The Dresden Restaurant & Lounge - Continental restaurant in Los Angeles - 1760 N Vermont Ave, USA

Had such a blast here last night. I am surprised that I had 5 martinis though. How in the h....? It was such a fun time. Great service, great drinks and the food was great. At about 9 a jazz band came one and performed. It was such a nice vibe. I've been here a few times so new what to expect and they didn't disappoint.

Fantastic old school Hollywood. Plush white booths, massive tomahawk steak and great cocktails and thats just the dining room. Great wedge salad app and white cake for dessert. The bar and lounge also have a great atmosphere and drinks. All plus $6 valet parking in the rear. A winner

We went there on a whim when were looking for a romantic place to have a nice meal. We found parking to be in a sketchy little lot with a guard watching something on his little TV, but at least he was there watching over the cars. Walking down into the restaurant was a challenge as the stairs are steep and the handrail is not super useful, but it is manageable if you take your time when you can't move quickly. However, once you go in, you are transported back to a different era where the seats are almost spread like a speakeasy and the wait staff is mostly on point. The waitstaff was really quite good to be honest. However,.... We got the crispy artichokes as an appetizer. They were not crispy, nor were they tasty. It was like they had been pickled, then frozen, then microwaved. They were inedible. As main course, we got sirloin and prime rib. The sirloin was tough as if it had been frozen, then thawed quickly, and grilled. The prime rib was fairly well done, if not seasoned. The mixed vegetables were clearly only broccoli and had been frozen as well. We decided to try a warm apple tart as dessert. That was soft, tasteless, and cold. We had several mixed drinks as well. If you can get through the over pour or the under pour, and the fact that the mixed drinks are $15 a piece, they aren't bad. I do recommend the chocolate martini. By the time we left, the place was hopping and very busy. The staff told us that reservations are always recommended after 5 on Friday and Saturday, but I don't see why. All in all, the food was gross but the service was good.

A very well made expresso martini was made here the other night and I had to give a shout out to the bar staff!! great work - great ambiance and I suggest getting here as early or as close to opening as possible - as this dining area around the music regions fills up very nicely and with lively patrons! I cannot wait to come back to The Dresden - its straight outta the 1950s (literally) and should be frequented frequently!

Love it! Definitely a reliable go to for great cocktails, atmosphere, service. The live music always kills. Had dinner here recently, the food and service were top shelf. My only qualm, there’s no wheelchair ramps into the dining area

Came here last minute for NYE. Place was alive with a great band and full house of friendly and classy people. It’s a great spot with a swanky appeal. Cozy booths and a friendly, beautiful staff that fits the Restraunt’s image. Our waiter, who not only resembled Antonio Banderas but also had the charm and manners as well was beyond our expectations. Filet Mignon was perfect and so was their Old Fashion. Looking forward to our next date night dinner.

One of the classiest establishments that Los Feliz had to offer. The live jazz in the lounge is extraordinary and the cocktails are perfect. I treated myself to dinner alone one night and it didn’t not disappoint. The salmon was delicious and so was the wine. The ambiance is very fancy and you’ll just feel the old Hollywood glamour seep into every aspect of the experience! 10/10 recommend!

I came here for a drink & to check out live music on a Thursday evening. A total vibe. I would definitely come back.
