    Eeeeey cute outdoor seating. Love the lively crowd here. And my goodness, this shrimp “roll”/bun hit the spot so good for late night munchies. I’m fact, all their appetizers and menu items are on point. You could valet for parking but tbh I found street parking to be easy as well.

    The courtyard had a great ambiance! Good selection of drinks and food. Reservation recommended. There appears to be a 2-hr limit. We had a 6pm reservation on a Friday evening, and were asked to clear the table at 8pm.

    A really fun bar near the Arts District downtown with great food and drinks. They have seating inside and out as well as happy hour every day from 4 to 6. It’s extremely loud out on the patio outback so sometimes it’s hard to hear the waiter or people at your table, but it’s still a really fun time. Casual, but trendy. They are known to have an amazing burger, and I agree. It’s on the smaller side but it’s still really very tasty. Tonight I started with the Biscuits which were small, but honestly delicious. Perfectly salty with a really sweet honey butter on the side. For my entrée, I got the Single Burger, but made it a double and added avocado. We also ordered the Nachos for the table and they may be my new favorite dish here. The french fries are actually not my favorite, but are not bad by any means. Washed down my meal with the House Lager and could’ve easily ordered many more of them. Parking is pretty easy in this part of town, we were able to find a space right out front, however, they do have a pay lot right next-door as well. I would definitely recommend to any bar fan.

    Excellent bar with an amazing selection of spirits and If you're reading this, you probably already know their biscuits are to die for. The rest of the food is amazing also, especially the burger... But the Biscuits🤤

    Came and met friends here the other day for happy hour. The hosts and the bartenders are very welcoming and so is the staff. Everyone is very helpful and pleasant. Especially when we come in with someone in a wheelchair and they have to set tables up. We were very appreciative. The food was bar food. A little disappointed on taste of the drinks and the food but we enjoyed the atmosphere and music and the personality of our server. We would definitely give it a second chance.

    We sit outside and it was really loud with a lot of groups that had a celebration. We ordered the nachos and they were good. The cocktails are strong but I didn’t like mine (but that’s just a wrong choice of me). My wife ordered a beer with a vodka, she got a mescal with kombucha. I ordered the ribs and for the second time in my life I returned the food. The ribs were tough, really small for 16$, half of it was cartilage, they didn't fall off the bone, and had no taste. The waiter suggested I could order something else, so I went for the pulled pork sandwich. After 10 minutes, I received a sandwich and took a bite, only to find out it was a cheeseburger. I informed the waiter, who was in a panic because I was now eating someone else's food, and he asked who had given it. Unpleasant situation because I couldn't even enjoy my burger due to the chaos. I will never go here again, and I would advise against it for others as well. The only reason it has 2 stars is that the nachos were tasty.

    We had a 630pm Friday reservation on the patio @ ERB to get some food before an event in the Arts District. The reservation was definitely needed for the patio, but the inside tables and bar area had a lot of seating available for walk-ins. They gave us a table number with the time marked of when our 90-min reservation would be up. After being seated on the patio, I changed my mind and asked to be seated inside, and our server was really nice about moving us. We hadn't had the burger previously, but had read a lot of raving reviews about it. My husband had the burger and agreed with all of those positive reviews. The shrimp roll was light and good, but a bit difficult to eat with the burger bun because the pieces of shrimp kept falling out. If it was a more "traditional" lobster roll bread with the bun enclosed on one side, it would have been much easier to eat. The service was very speedy, possibly because we were so close to the kitchen and the area where all the servers were waiting for food and drinks to be ready. They were maybe a little too zealous about wanting to clear our plates, which made us feel a little bit rushed, but all of the staff were friendly, professional, and seemed happy to be there.

    Probably one of the safer options if you want to go out for a patio drinking experience. They have screens separating each table and have a pretty strict reservation guideline. We got lucky- had an early dinner at Bestia and snuck over to try our luck, we got turned away because we didn’t have a reservation but the hostess found us outside (as we tried to figure out plan b) and said they had a one hour opening for us to grab a few drinks. Bar hopping is definitely a thing of the past now guys! 😭😭 Anyway drinks were strong and came out pretty fast. Tables spaced apart with screens and didnt take away from the cute outdoor patio (not as cute as before but you know)

    Come for the drinks, but stay for the food! While the burger is famous, try the patty melt and chicken thighs. We got multiple rounds of biscuits. Maybe the best we’ve ever had: had elements of a puff pastry. Note to mgmt: bar staff definitely a bit aloof. Had to ask two different bartenders two different times for things like extra napkins and to close out - could have a little more care for folks running up tabs well before it got too busy.

    Valet parking. Nicely lit. LA vibes. Good music. Drinks and food are very flavorful. The Single burger is jam packed with flavor. Good amount of fries. The patty melt was delicious 😋🤤

    A nice chill place on an early Sunday afternoon Warmly greeted & friendly service Burger & fries are DELICIOUS! You can taste the quality of beef, the bun was perfectly toasted. The fries even though light in color were tasty & totally worth ordering again. The Bourbon Baird (aka Old Fashioned) was strong & goes down so nice ordering another is a must. The Quick Fix Cocktail was super refreshing Restroom was clean which is always one of the top 3 things I'm looking for. Parking was $10 in a nice big parking lot versus parking on the street.

    This place had a great ambiance and I loved that it had an outside option for a big group so everyone could talk. Though it was chilly there was a heater that made it even more cozy. Nice hangout spot

    This is a super cool place. I love when a place doesn't look like anything from the outside. Then you walk in and are pleasantly surprised. Very good collective server coverage. And the drinks were good. Definitely try the prickly pear margarita. *chef kiss*

    I just had a memory of a trip to LA a few years ago. After dinner at Bestia my husband and I went on the hunt for some drinks. We discovered this fantastic little bar and settled in for a few hours. The staff was so friendly that when we left as the bar closed they sent us away with some of their famous biscuits that we’d read about to have for breakfast. They baked them fresh for us! The next morning as we shook off our drunkenness we were delighted at the thought of eating these delightful biscuits, but they were nowhere to be found. After some investigation we found the packaging in the trash and realized we’d already eaten them the previous night. I unfortunately have no idea what they tasted like and I was very disappointed. I will have to come back to LA one day and have a redo at them.

    Honestly don't love bars too much but this place really emphasizes a great experience. Servers came frequently and the entire process of ordering, getting food, and table service was great. Outdoor patio is very clean and well lit. The music is USUALLY loud at bars but not this one. You can easily have a conversation with somebody without yelling at the top of your lungs. Food was delicious and the drinks were well priced. Definitely coming by again.

    I came here with a large party for a birthday celebration. The staff were friendly and attentive. Reservations were timed, capped at 2 hours, depending on how big your party is. Drinks were really good. The burger was tasty, and the potato taquitos were alright (not the best, but okay).

    Happy Hour runs Tuesday to Sunday 4 - 6pm. Sat at the bar to be close to the action. Got an ERB lager $6, fries and chicken and biscuits $12. I really enjoyed the fries here, more than the chicken and biscuits. The chicken which is bbq marinated, was very salty. The biscuits were pretty good, hot buttery and flakier than other spots. Almost like a slight Mille feuille top than gradually turns into a softer flakier biscuit towards the middle. ERB lager is great. 9/10 for drinkability as I prefer lighter beers. Great service, slightly dim atmosphere. Large area in the back for bigger groups. I will come back to try the burger as I'm told it's also great.

    Fun place to drink and/or eat in the Arts District. Made a reservation for 9:30 on a Saturday, and since we had a group of 10, we were split into 6 and 4. We were originally sat at opposite corners, but the employees were super helpful once we requested to be sat at tables next to each other and everything worked out! The tables are outdoors though there is the bar and a couple of small booths indoors. There are three single occupant gender neutral bathrooms in the hallway and there was always a short line. Credit cards are accepted - you have to put one down at the start of your time (we had 90 mins) but they can divvy up the bill among different cards once you close out. Street parking or there’s a paid lot next door. The burger is simple but really tasty. The fries are standard and have ketchup and an aioli on the side. The mango lassi drink (with vodka) was served in a paper cup which I thought was a little weird but the drink was smooth and well blended, so c’est la vie. The aperol spritz was a bit too licorice-y for my taste, but my friend liked it. Overall, it’s a chill spot to hang in a big group or when you want some good late night food with your drinks.

    Was an alright place. I think I expected more of a bar in the la arts district but it was fine. Got the Last Train to Kingston cocktail, which was ok. Everything was just okay. I was there for a friends birthday and it was annoying that we had to keep reserving our table, because it was time limited. Also, just heads up that they don’t really have a sign, it’s just a big neon “bar” light out front. A couple people accidentally walked into the wrong places because of it. If I lived locally I think I might have liked it a bit more to be fair

    Some bars just got it. Everson Royce Bar is one of those bars. Went on a weeknight and despite it being a relatively slow evening, ERB still brought the same energy as your favorite bar on a weekend. The staff was nice, the playlist was fire and the food was so good it makes you reevaluate what is possible under the moniker "bar food". I tried the grilled chicken thighs, potato taquitos and biscuits and every dish was expertly prepared. The fact that downtown LA is so severely limited for non food truck late night dining options, ERB's kitchen is all the more clutch. If you are looking for a good time, good food and good vibes ERB is a must

    This is a really great place to not only hang out but also impress guests from out of town. It's really welcoming not only with the ambiance but staff really do create stellar energy. Our waitress (pink hair) was super hospitable and accommodating. My husband just moved here from out of town and she really went the extra mile to make him feel at home. I really appreciate her for that. I also never mention the servers but they're also really nice! You have to park on the street but it's totally worth it for good food, drinks, and awesome vibes!

    Excellent drinks, food, service, and atmosphere. The burgers are good and the biscuits are to die for.

    Brought my homie here to try a real burger and he was not disappointment. The fries could’ve been bigger and thicker though. The bartender make me a great Mocktail - shout out to that guy.

    Loved this place. The drinks are fantastic, the burgers are delicious and the biscuits are amazing.

  • 5/5 Mel 11 months ago on Google
    One of the best bars in LA to eat and drink without breaking the bank. Some of the best bar food I've ever had, period. The staff is phenomenal and took such great care of us. The patio is gorgeous. I loved the frozen Paloma. Don't leave without trying the biscuits or you'll regret it for the rest of your life.

    They serve thee MOST delicious burger! I ordered a double patty on mine and their fries are the best shoestring fries with ranch dip. Their ginger lemonade is to die for with just the right amount of salt around the rim to counter the yummy sweet and tartness of the drink. Luca was our waiter and offered the most excellent customer service. We sat at the tables in the back which offered a much more open atmosphere. Everyone was outstanding, from the door guy who checked our ID, to our server, Luca to the manager; absolutely recommend Everson Royce Bar💖

    Great place to hang! The crowd is super chill and there was a good mix of experience in the crowd. Food was great for bar food and the drinks were strong. Probably not the place for craft cocktails but pretty decent if you want to get crunk. The ambiance and group atmosphere is what does it. Just try it.

    Great orange wine and appetizers! Really enjoyed the crispness of the orange wines they had here! Staff was also very attentive by clearing and checking in with us without being annoying. Not to mention food came out quickly too! They have a indoor and back patio seating area with the heaters as well.
