Wife and I have not had Happy Hour for a long time. Luck would have it we were both got off work early so we decided to go to Blair's. It was fantastic! Great little HH menu with very reasonable prices. And of course the food is always good there. Favorite of the meal was the cheeseburger, delicous. Salad, meatballs, pizza and bruschetta always good. A huge shout out to Nick the GM at both locations. He was truly a gentlemen and extremely hosipitable. When you and your better half have time, Blair's for HH and dinner, you won't be dissappointed! read more

This time, the honey peperoni pizza was tough. The pasta carbonara a little bit sticky and the meatballs lacked seasoning . I also found the house salad to be very average with very few pickles. The only pasta I liked was the sausage one. The garden is nice though and the atmosphere quiet and condusive to conversations. read more

Visited this spot for a GNO with 3 of my best girls. We are all local, but had never tried this spot before so we wanted to give it a go. We had made reservations, but I don't think it was absolutely necessary, given the time we went (Pretty Early Dinner). There were less than a handful of parties at the restaurant. Anyways, upon arriving we were asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside, which we decided to try al fresco dining for our date. We were so glad that we did too because little did we know their back patio seating area was absolutely gorgeous! I wish we took more photos inside that area, but unfortunately, me and my friends are NOT good at that. :) BUT AGAIN - it is so cute and quaint. We loved it. The service was a little more than fair. I wish they were a little more attentive given there weren't that many patrons while we dined, but it's alright. It wasn't too bad. The people who did interact with us were kind and we appreciated that aspect of it. Now the food! We started with some bread and butter (didn't upload a pic), which wasn't anything special. And we also ordered the bruschetta as an appetizer. Was slightly disappointed because the toasted bread was EXTRA toasty to the point that it was burnt a little too much for us to fully enjoy it. The actual bruschetta part was yummy, but the overpowering taste of char threw it way off, so that's rated a 7/10. We also ordered fries which were also okay, and also rated a 7/10. Our entrees included the meatballs and polenta, the short ribs, the Tonnarelli w/ Pomadoro, as well as the Pepperoni, Jalapeno and hot honey pizza. The meatballs and polenta were good, but not something we really raved about. The Polenta was made really well, but I remember we did comment that the meatballs could be better. We might also have been a little bias as our favorite meatballs are actually made by one of the girls eating with us. This was rated a 7.5/10. Another 7.5/10 rating was the pizza. I currently frequent another pizza spot where I get the exact same order, and this one just didn't hit the same Yummyness level as that spot. I feel like the hot honey could be made better to elevate it's overall taste. The Tonnarelli was also Okay. I want to say it kind of left the same impression as the meatballs, so it was good, but it could have been better. Lastly, me and the girls favorite was the short ribs. Because why wouldn't it be?! It was well cooked and so incredibly tender. The only reason it's ranked a 8.5/10 is just because I have had better, but it definitely was GOOD! I definitely see myself coming here again to try the other dishes. Cheers & HAPPY EATING! :) read more

I freaking LOVE this restaurant!!!! From the fresh bread, to the hand made pasta to the delectable sauces to the divine wine list, to the very personal service. I'm in love. I'm so grateful to a business that invests this much soul and heart and humanity into what they do. Thank you guys. read more

Such a nice relaxing place with a great ambience! You can sit either in the back patio which has such a quiet atmosphere or inside where the lighting is perfect for a nice dinner date. The food is delicious and honestly at a reasonable price. Most dishes are shareable and the flavors are exquisite. The service is also very welcoming and efficient, if not for the little wait from time to time for the main courses. read more

Food is amazing, the service is top notch an the patio is so pretty. And did I mention Happy Hour? You won't be disappointed

Stopped by for happy hour early dinner! Theres a good selection of entrees and appetizers specially made for happy hour, like cheeseburger (without fries), pizza, various pasta dishes, and appetizers. Everything tasted and looked good, though carb heavy if you're looking out for that. The pizza was a little saucy but the bread crust was great and dipable with the provided ranch. Theres an outdoor seating area in the back as well as a large indoor area. Restrooms are nice. We parked on the street, just read the signs. read more

I have always wanted to check out the original Blair's in Silverlake but the one in my neighborhood will do! Came here for some main dishes and happy hour. Honestly, happy hour is a great option if you're looking to catch up with some friends or grab a quick bite if you're in the neighborhood (Or just trying to use your AMEX Resy credit). Happy Hour Portions are the same as the regular menu portions. Calamari was good with the aioli. The Calamari is a mix of small rings and tentacles if you are particular about your calamari. The bread for the Bruschetta was amazing though I feel like it is missing something. I would probably recommend some sort of thick balsamic. The steak was good with the creamed spinach but a little too salty for my liking. I don't know what it is about the cheese pizza but the cheese made it my favorite. Parking is street parking. Burger was decent and read more

Stopped by at around 5:30PM--lovely ambience and very friendly service. Chanel was especially sweet and attentive. Food-wise, nothing really stood out to me: *Market salad - Pretty good. Mostly tasted like a regular Caesar with just occasional hints of seasoning. *Bread and salted butter - dry, very seedy bread; butter didn't add much. I didn't like the caraway seeds. *Pea gnocchi - dense gnocchi with light pea flavor and not enough sauce. *Bolognese pasta - something about the flavor didn't sit right with me. There's a unique ingredient that I couldn't put my finger on, but I ended up eating anyway since it was the most savory out of the two past dishes we ordered. Nice spot to meet a friend, but I don't see myself coming back. read more

Our server named Jacob was the best server ever. The burger was delicious and they should never change the burger recipe. I would love if they had garlic aioli. Patio is great for the vibes. read more

If you're looking for outstanding pizza, look no further. The crust on their pizza is phenomenal. The best pizza in the area in my opinion. The Fried Calamari is a Crispy Perfection. For an appetizer, the Fried Calamari was a must try, and it did not disappoint. It was incredibly fresh and perfectly crispy without being greasy. It was an excellent start to the meal. I also enjoyed an Aperol Spritz, and it was perfectly mixed refreshing, crisp, and the ideal balance of bitter and sweet. 10/10 recommend. read more

Had a fantastic dinner on their charming patio last week. I loved their mushroom gnoccheti, which actually had a really good amount of mushrooms - not like some other Italian restaurant that feel like placing 5 slices of mushrooms on top of pasta is enough. Will be back for more! read more

Went to Blair's on a Thursday afternoon for their happy hour and was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the food was. The restaurant itself the decor is beautiful, dimly lit, giving off romantical vibes. There was actually a lot of groups and couples and families at the restaurant which was nice to see. They also have an outdoor patio, which is really nice and cute as well. A lot of candles nicely decorated. My friend and I got a glass of white wine off of their happy hour menu, which was delicious crisp refreshing and we also got some of their appetizers. We started off with their olives, which were amazing. I love olives, and these olives were super delicious. Very flavorful. We also got the bruschetta which was amazing. I don't like raw tomatoes, and I tried it and I ate it all. It was well seasoned very fresh. The bread was amazing and thick cut of bread that held up the bruschetta well and we also had their garlic fries, which were also delicious. Lastly, my friend and I both got pastas which are homemade every day and it was amazing. Now, when it comes to the service, the waiter that served us was awesome. He was kind he was attentive. He was on top of his service and it was a nice. Definitely coming back to Blair's again and would highly recommend it. read more

Very good food, service, ambience. It's not stuffy, no attitude but high quality food. Nice wine list.

Came in on an early Saturday evening as we were looking to try someplace new (to us; don't know if it's NEW) and we're glad we did! Cute big open room, patio in the back, staff is helpful with suggestions. We shared the meatballs in polenta, I had gnochetti with sausage, kale and pecorino, hubby had penne ragu bolognese. This is great pasta, which they make on site daily. $25 corkage but why not? We'll definitely go back! read more

Been wanting to go to the Silverlake location but didn't have a reso so we went here. Wasn't a fan of the layout. It's just kinda open. I feel like it has a cafe feel better than restaurant feel. Staff, though friendly, seemed like they were more interested in polishing glasses at the bar that was also the host stand. Could hear their conversation whole meal. Food took a really long time to come out. Nothing on the menu really popped out to me while reading. The pasta I chose, I think it was the gnocchetti with mushrooms, was super yummy! However I think there was anise in the seasonings on the breadcrumbs (I HATE ANISE) and my last bite had a large amount of it -___- BUT, still 5/5. I'd be down to keep trying more from here because my dish was so great! But definitely want to go to the other location at least once. read more

In this post-covid world, where you need to have everything planned and reserved weeks in advance, it feels extra special to stumble upon a great spot with a friend. We were in search of a last minute spot on a Friday night and were seated right away without a reservation. The ambiance was so beautiful, unpretentious, and cozy. We ordered the bruschetta burrata and our server pointed us to a bottle of Mas de Cadenet rose. We shared the hot honey pizza and the guanciale pasta. Everything was incredibly delicious and lended itself to one of those beautiful start-of-summer nights. read more

Super cute and cozy ambience. Love the back patio, so romantic , feels like you are at someone's backyard. Even indoor is cute with candles on. Staff are friendly. The food is delicious however the pizza selection on menu is very odd selections, where is the margarita with mozzarella pizza? Jalapeño on pizza, but why? Some classic Italian toppings would be move in pizza, ex arugula, prosciutto. The menu we saw online was different with the menu they gave us on table. One or two pieces of bread with olive oil and vinegar would be nice to provide. They rush you very much, we sat and literally our server came to take our order, I mean slow down people and let us breathe and look through the menu. The food came out super fast, everything is fast paced and it's not like they are full. Lots of tables empty. I don't understand what is the rush, let people sit and enjoy. Overall it's was good. read more

Not sure why my original review didn't show up in Yelp anymore, and it wasn't moved to the "not recommended reviews section" either. It just disappeared. (super sus, Blair's .) ** original review continues below ** Zero star. Made reservation for an outdoor patio seating at 8:00 p.m. Got there right at 8 p.m. Checked in with the guy who appeared new to the restaurant and a little clueless. After 10 minutes of waiting in front of their cash register area (can't really miss us, we were standing right there), I check again with another individual who appears to be more personable to make sure we were checked us in, and was confirmed that we were and will be seated shortly. Another 25 minutes went by with absolutely no updates at all, meanwhile, others without reservation were already seated, I told the clueless guy please forget about our reservation since they are too busy. The guy acted as he could care less. I understand that restaurants are short staffed and patience is often extended, however, it was incredibly rude to not even update your customer with a simple "we will be you shortly." After 40 minutes of standing in front of the cash register, we left. I took a picture of their front outdoor patio as we were waiting, it was empty. Never get to try anything and not interested in doing so anymore. Very disappointed on how they manage the restaurant. read more

The prices here do not match the quality of the food/drinks. Same prices and you could be at bestia in dtla. So it's hard to really be okay with subpar pasta and wine. To say you are a wine bar but only offer 4 reds by the glass (and them all being rated quite low) but charging on average $20 per glass is really amazing. This is not a wine bar by any means and should be removed from the category in yelp. They just have wine. I have had 5 of their pasta dishes, and nothing is memorable. Honestly Rao's sauce would be a welcome substitution for most of their red sauces. Their pasta is homemade, but it's hard to understand this if you go to a place like macheronni republic in dtla whose pasta is exceptionable. Same ballpark for prices and have numerous dishes to choose from. So why am I here? The place is cute, and it's convenient. But ultimately that's what you are paying for: convenience. Most likely families in the area who just don't want to deal with driving farther. If you are looking for quality to cost. I would try one of the mentioned restaurants above - you will leave much more satisfied. read more

Loooooooove Blair's ER!!! Great ambiance (love the outdoor patio), food, service!!! It is our granddaughter's favorite place for a celebration and TBH, ours too!! It's all about the carbs and salads--and an amazing hamburger for dad--to me!! Must check out their HH!!! read more

Two words! Happy hour!!!! I would definitely check this place out if you like good pasta and salads!!!! I sat in the patio and it was beautiful! Check this place out! read more

Really great vibes and excellent food! The back patio is amazing !! Wonderful for families too

We had a fabulous meal at Blair's in Eagle Rock. It was our first time and it was so lovely. Channel and Nick were so kind and welcoming. We started with the Bruschetta, burrata and tomato. So delish! I wish I could add black truffles to it! The minestrone soup, meatballs with polenta, yellowfin tuna crudo and gnocchetti with sausage and kale was amazing. And they have 1903 on tap!! read more

The food is always amazing at Blair's and they're very welcoming. Get the yellowfin crudo and the mushroom gnochetti.

My wife and I had a great night here. Staff was excellent. We spoke with 3 separate waiters. They all felt human and attentive with humor and grace. Food was excellent! Desserts were decadent but not overly sweet. The back patio far corner was a romantic table surrounded by greenery. I think had the best seat in the house. Classy but not uppity. We look forward to returning. read more

This is home, but better. If they had a lounge chair and ottoman, I'd never leave. The staff is friendly, kind and patient. The food is so delicious and fresh. Love! If you don't know wines, don't be afraid to ask for help. Check out the back patio for lovely alfresco dining. read more

I'm so sorry, but this is the worst pizza that I've had in all of LA. The crust was overworked and rock hard and honestly tasted like a Totino's frozen pizza. Also extremely overpriced for how mediocre it is. Our server also didn't know anything about the wine. Not ever going back. read more

Had my birthday dinner at this location. My group sat outside which was a good choice because we were able to talk all night. Chanel was our waitress and she was so sweet and patient! The food was very yummy, I specifically came for the arugula salad and I was not disappointed. read more

Food was absolutely delicious. We sat in the patio and the ambience and service were fantastic.

Chef seems to have changed here since our last visit. Pizza sauce was not to my liking. Wine recommendation, meh. I'll definitely skip the Spanish wine next time. Pomodoro tasted great but the pasta looks commercially sourced? Guess I'll have to stick to the meatballs, bread and salad next time. read more

service is amazing, vibes are classy and comfortable. we shared four items between six people and it still came out around $30 per person. the portions are on the smaller end and i wouldn't say that the food was as good as the price but i had a great time overall and enjoyed it! read more

Delicious food, charming ambiance (in particular the patio), and excellent service! Our waiter was attentive without being hovering, and he had such "sense" (knowing that we were sharing our plates, he brought extra silverware and plates, when we asked for a new wine glass because a fruit fly fell in, he replaced the glass with another wine!) We will be back to dine with other friends. read more

Me and my friends came on a Saturday night and it we were seated right away. The server was fast and attentive but my friends didn't feel the friendliness. It was quite relaxing and chic ambiance. We only got pastas here and I got the Radiatore Guancale, which for some reason lacked flavor. Given the price of it, it was so not worth it. I wish I tried more dishes cause it seems like other reviewers liked other dishes. This particular pasta just was not par to other pasta dishes I've tried in other Italian restaurants so far. Parking might be challenging since they only have street parking. I might give this place another try again since other reviews look promising. read more

Traditional Italian on an amazing back patio We live close and have stopped into Blair's twice in the last month. Both times we opted to be seated on the heated back patio. The ambiance is great and the music selection is also relaxed My partner HATES pasta & Italian food but he's a huge fan of Blair's pasta dishes. My guess is that this place is more traditional Italian and less American Italian We've had the gnochetti, fontina pasta & meatballs with polenta and all have been outstanding. I'm surprised to have not seen this restaurant at full capacity with a wait.. even on a Saturday night We will be back with friends & family in the coming months! read more

We love Blair's! My wife and I have been to all the notable Italian restaurants in the area (Union, Marina, Bestia, etc) and Blair's competes with the best of them. The food is always phenomenal clearly made with the highest quality ingredients, the service is incredible yet comfortable, and a wonderful indoor decor. We love it so much we had our wedding reception here last year, and it couldn't have been more perfect. As a result, we've tried just about the whole menu and there isn't a dud on there. The whole menu is our favorite but some notable items we recommend are the funghi pasta, the Pomodoro, shrimp vodka, and bruschetta w/ burrata. Really can't speak highly enough about Blair's. You will not be let down. read more
