Guest Stories: Shirley Brasserie Raves

We chose this historic place to celebrate our anniversary and Shirley did not disappoint! Anastasia’s energy is everything! She hooked us up beautifully with a tour of the kitchen area and sat us in the best booth she calls ‘The Mogul Table’ We had the best server, Merideth, whose upbeat and genuine energy was fantastic. This was a well paced meal and worth ever penny. The Rioja was one point and the beef tartare who the very knowledgeable Victor delivered with intelligence and love for cuisine. Also, very important to note that this restaurant won an award - one of the top 25 dishes in LA - the one and only Beef bourguignon! This is a must for your evening and well curated Hollywood experience! Thank you for everything Anastasia - you made our anniversary incredible, Merci!

A phenomenal experience at Shirley Brasserie. We were there celebrating my mother's birthday and could not have been any better. We were greeted by Anastasia with an infectious energy and knew we were celebrating a birthday. She gave us a quick orientation of the restaurant highlighted by their open kitchen (I noticed her doing this with all guests). The cooking stations were impressive and every associate had a smile on their face. Meredith assisted us for our meal and gave us some suggestions including their Sunday supper fried chicken. We took her up on a few times and were not disappointed! The seafood tower was fresh and presentation was exceptional. The steak frite was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the spaghetti was generously portioned with seafood. The octopus was flavorful which is not the easiest to achieve and was cooked perfectly. Firm and not rubbery. The fried chicken was juicy and the accompanying potato salad and slaw was refreshing. Their Beverage director, Joey was there from the beginning touching tables and lending a hand. Lastly, we had the most decadent chocolate cake which satisfied my mom's sweet tooth. If you're visiting Hollywood area, make sure Shirley Brasserie is at the top of your list for a superb dining experience.
