Le Grand Restaurant - Los Angeles, California

The perfect place to eat for indecisive diners (like me). Le Grand has tapas style dining in a contemporary, comfortable downtown location and offers one of the best values in the area. We enjoyed the $50 unlimited tapas option (and $30 unlimited drinks). We had 2 hours to try a dozen small plates and they really kept them coming with fast, attentive service.

Lucky for me, there were plenty of vegetarian options, some were hits and some were misses for me, but not because of recipe execution, I just had the opportunity to try some things I might not have were it not for the unlimited option.

The hummus, cauliflower steak, and watermelon salad were among my favorites. The veggie bombs were a little much for me, I could have done with just one, or smaller balls. And although not included in the fixed pricing, the deserts were a great way to finish our meal.

This place was a nice surprise for brunch. They have a great pricing plan with a big diversity of foods. I was honestly expecting low quality on food and drinks cause there is no way they are making money on this. But it was honestly much better than expected. I say the drink package is totally worth it alone as there were high quality cocktails made very well and made sure you had a great time. Service was staff was impeccable. My only gripe was the AC does not really spread across the entire venue (it was a really hot day out) but once we got those cocktails going that helped us cool down a bit on our patio seats. Thanks for a good time Le Grand!

2024 Eats, LA #4: came here Friday just minutes before happy hour ended. They quickly seated us, but it took quite a while for a waiter to come to our table. I assumed they were intentionally trying to wait for the happy hour hour to end.

When our server finally came, they told us they'd be able to honor the happy hour 5x$25 deal. As a party of four, we ordered 10 items: poke x2, coconut curry mussels, salmon, garlic mushrooms chicken parm, ribs, brisket, Adjarian khachapuri, and veggie puri.

Drink-wise we ordered two bottles of cab sauv $39/ea and four beers $7/ea.

While the food didn't blow us away, it was pretty good (especially when considering the price). The standout for me was the khachapuri--would definitely order again. The rest was mostly average to above average. The cab was from Mendocino and quite good. The beers they offer on tap are all solid, and again the price of the drinks is great for dtla. I couldn't find a cocktail on their menu that interested me, but their beer and wine more than sufficed.

Our various waiters were all very nice and friendly, but it was quite chaotic and it often took a few asks to get things. They all made up for that, though, by being friendly and personable, so it wasn't an issue at all.

Vibe-wise, it was kind of odd as they were taking photos for social media which was distracting. The restaurants had a wide array of folks from young people enjoying happy hour, to families, to people celebrating birthdays.

While I'm not rushing to come back, I think Le Grand's new menu/happy hour offers value, and I would come back.

Ambiance: we went on a not so sunny day, but inside was bustling with energy. There were tons of people all over the place but didn't seem like a circus. We ended up seated on the outskirts of the restaurant, so it was a good balance of noise.

Service: we had a great server, never had to search for them or wait long for anything. Super friendly and helpful, no complaints at all.

Food: a little apprehensive about all you can eat places but this place was really good, I didn't like everything which I expected but most of the items I chose were delicious and hot. Cocktails were delicious and actually had liquor in them. Would definitely come again.

Parking downtown is notoriously annoying, but the garage next to this place was a flat rate of $7 on a Sunday.

We had big hopes for this spot. Always seemed busy. Great ambience & centrally located. Had brunch on a Sunday afternoon, staff were super friendly. It’s an unlimited menu reasonably priced, portions are mini sized so you have an opportunity to sample a number of items from the menu. Which we did & needless to say it was nothing special, food was barely luke warm seemed like it was sitting around. It was busy but not overly so not sure why the food was not hot definitely wasnt freshly made per order if you know what I mean.
Best thing on the menu was the avocado toast & corn on the cob

My experience at Le Grand exceeded my generalized expectations, especially offering ‘all you can eat/drink’ options.
From great service, especially server, Miriam whom went OVER & BEYOND to help us find a missing tiny electronic that fell between the crevices of the seating and her knowledge of the menu.
Drinks were good and consistent. The ambiance was very chic and modern but welcoming. I’d be glad to return.
Only negative, if arrived early, they’ll don’t open main doors till exactly opening hours.

I’m a little late to my review but I celebrated a birthday with a large group here for the brunch. It was absolutely amazing the food was pretty good and the drinks were great. They are very accommodating and helpful. I would definitely recommend trying it out. The service was also fantastic. Our server Ozzy went above and beyond to make sure everything was great!! Me and the group I was with all agreed it’s a place we’d return to for the great deals and service!
