Best Modern European Restaurants in Silver Lake

I celebrated my birthday party at L’Avenue, and really enjoyed it!!! Music is the best, food is so delicious .I’m very recommend this place. You’ll have unforgettable time! Will come back again.

Shirley Brasserie was a wonderful dining experience that paired the great atmosphere of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel with great food. The Restaurant occupies a quiet part of the Lobby area and is large enough to find seating but intimate enough to feel separated from other diners. The menu is spartan but focused, as is the wine list. The appetizers we had were first-rate and handsomely presented. I would recommend the chicken liver mousse, as it was special and hadn't seen it elsewhere. I consider myself an expert on duck and generally prefer it roasted, as many restaurants don't really have the expertise to properly sear it. Not true here. The duck was properly spiced and glazed and seared just right. For this style of preparation, I've not had better. The Shirley Brasserie is not inexpensive, but considering the quality of the food and service (which was also outstanding), I would rate it as a good value. Something for a special occasion.

The limonade was really overpriced 15$ so it was a surprise for us especially when you took 2 of them… more than an appetizer

Great food, tea and ambience! My sister and I very much enjoyed our tea time! It’s was a nice little getaway away from all the hustle and bustle of LA life. Located conveniently in the city, there was plenty of parking. We loved it and will be back soon.

We made reservations through Open Table months ago and never received notice that they are not yet open. All dressed up and got there to a construction zone. We called and never received a call back. We messaged them through Insta and never received a reply. Things happen, openings are delayed, but a phone call would have been appreciated. I received multiple reminders of my reservation, they HAVE to have some sort of communication with Open Table, but no one bothered to get in touch with us so we could make other plans. Happy Anniversary to us! 😒 ****We received a lovely note from the ownership and will be dining with them upon opening. At that time, we’ll let you know how it was. The note alone was reason to update our review.****
