cinnamon roll

Made a reservation for Saturday morning and had a really good experience overall. Street parking was surprisingly easy, and they also offer valet with validation which is nice. There's an Alfred Coffee on the first level too, which I loved. I got there a bit early and they let me hang out by the pool/bar area while I waited for my friends -- super chill vibe. I ordered the eggs benedict with potatoes and a side salad, and everything was really good. One of my friends got the hanger steak (didn't try it, but it looked great). I also ordered a grapefruit drink -- really refreshing. Service was attentive without being over the top, which I appreciated. Only downside for me: the pancakes. We got a half stack and they were like $12 for small ones... honestly not worth it. Also, there's an automatic 20% service charge, just something to be aware of. Bathrooms were clean, music was good, and the whole place had a fun "cute casual but still dressed up" vibe. Definitely a good spot if you're celebrating something.

I think this was their French dip sandwich with sweet potatoes and it was so good! I truly wasn't expecting it to be so flavorful and well balanced-- the meat and cheese with the pickled onions The au jus was really good too! Not too salty. And you can't go wrong with some sweet potato fries and sauce to dip! Service and space were amazing as well!! There's AC so don't even worry about it being hot with the window design.

My new favorite brunch! It's on a rooftop of Line Hotel and has an amazing greenhouse ambience. The food was soooo good. I really enjoyed the eggs benedict with ham. The hollandaise sauce with the poached egg and ham was just perfection. I liked the crispy potatoes and the salad it came with as well. The potatoes were the perfect crispiness level and the salad was a refreshing yuzu like taste. The avocado toast was surprisingly really good! I thought it would be more simple but it pleasantly surprised me! I liked how they add cucumber and pickle veggies along with the microgreens on top.

Came here to catch up with a friend for brunch. Food: If you come, come only for the aesthetic ambiance. The food was not so great. It was cold when it was first brought out! The ingredients did not taste fresh. The potatoes were slightly hard to eat. I couldn't even finish it. The sausages were difficult to bite into. I'm not sure how breakfast food could be messed up this badly. The eggs were alright. My friend also did not really like her plate too. Service: We were seated pretty quickly as there was no line. It was relatively empty at the time. Our servers were kind and brought out our food in a timely manner. Parking: $10 valet. There's no free parking. Overall: I wouldn't come back. The food was below mediocre for me. It was definitely pretty though seeing all the plants around you while you eat. I liked how the tables had mini flower vases in the center. Very aesthetically pleasing but if you're looking for quality food, I'd double think before coming here!

Branzino

This place is pretty good. We came here for the Dine LA week. I'm not sure how representative that is of their general menu. This is at a second floor of a cool looking hotel. They do have valet parking which the restaurant validates. I assume you could park nearby on the street but not totally sure. The set menu was interesting. I liked my appetizer of ahi tuna though it was nothing super exciting. The beef I had was good though it was on a weird mash that I later read was sweet potato - and it was just a bit too sweet. I did like the beef which was tender and the swiss chard was a good side. The dessert was really good. This restaurant looks like a greenhouse. It seemed like it was only maybe a third full. I imagine it would be an easy place to meet if you are staying at the hotel, but did seem a bit pricey for what you got. The service was fine but they told us we couldn't split the bill three ways, only two ways. I don't know if I'd recommend for group dining if that is their standard policy.

I've been wanting to give this place a try. We finally came since it offerer Dine LA menu. Openaire is located in THE LINE Hotel. There is valet but we found parking on the streets. The restaurant does validate. We had reservations for dinner on a Sunday night, and it wasn't crowded at all. Our server was attentive and helpful. The food was delicious and unique. I can see how people are saying it can be pricey. With Dine LA, it was a good deal. The Tuna Tartare was really tasty; especially with the sweet potato chips. The Braised Beef Paleron was very flavorful and melts in your mouth. It was my first time having the Okinawa sweet potato. It paired well with the beef. The dessert was just right as well. I liked the Passionfruit Creme Brulee better since I'm not a chocolate person. I want to come back to try their brunch and to see this place in the day time.

Amazing Ceaser Salad

OpenAire : OpenAire in K-town is a special terrarium of a space perfect for an upscale Mother's Day, a fun long tabled birthday or a very ruckus brunch. The space is Instagrammable in every sense of the genre. It gives Eco-plant-chic as sunlight beams and a glass housing to remind each other ever throw stones. It's happy and bright and the service matches it. The food portions and flavors are as well and we are lucky to have it in our beautiful town. Thank you OpenAire for your open heart. I promise to stay at the Line hotel as I think their lobby is fabulous as well because who doesn't enjoy a lobby happy hour within brutalist poured concrete.

Japanese sweet potatoe
Thuy Dan T.

Had my little freakier Friday moment eating here as I just watched the movie and hadn't been back to the Line hotel since it was a different restaurant so I was happy to come back. Valet at the hotel is available and with validation from the restaurant is I think $14 if I remember correctly. The restaurant is beautiful within a greenhouse area. Everything we tried tasty pretty good, some more stand outs than others. My favorites were: + house milk bread - soft and light and the porcini butter was savory with lots of umami + roasted Japanese sweet potatoes - sweet and savory! + crispy duck confit - the kimchi rice below was delish! What I would personally skip: + Tempura squash - textures were there but overall flavor profile was subtle + snake river farms wagyu zabuton was overall fine, but all the components felt more separate than complimentary? + carrot Swiss roll - tougher texture, I think in the fridge too long

We specifically chose Openaire because they were advertising this Koreatown Gwishin (Ghost) Dinner for Halloween, complete with immersive storytelling, Korean ghost lore, a Daegu fortune teller, and spooky dinner theatrics. We thought it would be such a cool, Korean-themed Halloween night. But when we arrived and asked about the storytelling... not a single staff member had any idea what we were talking about. We asked multiple people and everyone looked confused. Where was the Daegu Fortune Teller? I wish they were present just to tell us this whole thing was a hoax. Lol. The good news: The ambiance is stunning. This restaurant is undeniably beautiful with dreamy greenhouse vibes with warm lighting and lush greenery. The atmosphere alone makes you want to stay for hours. The food and cocktails were delicious, and the special Halloween menu was executed perfectly, so zero complaints there. There was a magician/mentalist performing that night, and his trick actually blew my mind. I'm still thinking about how the X mark ended up on the inside of my left palm even though I was gripping my hands super tight. So props to him because that was memorable and very on-theme in its own way. The not-so-good: Our server felt lost, almost like it was her first day. And overall, it just didn't seem like anyone had been briefed on the event that was being heavily advertised. I just don't think they thought this concept through. If you're going to promote an immersive themed experience, the team should at least be aware of it. Bottom line: We still enjoyed our meal because the ambiance and food truly delivered. But next time, please don't advertise something and then pull the plug without telling your staff, it just makes everyone look confused, including the guests. Would I return? Yes -- for the vibes and food. Would I return for a themed event? A hard no!

Eggs Benedict

Beautiful venue. I loved the greenhouse vibe and the mixture of industrial steel with luscious greenery. The service was also exceptional. I felt well taken care of and had many kind people constantly at my side. The food is where this fell short. My group got the French toast and the eggs Benedict. The french toast was interesting with the cornflakes, but it was frankly somewhat bland and didn't provide as much flavor as promised. I was surprised by how light it was, but missed the traditional custard texture of french toast. The eggs Benedict came with poached eggs that seemed almost raw, there will still gloopy pieces of uncooked white when I broke the apart. I appreciated the overall Benedict, especially the crispy English muffin in tandem with the ham, hollandaise and egg. The breakfast potatoes were dry. The side salad lacked flavor. Frankly, the food was not worth the expensive prices. I would come back for the environment and that alone. But considering that it is a restaurant, you will not be seeing me back here.

I'd been wanting to try Openaire for a minute, and I was super excited to finally cross this off my bucket list. We had heard there was validation, but we realized it would still be $15, so that proved to be contradictaory which resulted in us having to find parking in the congested area known as K-town. Upon entry, I loved how aesthetic and exceptionally designed it was, though it did look bigger online lol. The customer service was decent, but it seemed as though our waitress misunderstood a few of our requests, and there was a bit of confusion. Although the menu had great options, and the food was good, the price specfially for the breakfast plate, was overpriced, and 1 pancake was $6 extra, and unfortunately, I was still hungry after lol. It was nice to cross it off the list, but it would definitely be a one-and-done place.

Duck Pasta
Michelle L.

TLDR - ambiance and apps here are better than the entrees IMO; i think it's more of a hang with friends and vibe in a nice atmosphere Food: my favorite apps were the crudo & the kale salad, although everything was pretty good! * For entrees, the steak (not pictured) and jerk chicken were pretty good but neither of the duck dishes were that great. The duck pasta was minced so you couldn't really taste the flavor /couldn't differentiate with another meat and the duck kimchi rice was just ok. The kimchi fried rice was more sour than I liked and had some pear slices on top to make it a bit sweeter, overall kind of soggy. Service: a little slow but the waiters are super friendly and helpful with any questions/recommendations Parking: KTOWN parking is pretty hard since this is located @ the Line Hotel so you either need to valet or street park and walk

Look for The Line LA
Melinda K.

I drove five hours straight from San Jose, just in time for brunch, on my first day of vacation in LA three years ago. There was a wait in line for walk-ins, and almost everyone dressed nicer here compared to the tech people in SF restaurants. The rooftop restaurant was located on the third floor of The Line LA. After a 30-minute wait, we were seated outside the greenhouse with shade. We ordered their popular dishes: Ahi Tuna Tartare- fresh tuna with avocado mousseline and sweet potato chips to scoop everything together. Citrusy on the avocado, and the chips were crispy like wonton chips. Corn Flake Crusted French Toast- it had caramelized banana slices on top, and the toasts were fried with corn flakes. It was sweet and a bit crunchy, like eating a croquette. Great for dessert. Hibachi Steak and Egg- The steak was tender and served with Kimchi fried rice and sunny-side egg. A fancier version of Loco Moco, but with a Japanese-Korean flair, California style. The sauce really helped make this whole dish exceptional. If you want it fancier, add the lobster for an extra charge. Service was pleasant. It was too busy on a Sunday. I parked on the street across the hotel with the meter, so I didn't have to pay their pricey valet parking inside the hotel. Overall, it was pricey due to their presentation, but a great way to splurge on special occasions and to catch up with a group of friends in DTLA.

Ask the Community - Openaire

Is there a dress code?

Nope, just casual.

How much is valet PARKING?

Valet parking is $12. Validation is also required, or you will pay additional fees.

Are babies welcome for brunch? Is the vibe fitting?

Yes. I was there with a child. However, if you're in a booth and it's crowded, a place for the stroller will be hectic. It'll be better to be at a table.

How is the parking for Openaire?

Valet option is available. Street parking is timed and very limited.

Is there a full bar here?

There is indeed! A quite pretty one at that!

Are there open windows in the greenhouse to allow good air flow or is it all enclosed?

If you're worried about covid... it's not that airy.

What is the parking situation on a Sunday morning? Please let me know.

They have valet which was super easy to do, you may find some street parking around but might have some restrictions (I just went for valet last time)

Do dogs allow at patio?

I don't think so

I've reserved "standard" seats through Open Table, does that guarantee seats in green house?thanks!

When I reserved OpenTable standard seats I put in the notes "Greenhouse seating request." I also let the hostess know when I checked in on the day of my reservation. We were seated in the Greenhouse with no problems.

Do they offer bottomless mimosas for brunch?…

Yes, they do.

Is there access to the pool from the restaurant?

Dining doesn't grant access to pool, but it is on same level and you can possibly be seated right across it.

What is the "standard" seat on the reservation website? There are two options: outdoor seating and standard seating. Is standard seating located in the greenhouse?

I reserved outdoor and was seated in the greenhouse.

How much is bottomless mimosas and from what time is it available?

Hey there. The bottomless mimosas are $ 25, endless drinks for 2 hrs. Between 10am-2:30 pm Enjoy

Are they still doing bottomless for brunch?

I called and they said yes but didn't give me a price

What time is sunday brunch til?

10-2:30. Always refer to website for answers. It's not posted then call.

Are dogs allowed on the outside area?

I saw a girl bring her dog in a dog stroller. I'm going to assume yes

What number can I call to make reservations?

I made reservation on opentable. There is a deposit if you have a party of 6 or more. Or go to thelinehotel.com to reserve

What's the max they can sit for a table? Can they do 8?

I've seen long tables where they can sit 8, but call to confirm because seating is limited inside the green house dining.

I emailed regarding a reservation inquiry a few days ago, would it be better to call a specific number instead? I've been unable to get a hold of anyone yet

Me too! I tried two different numbers and just keeps ringing! 😫

Do you need to have a reservation for brunch? Or can you walk in? Not able to get anyone on the phone.

Hi Shanyn, we recommend our guests to make a reservation via Opentable.com; otherwise we do take walk-ins too depending on availability and wait time

I want to update my review about the location of Zinc that I wrote over a decade ago. Since my…read moreinitial review, I've continued to come to this restaurant. It remains a unique addition to the neighborhood, as well as a good place to grab some interesting dishes. Since the opening of this particular business, the Zinc chain has opened in a few other locations. Those locations are much newer in not only their establishment but their design. This is not to say that this is still not an interesting, well-designed business, but, with time, it has become a little bit rundown. I hate to say it, but that is the truth. This location could really use an update and perhaps a deep cleaning. I was, in fact, kind of surprised at the condition of this business, for example, on the way towards their restrooms. From my opinion, it needs an clean up and an update. Also, the litter that surrounded some of the outdoor tables where I was sitting at my most recent visit was very surprising. This is just something to keep in mind if you're coming here for your first visit. In terms of what they offer for food, though it has evolved a bit over the years, they still have a great, heath-based menu, with some very interesting choices. For all of you vegetarians and vegans out there, you will, for sure, be able to find some tasty food to eat. Once upon a time, this restaurant was impacted with tons and tons of people. It was constantly full with people either going to the bakery and/or sitting down for table service. Shortly past their opening each day, there would be a line of people waiting for service. This seems to have changed, however. Meaning, if you're looking for an interesting place to eat, with some good dishes, at the far Southeast side of DTLA, near the lofts district, and you want a place without a long wait to get a table and/or your food, this may still be your place to go.

Food came out quickly but after that we were barely checked on. We had to ask several times for things that we ordered and had to flag down the waitress to order a second drink and they took forever. We could understand that it was busy but the waitress never apologized or said anything like they were understaffed or anything. Also, we had a few questions about the menu and our drinks and the waitress would just say, "I think so?" or give a vague answer. She didn't seem very knowledgeable about the menu at all. Maybe she was new, but clearly training was lacking. I don't think I'll be returning but since I see many reviews relating to service issues, hopefully management is able to address the deficit

Lastly, I really dug the tostadita de atún. It hit perfectly on these hot summer days. Low-key, I still want to try the El Rey de Noche. Tacos de beef trompo are starting to hit LA, and dude was ahead of the curve making picanha-brisket tacos de trompo. Service is smooth too. The servers are helpful, and solid at the bar. Overall, it's a cool spot with a menu that feels unique to LA.

A few weeks ago, I tried a sample of a Venison burger at Sprouts and it was pretty amazing. I felt…read morethat I needed to try this here as well. My friend just flew in for a day because his relative had forgot her passport and needed to travel to Korea, so we stopped here. He missed a few meetings, a vet appointment and other things, but also saved the day, otherwise his relative wouldn't have been able to make it to Korea. While here, they ordered a salad with cherries and pecans that was pretty amazing. I think that may have been one of the better salads I've eaten. In addition to that, a cucumber burrata salad was ordered, and that was made well too. When my venison burger arrived, I took a few bites and it had the exact flavor I was hoping for and I thought the burger was done extremely well. My friend also ordered a pork chop, and it was an amazing cut, cooked perfectly, tender, juicy and everything you could ever want in a bone in pork chop. They also cut the entire piece for you and scraped every last bit off of the bone too. The service is really attentive. They come by your table a lot to ensure you have everything you need. The ambiance is a bit dim in lighting which sets a nice mood. And the place just happens to be dog friendly too. Sorry for the lack of photos, but I didn't wanna intrude on everyone else's meals. However, if you come here, definitely try the salad with cherries and the venison burger or the pork chop!

Amazing apple butter 10/10 easy must get The dip was okay,…read morenot a big fan but it is a bigger portion. Great for pics The pop Benedict was good but not super filling, the eggs well seasoned and good sauce Bacon super bomb, if you like sweet Canadian bacon. Not a fan of the grits Tartar 10/10 easy really good dish to get to share Chile was okay nothing else besides sauce and chips 4/10 Ribeye steak very small like 6 oz steak for $58 it's great but not for the size and quality Great service, really fast and their mixed drinks were bomb too. I liked the melon one 9/10 Overnight oats is good too but on the higher end, 7/10 nothing crazy but still good If I go back the butter, burger and pop Benedict would be the move or bacon
