"A reasonably priced burger spot spun off from the steakhouse, it has grown into a successful chain with locations in Venice, Silver Lake, Hollywood, Long Beach, and the Grove. The outlet hours are daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m." - Matthew Kang

"When I don't want to spend an afternoon massaging kale, I head to the Window in Silver Lake for its $7.95 kale salad. The salad starts with a base of kale cut into crisp little ribbons, dressed in an acidic lemon vinaigrette; pecorino Romano, pine nuts, and croutons are generously piled on, resulting in everything that feels like too much of a hassle to make at home. For those looking to make the salad a meal, add a fried chicken cutlet and a side of fries." - Eater Staff

"Breadblok has formally opened in Silver Lake. The open-air cafe space next to the new Window at 1529 Griffith Park Boulevard is open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. serving a whole array of gluten-free baked goods and other treats." - Farley Elliott

"Opening Sunday, December 19 at 1529 Griffith Park Boulevard, the new Silver Lake location will operate daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and serve the same almost impossibly inexpensive offerings — a single cheeseburger is still $3.95 — plus smash burgers, fried chicken sandwiches, grain bowls, and salads; this outpost will also offer milkshakes and dipped ice cream cones, a feature the group hopes to add to future Window locations, and given the popularity of the Westside original and the Venice Boardwalk spot, expect a line." - Farley Elliott
