Deviled eggs
Marshay D.

Ok I love all the Hillstone Group restaurants!! This was my first time eating at The Honor Bar and it was 5/5!! I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich without the bread, devil eggs, and kale salad!! And OMG it was very good!! Even without the bread it was still on point!! The slaw was very tasty and yummy!! Kale salad with the peanuts was perfect! For my drink it ordered the Turnball Cabernet red wine that was suggested by Dylan and it was very good for my palette. The service was great! Dylan was our sever and he was very nice! And personable and easy going. Our order was not incorrect and it came out fresh and hot. But of course that's nothing new with Hillstone restaurants, they are all phenomenal!!! It's also located next to their sister restaurant South of Beverly. The Honor Wine is right next to it as well. It's dark and gives semi-upscale vibes! It's not that spacious since it's a bar so it's usually a long wait. I recommend coming early or trying to do reservations. This place is good for date night or a drink after work. I will return when I can!! I was not disappointed with my experience or food!! They have street parking and valet for $20! -Marshay D.

Let me start this review by saying the chicken sandwich and the burger were both PHENOMENAL! Definitely worth whatever it takes to get it. Now, the place is super small with weird seating. I like the dark vibe it has going though. The most frustrating part of it all? Servers came off super pretentious and would intentionally walk by your table without looking to avoid you asking them anything. Moreover, the place doesn't let you make many changes to your order. For example, if you ask for easy rice on the sushi, they will say no. If you ask for them to put the avocado on the side due to an allergy of one member of the group, they will say no. Our items came out SUPER slow, and this was after waiting a while for a table. The sushi is subpar - heavy on the rice and not enough fish. However, the coconut shrimp roll was good. That all being said, I'd go back and deal with it all again for the chicken sandwich and the burger. Both were a bit heavy on the bread in comparison to the protein, but delicious nonetheless.

Had an amazing experience at honor bar. The service was impeccable. It took a while to get service; however, once someone took my order everything was really efficient. My drinks and order came out swiftly and my burger was cooked perfectly. I rarely order medium rare burgers but I heard the quality was amazing here and it really was. The taste was really unique. The only downside is it kinda falls apart on you and you have to use a fork and knife. Very classic ambiance.

Always a good time at the Honor bar. Service is always outstanding and the a atmosphere is amazing. The food is always hot and fresh . All the staff is pleasant and get you in and out.

Honor Bar is always amazing, and I honestly hate that I don't leave a review every time. The Honor Burger is consistently great, the coconut shrimp was delicious, and the fries might actually be better than South Beverly, which sounds crazy but might be true. I also love that you can buy a bottle of wine there and enjoy it with dinner without a corkage fee. Short version: great food, great setup, always

Finally made it to the Honor Bar and it was mid-afternoon so able to grab a booth. Fun, cool atmosphere. Food was on-point. Great versions of a chicken fried sandwich with fries and their addictive season salt. Deviled eggs were good but not the best I've ever had (Yardbird's). Service was friendly and attentive throughout. Can't wait to go back to try the famous burger and a sushi or two.

The food is pretty good but I wouldn't say it's mind blowing. The vibes are good but the wait is insanely long (1.5-2 hours on a Wednesday). Service is pretty good too - attentive servers that are nice.

Great vibes and service. Definitely a good collection of bottles and the bartender I had was amazing! She was knowledgeable and able to make exactly what I want! Definitely recommend!

Have yet to step foot into this restaurant, always order to go but have ordered their chicken sandwich at least 20+ times now, it is by far the best chicken sandwich I have ever had in my life

Gin cocktail
Rachel L.

Decided to come here to have solo birthday dinner last minute, I walked-in Ordered crispy chicken sandwich (10/10): Portion is generous, not your basic bar food quality. Chicken is crispy, juicy and fresh. Everything is well-balanced. Bartender Ben made me a gin cocktail with St Germain, drinks are nice, not watered down Service is really nice and warmth, great hospitality. Didn't need to wait for a long time, got seated fast. Would definitely come back again!

I will dine at a Hillstone establishment any day :) The Honor Bar is a quick way to grab a bite of some of Hillstone's staples. Love that if you don't want anything too heavy they also offer sushi. Great spot to meet up with a friend for a quick catch up! Service is always great.

I have no complaints! I stopped by after work and had a glass of wine and the chicken sandwich. You're probably thinking "chicken sandwich?" But trust me it's delicious!!! Bread is buttered, chicken crispy, great portion, and perfect balance of savory and fresh. I sat at the bar and they constantly checked to see if I was good or needed anything. This little place does get packed so be prepared for a slight wait if you don't have a reservation. I was by myself and got seated fairly quickly.

I've been waiting YEARS to try the famous chicken sandwich at Honor Bar..and let me tell you, it was worth every second of the wait. Perfectly crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Easily one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. The service here is top-notch--friendly, efficient, and attentive. A quick heads-up: they don't take reservations, but if you call the number listed on Yelp, they'll reserve a table at their sister restaurant next door. Just know that it has a different menu (but still a great vibe). We also tried a few sushi rolls and were pleasantly surprised by how good they were. My favorite was the pressed tuna roll...super fresh and packed with flavor.

Is your food the same as the Beverly Grill, particularly the hamburger?

I think the burger is available in both places but Honor Bar has very limited menu, S.B.G. has a full menu

Do you take dinner reservations?

The best dining experience in Beverly Hills I've ever had!…read more From the moody decor to the food to the service, everything was so well curated and refined. The caviar omakase is the must order thing here. Everything is very small bites, but if you are mostly there for drinks then à la carte is a good option. The omakase was fantastic - nice sized portions of caviar, paired with thoughtful items like a mini lobster roll, a salmon burger, and even ice cream. The drinks are also delightful - you can taste the notes of every ingredient and nothing was too overpowering or unbalanced. But the service is by far the main reason we'll be back. The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, on top of being knowledgeable and presenting the menu in a well practiced way. They made this birthday dinner so special and went above and beyond. They do automatically add gratuity but I would've tipped more than that if possible. Incredible spot in Beverly Hills and more private and tucked away than some of the overly packed tourist destinations.

Matt B. and I had dinner in Beverly Hills a few weeks back and wanted to grab a nightcap before…read morecalling our Uber home. We ended up at the Maybourne Bar in the Maybourne hotel, a solid B+ lobby bar that I'd visit again under similar circumstances. The space was attractive but the vibe was strange, if not uncomfortable. Just weirdly bright lighting and a different crowd from the usual L.A. bar scene (hotel, Beverly Hills). It was pretty quiet at 10:00 on a Saturday night, and we were able to grab seats at the bar. Service was fast and polite. We ordered a Midas Touch and a Big in Japan, both decent cocktails that cost a full $30 apiece. The Midas Touch was a colorful spicy margarita with El Tesoro Maybourne Edition Reposado, Empirical Ayuuk, Grand Marnier Louis Alexandre, saffron, lemon, and honey. Big in Japan was a Gold Rush variation with Hibiki Harmony, sudachi honey, lemon, sansho pepper, and yuzu bitters. There are better, more interesting cocktail bars all over L.A., but I'd recommend the Maybourne Bar if you're staying at the hotel or otherwise looking for an upscale bar in downtown Beverly Hills. You can get food, too, though most of it seems to involve caviar.

My friend and I were a bit boozed out from the night before, so we stuck with a handful of sharable platters including California rolls and ceviche, all tasted amazing. Nothing was too heavy and the portions were all manageable, not too small or too large. The outdoor seats were very cushy and comfortable, it's perfect for sitting with your fur baby, and the restaurant provided water bowls upon request as well. Servers were all really friendly and the food did not take long to come out, though it wasn't too busy that Sunday afternoon around 3pm. Would definitely come back here to try the cocktails with other fusion bites next time we're in the area!

We ordered rolls, salads, ceviche, and pasta, but everything was just okay--nothing memorable. We had to ask for wasabi and ginger three times, and the server seemed confused. Service overall was friendly but very slow, and the restaurant wasn't even full. The pasta was a miss, and the "salad" wasn't really a salad. Drinks were the highlight--great martinis and well-made cocktails. That said, our bill was over $600, and none of us left full. Portions are tiny. Go for drinks and ambiance, but I'd skip the food.

Every detail of our experience stood out, and it quickly became our favorite restaurant of the trip. Safe to say Dante blew every other place we visited out of the water. We can't wait to come back!

It took over an hour for our food to come out. Whenever we asked our waiter for an update, he seemed annoyed and would just tell us, "probably another six or seven minutes," rather than actually checking on the status of our food. He also hardly checked in on our table, and we had to ask for drink refills instead of them being offered. At one point, he even spilled food on our table, and overall the service felt inattentive and dismissive. We also had to remind him multiple times that we were celebrating a birthday, which was frustrating considering it was supposed to be a special dinner. For the type of restaurant Dante presents itself as, I expected much better service. Waiting over an hour for our food would have been frustrating on its own, but the lack of communication and the attitude from our waiter made the experience significantly worse. Unfortunately, the service really put a damper on what was supposed to be a birthday celebration.

I've been to the Lucky Tiki in HLP and finally had the opportunity to check out the WeHo location…read more The occasion - my "brother's" birthday. We had reservations for a Sunday night and were seated at the best table in the house. This speakeasy cocktail lounge is small & dimly lit, which creates a cozy & intimate atmosphere. The Polynesian inspired décor is on point. Bamboo beaded curtains, thatched lamps, tropical prints, & an eight-foot tiki statue add to the charm. Our server Sean was fantastic with a capital F! He entertained us the entire evening. Of course, Tiki cocktails served in kitschy glassware are the main attraction but they also offer Island inspired dishes if you are hungry. (You can also order food from Tail O' The Pup downstairs.) The building was once the recording studio for The Doors, so we had to order The Ghost of Jim Morrison. Sean delivered the flaming drink while singing a Doors tune. Elvis in Hawaii arrived on a platter with an Elvis head on it. Lucky Tiki Old Fashioned was presented in a treasure chest with smoke coming out of it. The Flying Fish came in a cool Blowfish vessel. The Lucky Mai Tai was one of the best, the Classic Daiquiri was nicely balanced, and the Rum Barrel packed a punch. All the drinks were tasty and strong so we ordered a few nibbles: Coconut Shrimp, Lucky Orange Chicken, & Wok-Fried Chow Mein. The food was yummy and hit the spot. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the presentation of the drinks and ambience. Thank you Sean for making our visit to Lucky Tiki a 5-star experience. *Metered street parking.

I love a tiki bar (usually a wine drinker, but a dry martini or a good tiki drink, will speak to me at times!) and this place does not disappoint. Service is easy and the vibes are so fun. They have fun gimmicky drinks (Captain's Inner Circle!) and the old stand bys (exceptional Mai Thai.) The decor is also so fun (Jim Morrison's old studio) and you can order hot dogs from downstairs. Only reason they aren't 5 stars? They implement seating time limits, even when it's not super busy. I 100% understand they have to have turnover, but I would gladly pay a little extra, to hold a longer reservation! Street parking, but don't drive...get a driver or a Waymo!

It strikes that perfect balance between intimate and lively, making it ideal for a date night or an evening out with friends. They also have a little hangout area toward the back that I unfortunately didn't get a chance to explore.

If hungry you can order Pizza from your seat through a bar code and pick it up next door! The Al Capone is worth trying if you are into spice!

What's left is a joyless little room with indifferent management and service that can feel actively hostile. It can get very crowded, but... The energy is just off. It no longer feels warm or welcoming, and the type of crowd it attracts now can make the cramped space feel actually menacing. The staff also becomes strangely abrasive and aloof. Especially the younger male bartender who works on Fridays. I would never go again. Even trying to order another drink somehow feels like you're inconveniencing them. It's genuinely sad how they've managed to ruin what used to be a good thing. There is absolutely no reason to put up with this place when you could go to Cecconi's, the Tower Bar, Bar 1200 at the Sunset Marquis, Jones Hollywood, Laurel Hardware, Ysabel, the Roger Room, On the Rox, or Mic's instead. The name a few! Any one of them will give you a better room, a better atmosphere, and a much better evening. TBH, I would rather endure the mechanical-bull chaos of Saddle Ranch than spend another night dealing with the bizarre vibe here. That alone should tell you everything. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
