The Hatchet Hall - Los Angeles

The food and drinks were outstanding. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. We enjoyed a family-style meal, and everything was delicious. The salad was the highlight of the table. The meatballs, chicken, and peppers were also exceptionally prepared. We'll definitely be back!

Fresh, local California cuisine with a hidden whiskey bar (Old Man Bar). Unfortunately the whiskey bar was closed for a private event, but we enjoyed a delightful meal in the restaurant. Note that they?ll only accepted reservations for large groups, soit?s walk-in only. There?s indoor and heated outdoor patio seating. You don?t get seated until the entire party is present, butyou can hang out at the bar until then. For the four of us, we split five dishes plus dessert. There were vegetarian options. Iwas told by multiple people to get the cornbread, but we opted for the ricotta toast instead (you can get ham on the side). Notethat the food comes out as it?s ready. The wedge salad is like a grown up Cobb salad, with delectable bits of lardonsinterspersed the leaves. It was quite drenched in ranch dressing, so be mindful of that. The Brussel sprouts were amazing andhad a great flavor. The lentil stuffed red pepper was alright, I would skip it. The Branzino was tender and came as a whole fish- the server who brought it out kindly filleted it for us. We ended with the sticky toffee pudding cake, which I would highlyrecommend. The ambiance was laidback and the patio was really pretty. It?s a good spot for a date or a small group catch up.Credit cards accepted. There?s restrooms available behind the bar to the right. There was a small parking lot that used to bevalet-only pre-Covid, but I didn?t see anyone there when I went. Otherwise, street parking. Overall, it?s a pricey but tastyexperience.

The drinks we had to start were excellent. I found the venison carpaccio to be intriguing, as it was our first time trying it, but I don't think I would order it again. However, the elk I chose was outstanding and cooked to perfection. The cornbread, which came a little later, ended up being a highlight for both of us. If you’re still reading, you probably know that the prices here are on the higher side. We were aware of that going in, but we wanted to make her birthday special.

We had an incredible experience at this restaurant. The atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and our server was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious—I highly recommend the toffee date cake; it's decadently rich and luxurious. This is the perfect place for a romantic date!

Hatchet Hall is a gem. Food was as impeccable as the service. Your glass of water will never be empty here. No sir. Our table ordered half the menu and we were not disappointed. We ordered ricotta toast (my favorite), biscuits, grilled peaches, old bayfries, deviled eggs, watermelon salad, grilled avocados, okra, grilled head of lettuce, shishito peppers, mussels, kampachiceviche and pork belly. All delicious and beautifully prepared. Drinks are also great and pairs well with their food. I wasdrinking their whiskey reserve all night. Venue is great for small or large parties with both inside or outdoor seating. Theyhave private dining rooms as well but requires a fixed menu. Parking can be tough valet available.
