The Guest House — Restaurant in Los Angeles

When my group came the young female greeter said, "Ew, going to make me sicky," with a disgusting look and stuck her tongue out in disgust.

We were at the bar, bought a bunch of food and drinks, and then were told that our table was next door to the restaurant.

Then, when we got to the restaurant. Right when we got there the waitress asks what drinks we wanted, we literally just got there and then she starts going, "anyone ordering drinks? anyone ordering food? NO?? no one's ordering anything?!?"

we didn't even have the chance to look at the menu and she quickly assumed we weren't interested in buying anything when we didn't get a chance to even think or settle in.

Then we were told by that female waitress that we had to leave because it was trivia night, and there was a table for us near the bar, despite our wishes to stay for trivia night.

We walked BACK to the bar, and there was NO table. We found a spot outside on the patio, and the chairs were NOT SET UP and WET. The fireplace wasn't on we had to ask for that.

So here we are, pulling a stack of chairs and setting them up for our party outside on the patio with wet chairs. Yup, we set up our own chairs.

Once we were settled we bought more food and drinks.

We had a large group of people and two people, one male, and one female, come out probably working there... and said, "Love that you're having fun, love that for you. Love that. Love that. love that. love that. We're TRYING to pay attention to trivia so keep it down!" extremely passively aggressively. I couldn't understand what the other guy was saying.

It was such an unwelcoming experience. I would not spend another cent here. The people are stuck up. The food & drink overpriced. Legit the service doesn't want to serve you, greet you, seat you, or want to let you have a good time even after you paid because of trivia night?!?

Take your money else where, so you could deal with higher...

We LOVE The Guest House!! I've been there individually for brunch during the day and it was lovely and charming. And most recently we had our holiday party hosted by The Guest House and it was amazing!!!!

The staff at The Guest House is wonderful! From Nick who made the event planning so easy and streamlined to the staff that worked with us on event day, it was ALL fabulous!! Working with Nick was a breeze! He was always available and attentive and accommodating. He worked with our budget, answered all my questions and was very kind during every communication. On our event day, every single member of the staff that worked in our event was kind, attentive and very sweet. Everyone made us feel welcome and made sure that we had everything that we needed. Our event was perfect!!

The guys during our event was so delicious!! The Guest House was incredibly accommodating to all of our dietary needs and our budget. They really worked with us and made sure that we had something for everyone. But also, they put together an absolutely delicious menu! All the food was to die for!

Thank you The Guest House for an amazing time!!!! We'll...

I made a special x-town trip from my Santa Monica hotel to reconnect with this fun restaurant in hip Los Feliz. Inside its got the feel of a Hollywood Golden Era speakeasy, with its birthstone paint schemes and upholstered seats. Outside its a fairyland of pearlstrand lights and a bubbling stone fountain.

This being LA, not my usual Chicago, I sat outside beneath a heat lamp with my kid on a chilly early December night and scarfed a superb chicken sandwich. It was fried to perfection and filled the sturdy toasted bun 2x over. With a side salad it was a very satisfying meal.

Afterward, we walked a long block west to a nice book store on Vermont Ave, admiring the bungalows and palm trees dolled up for the holiday season. If you're in the mood for a good sandwich, craft drink, and prices that aren't completely zonko, Guest House is a very...
