Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for 3rd-4th dates or casual first meetups. The sports bar atmosphere and noise level make intimate conversation challenging during peak times. Request upper level seating for quieter experience, or visit off-peak weekday evenings.

Is it kid-friendly? Yes, especially for lunch and early dinner (before 7pm). Menu has approachable options kids enjoy (burgers, mac and cheese). Later evening shifts to bar crowd. High chairs available. Best for ages 8+ who can handle moderate noise.
Good for large groups? Excellent for groups of 6-12. The two-level layout offers semi-private areas, and the six-items-per-category menu structure makes ordering for varied tastes easier. Call ahead for parties of 8+.
What's the happy hour situation? Strong happy hour scene with discounted appetizers and drinks, typically weekdays 3-6pm. Bar area fills quickly with industry professionals from nearby studios and offices.
Best For
Better for: Groups needing diverse menu options in one place, business lunches wanting elevated casual (not stuffy), sports watching with quality food beyond typical bar fare, parties wanting semi-private group space without private dining commitment.
Skip if: You want intimate quiet dining, seeking cutting-edge culinary innovation over solid execution, need extensive vegan options, or want trendy Instagram-worthy ambiance over comfortable functionality.

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, especially for daytime dates - the rustic-cozy vibe and shareable plates create natural conversation starters without stuffy formality. Skip peak weekend brunch if you want quieter ambiance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Weekday lunches and early dinners (before 6:30pm) usually fine as walk-in. Weekend brunch and Friday/Saturday dinners book up - make reservation or expect 30-45 min wait. Bar seating is first-come, full menu available.
Is it kid-friendly? Very - listed as Family Friendly Favorite with good reason. Kids menu available, casual atmosphere means parents can relax, and shareable plates work well for picky eaters. High chairs provided. Best for lunch or early dinner to avoid evening bar crowd.
How big are the portions? Generous gastropub portions - most entrees satisfy one person, but the shareable plates (mac and cheese, nachos) easily serve 2-3. Come hungry or plan to split dishes.
Is the bottomless brunch worth it? Yes if you're staying 90+ minutes - unlimited mimosas, bellinis, or bloody marys with brunch entree. Kitchen paces food well so you're not rushed. Weekends only, arrive by 11am to avoid sellout.
Best For
Better for: Groups wanting shareable New American food without pretension - the cast-iron skillet presentations and prohibition-era vibe create Instagram moments while keeping prices reasonable. Their in-house approach (from-scratch sauces, house-cured meats) delivers quality that outperforms typical gastropub chains. Best weekend brunch deal in Studio City.
Skip if: You want quiet romantic dinner (go weeknight only), cutting-edge cuisine innovation (menu plays it safe with crowd-pleasers), or quick service (kitchen focuses on quality over speed). If you need guaranteed immediate seating on weekends, look elsewhere.
