Best Cocktail Bars in Silver Lake

Very special place, with two separate areas. The bar lounge is casual and comfortable, spaced out for intimate to large groups. Great decor and heaters. The dining indoor area is smaller and sophisticated, the main outdoor dining area is beautiful and spacious. Covered with heaters. Great, imaginative food and truly friendly service. Not cheap, but worth it. Especially loved the creative non-alcoholic menu, which lets you celebrate without booze.

Splendid experience all around! Our server, Alex, was lovely. Our food was presented so beautifully. My friend and I had a lovely time dining & catching up before we went to see a show across the street. It was just such a divine experience that I am planning to take others back to San Laurel.  The only problem was that my mocktail was made with alcohol. I don’t drink because I’m sober so it was very concerning that such an error occurred. That’s never happened in all my years of ordering mocktails at other fine establishments. After two sips and having my friend try it, I was convinced that there was indeed tequila added to my lime-based drink so I asked the waiter about it and he quickly whisked it away and brought me a true mocktail that tasted of citrus and definitely had no alcohol in it. That was a weird experience. The evening ended on a great note with a surprise complementary flan dessert for my friend’s birthday that included a candle and song-a very nice touch. Of special note is that the chef is actually accommodating to guests’ dietary sensitivities such as the need for gluten and dairy free ingredients. Such a breath of fresh air since other fine dining spots don’t usually like to make such modifications to their menu items. It was very much appreciated by this diner. Thank you San Laurel!

We had such a special meal at the Lonely Oyster. Definitely going back.

This is my favorite speakeasy type of bar lounge. Yes, it’s a little tricky to find but once inside it’s all worth it.

My experience at the Golden Hour was so beautiful. It had great city views, good music, and good food. I felt like I was in a movie. I would definitely recommend to family, and friends. Great for date night, or just a good night out with friends.
