The Edmon

Excellent experience, fabulous food, great drinks, wonderful server! I got drawn in by the sign advertising Happy Hour and this is what I got for $10.50!! Amazing grilled Caesar salad , added shrimp and bread. Made for an outstanding meal in a classic bar atmosphere.

We hit happy hour early on a Saturday. Delicious appetizers, a full bar, and creative cocktails. Relatively quiet when we arrived but noisy as it filled up as you would expect. A beautiful environment and excellent service.

I do the music coordination for The Edmon and also go there as a customer. It is always a solid place to meet with people, go on a date, and have an event! The food is excellent the drinks are great!

Lovely Art Deco bar with an extensive spirits selection, excellent Classic and house cocktails that are inventive. Outstanding food menu of all sizes and options from shareable to small plates and everything in between. Faultless, professional service yet very friendly . Highly recommend especially if you come early for the happy hour(s) and before the music starts. A great bar for any city and particularly for LA !

We came here after visiting the Paramount lot. It is literally right down the street. There is a decent sized parking lot in the back with free valet parking. They have an outside patio with lighting. We came in the evening and didn't sit outside so I didnt notice if they have heaters or not, but I would guess they do. Inside, the atmosphere was great. There were plenty of people there, but it didn't feel like we were on top of each other. The wait staff was pleasant. Our food and drinks came out reasonably quickly and it was very good! The pricing is what you'd expect in LA. My friend and I both said we are coming back. We want to explore the interesting menu options further.

This place is amazing! The food and drinks are delicious. The bartenders and staff were so friendly. Jarron ( bartender) was amazing-I enjoyed talking to him the 2 times I ate at the restaurant. The restaurant is next to the hotel with an entrance door in the hotel, which is super convenient.

What a great little spot, good service and while we only had the sliders and fries they were great, bevy tasty.

Such a rich and tasty happy hour! Excellent food and great drinks

My boyfriend surprised me with this restaurant for Valentines and he made a spectacular choice! Not only is the interior classy, beautiful, and warm, the patio is spacious and equally inviting with heat lamps and cushy booths. The servers were all incredible and very on top of their service, as I overheard our waitress switching between English and Spanish to the preference of each person at the table next to us. The menu is reasonably priced with great portion sizes, and everything was delicious. My boyfriend said this was one of if not the best burger he's ever had, we both agreed the peanuts were the star of the night!! My half chicken was savory and sumptuous, I can't wait to come back and try that gravy on the short rib poutine. The happy hour prices and options are phenomenal, and with their own parking lot in the back you can rest assured the Edmond has everything you're looking for and more.

Let's start with the oysters, 10/10 will refit recommend! I had a Porn Star Martini, about a 7/10. It was more lemony than I expected since I usually taste more passion fruit, but it was still yummy. The spot has a very grown and sexy vibe and I will be back. I came on a random night and the DJ played really good music. It's perfect for a girls night out or a nice intimate date. Our server was very attentive and everything ordered came out in a good amount of time.

Finally had a chance to stop by after a long long anticipated first visit but did not disappoint!! What a hidden gem and absolutely stunning and beautiful venue!! Humongous bar with plenty of table seating plus outside patios plus rear parking!!! Live dj spinning disco most of night. Staff were friendly and accommodating but bartender was super funny cool and made me an amazing white Mezcal Negroni....Delicious!!! Vibe was a little strange and lighting...? Maybe a little too bright but definitely would comeback. Also keep in mind they close early here....I think 11pm or midnight?

This is a gorgeous bar located in the Hollywood Historic Hotel. (Like the word "authentic," I always raise an eyebrow when I see the word "historic" in any name.) The Edmon has a solid food and cocktail menu, including a few nice mocktail options. The charcuterie plate (which comes with both meats and cheeses) is very nice. It is worth ordering just to get the basket of crisps that comes with it. I could have eaten a thousand of them. While the decor is very upscale, this being Southern California, you will see customers dressed in all manner of clothes, from cheap printed t-shirts to more upscale cocktail attire. Also, sports fans may be disappointed to learn there are no televisions in this bar. There is plenty of freeeee valet parking in the lot behind the historic hotel so you have no excuse for not visiting. This is a great-looking, comfortable bar for cocktails and munchies.

This is one of the cutest places for a night cap. Reminds me of a cafe in Paris with late night drinks and small bites. Every time I've come here I've enjoyed myself and the ambience. The lighting and the decor are very sophisticated and the food matches the vibe. I recommend for drinks and lite bits for a cozy, memorable evening.

The space alone makes it a worth stop. We were looking for a spot before a show at the pantages and were glad we found this place. Happy hour is from 4-7 do arriving at 5:30 gave us plenty of good options. Oysters were fresh with two sauces, duck confit tacos were flavorful and the nachos had a hint of what tasted like mole. We weren't done so we went for the short rib poutine - gooey and delicious. Old fashioned and glass of Grenache complimented the meal. Staff was attentive and we can't wait to return.

Who knew this lovely little hotel and its cozy dining and bar space was tucked away on Melrose ? I did not eat here, but we enjoyed a few very well made cocktails. Our barkeep was quick and skilled. I loved the decor which channeled speakeasy comes to old Hollywood. And huge bonus- they have their own parking lot!!! (Although I suspect it fills up quickly).

We had an amazing time at this place. The vibes were right, the patio was amazing. We had Vivian as the waitress and she was amazing! So kind and attentive. The food was incredible and a good time was had. I would highly recommend The Edmon! For a date night or a friend outing, you won't be disappointed!

Really impressed with the ambiance, service, drink and food choices. Really great 4-7pm weekday happy hours - good discounts off drinks, small discount off some food options. The tuna tartare with avocado was excellent!

Food was so much better than I anticipated!! We sat outside and ordered their peanuts and truffle fries. Large portions.

Excellent stop. Had a concert trip to the Wiltern so we popped in for a few drinks and apps. Great call. Parking was free and plentiful. The bar was gorgeous and the food was delicious. We had the $9 happy hour everyday Old Fashioned's. Perfect pours and paired it with some asada fries and Caesar salad. Now wish this place was closer to me. The bartenders were friendly and provided excellent service. Stop by for Happy Hour any day.

Great ambiance and service! We loved the various drink selection. Great date night location. The bartenders were helpful and fun.

It is quite hard to miss the rich architecture of the building where The Edmon is. When you step in, it gives the Great Gatsby vibes. Art deco with geometric shapes and lines upon entering thru its doors, plush velvet soft seating at the tables, sleek and sophsticated bar area with soft lighting and great music. This place is perfect for after work drinks or a night on the town. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Frenchie. He was cool energy, singing and dancing as he served up some great drinks. We ordered their Spot light cocktail which was gin based (this cocktail changes each time) and old fashioned. Both were delicious. We also ordered short rib barbacoa nachos which were perfect to share. Overall a great place to check out. Their happy hour is from 4pm - 7pm, reasonable expected cost based on location and parking was easy and convenient. I didn't check out their outdoor area but would be great to go back once weather gets better.

A beautiful bar & lounge. Drinks and food were delicious. Friendly service. A reminder of what Hollywood must have been in its height of glory. Bitter sweet

Almost a secret highway that's absolutely perfect. Food drinks atmosphere are perfection.

What a cool little spot! Came here before heading to the Pantages (which is only 2 miles away, great for getting a bite to eat or cocktail). They have a nice happy hour selection, from cocktails, beer and wine and shareable appetizers. Frenchie, our bartender was very helpful and when he stepped away, any of the other staff were happy to assist. He was also singing and dancing, which makes sense because their playlist was incredible. I had to SoundHound some songs for my own playlist. The food was delicious, we almost ended up ordering another plate of short rib nachos because they were so good! Topped with avocado and a side of green salsa, each nacho was full of flavor. I haven't seen any Downtown Brown on Draft anywhere, so I had to get it. They said they don't always carry it, so I was pleasantly surprised. We also tried their "Spotlight Cocktail" which changes from time to time. This time it was a Gin and Apricot concoction and I'd recommend it but I'm not sure if it'll be there when you go. But I always like trying things that aren't on the menu or seasonal just for an experience that I might have missed otherwise. We went on a Friday night and there were plenty tables but I recommend going to the bar since you get a good view of the place and can have interesting conversations with the bartenders and/or your neighbor.

Great staff, delightful cocktails, excellent scotch list, delectable food offerings. Accessible from within the hotel as well as from the street. Peaceful ambiance, low lighting, chill mood, great tunes.

Excellent flapper-style decor. Great food and stellar service. A fantastic late night haunt that is fun for dates, intimate parties and hungry after-show diners.

I'm staying at the hotel where this restaurant/bar is located and had been coming here every night for the past three days for drinks and food with a friend. On our third night, we decided to sit on the outdoor patio. Unfortunately, no one checked on us at all. Since we are hotel guests and the patio is always open, we brought a bottle of wine with us and asked the manager for a wine key. Instead of addressing us directly, the manager immediately sent a waitress to inform us of a corkage fee, which was initially stated as $20. We were fine with that. A few minutes later, she came back to say the fee was actually $30. This felt extremely disrespectful, especially considering we had been loyal customers for several days in a row, consistently ordering and tipping well. Regardless of how busy (or not busy) the night is, it's not acceptable to change fees on the spot just to make numbers look better. I also work in the hospitality industry, and over the course of these days, I noticed the manager never once checked on tables -- only standing around observing. Overall, the experience left a very bad impression!

Everyone here is incredibly nice! The decor is beautiful, the food and drinks are fantastic and it's a great vibe overall. Highly recommend.

$9 Cocktails for their happy hour that ends at 7PM is the way to go. But the "happy hour food" was still inflated hotel prices. We had to get 4 items averaging 14 each for two people to get full and that quickly added up because of how small the portions were. Starting with the cheese croquettes (14) you get.. three ONE bite balls with solid flavor. I was looking under my plate for the rest. The Duck Tacos (14) also come in threes and could be finished in two bites. Skip this. Dry and flavorless. The shrimp tacos (15) were much better than the duck tacos. Also comes in three and flavorful. Tiniest tacos Ive seen. I think street tacos are larger and for $1.75. Chorizo Sliders (14) were forgettable. Not great. The patio is giving converted parking lot pandemic. They tried with shrubbery and plants. Cute enough, but clearly a parking lot. It's a richer vibe inside and for what you're paying, it's best to stay there. I'd come back for the happy hour. Just to drink and catch up with someone for under $10. Drinks were tasty. The tease knees was a bit sour, but still good and very light on the liquor.

Going to say this again with my full heart. Constantly amazing food and drinks, gorgeous place, amazing service; just lovely. Frenchy the manager is cool AF with a great taste in music. EVERYONE that works there are beyond rad. I've never been disappointed.

This place is great. Fantastic cocktails, great service, knowledgeable bartenders. This is a must go type of place in LA, where it is getting harder and harder to get quality cocktails.

What does great secret fine... The happy hour is incredible! I'm at my daughter who lives in Silverlake halfway between where I live, and was so pleased with the service and food

Cool 1920s Art Deco space with a great happy hour! We decided to stop in here after having dinner a couple blocks away at Kuya Lord. Traffic getting back home looked terrible, and this seemed like the perfect place to grab a drink at to pass some time and wait it out. Opened in 2016, I believe this establishment is located on the first floor of the Hollywood Historic Hotel (est. 1927). While our time here was short and we didn't get to try any of their food, we enjoyed a quick round of drinks. With $8.50 glasses of wine, $5.50 pints of beer, and other specials during happy hour, The Edmon is certainly worth checking out if you're in the area.

The Edmon is my go-to spot for when I want to pretend I'm living my best L.A. life without having to leave my neighborhood. The patio out back is perfect for happy hour -- it's low key, not too loud, and has a vibe that says, "I'm here to have a drink, but I'm not trying to make life-changing decisions tonight." Plus, it's close enough that I can roll over without a long Uber ride or finding parking, so bonus points for that. Let's talk about the duck confit tacos. I don't know who's in charge of these, but they deserve a raise. The combo of crispy duck and whatever sauce magic they're using is a game-changer. I'd eat these every day if I didn't care about my cholesterol. Pro tip: Get an Old Fashioned to go with it. It's the right amount of strong without turning your night into a "why did I drink that?" situation. The service? Top notch. Our waitress was the kind of friendly that makes you wonder if she secretly remembers your name from the last time you were here. And if you're into people-watching, you'll notice plenty of regulars here. It's the kind of place where you feel like you could become a regular... and I absolutely will be as summer rolls in. Definitely will be back more often to soak up the sun and, let's be real, the tacos.

The ambience is excellent. I had a terrible date here, but it wasn't the restaurant's fault that the guy was so boring. And the food was good enough that didn't leave him at the table and run home crying about the state of masculinity in America.

I love what they have done with this elegant art deco treasure, The Edmon. Mind you, I remember when they sold elegant fireplace mantels here!! So to see the next gen of this family establishment give a nod to the past in the main bar and kitchen area, as they provide a beautiful indoor environment, as well as an outdoor space that is sheltered from the main traffic noise, is so so welcoming. They have a happy hour until 7pm- - a rare treat to get there after work without the rush. They have late night hours too, and live music! There are creative food items with more than token options for vegans and vegetarians. Thank you! Plenty for the carnivores, too. And the drinks were always delicious beyond expectations compared to the descriptions. Our servers have been very attentive, so very grateful for our overall experiences!!

Went here for happy hour - pleasant service, good food, historic bar, and excellent drink! Parking had to be valet as their self parking is small and full when I got there. They did validate, but you still have to leave the valet a tip - but hey, it is what it is!

Cute little restaurant part of the hotel, gives a little great gatsby vibe with the interior, and they have free parking!! Food was pretty good, the duck tacos were delicious, a little pricey for the small size so it's def a splurge. House burger and garlic fries were pretty decent too but nothing crazy. The only downside is that the place doesn't have great sound dampening so it's pretty loud inside and have to speak up to talk. Waiters were nice, came to check up every now and then, very straightforward. It's a perfect place for either casual or dress up night.

10/10 the ambiance, service, and food were delightful. Neby, my waitress, was the BEST! Very charismatic and bubbly! -For Dinner: Short Rib Cavatelli paired with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc 10/10! -For dessert: Olive Oil cake wish was amazing! Paired with an Espresso Martini 10/10! Would definitely visit again when I'm in town. THANK YOU! -A New Yorker

My husband and I just celebrated our anniversary here. I loved the ambiance and music. Decorations are gorgeous perfect spot for a date night. I thought this would just be a cool bar but man was I wrong! The food was absolutely amazing! Probably the best dinner we've had in a long time. We got the nachos, Cesar salad, and tiger shrimp! All delicious and super flavorful. The sangria was perfectly sweet! And don't miss out on the olive oil cake for dessert! Can't wait to come back'

Modern, flavorful fare in a beautifully Art Deco-themed dining hall. This place is walk-ins only, and when we arrived on a Monday evening the place was bustlingly busy, yet we were promptly greeted by friendly & hospitable staff. The setting is moody with old-school glamour, but the vibe is more of a relaxed, casual bistro. We ordered a variety of happy hour cocktails per our server's recommendations, and several dishes from the Happy Hour and main menu - savory duck confit tacos, tender calamari, melty short rib poutine, housemade cavatelli with pull-apart braised short rib (pleasantly spicy), my partner had "the best" burger he'd had in years - everything was a hit. My group's only complaint is that the music volume made it difficult to hold conversations. (Maybe we're just aging, but it felt a touch too loud - causing us and the surrounding tables to have to compete to talk over it. Would otherwise be a lovely date spot). Still excited to come back and get basically everything on the menu!

Ambiance is nice. I love the high ceiling. The cocktails were okay at best, which was odd considering how many nice liqueurs they have on the shelf. We tried the Cucumber Daiquiri on the happy hour, which had a strange aftertaste. I couldn't tell if it was a poor quality cucumber spirit or muddled cucumber that was too ripe. Lets talk about the service. Our bartender never gave us their name and then proceeded to stand in front of us with their arms crossed out of sheer boredom. It seemed like she was more interested in being security at an Amazon warehouse than bartending. Talk to your guests. This is how you make money. Either that or look busy. Find a task. Wipe down a bottle over and over. Another bartender showed up and was chatting with guests. He only came over to compliment my dates outfit when I went to the bathroom. As soon as I came back, he disappeared. lol. I don't even mind. We were laughing about it, but damn.

The food is delicious. The ambiance is Great Gatsby and art deco. We ordered the fried peanuts, poutine, and House burger. Everything was great. The caramelized onions on the burger were especially good. My wife got the poutine which was surprisingly good as well. This place is an amazing value, not too expensive and the food and ambiance are wonderful.. And there's free parking! Pretty awesome for LA.

One of the best meals I've had in LA. Hangar steak, poutine, goat cheese balls. Wait staff is preoccupied with talking to each other but the food wins out.

GREAT happy hour, M-F 4-7! With a free parking lot in the back, it couldn't have been a more stress free decision to come here. The bar is unique and classy. I got the Tea's Knees which was a wonderful riff off of a bees knees. My boyfriends old fashioned was tasty, but no cherry. The food was yummy but portions are very small. I didn't take a picture of the charcuterie platter but everything was sliced micro thin you could practically see through it. Service was a little slow, we didn't see our waitress for almost an hour at one point. Still a great spot to catch up with friends and enjoy craft cocktails.

I'm a local in the area and this spot has been a go to! Edder's a lovely bartender and always makes the best drinks (go to their happy hr 4-7!!). I was there last night and our server was Alex, who was checking in on us periodically as we were one of two tables out in the patio, much appreciated! Talia took over after and I just loved how she added a layer of laughs in our interactions. I ordered the vegetarian version of the charcuterie board TWICE, with the manchego cheese topping it off for me so the second round was all manchego and I was so happy they were able to accommodate that! As always, the Caesar salad was included in the meal and incredible as usual. My partner ended up getting the vegan burger and introduced it to our friend at the table who's never had one! He loved it! Personally thought it lacked the gorgeous char/crisp outer texture that is often missed in the prep of beyond meat patties.. but I've been making them for years now and have become a psycho in perfecting them. I love the fact that someone got to be introduced to them for the first time yesterday! Parking was full when we came in (strange for a Wed), but we got street spots and sat in the patio where they also had lamp heaters for the cool of the evening! The restaurants situated inside of the edmon hotel and has a swanky Gadsby vibe about it. Walk out feelin like a gangster every time. Thnx Edmon fam!

Beautiful atmosphere and great cocktails. The food was delicious and well-presented, and the service was friendly and attentive. Perfect spot for a date night or special occasion!

Lovely establishment with both indoor and outdoor seating options. Bonus for complimentary valet parking behind the building! I made it in time for happy hour (4-7pm) and shared the charcuterie, short rib barbacoa nachos, and fried calamari. The tea's knees cocktail was refreshing and food was decent too. FYI they have a limited wine menu. Overall, I'd be happy to come back here again. I enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the staff were all welcoming as well.

I had always passed by here and noticed the beautiful old Hollywood exterior on an otherwise somewhat desolate stretch of eastern Melrose near Larchmont, wondering what lied inside. I finally tried the Edmon and it did not disappoint. The inside is a beautiful and sophisticated art deco space and the cocktails are unique and delicious. Although I did not order food, the menu sounded delicious and I look forward to returning to try some food items and more of the many cocktail options!

WHAT A VIBE. I instantly fell in love before I walked inside because they have a parking lot out back! Then I walk inside to this gorgeous bar that has dim lighting and a great happy hour special. It was the perfect happy hour spot to relax, eat and drink some delicious drinks. We ordered a couple of their happy hour $9 cocktails - teas knees (earl grey, honey, gin), ginger margarita, and cucumber daiquiri (which was more like a martini). The syrups are all made in house, so you know the drinks are fire. Every drink we had was delicious so we ended up having 3 each! Got a little hungry but just wanted something basic so we opted for the garlic parm fries ($9) which was not on HH. It was SO GOOD. I would most definitely come back here for happy hour. It was just very vibey and I even think it would be perfect for a date night.

This is a hidden jewel. Hopefully it'll stay hidden as I love the ambiance and the food. The servers are great and have great energy.

This place is sooooo cute. The type of ambiance I love with inside out side option but also date night chic inside. But the real review is for our waitress Ebbie (hopefully I spelled it right) she was bomb.com and I highly recommend here when going here! Listen I am a girl who loves great customer service and she definitely is top tier. It was happy hour I had Caesar salad and the goat cheese balls (lol not literally but they were in ball shapes lol) anyways they were good but rich in taste so 3 can be a lot but the salad balanced it out which was delicious!!

We tried The Edmon while staying at the Hollywood Historic Hotel next door. It was quite a fun place. We only enjoyed their fun and beautiful bar. The service was friendly and welcoming. My drink didn't feel like it had any alcohol, but I still enjoyed it. That is why it is 4 stars! We did not eat there since we went there after dinner time.

Went to the Edmon for a party last night on the back patio. I've never been to this place - but i'll go back. So many people attended, and the party kind of took over - but the staff served everyone with patience and the service was above and beyond. Friendly staff and worked so hard. Well done to each person working July 1st for the Canada Day party.

The Edmon has the best food and ambiance! The service and staff are great. 10/10 would recommend.

Love this place. It has great indoor and outdoor seating. It's open seating so sit wherever you see an available spot. The drinks were top tier, food very tasty and the staff was pleasant and engaging. The nachos were exactly what we needed in taste and portion size. We went on a Friday night around 8 and there was a super dope Dj creating a vibe. We will be back!

Delish drinks and even better fries! Came here solo for a couple drinks on a Friday and enjoyed every minute. My favorite drink was the Tropic Thunder I believe and decided I needed to order the fries after smelling them after someone next to me ordered. The service was great and it was nice and cozy inside. This place will be my new neighborhood spot since it's walking distance from my apartment.
