    It's an Armenian restaurant with ballroom type - dancing waiters. The food spread is basically lots of food starting from appetizers to the kabobs. It's great for big parties. Customer service was nice. They had some tuna tartar and salmon tartar as appetizers and they were fishy. Not fresh. It came out warm. They had all the hummus and the other typical food you will find in a big Armenian food spread. It's good to go with a big crowd. They have a full bar with nice top shelf selection. Parking inside a building behind.

    Katsin was amazing! As you walked in you are greeted with a smile! The food was amazing we ordered almost everything lol and they were all great! The tuna tartar is amazing and fresh! The oysters were fresh and so good! The beets were amazing the steak was great! The mini kabobs were delicious the fries were great! We were celebrating a birthday so we got the dessert service and it was so much fun! And the pavlova they brought out was amazing!! Didn't have the eggy smell or after taste. The dancing and singing was amazing! Very classy and well done! The ambiance was so fun! Our server was amazing sadly I don't remember his name... The bathrooms were super clean!!!!! Even my 6 year old was impressed at how clean it was! Would definitely come back and will recommend to anyone looking for a fun evening in a clean environment with great food! Well done Katsin team!

    Rise brunch menu drinks

    Ok Katsin!! Came for the Rise Brunch Party and it was very nice!! R&B brunch with good food and drinks. It's a very spacious modern restaurant with exceptional customer service! Off the brunch I ordered the Caesar salad which came with bacon and chicken and it was actually really good. I'll give the food five out of five. For my drink I'll order the lemon drop and the passion D'or, Which was 5/5. I admired how they had a saxophone player which was very elegant! The customer service was really good and no rush!! The prices for hookah were quite expensive. When we came it was $150 then every hour it goes up $50 each hour.! Kind of crazy but mmmmmk lol I don't do hookah but it seems like the hookah was okay! I would come back here it's a fun brunch and good service! The music is bomb too! Played a lot of good music! They have valet parking for $18 or street parking.!

    Happy Birthday Ana!

    My work wanted to do a Christmas party just for the team, and we were able to get a reservation here for 16 people. Our group was so big that we even had an extra table for where we put our gifts for the gift exchange. I wish I could speak more on the names of the food that was ordered, but we went with what was recommended to us. Needless to say, the food was very delicious. The lamb was very well cooked and the pairings with the cheese, wine, salad and seafood were all excellent. Tim was super attentive to all our needs. I was actually surprised he managed to accomodate all of us very timely. One of the members of the team was also celebrating her birthday. So we brought our own cake, and when Tim brought the cake out, it went from an ordinary cake presentation to being on a platform and a smoking one -with dry ice and a lotta smoke! Parking was easy. There is street parking and there is dedicated resturant parking in the structure as well. Overall, my experience was very good and it was a lot of fun.

    We had an amazing time celebrating my moms birthday today, I had to leave a review because the ambiance, entertainment and service were all top notch and of course the food was very delicious, the place is beautiful, staff was very friendly, the young man who took care of us was so kind and friendly, we had so much fun! People were dancing, the show was fun and creative and of course the dancing waiters were great, loved the singer's voice, she did an excellent job! Live singing too! Will definitely be back!

    The space is super cute, the staff is fantastic, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. A perfect dining experience all around!

    Refreshing Katsin Heirloom Tomato Salad   The tomatoes were so fresh and had a sweet taste. Great starter (9/10)
    Mariam B.

    Everything about Katsin was a 10/10! The food, the service, and the ambience made it a great spot for a fun birthday outing We enjoyed multiple dishes family style, and everything was exquisite. (Food reviews listed in images below) Throughout the night, there was music and a great dance show. The entire restaurant was up on their feet! I even had the chance to participate in a dance myself and it was a great time. It is a great spot for a birthday, special events, and even a fun business meeting outing! I will be back again

    Grill octopus (delicious)
    Joann K.

    What an amazing experience I had today. From the food to the performance and service. Everything we ordered was delicious and cooked to perfection. Our server was so kind and so informative, he never left our sight, until it started to get really busy ^^ but he was so sweet. The servers here are also dancers, so you get a free show!!! They start dancing and singing at about 7:40ish so it's best to go at about 7:00. Make a reservation before you go, or you won't be able to get a table. It's gets really packed.

    I took my friend out for a fun night to enjoy the music of Paris Chansons at the very well-known Katsin Restaurant, and it was truly a night to remember. This was my third visit, and once again, Katsin exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived--starting with valet service--to the time we were seated, the experience was flawless. Every staff member greeted us with a warm smile, genuine hospitality, and exceptional attentiveness. The level of professionalism and care shown throughout the evening was remarkable and consistent. The entertainment was outstanding, creating an energetic yet elegant atmosphere that made the night feel special. The ambience was beautiful, the restaurant was impeccably clean, and the overall vibe was perfectly balanced--lively, welcoming, and sophisticated. For dinner, my friend ordered the trout, I enjoyed the Branzino, and we shared a Greek salad--every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The drinks were absolutely delicious and thoughtfully crafted, adding to the celebratory feel of the evening. Everything came together seamlessly: the music, the service, the food, and the atmosphere. Katsin offers a truly elevated dining experience, and I'm grateful to have such an amazing, professional, and high-caliber establishment right here in Glendale. Highly recommended for anyone looking for exceptional food, incredible entertainment, and top-tier service.

    The porkchop was so flavorful
    Rachel M.

    Let's just start with the ambience was beautiful. The food was very tasty. The entertainment was very entertaining and enjoyable while eating, but I will say that being that we were the only African-Americans in there as soon as we walked in, it was all eyes on us. also noticing how all the waitresses and waiters were catering to the other tables more than they were us, I feel like my waiter was less tentative to us.

    Meat and veggie platter which
    Mary B.

    We celebrated my 40th birthday here and we were so pleasantly surprised! This is a gem in the heart of Glendale. The service, attention to detail, and coordination of staff was top notch and comparable to many high end restaurants we've been to in Beverly Hills, Vegas, Paris, and other parts of Europe. The live entertainment is phenomenal with dancing and singing. Their food and drinks were done perfectly. We ordered appetizers to share, and the meat platter which had wagyu beef, lamb, pork etc and every single item was made perfectly!

    Kebab
    An E.

    Went back after a year the food portions are bigger and reasonable pricing now if you consider the ambience and the entertainment, I will recommend the food was delicious. Surface was great. Servers is very helpful and we enjoyed our dinner.

    Rocsii W.

    We had such an amazing experience at Katsin. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was beautiful and instantly gave a whole vibe. The establishment was spotless, the décor was stunning, and the energy was perfect for a brunch outing with friends. Our waiter, Ryan, was outstanding. His customer service was exceptional, he checked on us often, made great recommendations, and made sure our entire table felt taken care of from start to finish. I ordered the shrimp and grits with bottomless mimosas, and everything was cooked perfectly. My friends ordered the chicken and waffles, and they loved every bite. The food came out super fast, hot, and fresh. Even the bathrooms were clean, which says a lot about how well this place is managed. A special thank you to DJ Zee for inviting us out, the music added so much to the experience and really completed the vibe. Highly recommend Katsin for great food, great service, and a great time. We will definitely be back!

Not sure if there's a charge for that, but either way, it's a nice touch. They're open pretty late, and while the location doesn't have a bunch of other bars or spots around, the upside is tons of parking--which I totally love.

And we had to call her back over to ask for a second time. SMH. The food although flavorful was so ridiculously priced it was not even funny. I got a "ribeye ". Was literally eight thin slices of steak, like 1" x 1" size for $42! No, I will not be coming back here for so many reasons. The view is great. Castaways is definitely not what it used to be in the way of quality but at least you get more and you get the view. But definitely not worth it going to this place. It was quite a frustrating evening. Also, if you do decide to go here, just bring a coat when it's a little bit cooler in the evenings cause it does get cold up here and getting the staff to manage the heaters correctly is a whole other frustration. Oh, and valet is your only option for parking up here. It's kind of crazy because a few years ago you could just go park in the lot or the garage that's available there but now they're charging you $11 and it's chaos. I will say that the view up here is great though so if you're willing to forgo all of that for a view for like a one time date or something like that, it might be worth it

Danish Red Amber Lager Beer 5.50% ABV 16floz Draft ($5.00 HH; Reg. $8.00): Dark amber red color, malty allspice aroma, low body, malty sweet flavor, clean smooth finish, and malty sweet aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=QQjsTWce5Lstcxj5PowrYw Steak Fries ($7.00 HH; Reg. $9.00): This was an impulse buy as something to pair with my second beer. A decent portion-sized snack, each spud stick was hot, steaming, and thick and came with a side of ketchup. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=GVoy0nzxFUL6rHWaxNdG7Q SERVICE We were warmly greeted by a sole young woman behind the bar who handed us a menu and directed us to sit anywhere. After a few minutes of reviewing the menu, we each placed our order at the bar, our drinks were delivered quickly while the food took mere minutes to arrive at the table. We had to approach the bar each time we ordered something, but any empty glasses and plates were collected at the table. Once we closed out our tabs, we were thanked for coming as we headed out into the night. Everything was chill and easy - thank you! PARKING (Varied; FREE this instance): I parked in the nearby original Glendale Galleria parking structure and simply walked over first to The Americana then to this place. Otherwise, there was limited parking along the main drag of Brand Blvd. and other surrounding side streets, the nearby Glendale Galleria II parking structure, The Americana parking structure that offered validation, numerous public transportation options, and rideshares - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A dark cavernous speakeasy-like place with open space, various tables and couches strewn about, and a large long somewhat decorative bar with an impressive whiskey selection displayed behind it. I appreciated the exposed brick walls which gave it that old-time feel with a few framed pictures hung on them. Minimal natural lighting came through the front doors and windows while minimal electric ceiling lights filled in rest. There was at least one projection TV where we watched the Dodgers game while music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=SomLKsk1KVcemeOCHGOZfg ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL It was nice to slip into The Famous Bar for the first time in over a decade, and if I found myself spending time in downtown Glendale again, I'd consider another visit. Sadly, I try to avoid the highly congested area as much as possible. I loved the fact that they had a daily happy hour (4pm-7pm) and late-night SU-TH happy hours (10:30pm-close), so there was always a deal to be found. The drinks were the main reason you came, while the food was just an add-on. The prices were elevated, but you had a good menu selection of libations (nice local craft beer list) to choose from. The customer service was easy, friendly, and straightforward. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $42.00 BEFORE any discounts/tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice...

I convinced my wife that this was the place and it did NOT disappoint!!!!!! OMG, "destination-worthy". DO YOU WANT PERFECT SERVICE? Come here! Do you want a great breakfast???? Come here! You can choose inside or outside, both look great! Waiters that are watching to refill, give you whatever you need. I mean, fantastic service - for breakfast!!! Delicious meal...... no skimping. Great coffee. Parking..... I haven't been to a place this good since..... uh.... forever. I consider this the best place to get breakfast period. Too bad I was only visiting. I hope to come here again!

They have a very extensive menu here. There's a parking lot in the back and I also noticed a sign that said Complimentary Valet but there wasn't anyone at the stand. We walked in to a completely empty restaurant and saw one server (Denise) taking another table's order outside. I think she was the only employee on duty and doing everything by herself. After about 7 minutes, she approached us and asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside, and we said outside. Then she asked us if we preferred the smoking or non-smoking patio, and we chose non-smoking. I didn't even know this was an option nowadays, I thought smoking at restaurants wasn't allowed anymore. Apparently they also have hookah available every day starting at 5pm, both inside and outside the restaurant. I was really looking forward to trying their frittata but didn't know that breakfast was only until 3pm. Unfortunately I couldn't order it since we got here around 4pm. We stayed with our waters and I got a bowl of their Clam Chowder soup that came with 2 bulky and FRESH pieces of warm Focaccia bread. I also ordered a Chicken Pesto Panini which came with Grilled Chicken Breast, Basil Pesto Aioli, Tomato, Mozzarella, Fresh Basil, Roasted Peppers and Arugula on toasted Ciabatta Bread. I chose Fruit as my side. The ingredients were all fresh, but unfortunately the bread was toasted way more than my liking and the sandwich was really dry overall. There wasn't enough pesto and the chicken was a bit overcooked. I felt like I was hurting my tooth as I ate it. On the other hand, my soup absolutely stole the show. It was an outstanding bowl of Clam Chowder that really hit the spot after not having it for several years. It was piping hot, and again, very fresh. So flavorful and enjoyable. I savored every spoonful! My son ordered the French Turkey Sandwich that came with Roasted Turkey with Swiss Cheese, Avocado, Tomato, Pickles, Lettuce, Red Onions, Garlic Aioli on Sourdough Bread. He loved his sandwich and ate every crumb off his plate. I also had some of his sandwich and it was really good, way better than mine. Also nice portion for the price. He got his with a side salad that had arugula, tomatoes, red onion and lemon vinaigrette. After seating us and taking our order, Denise disappeared and Bryce took over. He was an excellent server and provided great customer service. I told him about my issues with my sandwich and he apologized and brought me some extra pesto aioli on the side. The place is very clean and everything looks very new and well-kept. Bryce mentioned they've been around for about 10 years but did an extensive remodel during COVID. I'd also like to mention that the tap water tasted so good. No nasty aftertaste like some other restaurants. Even their glasses were beautiful. Thank you management, Bryce and The Corner. We will be back another time to try the same sandwich and see if there's any improvement. We will also try more things, including the Frittata. Both restrooms were fully stocked and super clean!!

For starters I tried the tuna tartare with ponzu and avocado and salmon sashimi with the truffle zest paired with the eggplant carpaccio - absolutely delicious. Every bite felt fresh and well balanced. The Le Brand salad with eggplant and chili sauce was also a standout, bright and flavorful. I have to say, the pasta choices are elevated, especially the orzo tartufo with mushroom and truffle and the spaghetti oro nero with black caviar which was the perfect touch of flavor and boldness, both rich without being heavy. For mains, I tried the salmon filled with grilled asparagus and the grilled octopus with remesco sauce. Don't ask me how I was able to scarf all this down - it was too good to pass. We saved what little room we had left for dessert, the Le Brand Cheesecake and mille-feuille wrapped up the night perfectly. Great atmosphere, great service and a menu worth trying over and over again.

The atmosphere during the performances is vibrant and enjoyable. However, for me personally, the music played during the breaks between live sets is way too loud. It makes it difficult to have a normal conversation at the table, which is a big downside for me. Also, the lighting throughout the restaurant is very dim. While it may be part of the ambiance, it makes it hard to take nice photos -- and nowadays that definitely matters. Overall, I still enjoyed my visits, but I hope they consider adjusting the volume and lighting to make the experience more comfortable.
