I really like that this feels like someone's home and kitchen. It's beautiful candle lit with young, hip locals. We really enjoyed our meals, I started with the Brussel sprouts and a few cocktails. The drinks are very light and refreshing, I appreciate the drinks are not too sweet and very well balanced. One child ordered the pasta AND Burger, my other child ordered the kids steak plate with fries. My husband had the little beast burger and I had the Indian Salmon. Everything was very tasty and it's a great place to have dinner with friends, date or family. Highly recommend!

When Little Beast first opened in 2013, I lived within walking distance but never had the…read moreopportunity to go. It's changed hands since then; however, new owners Chef Monique & Chef Paul have stuck to the original focus. (They also own Cindy's across the street.) The restaurant is a charming 1911 Craftsman bungalow. Inside emits a cozy vibe & warm ambience - just as if you were in someone's home. It's also a great date night spot if you're looking for someplace romantic. Menu offerings feature New American comfort food. Dishes change seasonally, as do the creative craft cocktails but the popular Little Beast Burger is a staple. Al fresco dining is available in the enchanting back patio, and there's a cute little parlor to chill in while waiting for your table. (Reservations are highly recommended.) I passed by enroute to another engagement and saw a parking spot, so I decided to stop in for a quick drink. The darling hostess asked if I had a reservation. I told her I didn't but was hoping to have a drink at the bar. The bar is tiny and can accommodate about 6 people. Krista the bartender/beverage director was fantastic. She was personable & friendly and we had a nice conversation during my visit. I ordered the Passion Fruit Margarita made with house infused passion fruit tequila. It was delicious & nicely balanced. I enjoyed my cocktail & visit here. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back for the full dining experience. *$35 corkage fee. Limit 2 bottles. *Street parking - read signs. *Live music Wednesdays 7 - 9 pm back patio.

Already I'll be back again for a 3rd visit sometime soon. The staff were so friendly. Everyone who we interacted with, from the hostess to our waiter, were all just very friendly and it made us feel extremely welcomed into their restaurant. As for the food, everything was amazing. Probably can't go wrong with anything you order here. So far in my two visits to Yicha I've tried the following: 1. Bossam - ordered this both visits... truly amazing. First time having Bossam and it changed my life lol. The pork was cooked so perfectly.) 2. Bulgogi Burgers - wow. So good. The patty was juicy. The aoli was so tasty. Very filling. 3. Chicken Wings - also super good. Loved the "K-Ranch" sauce! The sauce was so good I even used it with the Bossam haha. 4. K-Town Nachos - I've never had nachos like this before! The crispy rice cakes were a unique take but really enjoying take on nachos. 5. Kongguksul - It's not something I would normally order as I'm not usually a fan of cold noodles, but since I was with a group and we ate family style it ended up on our list and I actually really liked it! First time I've enjoyed cold noodles. 6. Fuji Apple Eggrolls - Amazing. Never had any type of an egg roll dessert before. It was extremely flavorful and a great way to end our dinner.

When my friend suggested getting together at Yi Cha I was happy to have the opportunity to go back…read moreand try their food since I had already been there for drinks. (FYI - The cocktails are fantastic.) We sat at the bar so we could watch a World Cup match and ordered a few items to share: Loaded Kimchee Cheese Fries, Banchan of the Day, & Gochugaru Peanut Brittle. Since Chef Debbie Lee is famous for her Korean fried chicken wings my friend got the Gochu Buffalo Chicken Wings. The peanut brittle was made with soy & chili. It was slightly sweet with the right amount of savory. It was also addicting AF. The Banchan was marinated cucumbers. It was flavorful and tasty. The fries were perfectly cooked and topped with yummy goodness. They also went well with the K Ranch dressing that came with the wings. My friend said the wings were exceptionally good. We enjoyed our food down to the last bite and even had a chance to meet Chef Debbie.

We sat outside, which was perfect for a quieter, more intimate dinner. A train passes by every so often, which gave it a cool New York vibe, but next time I'd probably sit inside. The interior looked much more lively and energetic, and they even have an upstairs seating area. We ordered the biscuits, tuna tartare, shrimp, a burger, and fries, and everything was fantastic. The biscuits were easily the highlight. Warm, buttery, crisp on the outside, and incredibly comforting. They reminded us of an elevated version of the classic Pillsbury biscuits, in the best way possible. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely come back. Great food, great atmosphere and service, and a really charming location. Highly recommend!

Such a cute little restaurant in South Pasadena. My friends and I went to Cannonball to celebrate…read moremy birthday and it was the best decision ever. We sat inside the restaurant but you can also reserve outdoor seating. The staff was very welcoming and too the time to explain the menu to us. Their dishes are shareable and I suggest about 4-5 dishes for a party of three. Off their menu we ordered the fried calamari, the buttermilk biscuits, yellow fin tuna tartare, the fideos clams and the barbecue chicken. Everything was delicious but our favorite was the buttermilk biscuits! Please keep in mind that the biscuits take about 20 minutes to make so please order in advance. Overall the food and ambiance were delightful and I can't wait to go back! For parking, there is street parking around the area but may be difficult since there are quite a few restaurants around sharing rhe space. There is a public parking structure down Meridian street, near heirloom bakery. We went on the weekend and the parking structure was free to park.

Been wanting to try Dunsmoor for months and I finally had my chance. The hype is 90% real…read more First off - yes, the cornbread is amazing. Warm, sweet, great flavor, buttery and crispy. Absolute perfection. Next time, I'm ordering two. The pork and green chile stew was also very tasty. It was tender, hearty, and felt super cozy. It wasn't, however, something I'd absolutely HAVE to order again (the cornbread is). The Carolina rice was the one thing I didn't thoroughly enjoy. It was a little too seafood-forward for my palate and not something I'd want to have again. My entree was the porkchop with a side of their buttery chive mashed potatoes. The porkchop was the best porkchop I've ever had in my life. Ever. Cooked to perfection, perfectly seasoned. I went a little feral and downright chewed at the bone. It was so, so good. Dessert was the sticky date pudding and that was also very delicious. Service was friendly but a little slow. All in all, I'm absolutely looking forward to coming back. I've got their ribeye on my radar for my next time.

Highlights: cornbread & chili stew definitely two must gets. Only reason I'm not giving a five is because I do believe it's a tadddd overhyped for what it is, and didn't love the concept of the community table. Overall definitely coming back and a spot worth trying !

They have food and the food is decent , pretty basic bar food but hits the spot. Their drinks are always good! They're made well and fast. Service is great. The bartenders are always attentive even in a rush. Ambiance doesn't get better than this. A retro arcade that offers a great vibe for a date night or even with a group of friends! Overall , I love the Barcade. Will always come back.

Still have never actually eaten here... but I've been here enough to talk about it…read more First off, this place is BIG. Like actually big. Good for birthdays, group hangs, events, all that. You're not cramped in here fighting for space. Game-wise... don't come here expecting anything crazy. There's nothing super serious for hardcore gamers, no rare cabinets or anything you're gonna geek out over. It's more like solid, familiar stuff. That said, it does work really well as a date spot because there's a lot of co-op games, so you're not just standing there awkwardly -- you actually have something to do. Now the food... I still haven't gone deep into it, but the wing deal is actually a good deal for these times, which is rare. That alone makes it worth pulling up on a Tuesday. Menu is kinda big though, and anytime I see a big menu like that I start side-eyeing the kitchen a little bit... like yeah some of this gotta be frozen But overall? It's a good spot for wings and beer without spending Ye Rustic money. If you're trying to keep it chill and not blow your wallet, this is a solid move. Not a gamer spot, not a foodie spot... just a good hang.

We absolutely loved Hermons. It is hard to get a reservation. Guest stay longer? I did. The food is…read moreamazing. We had almost everything on the menu and it didn't disappoint. Loved the burger! Probably the best I have had. Definitely would get the potato fritter. garlic bread , scallop crudo, and chicories salad. If you don't know what chicories are ask. (It's not the normal salad) Burger is great. Lasagna Vongole is aa slightly whimsical pasta, rich and delicious. Vegetarian mushroom Bougon is rich very satisfying and they have a wonderful list of red wine that can accompany perfect pairing. The baked Alaskan is thoughtful and unlike the traditional but fantastic

More often than not, these all-over-socials and hyped up restaurants are underwhelming and…read moredisappointing, but Hermon's is not one of those!!!! Yes, reservations aren't super easy to get, but not impossible either. Definitely recommend showing up w/ a resy. I had written a note on the reservation mentioning that we were celebrating and usually these messages never get any recognition. But Hermon's took note and greeted us at our table with mini champagne glasses for each guest. Whaaaatt!!! Really loved that attention to detail. The vibe of Hermon's is cozy, romantic, and with some epic decor. It's really gorgeous in there. There was a lot of love put into every corner and it shows (starting off with their delicious flamingo estate hand soap in the bathroom, lol). Ok yes... now for the important part: FOOD! Though this is a great spot for a romantic date night I recommend coming in a group of 4 so you can order a lot more dishes to try! The garlic bread was so incredibly buttery and warm and delicious. The loaded potatoes had fresh shaved parm with an incredible texture in the layers of the potato. The sheet pasta was sooo tasty. Desserts 11/10 Absolutely worth the hype. I will be back!!

Today was my second time visiting this place. I walk over…read morehere once a year. It was 12:08 and the place already had about 3 people in it. I was planning to have a few beers again but when I saw the prices and played it safe. Had ONE 16oz beer $9.25 and the final price was $11.56! Obviously added charges ( I did leave a tip so it really cost me $13.56) Seriously it's 12 noon on a Tuesday??? I've traveled to many states and also overseas and have paid this much for a TOURIST location. Highland park is not that kind of place where charging this much for a single beer makes sense. Will I come back? Absolutely not I'm reading lots of reviews and seeing proof of this place up charging customers and now I'm telling you the same this place is not worth your hard earned money. IF this place served 20oz pints my review would not have been so concerning. My advice to this business is lower your prices or more people will be opting out of this place. I was planning to bring my wife sometime but on second thought I don't think it's worth it. I can spend this kind of money at a more upscale bar with a coastal view. There was a man sitting at the very end of the bar with his laptop and he acted like he was on something. Kept getting g up and walking behind the bar to grab canned drinks over and over. He must have been an owner/manager? My man, maybe if you stopped drinking your own supply the beer prices would be lower. Try to taste your food the speed you were eating looked like you were about to have a heart attack. Pros; it's a bar that opens at 12 Cons: ridiculously high beer prices
