Most of their sweet items on their breakfast lineup are mostly good, with their French toast and Best Potatoes being my best picks so far. I would recommend The Corner for anyone wanting to take any guests here for dining that--by California standards--does not break the bank when it comes to breakfast. The live music is also a plus, adding in to the atmosphere of this place. However, the first time I came here I was seated to a loudspeaker that was a bit loud for my taste. Service is also good, and were accomodating enough for a good time. Overall, I'd want to come here again just to try the desserts. One caveat is to come here if you check in early morning for a good weekend brunch, around 9-9:30am, which I did during my second visit here, as their peak times are roughly around noon.

She always came around to see how we were doing and had no issues with guiding first-timers right to our seats. The thematic concepts of each dish and drink were so clever and exquisite.

And...the view of the cityscape was definitely everything to write home about. This is what we came for. The Green Room highlights the character of LA in so many ways. Loved it!

We were just told that they'd decided to close early that day. Mind you, Castaway was still open that night. Why would a bar close before its posted hours? ‍

The woman behind the counter was very friendly and polite as we This is a cute establishment with seating inside and out. It is very cute inside with a WIDE range of food items to choose from! Today I ordered a mocha iced latte with oat milk and it was delicious. For food I ordered a healthy meal with steak sautéed veggies and roasted potatoes. And it was amazing ! I would definitely order it again! The steak is not like a prime steak BUT everything had flavor! For desert I HAD to get the pecan brownie and the caramel brownie cause I'm a brownie connoisseur I like my brownies warmed up and these are good but I'll update my review once I have them warmed up with a warm coffee. Just the customer service alone would bring me back! But definitely if you are in the area please stop by and give it a try!

Waited exactly 20 minutes for two mediocre hot mochas. I've lived here since before this cafe was…read moreestablished and it has never not been at the very least a somewhat disappointing visit. I always wanted to keep giving them a chance because it's not like we have a lot of similar options locally, but this was the last straw for me. The quality doesn't even come close to justifying the price. I could get teenagers to whip me up any crazy drink within minutes at Starbucks, but the simplest order here requires that I've got nothing else going on in my day. And don't get me started on ordering food here. Let's just say last time it was a similar story but no coffee, just a lemon square... that was already made. Also, one of their young male employees seemed to be on break and used the female restroom when the male restroom was free. Just a little strange there. Cute ambience and I like the paintings from local artists they have up, but it isn't a place I'd recommend to anyone. The workers are mostly smiles and friendly demeanors, I just wish they'd be more efficient and thoughtful.

Despite being so close to a seafood restaurant, I never expected one of my favorite shrimp dishes to come from here. I'm glad I took the chance. The shrimp were tender and full of garlic flavor, and the creamy white wine sauce was rich without being too heavy. The spaghetti was cooked perfectly, and the fresh tomatoes, basil, and Parmesan added just the right balance. The warm French bread was perfect for soaking up every bit of the sauce. This dish completely exceeded my expectations and has earned a permanent spot on my list of favorites. Basin 141 continues to impress with both its consistency and its willingness to surprise.

Because there is a seafood restaurant across the street from Basin 141, I always thought to stick to the excellent dishes I've tried before. However, the description of the Shrimp in the menu made me want to try it. I made the decision and was I delighted. Sautéed Garlic Shrimp in a white wine cream sauce accompanied by perfect al dente spaghetti, tomato and basil with shredded Parmesan and French baguettes. A perfect combination that should be entered in a culinary contest, it was that good. Elliott was the wonderful server who paid great attention to us and while one of our favorite waitresses, Paige has moved on, there is another Paige who was wonderful to us. As Basin 141 turns to another Paige (sorry, I had to), we are as well and are seriously looking to move to Montrose as it's a wonderful town and with this restaurant in the same area, we could become frequent flyers. It may be best known as a bar because of their incredible selections, but this wonderful establishment is a fantastic restaurant with out door seating. We love the Basin 141 experience and will be back again and again.

After driving by Capital Grille for months since they've opened, my boyfriend and I finally decided to give it a try. A cute date night on a Sunday to kick off the new week. Making reservations online was quick and easy and most time slots were open. We easily found parking in the neighborhood behind Capital Grille. They offer valet parking but we didn't mind the short walk. You'll walk into the lobby where you'll be greeted by the host. It's dimly lit, intimate, and fancy inside the restaurant. There's a huge statue of a bald eagle in the center of the room, the vibe was giving Old Money Hollywood. Shoutout to our server Ronnie! He was super kind, helpful, and made our dining experience really enjoyable. We ordered Brussels sprouts to share and ooooh boy were they addicting! They were roasted with a deep char flavor, not crispy but had good texture. My boyfriend ordered a Caesar Salad, it tasted great, but could have had better presentation to match the vibes of the restaurant (but that's just me being picky haha). I ordered the Roasted Chicken, it came with fingerling potatoes, asparagus, and a nice sauce. Chicken was juicy and had rich flavor without feeling too heavy. potatoes were really good, I try to be low carb but they were too good to pass up! The sauce made the dish. It was creamy, little tangy, went very well with the chicken. My boyfriend loved his steak! I don't remember exactly which steak he ordered but he appreciated that they made it to his liking. He likes his steaks on the well side but not too well where it's dry. They cooked it perfectly! Would definitely come back for another date night or for any celebrations.

But by far, The Proper in La Canada has the best French dip sandwich I've ever had. It's actually shaved prime rib on a soft and not overpowering French role, and paired with au jus and a horseradish aioli. It's heaven. I always get their fried brussel sprouts too (so truffle-y, crispy and salty). They make a killer Old Fashion too. https://www.properrestaurant.com

They…read moreactually fight over the *Brussel sprouts* and we have to get them each their own order (they are 5 and 8). They also love the chicken fingers, the fries are phenomenal and the chocolate lava cake is a must. As for my husband and I, he says the French dip sandwich is the best he's had in his life. And he is a French dip connoisseur! He's tried all the regular L.A staples--Philippe's, Cole's, etc.... But he says nothing compares to The Proper. Their burger is also wonderful. I've also had several of their fish dishes and have enjoyed them all. And you must try the warm butter cake. I'm normally a chocolate lover, but I dream about the butter cake from The Proper. I'm not a big drinker, but husband loves their Old Fashions and they have a fully stocked bar with lots of specialty cocktails as well. We love sitting in the long booths, which can comfortably fit our party of 2 adults, 2 kids and often 2 grandparents as well. The service is always wonderful and everyone is very friendly. My only complaint about The Proper is that I hate the parking lot. It's very tight and people don't pull up far enough. But that's a small price to pay for this wonderful local gem.

Lovely, old fashioned diner with exposed brick walls, distressed furniture and a mix of old and new American decor. Very comfortable and homey. The best part was the food though. The chef doesn't know it's a diner apparently. I had a lovely chicken piccata that was superb! The only thing I didn't do was lick the plate clean, it was so good. Fare you'd expect from a nice Italian bistro. They have a devil's den full of desserts they make, too. I had a banana cream pie that was ridiculously good, along with an excellent coffee. They have a full coffee bar as well as the dessert bar. Service was terrific and the pricing was moderate for the quality. Breakfast, lunch and dinner with a large menu filled with American comfort food favorites. We have a ballgame to go to mid August. We are going to eat early dinner here before the game. Cannot wait to try their chicken pot pie!

If you go during the breakfast/brunch rush on the weekends, def take a few deep breaths as there can be a wait. Often, the patio fills up quite quickly. But sometimes it's just the luck of arriving at the perfect moment. As far as the entrees are concerned, I particularly like the Chile Stuffed Skillet when I'm craving a savory breakfast meal. It's made with a pasilla pepper stuffed with bacon, cheddar, and a poached egg. It's baked it in an iron skillet on top of potatoes, and it's topped off with ranchera sauce and sour cream. And let me tell ya, those house-made biscuits are amazing. Warm, crumbly, and melt in your mouth like a good biscuit should. The house-made jams are also a nice treat and feel like having a sample of grandma's (or mom's) kitchen. On of my visits, a friend ordered the Banana Bread French Toast, and it made me wish I had two stomachs so that I could eat that as well. But like a good friend, she noticed that I was eyeing her breakfast like a puppy dog begging from scraps. So she was gracious enough to split some and do a trade with one of my biscuits. I think the trade was quite fair. Next time, we agreed to go halfsies on the Corn Flake Crusted French Toast because they're really exceptional, and the Morning Quiche (which is only served on the weekends).
