    Rosemary Turkey Burger
    Christina D.

    The cutest little diner in WeHo! I came with friends for a late lunch, the portions were huge! Great value for the price and our server was so kind and attentive. He messed up the bill when we split it, but he fixed it right away. Will definitely come back!

    Crab Cake Benedict + avocado
    Zan L.

    We had a really delicious breakfast on this rainy Saturday morning. I would say it's one of the better breakfast options in West Hollywood. It's a true classic diner that has a lot of indoor and outdoor seating. They have a large free parking lot behind the restaurant so parking is really easy. Service was a bit slow for us today, but the food items arrived fairly quickly after ordering once we were able to. They have a fairly large menu filled with all the classic diner options. Today I chose the Crab Cake Benedict and was really satisfied with it. The cake had a great crab flavor to them and were really crispy. I added avocado, which I would highly recommend doing with this dish. I wish they would have hashbrowns as an option because the breakfast potatoes aren't nearly as good but that is a personal preference. The portion sizes are fairly large here so you will not leave hungry. I would recommend to anyone searching for a great breakfast or brunch option in West Hollywood. I plan to be back in the future to try more items.

    Green Eggs & Ham
    Tony T.

    I've been here twice and the food is not memorable. Which isn't a bad thing. I got the free eggs and ham and the ham was a bit chewier than I'm expecting like it tasted really processed. The eggs were decent since it was mixed in with some pesto and the potatoes were done well. If you're nearby I would recommend checking it out but the food isn't to rave home about but it's also not bad. Service is also quick but can be slow if you sit outside where they may not see you outside.

    Solid little diner in WeHo. One of the only ones open on a Sunday morning at 8am (surprisingly). Menu has a good range of options with something for everyone, herbivores to carnivores

    French toast. Skip it.
    Kelsey K.

    I'm really disappointed in this cafe because it's in my neighborhood and there are very limited options within walking distance. As you can see in the photo, the French toast was completely burnt and inedible, and the eggs scrambled that I got was swimming in oil -- just completely unappetizing, the whole thing. I didn't go back to return it because I have a baby and he had just fallen asleep when I got home, so I didn't want to disturb him. I had to throw the whole thing away. Wish I had a better experience. Not sure if this was a one-off or just how they are, but it's never busy so that's not a good sign.

    Bruschetta Lunch

    The place was really nice, decent food, nice decor. The service was very kind, defensively worth a stop.

    Joey's Breakfast
    Miranda T.

    Joey's Cafe is a gem! Went here unexpectedly after our initial reservation elsewhere got cancelled. There is seating indoors and outdoors, and it was fairly busy for a Saturday afternoon. The service was good, as the servers were attentive, but also gave us some time to browse the menu at our leisure. The ambiance was busy and diner-like, with some tables and some booths. Food was good! The iced matcha latte and chai latte were yummy, and we got to take them to-go too, which was nice, because they were actually bigger than expected (which is a nice surprise). Joey's Breakfast was a good portion, and I loved the whipped butter on the side. I also appreciated having the fruit addition and the options for the side of meat and bread. Overall, this was an unexpected meal, but so happy that we got to try it and we will definitely come back!

    Steak quesadilla
    Marcelino R.

    I love this place! They have Indoor and outdoor seating for everyone to enjoy. It's hands down my favorite spot to go meet friends for lunch or breakfast. It's a shame that their hours are so limited now. Highly recommend the steak chesadilla! It's so good and always hits the spot. It's a must visit if you are in West Hollywood.

    Met up on Saturday afternoon with my friends from the desert at their suggestion. I had not been to West Hollywood in ages and reveled in all the changes. Joeys is on a corner of Santa Monica Blvd next to a "Crossroads" store. They had several tables available outside and inside. You can also sit on a swiveling barstool at the counter if that suits your fancy! It wasn't too busy at 2:30pm so we were able to grab a nice big table outside. The service was good. *Plenty of free refills on our lemonade, ice tea and my Arnold Palmer!!! Great view to watch everyone pass by. (Which I love to do). The salmon salad and protein salad were good. Big servings here at reasonable prices. They are known for their breakfast and lunch. Conveniently located across from another one of my fav places! Hamburger Mary's!!! Best drag bingo in town. *plenty of meter parking *limited parking on side streets. READ THE SIGNS CAREFULLY to avoid a ticket. *there is a parking lot behind Joeys if you can grab a space. They share it with Crossroads.

    On the plus side, there was no wait at all on a Saturday at prime brunch time! Then I guess I could see why. I stopped in at Joey's because a friend was eating there so I just joined for a coffee and a pastry. I asked for a dirty chai with soy milk, which came out to $7.95. It was huge and gross. I also got a croissant to go with it, which looked and tasted like a 3 day old Costco croissant. Oddly, it was cut in half and toasted so it was dry and tasteless. Everything about this place is below par and expensive. To top it all off, we got the bill and after taking a look to split our tab, realized that the subtotal was $2 off the itemized cost and did not match what we were charged.

    Joey's is my favorite little neighborhood diner. It's a perfect place for that All American breakfast that feels like it's made with love. T They have fantastic smoothies with all kinds of fruit flavors and in combinations of fruit flavors. I just love it. Having a salad there @ midday is also quite good. Their salads are both hearty and tasty for sure. From the outside you'd never know that there's so much delicious goodness to be found inside, because it really is a rather unassuming place, but as I said, as far as a neighborhood diner, it's my favorite neighborhood. P.S. To be clear, remember that the "neighborhood" that I'm referring to is West Hollywood and so know that the bar is high.

    Chicken Fingers Lunch
    Fredy Z.

    A place I'm going to return to try the omelette and pancakes . They look so delicious when I saw it pass by and I want to give it a try when I'm there next time. However today I've tried the chicken Finger followed by a California Burger and Turkey Club . It was massively big but for the price I can see why now but it was delicious the French fries were fresh! You have the option to sit inside or out . Perfect since summer is here ! There was no waiting since I went early In the day and the service was amazing they were fast, is like they read the room if anyone wants something. Lots of regulars come here by the looks of it ! I'm looking forward to trying it again!

    Joey's Cobb salad, al fresco.
    Stuart B.

    I visited this spot on the very last day of outdoor dining before the new pandemic restrictions kicked in. They make a fantastic "Joey's Cobb Salad" that I used to order all the time. I'm happy to say it's just as good as ever. Especially if you like bacon! Normally, with an outside table you get a great view of Santa Monica Blvd. and all the happenings and things going around there. The take out is also easy and convenient. I always seem to be able to find parking on the street but there's a free indoor city lot nearby on Flores.

    Darling was on my list to try ever since I read about it on Eater. It eventually became one of 2…read morerestaurants that were the focus of my recent staycation in the West Hollywood/Beverly Grove area, the other was perennial favourite A.O.C. I was familiar with chef/owner (and James Beard Award winner) Sean Brock, having dined at two of his Husk restaurants (Charleston and Nashville), where he first gained fame and accolades. He is no longer affiliated with Husk or some other Nashville restaurants, but still has a pizza place there, so he is still bi-coastal. I can't say what drew him to SoCal, but is clearly enamored of our bountiful produce and purveyors, which he integrates into his "Heritage Southern", often live-fire, cooking. He's apparently quite a music lover also, hence the live DJ all-vinyl booth in the bar/lounge. Darling is on the northern end of Robertson between Melrose and Sunset. Many restaurants of note are nearby, including The Abbey, Craig's, SushiSamba. Many, including Darling, do not have valet parking, so that can be an endeavor you should allow time for. Darling is a pretty large, gorgeous and airy space, divided into an open-air-ish lounge/bar and a dining room towards the rear, which in turn is divided into 2 sections. The space used be the restaurant Soulmate, and looking at old pics still up on Yelp, it is clear many of the design features were repurposed for Darling, including the beautiful wood-beamed ceiling and booths in the dining room, the olive tree and retractable roof in the lounge, and the exterior. The impressive mural in the dining room appears new, as is the DJ booth. The weather was in the 90's during my visits, so the more A/C-controlled dining room was my choice for seating. Darling serves dinner Wed-Sat and brunch Sundays, so of course I had to try both. There's also a small Happy Hour menu Wed-Sat in the lounge/bar. Here's the lowdown: Dinner 1) Deviled eggs. A classic Southern snack, bougied up with bluefin tuna belly. Delish, with a slight kick, but just 2 per order. 2) Abalone and rice stew. Another winner (and smallish portion). Earthy, yet light, topped with a confit egg yolk. 3) The Darling dry-aged steak burger. Just 24 served per day. The stellar meat is a blend of 3 types of beef, mostly dry-aged prime, cooked over the live-fire grill. It was served simply with ketchup, cheese, raw onion and Dijonnaise , allowing the beef to shine. Served without accompaniments. 4) Sliced tomatoes with buttermilk dressing and tomato vine vinegar. A simple and refreshing taste of summer. 5) Blackberry sorbet Eton mess. Delish sorbet that was the perfect blend of sweet and tart. Eton mess is whipped cream and meringue shards. The Texas deer skewers and Anson Mills cornbread were also of interest to me; another time. Brunch 1) Sonora wheat pancakes. Pretty classic, with crispy edges, fancy Maison Bordier butter and maple syrup. 2) 5-fat fried chicken. Also available on the Happy Hour menu. I was told the chicken was heavily spiced, but not heat-spicy. Its red-orange hue made me pause with fear, but it was exactly as described. The seasoning is quite chili powder-forward (Ancho chili?). The chicken is boneless thigh meat (my fave chicken part), just like the Spanish fried chicken at A.O.C. Served with a vinegary hot sauce (didn't use), honey (used it all) and an assortment of pickles. The 5 fats used are chicken fat, lard, country ham, bacon fat and smoked butter. Quite different from A.O.C.'s version; apples and oranges. Try them both. 3) Watermelon sorbet with Bonny melon and lemon verbena. Another sorbet winner, even more refreshing with the melon. Their cocktail and wine offerings seem pretty extensive. My zero-proof pineapple concoction was fine and delish; I had it at both meals. Service and staff was excellent and oh so friendly--hostess, servers, busboys, manager. I wish I remembered the names of my servers for shout-outs; their names didn't appear on my checks. Speaking of checks, you have the option of paying via QR code or with a traditional paper check and table-side hand-held gizmo. I did both and recommend the traditional method to avoid the $3.99 "Platform Fee" for using the QR code. Lastly, I found the music pleasant and mostly retro (the DJ usually puts the album currently spinning on display), but very loud. Guests were yelling in order to converse. Hope to return, and maybe see Chef Sean DJ-ing.

The setup is really cool -…read morethe front half of the restaurant is a lounge/bar area with a partially open air roof that gives way to a tree growing in the middle of the lounge. The back half is a more traditional seating area with booths and beautiful murals. The restaurant has an interesting and creative cocktail list that was difficult to choose from. We tried the Paradis and Marigny No. 2. I preferred the Paradis - it was reminiscent of a tropical tiki drink. The Marigny No. 2 was also nice, floral, and refreshing, but strong. Our waitress recommended 2-3 dishes per person, so we opted for the deviled eggs (snack), cornbread (app), dry-aged steak burger (main), and rockfish with clams and grits (main). The deviled eggs and rockfish were my favorite. The eggs had a really rich flavor, and the tuna added a unique twist on an otherwise familiar dish. The rockfish had a perfectly spicy, buttery sauce, and the grits were the perfect accompaniment. I wasn't a fan of the cornbread; the predominant taste was of being burned, and the bread was flat and dense, rather than being fluffy. The tomato jam was definitely the surprisingly sweet star of that dish. Without the jam, the cornbread isn't very pleasant to eat. I also thought the burger was just ok, nothing standout, but solid. They only make 24 burgers a night, so ask your server if they're still available if that's what you're ordering. For dessert, we ordered the profiteroles with brown butter ice cream, pecan sauce, and dates. It was a perfect ending to the night - the dessert was super rich and decadent. Parking is limited to metered street parking or nearby parking lots. Service is warm and friendly without being overbearing, but can take a while. Overall, the experience was pleasant with some hits and some misses. The menu is certainly unique and overall worth trying if you're feeling a bit adventurous.

The food was just as memorable. The chicken Parmesan was everything you want it to be: crispy, flavorful, and topped with a rich, perfectly balanced marinara and plenty of melted cheese.

As we walked in, nothing caught our attention more than the brilliant lively atmosphere. As we took our seats we awaited what would surely be a culinary journey. We ordered the margarita pizza, the calamari, the meatballs, garlic bread, and the pasta pomodoro. Fortunately and unfortunately, our first dish of the night happened to be the garlic bread. The bread locked. It's garlic butter flavor, or that of flavor at all. if it was all we had ordered, Met Him At A Bar would surely be given one star, but thankfully they had more to offer. The meatballs for one held our attention much longer than that of the garlic bread. The flavoring in the meatballs themselves brought us straight back to our childhood straight back to our roots, as the creamy marinara sauce brought the dish to life. A simple yet elegant dish truly. For us, the calamari was simply there. It's maintained everything you want in a calamari yet added nothing new. It stood out to us not in a world of flavor, texture, and culinary experiences. The Margarita Pizza, however it was quite small. What it lacked in size was made up for in flavor. The melted mozzarella mixed with pizza sauce on the pizza to create a pool of flavor, lingering in the middle of the pizza until one slice is picked up and eaten. Lastly, the pasta Pomodoro. The sauce was thin, the pasta was overcooked instead of al dente. In the singular basil leaf stood atop the pasta, not for flavor, but to save the appearance of a disgraceful pomodoro. It's safe to say, Met Him At A bar may or may not be "Meating" us again... Most Sincerely, yours truly: Henry Pollock & Hayden Kalebic

You immediately feel the calm and these days, especially in the city, we can use a good deal of decompressing. It was almost an audible "aaaahhhhh" that my brain whispered when we sat down at our roomy booth. We were there for brunch and the menu was wonderful for me, a lifelong vegetarian. There were multiple items I wanted to try but I usually stick to an appetizer, main, dessert, and beverage. I am not a big eater at one sitting. Between us, everything we ordered was superb. The descriptions were pretty familiar, but the tastes were elevated. And the presentations were unique too -- see my photos. Michael, our server, was efficient but warm and friendly too. That makes such a difference. From beginning to end he took care of us, checking occasionally to get our enthusiastic thumbs-up, and then bringing us sturdy containers and a roomy thick shopping bag to take home the leftovers. We stuffed ourselves but still took home half of the generous portions we were given. The tab was beyond reasonable too, especially for Beverly Hills! Nice music -- not too loud, just enough to give a cheerful vibe in the background; clean appointments; quality furnishings; giant spotless windows; pretty wallcoverings; comfortable seating -- everything was just right, Goldilocks-worthy. This is the kind of place to return to again and again. Garage parking at the complex for $15 was so easy, clean surroundings in the neighborhood with some famous retail nearby for browsing, just 40 minutes from home. IOW, perfect!

    I've had this place on my bucket list for awhile and I'm sad to say that it was a bit of a let…read moredown. The atmosphere is really beautiful, and the service was wonderful, but the food is just way too expensive for what it is. I met up with my friend here for lunch on a Monday, and we had no problem getting a table, it wasn't too busy, and I was able to find street parking about a block down. Or you can pay $15 for the lot that's right behind it. I got the Fish Tacos and it was $30 for 2 sad little tacos and a side of quinoa rice. My friend got the harvest salad, added chicken, and a coke. For all that it was almost an $80 lunch. Insane pricing. This place is cute but not $80 cute.
