    Scenic views.
    Vlad V.

    The Green Room is a pretty amazing experience (with a couple of hiccups). I stopped by this speakeasy on a Thursday evening at 9 p.m. I made a reservation through OpenTable. Located inside of Castaway, valet is your only real option. I found some street parking which was about a 10 minute walk. The problem was the road you need to walk down has no sidewalk and it's pitch dark. I figured risking getting run over by a car isn't worth it. Especially at night. Ambiance (5/5): This is one of the areas where The Green Room Shines. Once you walk into Castaway, tell the front desk you have a reservation. They will lead you through a hidden door close to the bathroom to get into the speakeasy. From there, you'll have the option of either sitting inside (where you'll find Prohibition-era vibes) or outside on the patio. I highly recommend sitting on the patio. Despite the chilly weather while I was there, part of the appeal of The Green Room (and The Castaway if you're going to the restaurant instead) are the scenic views of LA. The Green Room is located at the top of a mountain so amazing views await. Especially if you're there at sunset. Service (2.5/5): Room for improvement here, for sure. From reading reviews prior to my visit, other Yelpers talked about having to solve a puzzle to enter the speakeasy and then receiving a welcome drink. This wasn't part of my experience. I'm not sure if it's something they no longer do, or if I was unlucky, but it was a bummer either way. Part of the appeal of a speakeasy is the mystery and intrigue of getting in. And who doesn't like a welcome drink?! My waiter, on the other hand, did a pretty good job. He was charming and explained each of the cocktails. He was a little less attentive than I like, but overall, it was good. They also have free WiFi which is also a good touch. Another knock is that valet is $11 (plus a processing fee if you pay by card). I'm not from California, so I'm not used to Cali prices, but this seems a little steep in my mind. There's no reason for the entire parking lot to be valet. There easily could be self-parking there. It's just a money-making scheme. Food (N/A): I had dinner prior so I was on a liquid diet. They do have a food menu though. Drinks (4.5/5): If you're looking for clever, over-the-top drinks, you'll have that option at The Green Room. What's cool is that the specialty cocktails are all inspired by various movies including Aladdin, Snow White, Crazy Rich Asians, and more. The Aladdin-inspired cocktail is served in a teapot and is for two. The Snow White-inspired cocktail comes with a mirror and lipstick where you can write stuff on the mirror. Talk about creativity! If you're looking for something less intense, they have normal cocktails too, as well as wine. As the self-appointed king of speakeasies, one of the things I look for at a speakeasy is creativity and an interesting blend of flavors and ingredients. You certainly have that here. The Green Room features some of the most creative cocktails I've ever experienced. Combine that with the incredible views, and it's quite the experience. Without some problematic service elements, they would easily be a five-star experience.

    This was my first time at the Green Room, but I've been to Castaway a handful of times! Parking is valet only. Make sure to make a reservation. I've been wanting to come here for years and it did not disappoint. The food was delicious and the drinks were fun and tasty. I loved the presentation of the drinks. We were seated outside, so it was nice to enjoy the view. Next time I'll have to try and sit inside to see what that's like. I wish I could remember the name of our server to shot her out, because she was amazing!

    Hot seafood tower
    Crystal G.

    The food was good, but there weren't a whole lot of options. I tried the oysters, caviar fries, the lunchbox, the after school snack and the hot seafood tower. I enjoyed all the food but the pizza pocket thingies were a little underwhelming. I enjoyed my oysters but on my friend's platter there was an oyster with barely and meat on it and I was surprised they even served it. The drinks were good and very "show-ey." The service was good- our server was cool and friendly enough. The ambiance is a 10 and I'd go back for that alone. I heard this place has happy hour, so I'll definitely go back for that!

    Paid Vacation, Crazy Rich Cocktail, Cavier Frites
    Shirley W.

    Made a reservation for Saturday night 7pm and there were still plenty of tables available. Except, sitting in the patio gets filled out quickly, so we were only able to sit inside. Later in the night, the restaurant does get more filled, so a reservation is definitely recommended. Especially how some tables may stay for a long while. Patio is also quite small too. If you're there for the views and don't have a table, it'll be hard to see lol They offered a welcome drink which was pretty nice, very refreshing and fruity! Service was quite quick and attentive as well, very friendly! Our server offered some recommendations as it was our first time there, which we ended up getting the Paid Vacation, Crazy Rich Cocktail, and the caviar frites. The cocktails here are quite a show. The presentation is really nice here! It really elevates the experience. The drinks are also pretty strong (if you're weak to alcohol like me lol). I enjoyed the paid vacation a lot more cause it was sweet, but the crazy rich cocktail in my opinion looked the nicest between the two. Except, that it was pretty hard to drink. It's very 'smokey' and my bf described it as lighter fluid. As for the caviar frites, this was recommended by the server, but honestly this would be a pass for us haha. It was just something that we never tried before, so we were curious to try, but the caviar and the sauce they had with it going on in the fries, it really didn't do too much to enhance flavors. Also the fries could have been crispier, it was a bit undercooked, but maybe personal preference for people. Not sure for the rest of the food here, but I would just get drinks here. Overall, our experience was really nice here. Drinks were flashy, also considerably strong. Service was really nice here as well. The bar/restaurant isn't entirely that big either, so it's a must for reservation. Valet parking was $11.

    FILET MIGNON SAMMIE
    Ast D.

    Obsessed with these filet mignon Sammies ever since I tried it on the castaway tasting menu 2 years ago. These are cute bite sizes and good appetizers. The drinks are fun. This part of the restaurant is so much more intimate with the same amazing view. Truly enjoyed a nice evening here. And everything else was delicious! Love this place.

    WOW - what a find this place was!! Best happy hour spot in the Burbank area. FOOD/DRINK The food and drink experience was delicious and unique. I loved the creative touches and presentation this place offered. I got the Paid Vacation drink with the tongue-numbing flower that changes the way the drink tastes. The flower was not the most pleasant thing to eat, but the experience was worth it. The After School Snack (calzones) were INCREDIBLE! The Terrarium wasn't anything too special, and I did enjoy the Special Delivery kimchi balls. AMBIENCE/SERVICE We were greeted into our secret speakeasy experience with a free taste of the drink of the day - it was fantastic. The views were also absolutely stunning. I'd definitely want to come again during sunset. NOTE: Parking is valet only ($9 I believe?), but there is free parking about 7 minutes down the slight hill if the weather is nice and you don't mind a mini hike! The servers were friendly, and overall I will be coming back here for sure!

    Free shot for the birthday girl
    Katie L.

    Took my niece here to celebrate her 21st birthday and she loved it. Besides the incredible view, the staff was amazing, especially our server Jasmine. She went out of her way to make her feel special and brought her a free shot presented in this cool box with dry ice and wrote her a personalized birthday note. Food was great, presentation was top notch. Niece was impressed and we are left with great memories of this special day.

    This is a lot of things. It's a scene. It's a special occasion place. It's a show. There's stunning and iconic views. And they serve food too. Everything here is drama. Getting here is an event - I didn't even know Burbank HAD mountains like this... and you keep going up and up and up... Then, walking in and being told I would need to solve a puzzle to figure out a password to gain entry. I did not comply. I'm truly no fun in that way. I made a reservation so I'm coming in, you know? Anyway, I lightened up when presented with the "free nightly cocktail". Nice surprise. I don't remember what it was but it was a tasty little drink to help ease me into this experience. Which, as I mentioned before, is A LOT. The patio view is stunning. Absolutely amazing. And you will recognize it from dozens of TV shows and movies. When the sun is out, the view is remarkable. When it's dark, it's even better. Unfortunately, there is no practical seating. The tables are too small for the giant presentations and nothing is designed with having food in mind. We definitely planned on making this our dinner, not just drinking it. The best seats are probably the lounge chairs with the low tables in front of them, which allow for both people to enjoy that view... of course, you'll have to bend considerably low to reach any food on the table. Eating clearly is not the point here. And you know that because the food is... well it's for show. It's not terrible but it's so wild and outlandish that if it actually did manage to be delicious, you'd be gobsmacked. But it's not. We started with "The Terrarium" - and yes, everything here has a silly name. This is hummus with fried pita and veggies. It's served on an enormous wooden platter with the pita crazily exploding into tall shards. It's something to see. It's not particularly good. The hummus is strictly grocery store case and the pita was stale. We also had the Hot Seafood Tower. That was not bad. The seafood is seasoned like one of those "seafood boil in a bag" places and they didn't give us anything to crack the crab legs and lobster with so it was a pretty messy experience. We liked the oysters and the crab and lobster were fine. The scallops were overcooked, which happens, but they were still edible. Drinks are just as outlandish as everything else. We saw cocktails delivered in a bed of flowers, in a "poison apple" with a mirror to write on in lipstick, and various other theatrical presentations. I had the Tropical Thunder, which came with a story. Our eyes hurt from rolling so much... but yeah, we were having fun. These designer cocktails are NOT cheap - at least $22 and upwards of $40 or more. They aren't strong either, but if you drink too much you wouldn't be able to make it off the mountain, so they're probably doing you a favor. Dessert was a big miss but also a really big show... we had "A Pie-Rates Life For Me"... yeah, we didn't know what it was either. The description is a lot of dessert type words that don't go together. It turned out to be pretty much a baked Alaska. It was lit on fire (natch) with a pour of booze. And that was all you tasted throughout the dessert. The raw alcohol soaked the meringue outside and the cake inside had also been soaked in booze. We couldn't eat more than a few bites. But what a show! Despite everything, this was a great evening out. The room is vibrant and full of the beautiful people in very revealing clothing and terrifyingly high heels. We know they're not here for the food. No one is. Take someone that isn't from LA here and they will be astounded. But give 'em dinner at the Smokehouse first...

    Sushi tacos
    Valerie G.

    Service was great! The waitresses we had were super duper nice and very attentive. Everything we ordered was amazingly delicious. Drinks were tasty and strong- just how I like it. The sushi tacos and ceviche were flavorful, I couldn't help but want more. We seemed to have had the lounge to ourselves and it had such beautiful decor and the lighting was perfect.

    La Muerte drink
    Lisette F.

    One of the best hidden gems in Burbank! I went with my friends to celebrate my birthday and it was by far the best speakeasy I've ever been to. It has a 1920's feel. We enjoyed the lively spirits as well as their exquisite food selection. Best part of it all was the excellent customer service. Make sure you book your reservations ahead of time. I will definitely return real soon!

    Crab appetizer
    Lina M.

    This was a very chill and fun experience, with amazing view and music , great vibes and cool appetizers and extraordinary drinks. The service was nice and friendly but they were very slow. Took them 45 minutes from the minute we sat down to bring our drinks. I liked the ambiance and the music they were playing was very nice . I just wish their service was more on point. The menu also needs better items . What we got was delicious but we couldn't find anything else that we liked in the menu. We got the caviar fries, the crab appetizer (with cream cheese and bread) and the ceviche (needs more chips)

    Anthony K.

    The Green Room feels like a secret spot above the city. Cool speakeasy vibe and amazing views. Joined their makers private tasting, and everything hit the mark, unique pours and fun cocktails to the chef's delicious bites. The staff was warm and thoughtful, making the whole night feel exclusive yet relaxed.

    Joleen K.

    Ask the Community - The Green Room

    How do we get seating out at the patio?

    Ask the host they will accommodate if there's an availability

    Do they seat you when you come in or you sit yourself?

    I was there last weekend, they directed us to our seating area but we got to select our table as there weren't many people there yet.

    Are kids allowed?

    They say they're family friendly however they don't have a kids meal and to be honest I've never seen kids in there or seen high chairs.

    Is there music on Saturday nights?

    Yes, there is a DJ that plays music.

    Do they host private events?

    I understand they hold private events, up to 35 people. Must call to confirm.

    Any dress code?

    Yes. They ask that you wear business casual, such as a nice button up or sweater. (for men) I would say just dress nice, as you would for any fancy restaurant. No sweatshirts or flip flops.

    Can you wear sneakers with slacks?

    I'd say you can. There is a dress code, but it was not strictly enforced.

    What's the parking situation?

    Valet

    Are there vegan options?

    I'm not sure, you might have to call or check online

    Are there heaters on the outdoor patio?

    Yes there are, they will move them to accommodate your seating

    Is this a good place for a birthday party in December for 20 people?

    It's a great place for a special occasion! The view alone is worth it. Plus, the menu (especially the dessert tower) will be fun and a show stopper. Hope this helps

    Do they offer cigars?

    They do not. They have a dish that is made to resemble cigars, but they do not actually offer any.

    Is smoking allowed outside out on the patio (cigars or cigarettes)?

    I do not think so. I stepped out to the parking lot.

    Are kids allowed?

    No. 21 and over. They check IDs.

    Do you Need a reservation just for drinks?

    Yes

    Is there music and dancing?

    The music was excellent on a Friday evening when we visited but no dance floor on the patio but hey, a party is what you make it

    Is there a dress code?

    Hope this helps. From their website... Dress code: Upscale attire. We kindly ask that guests refrain from wearing hats,… Read more

    This is hands down my favorite local tiki bar!…read more The vibes, the drinks, and the people make it unbeatable. Their piña colada is easily the best I've ever had. Perfectly creamy, balanced, and dangerously drinkable. One sip and you're instantly on vacation. The manager Erin is an absolute gem. She's the sweetest, has the best sense of humor, and makes everyone feel welcome the moment they walk in. You can tell she genuinely cares about creating a great experience. Also, shoutout to Topher, a truly awesome bartender! If you're looking for a spot with killer cocktails, tropical vibes, and top-tier service, this place is a must. Can't recommend it enough. TIP: they teamed up w/Pitfire Pizza so u can actually get pizza delivered to you via QR code available on each of the tables.

    Tiki No has a surprisingly fun ambiance, especially for the area. It is definitely not something…read moreyou expect to stumble across, which makes the atmosphere a nice surprise when you walk in. The drinks are okay. They lean on the sweeter side, so it is the kind of place where you might stop in for a sugary cocktail rather than something particularly memorable. Overall it is a decent place to meet up with friends for a quick snack and a drink, but it is probably not somewhere I would go out of my way to make the main destination for the night. Still a nice little spot if you happen to be nearby and want a casual place to hang out for a bit.

    If I could put a review labeling this place the best place on earth, I would. And it is. The moment…read moreyou walk in, atmosphere, aesthetic, mood, general energy, changes. I fell in love before i even saw the menu. Now don't even get me started on that world class water. Best water I've ever consumed. Perfectly cold and delectably drinkable. They have a whole freaking sign for their sauces and dips. I'm in love. I got a Shirley temple and if i could marry a place instead of a person, the Shirley temple would be my reason. It was FANTASTIC. Our server, Isaiah, was absolutely amazing and on top of things, refilling our water before we even hit half glass. Not to mention his energy and vibe was so welcoming and fun. We got the PuPu platter for two, came out within minutes, I could spend the rest of my life eating that alone. Isaiah recommended his favorite sauces, Garlic Chive and Chipotle Citrus, they were amazing. We got the shrimp and lobster roll, I officially entered heaven. The Isles of Club sandwich was the finishing touch that had me laughing from joy. Near the end of our dining we meant Max, another server, who is absolutely fantastic, brought us everything we needed, boxes, sauce containers, bags, to-go dessert. His energy was also amazing and super fun. Now some extra things to note: -I'm not a big mac salad girly, but holy moly guacamole i loved their Mac salad. -anything tempura/fried in this place is heaven itself -their fries are perfect -the vibe is beyond life you might start crying in joy -be ready to want to buy everything on the menu and then some -I downloaded yelp just to leave this review Overall, Broken Compass Tiki is the perfect place for everyone. Their service is top tier, the food is delicious, the water is a treasure, and so much more. I will be back and I hope everyone has a chance of experiencing pure joy at this place.

    Broken Compass Tiki is a pirate themed tiki bar in Burbank…read more They don't having a parking lot, but it was very easy to find street parking just around the corner on a Sunday afternoon. The front of the building is a little vaguely marked, and the entrance has speakeasy vibes, which was a surprise. Upon walking in the front door, there is some tiki décor and a small counter in the rear. I remember thinking to myself "what the heck, this is it?". I checked in at the host stand on the left, and was handed me a boarding pass. She then led us through a hidden door behind what looked like a shipping crate. We were now in the real Broken Compass. The interior is a good size. The two-sided bar seats around a dozen. There is a lounge side of the bar that has two large booths along the wall, and another area with comfortable looking couches and lounge chairs. The main dining room has some tiki hut booths, and two sections of tables with half booth and half chair. The décor is pretty extensive with a good mix of pirate, nautical, and tiki themes. There is a lot of bamboo, thatch, rope, cargo netting, skulls and skeletons, port holes, octopus tentacles, jellyfish, tiki lights, and more. The ceiling is dark with various nautical and pirate markings, and even tied up ship sails overhead. The tiki hut booths have the parrots from the enchanted tiki room above them. Even the two restrooms are nautical themed, with beach and marine sounds playing. There is a lot of great décor to look at. We arrived around 2pm on a Sunday, so it wasn't very busy yet. By the time we left a few hours later, it was starting to get busy. We decided to sit at the bar. We started out with the buffalo cauliflower ($14) for an afternoon snack. The serving size was generous, and the buffalo sauce had a good tang. It was served with some sauces, and was surprisingly filling. A nice feature of the cocktail menu is that each drink displays one to three compass stars to indicate the strength of the drink. Their cocktails use a great variety of liquors including ones you don't often see. Many of the ingredients are made in-house. I started out with Chupacabra's Vacation (Demerara Rum, Jamacian Rum, Pomegranate Reduction, Cinnamon, Lime Juice, Bitters, two-star boozy rank, $17). It is served with a flaming lime on top and a little fire show. It was balanced with a light booziness, some light pomegranate flavor, and a cinnamon sprinkle on top. She started out with the Bittersweet Paradise (Jamacian Rum, White Rum, Campari, Passionfruit Syrup, Lemon, Lime, Pineapple, two-star boozy rank, $18). It didn't drink boozy at all, and was passion fruit forward, with light bitterness. My second cocktail was the Bermuda Dune Buggy (Gin, Overproof Rum, Kumquat Liqueur, Cassis, Orange, Lime, Bitters, two-star boozy rank, $18). It had a very unique garnish of a Chartreuse infused gummy which was delicious. The drink was nicely balanced, and didn't really drink boozy even with overproof rum in it. They have a rotating monthly cocktail and she tried the Tropic Like It's Hot (Coconut Washed Lemongrass Infused Rum, Mango, Lemon, Coconut Water, Amaro, $17) which was created by one of our bartenders Daniel. It was served in a Spam can and was light and refreshing with a nice pop of fruit at the start, and a very nice coconut flavor. We enjoyed sitting at the bar and had great conversation with our bartenders Daniel and Monica. They also provided excellent service. Broken Compass supports payment with the InKind app which gives you 20% back (10% on Friday and Saturday) in InKind cash. We had a really great time here, and the drinks, food, décor, and atmosphere were excellent. I purchased a Hork (Horse-shaRK) mug for $50 to bring home as a souvenir. We would definitely return again when in the area.

    I had the delicious Wagyu Truffle burger and decided to add bacon and chipotle aioli because why…read morenot, and it was incredible. The burger came loaded with a juicy grilled jalapeño, tomato, mushrooms, grilled pineapple, red onions etc, on a soft brioche bun. Everything worked together really well and the flavors were rich without being overwhelming. My buddy had the Baja Fish tacos and said they were delicious. My wife ordered the Corner Breakfast special with eggs, bacon, and French toast, and she really enjoyed it. My friend's wife got the Frittata served in a cast iron pan, and that also looked and tasted great from what I could tell. Portions were solid across the table, and everyone left satisfied. Prices felt fair for the quality of food you're getting.

    At this point, The Corner might need to start assigning us our own table…read more Came back again -- this time with my friend-- because my first visit with my mom was THAT good, and somehow it still lived up to the hype. We ordered pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, potatoes, sausage, drinks... basically enough food for a small brunch party lol. And somehow we still ate EVERYTHING. Not a crumb left behind. The pancakes were fluffy, the waffles had that perfect crispy edge, and the breakfast plates were super comforting without feeling overly heavy. But let's talk about the drinks for a second because they absolutely stole part of the show The presentation alone was gorgeous. Tajín rims, dried fruit garnish, pretty colors -- the kind of drinks that make you pause before taking the first sip because you already know they're about to be good. And they were. By the end of brunch, we were in a full food coma fighting for our lives but honestly? Worth it. The Corner continues to be one of those spots where the food, drinks, and vibes all hit at the same time. Definitely becoming one of my comfort brunch spots. :

Not for myself... lmao, since I was new here, but you can tell that everyone knows each other, and it's just a really friendly environment to be in. I felt totally safe, even though I was one of like three girls there, and honestly, everyone was super nice, super friendly, and sarcastic--just the way I like it. It was easy to feel comfortable and even easier to want to come back. They have a really solid beer selection, but the real winner is their cider--it's 8% alcohol, which is insane for a cider, but hey, I'm not complaining. They had the hockey game on, which I definitely appreciated, and they also have a pool table where you can write your name down to play. 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. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd definitely recommend checking it out and maybe even making some new friends while you're there. (If you go in, tell the bartenders, I said hi)
