I noticed that Delilah's had a 'drive-thru' back in July which of course I'm a few months late for. Seemed like a cool idea since they offered food I actually eat so I was down and placed an order on ChowNow through Lilah's website (lilahsdiner.com)
That day, I felt like their Classic burger and shoestring fries would be most ideal. For some reason, the obvious wording on the description 'double pattied' slipped my mind and I encountered one huge-ass American cheese, special sauce+fixings burger busting out of its box. You also get a rather large portion of fries (shoestring is not my favorite but these were very good) but let's talk about this burger. I knew it was going to beat me; I would have been sufficient with one patty but even then, it was generously sized. Although it wasn't halved as I requested, it was prepared how I wanted it thankfully. This was also an extremely messy 4-napkin meal, so keep that in mind if you're on a date or something.
The girl who brought the food out to me was great, thanks Mary!
Returned about a week later to try the chicken tenders (minus fries this trip) and proceeded to gussy it up at home with mashed potatoes and vegetables. Fancy!
*IMPORTANT*
Although this concept is part of Delilah on 7969 Santa Monica Blvd, you actually pick up your order at Petite Taqueria, 755 N. La Cienega Blvd. So make sure you get this right by going to the correct restaurant. For some reason, I thought it was picked up at the Nice Guy (they're both on the same side of the street on La Cienega) but it's definitely Petite Taqueria, right next door to Poppy. There is a sign outside of this restaurant indicating this (see photos.)
If you are getting delivery, simply ignore this last paragraph.
Nobody picks up the phone listed on the site at any of the businesses that I tried (Delilah, Petite Taqueria, Lilah (two different numbers) so if you try to order by phone, most likely that won't happen. Their site connects you to ChowNow, but you can also order through Postmates (and probably others) for pickup/delivery. Minor increase of .01 on prices which is nothing new for such sites.
10/19-20: Just had my 3rd visit for a bacon bbq burger+fries. Another winner, this was a 2-napkin meal. Guy working today was great, I wish I would have gotten his name. Next time for sure.
Everything I've tried has been pretty good, looking forward to the mac and cheese next. I'm not sure but this could be the same food that Delilah's prepares, just with a more fun, whimsical presentation, and a lower price point. I highly recommend! read more
