Electric Owl is a Gastrobar, a new style Restaurant, and a Cocktail Bar hybrid. Known for its amazingly tasty cocktails and famously delicious Cheeseburgers and Fried Chicken Sandwiches, Electric Owl has made many, many top lists! Situated on a triangular plot of land that used to be an old train station, the 1920’s decor pays homage to its Old Hollywood and Pacific Electric Car roots (‘Electric Owl’ was actually a nickname given to the nighttime train conductors from the early 1900’s). Located on Sunset Boulevard, in the heart of Rock ‘n Roll Hollywood, Electric Owl is the brainchild of Chef and Restauranteur, Ernesto Uchimura.
Open now for takeout and dine-in service, with 2 heated patios and dog-friendly sidewalk dining. Now open for Happy Hour, Dinner, and Weekend Brunch!

It surprised me that a mocktail cost the same as the beverage with alcohol. Also towards the end our server was not present at all but another server helped us. We appreciated the complimentary birthday treat, and the outdoor seating.

Great happy hour experience - ambiance on outdoor patio was beautiful and relaxing, loved the photos of the old streetcars on the restroom. The wagyu burger and the chicken sandwich were both very filling and absolutely delicious. I also loved all of the cocktails that we tried. Great experience and I would love to go back!

Ordered 2 Appetizers, and when they were set down on the table we started laughing. We thought it was a joke. Presentation was horrible and made no sense. The hamburger was really good though, but it was served on the worlds tiniest plate. It felt like the kitchen had run out of dishes or we fell through the looking glass. It was all just very odd. The restaurants really cute on the inside, patio furniture on the outside is very uncomfortable

I had the most delicious biscuit— the cheddar tot biscuit with truffle butter. I’m not exaggerating it was one of the best biscuits I’ve ever had. The truffle butter was so creamy and delicious. The only thing that was slightly negative was that it was super hot out with not very much shade out on the sidewalk, even though there are umbrellas… but that’s not something easily fixable when sitting outside at noon in at the end of July in LA. 😉 Other than dealing with the heat, I loved my brunch!

Cocktails, mocktails, and food-- all delicious! Wish the kitchen stayed open later on weekday nights, but it's understandable. The service was overall great! We were seated on the garden patio which was nice, a bit more chill than the triangle patio, it seems. Inside dining looked nice too. The hibiscus margarita and the shishito peppers were particularly scrumptious. Parking is a bit rough.

Love the ambiance of Electric Owl. Formerly a fire station, the venue still retains some of the old architectural details while creating an intimate atmosphere. This was my first time back in a few years and since that time, the addition of a dining area with booths and a vine covered back patio with a fireplace only add to the ambiance. Drinks were good, but portion sizes for apps were small, so if you're looking for a light bite, maybe order two.
