers and entrees all came out the same time, or they forgot to bring water when we asked for it. Small things to complain about overall though. read more

Keep here for brunch the other day with my oldest daughter, and we absolutely loved it. Little café in a pretty nice location. Plenty of outdoor seating, but they only have a lot four tables and bar seating inside. Had the hash brown cake and the bread and butter and jam to start. The baguette was the average baguette. But the gym was pretty tasty. The hash brown cake is exactly what it sounds like. The hash brown deep-fried into a thick little cake but absolutely tasted amazing. Crispy tasty delicious. I had the breakfast Royale, which is two eggs, bacon, and one pancake. Can't really do wrong with this pancake was light fluffy, and moist. My daughter had the avocado toast with salmon and absolutely loved it. They were busy, but still made sure that we were treated right and service in bartender. We're very attentive. read more

Amazing food and each time I enjoy the food more!! They are also friendly and the food is ready really fast. I love their Grilled chicken and hummus!! read more

This post is all about the SHORT RIB PASTA! Came here on new years with friends and decided to split a bit of everything. The cocktails were yummy and the food did not disappoint. Service was nice and helpful. This felt like we were in a cute little hole in the wall in Paris or something. Ok so on to the goooods! The SHORT RIB PASTA blew our minds. It was the new years special and it was the perfect choice! I only wish there was more! Opted for truffle shavings and probably could've gone without. I went off of a pic for the PERSIMMON SALAD. I was expecting a sweet and savory salad but didn't really get that from this. That's my fault for not looking at the menu first. Tried the fried cheese appetizer and the steak too. Their were good but I'd go back mostly for the pasta! read more

I'd been meaning to try Bar Sinizki ever since poking my head in one day, and I'm glad I finally did. It's a small, cozy spot with a few tables outside and a distinctly European feel. The staff is warm and welcoming, and water appeared immediately--a small thing, but a big plus in my book. I'd heard the schnitzel was the thing to order, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Perfectly browned and crisp, topped with capers, and truly delicious. The fries were excellent too--among the best I've had. And the martinis? Spot-on and only $12, which feels like a minor miracle these days. They don't take reservations, but if there's a wait, Atwater Village offers plenty of shops to browse. Well worth checking out. read more

I've dined at Bar Sinizki twice in the last several weeks and have been blown away both times. Both by quality & deliciousness of the offerings and by the service. Tonight in particular, my hat goes off to Ava for setting my cousin & I up at table with a heat lamp outside on a brisk night. She was great... helpful, friendly and just a natural with her customer service. We appreciated her help and its always nice to converse & meet people from where you grew up. Kudos to her. So for the food... my first time there was with my lady, we dined at the bar and we loved it. I had the chicken schnitzel ($28) and she ordered the bistro burger ($22). The schnitzel was delicious and the burger was amazing. What more can you ask for? The schnitzel comes with brown butter, capers and you drizzy it with lemon. So good... The bistro burger is a masterpiece. Perfect medium rare patty with carmelized onions, new school american cheese, burger sauce and all encompassed within a Bub & Grandma's potato bun. Perfect. It's a damn good burger. You try... The lady had some chardonnay and we also ordered a totally shareable portion of immaculately cooked fries ($9). That comes with ketchup and mayo for dipping. Fries done right. On my return visit to Bar Sinizki, I ate lighter. I had the jambon beurre ($19). Parisian ham, euro style butter, comte cheese, dijon, cornichon in a baguette. It was light and just what I was looking for in a late dinner. My cousin had the bistro burger and absolutely loved it. He cant wait to take his friends there. We shared fries and he had a Mexican coke. Will for sure be back with my lady again and my other cousin. She will for sure love it. Thank you Ava! We appreciate you. read more

Stopped here after I wasn't able to go to another location and really happy I did! I was a walk in on a Wednesday and it was easy to get a seat outside. I only got a glass of wine and some fries while I was reading a book, but it was a lovely experience. The staff were so friendly and the ambiance is very nice. Next time I go there are so many dishes I want to try. read more

Went here the other night for a night cap of cocktails. Food was no longer being served but we were really just looking for drinks, so it was perfect. Tried a few drinks just didn't remember what everyone ordered. I personally tried the Banana Republic with Saison Pale Caribbean Rum, Maraschino Liqueur, Kin - a - Peel Banana liqueur, Lime juice, Angostura Amaro. While there were a few things going on in the drink, the hope was that the banana would come through, or hopefully be prominent in some way, and it was not. There was also a Mai Tai which really didn't stand out in any way, unfortunately. As for the other drinks, no one in the group necessarily raved about how good their drink was, saying they were ok. So, overall, drinks were decent, not standing out necessarily, but the shushed is chill and you can drink outside on the street patio as well. read more

WOW!!!! I had an absolutely incredible dinner last night at this little gem. Tucked in the super trendy Atwater Village, Bar Sinizki did not disappoint! The zucchini salad was incredibly refreshing and a perfect starter. The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the chicken schnitzel was superb. And the star of the show? The amazing bread pudding!!!! I will be dreaming of that bread pudding for the rest of my life. The place is super cute, especially as we sat outside during a nice, warm summer night. And service was great. Our waitress was super helpful and kind. Can't wait to go back! read more

What a perfect little restaurant with a perfect little menu. We sat at the bar, which was just exquisite. In fact, everything about this place was exquisite. The floor tiles, the tables and chairs, and even the utensils and linens. I had the trout tartine and my husband had the chicken schnitzel. We also got a side of fries. The trout was absolutely perfectly balanced and flavorful. I just wish the bread was toasted on the side because it was soggy by the time it was being eaten. My husband had the schnitzel which I also tried. Very juicy and flavorful. He just wishes that the chicken was half in size. and maybe a side of fries with it instead of ordering a side of fries. The fries, by the way, were absolutely incredible. Double cooked and so crispy. The food did take a while to come out. Probably because of the schnitzel. It's a beautiful place and we can't wait to come back. read more

Updating my review because I tried a new item called the NorCal Sandwich and it was genuinely one of the best sandwiches I've had and I just had to let the people know. The focaccia was so good and the sauce they use is also so good. The ingredients were so fresh. Try it!! read more

We came upon this place by accident while cruising around Atwater Village on a Sunday afternoon. Looking for a bite, the outside tables looked inviting and the menu looked interesting. We ordered and Aperol spritz and a South African chardonnay. Both were refreshing and our server was well versed in the drinks they offered to answer any questions. We also had the Jambon Buerre (french ham sandwich) and the Trout Rillette. Both dishes were visually appealing and the portions were generous. The ham and gruyere sandwich with a pickle spread was proportioned just right between all of the elements and was easily eaten with the chewy, sourdough baguette. The trout rillette was best eaten with a fork and knife, accompanied by a large arugula salad and covered in capers and red onion. Someone knew what they were doing in the kitchen to elevate these dishes to something just a little bit special. Our service was just right - friendly and attentive, just the right amount. Overall we had a really nice and slightly different experience, just what we were looking for. read more

Came to chill and gossip with the girlfriends. I started with their tempranillo wine which was good. One of the better ones I've had in the states. We split the bread pudding, fries, and passion tart. All were very good. I wish I hadn't ate so much earlier in the day because that bread pudding was worth eating by myself. For all 4 items, total bill came out to $64 with tax. Service was the usual. I can't think of any bad notes or spectacular notes to say read more

First time coming to BarSinizki located in Atwater Village with friends and we had a good time. Indoor decor is nice and cozy..similar to an European café...checkerboard floors, curved marble bar and a small sidewalk patio for outdoor dining. No reservations available so we only had a small wait as we had come late evening. We grabbed a seat at the bar and our bartender was quite nice and offerred some recommendations. I ordered the Aperol spritz while my friends had a glass of their chardonnay wine and a cocktail called Golden Hour. We had a good time catching up since college days and also chatted with our bartender. He kept our drinks filled all night. We also ordered a few bites to eat. I especially liked their potato and cheese pierogi and their steak frites au poivre was good as well. Overall a good time. Bar area was sticky to touch but our bartender cleaned it up right away so that was good. read more

I love this place. The drinks, the food, the friendly employees, the upscale casualness and swanky vibes. This is definitely one of, if not my absolute, favorite little spot. read more

Stopped by on a Friday evening with my husband and friend. It was pretty full when we arrived at 6:30pm and we managed to snag 3 seats at the bar. They have a big outdoor space with 2-4 table tops. Seating is super limited on the inside. Overall, love the vibe and it's a perfect spot to meet up with friends, pass time if you're waiting for a reservation or to eat dinner. We ordered a few drinks and appetizers including bread + butter, fries, and olives. I would definitely go back to try some of their entrees. If you're just hanging out and want a snack - highly recommend their house fries! read more

FANTASTIC all around. Such a great intimate vibe to enjoy a flavor explosion. Impossible to pick a favorite between the pierogi and steak frites we ordered. Will definitely be back to try the burger and Caesar salad - seeing them be served to other tables made me drool. We did have the banana cocktail at the request of our waitress, but did not love. We would have loved to sit outside but couldn't snag a table out there. It looked so nice!!! We didn't have to wait to be seated indoors though. read more

Stopped by Bar Sinizki on a Friday around 5 PM and got lucky grabbing a table outside on the sidewalk for 6 without a reservation. We ordered the Lucques Olives, Caesar Salad, Grated Carrot and Persimmon Salad, Steak Frites au Poivre, Chicken Schnitzel, Kielbasa, and a couple of glasses of their Sunhawk Farms Sleepless Nights Field Blend. The olives were hella salty, but somehow worked. The salads were both fresh and really well balanced. The steak and fries were peppery and good enough. The chicken schnitzel was crisp and comforting, easily the standout. The kielbasa was homey. The wine was just ok, but it was chilled which hit the spot for the hot, stifling afternoon. Would definitely come back if I was already in the area, especially for a casual Friday evening hangout. read more

I've tried Bar Sinizki several times now, and I've found it to be a great spot! While I've dined their solo and with friends, I think the restaurant's potential comes best into focus when you can share a variety of plates. I've tried a few of their tartines, and my favorite is the trout rillette; it melds a creamy fish spread with tart capers on a slice of toasted bread. I've grown to appreciate their Caesar salad after a second try. At first, I found it unbalanced with too much lettuce, but when I tried it again I thought it had an ample amount of dressing and cheese with a smattering of boquerones and one sizable crouton. They offer a full beverage menu, and my go-to is the Aviation (a gin-based cocktail that has a hint of tartness and a charming lavender color from the crème de violette). They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and I've found service to be generally consistent and attentive. read more

Pierogi 10/10 mustttttttt Basically from my standpoint you cant go wrong, everything is delicious and perfectly prepared. The cocktails as well are perfection. Just go here. read more

First time at this cafe in Atwater Village. Our timing was good and we got seated immediately on a busy Sunday morning. Very limited menu at various times during the g the morning. We didn't notice that at first and both decided on something that was on the 11am menu but both quickly found something to order on the earlier menu. PS limited menu is fine. We had various people serving us over the time we were there (almost 2 hours) - water was filled at a somewhat regular basis and my flat white was really good. We both ordered 2 eggs - one over easy, one over hard. Both came over easy - which I was fine with as I ordered over easy Slight schemer of cheese on toast but will say top notch food. The arugula was well dressed and the toast was delish. The reason I didn't give a higher star rating was because of the service. We ordered a non alcoholic drink that could not be provided because the bartender wasn't on until 11. Our server said he would check on if someone could make the drink for us and didn't come back until 45 minutes AFTER we had finished eating. We finally had to call someone to send him over to us. And she gave us supreme attitude and was quick to say his tardiness was NOT her fault. We were in good spirits through all this but my friend had to get to work - we initially were going to not say anything to see how long it would really take. When the server came he comped our coffee which was kind. He said they were having organizational issues (it's been open for a while so I didn't get that). We counted at least 8 servers while we were there so maybe there was something weird going on. Not going to hold this against the restaurant because the food was tasty (but $18 for two eggs was a bit steep) and will not not go because of this. We did see the humour in the situation. Can we blame it on the fact that the clocks fell back last night? read more

Cute little spot that opened up in the neighborhood. Mix between a cafe and bar. They have a good amount of coffee drinks, pastries, and some breakfast plates that are only available between 9am-11am They have a good amount of cocktails , wines, and beers for a great place to grab drinks before heading out with friends or your special someone or even yourself. The food menu is a little small with the mains including a burger, steak frites, salads, and some sandwiches. We ordered the bistro burger, maslo z synznki (ham and cheese baguette), and Caesar salad. And of course... fries to share! The burger was pretty tasty with caramelized onions on that super soft Bub and Grandmas potato bun. Also came with a crunchy pickle $18 The Ham and Cheese Baguette was loaded with ham and good amount of Dijon and salted butter $18 Caesar salad was also large and dressed moderately with a nice amount of anchovies. Yummy haha Sad they were out of Bread Pudding by 6pm The servers/staff were friendly and attentive. There is some seating inside with additional seating out front. The Aviation was our fav drink! read more

I had a wonderful dinner here on a Friday night with my friend. We arrived around 8pm and were told it would be about a 30 min wait, but after 15 mins we received a text that our table was ready! We were seated outside which honestly I preferred because inside is small and loud. Their menu is limited but the options are very unique. For drinks, I had the Cali Cosmo which was divine and my friend had the Garden Party Spritz which was also delicious! For our mains, I had the chicken schnitzel and my friend had the burger. We also split an order of fries. The chicken schnitzel was crispy and flavorful, 10/10. The fries were also amazing - perfectly seasoned and crisp. My friend also really enjoyed her burger. Service was also great from beginning to end. All in all this was a great spot, and I will for sure be back! read more

It's also a cafe! It is rare when the food is amazing and the service better. This is a cute cafe in the Atwater Village area. My server was Jam - both her and the bartender are red headed so maybe family? lol anyway, I ordered the eggs and toast breakfast with an Americano. Dark egg yolk tells me organic, the bacon and eggs perfectly cooked, right amount of butter on the baguette slices and the arugula salad had a zesty and fresh dressing. I prefer smooth coffee so the iced americano was perfect as well. Definitely coming back in the future. And again, thanks for the great service. I was really uncomfortable at the bar and Jam found a way to make me comfortable at a table going above and beyond. Thank you! read more

Steps of service should be revisited for some employees. A situation occurred where two parties were greeted with menus ahead of our party which was seated first. One party had the full order taken with water brought over. When we asked to start our order we were denied service and told to wait for a different employee. We understand that maybe there was a specific person taking orders, however as a customer it did not feel very welcoming. Room for improvements are always needed. Thank you. read more

Not only is the food great (I tried the Schnitzel. Effing amazing!!!). But the staff are amazing as well. My daughter is going through a tough time and reserved a seat at the bar for Valentine's for 1. She wasn't going to let her sadness distract her from a good meal at a nice place. I surprised her there with flowers and even though the place was packed and tons of people waiting to get in or get a seat, they let me stay and even got me a seat next to my daughter at the bar and treated us as good as they could. I will definitely be back. Thanks to everyone at Bar Sinizki. Everyone visit. read more

Great food and super friendly service. The seatings outside feel casual yet cool. We'll be back:) read more

Best burger I've ever had. And the drinks were really good too. Will be returning soon

Cocktails are terrific here. The kielbasa has great snap. Would have appreciated more braised cabbage to compliment the spicy mustard and sausage. The pierogi is filling and tasty. There is a lot of bread on the menu and it is featured in their only dessert - bread pudding. The prices are all on the high side but it doesn't deter the crowds. The bar was crowded when we arrived and the tables filled up shortly after we arrived. read more

Had a wonderful lunch here. We enjoyed the Czeck style fried cheese as a starter. The coating was crispy and held the hot honey sauce. Very delish. For lunch we had the Bistro Burger which was cooked to perfection and juicy. The brioche. In was perfect. We also had the Jambon Buerrer baguette. The ham was great along with the butter and Pickels cucumber. It was so good. For desert we shared a bread pudding which was the best I have ever had. I highly recommend them and will be going back. read more

Bar Sinizki in Atwater Village is the kind of place where you walk in, order a drink, and feel like you're part of some underground society of hipsters and Eastern European grandmas. The cocktails? They're working on it. Then the food arrives, and here's the deal: it's like they hired an artist instead of a chef because these portions are tiny. We're talking "bite-sized and gone before you can really commit" small. Dumplings that vanish after one bite. Little crispy potatoes that leave you contemplating each morsel like it's a lost lover. Steak Frites should be Frites Steak. But man, it's good--so good that you forgive them. Just don't show up starving, or you'll be the person asking if they can grab you a lamb sandwich from Dune next door. read more

I only had drinks here so I'll have to do a second review once I've eaten. But as for the drinks, I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed about this spot. Maybe it's the hype or the location or the look, but I was expecting more. Bluntly, the bartenders didn't really feel that knowledgeable and the cocktails were full of tiny ice shards which quickly watered down the drink and really undermined its flavor. This means 1) that they use cheap ice; and 2) they don't double strain. I know that's a bit nerdy and nitpicky, but I would have expected more from the bar program at a place like this. read more

I'm walking distance and been a few times. It's small, but cozy. Impeccable European bistro atmosphere with food and drinks at similar quality. Menu's somewhat simple, leaning "lunch" but artisan ingredients elevate. Impressive cocktails with craft amaros and rare Euro liquors that are fun to try alone (similar to Nico's down the street). Pierogis - Must order! I've had elsewhere and didn't understand why they could warrant so much praise until I realized how much the brown butter sauce makes them insanely delicious. Raw Zucchini Salad - Not a lover of Zucchini, I was shocked how much I loved it. Perfectly balanced, but off menu now since out of season. Hopefully will come back :) Bistro Burger - Decadent. I understand the praise it gets, but I prefer a bit more balance with fresh veggies/texture. Trout Rillette Tartine - Pillowy soft, light, and delicious. Baguette & Butter - 3 types of bread with butter covered in sea salt. Dreamy simplicity that helps the craft bread pop. Salami Tartine - It was fine, but the Danish Rye bread was so good, it kind of outshines. Golden Hour - Have to specifically endorse this cocktaile because I've never had Suze and it was exactly the curiously unique flavor that's fun to discover. Haven't been for breakfast and the seasonally changing menu begs for revisits. This place is transportive with impressive effort put into menu, drinks, and atmosphere. Hard not to have a good time. Great neighborhood and hip people watching. read more

In our quest to find the best burgers in LA, we tried Bar Sinizki based on a list that someone published about burgers in LA. Whoever put that list together was wrong. The burgers at Bar Sinizki are OK at best. The burger is about the size of a McDonald's quarter pounder. They will not cook it medium rare, just medium or well done. That should have been a warning sign. Our burgers were cooked medium. They came with grilled onions, cheese, and sauce on a large potato bun. At $19, they are over-priced. I'd give the food 2 stars. The service was great--5 stars. We sat outdoors. There is street parking. read more
