The Den on Sunset is a Strip institution, an iconic bar in the heart of West Hollywood, CA. After undergoing a massive renovation in late 2022, the Den has reopened with dinner, full bar, and late night. Nestled in the heart of Los Angeles’ most famed street, The Den on Sunset has reemerged with a stunning new space, menu, and cocktail program that will keep imbibers on the dance floor, or hidden away in a dark booth, throughout the night. The Den on Sunset’s menu has been designed to appeal to everyone from the post-work crowd craving drinks & sharable snacks to guests popping in for a lively dinner of substantive entrees. The beverage menu includes draft cocktails that stun with California native ingredients and nuanced flavors. The Den is widely known as a destination for both locals and visitors of the Sunset Strip, and this overhaul serves to preserve the brand’s legacy. Executive chef Ronnie De Leon

The manager and waiter were very helpful in walking us through the menu since it was our first time. Food and drinks were decent. We were just not expecting for the staff to rush us through our meal so they could turn the indoor dining area into a dance floor. A man literally came over and told us our plates and glassware needed to be returned to the kitchen so they could start the dance club portion of the evening. When I asked for one last refill of water with the check I was told to go ask the bartender for it. I wonder if they can find a better way to warn diners about this in advance.

The food was delicious, the patio dining area is perfect for brunch and enjoying a warm but not hot day. My one complaint is the service felt lacking. Our server disappeared for a majority of our meal so if we wanted water or a refill on our drinks we went straight to the bar to get it. I know that sounds like a Karen but if I wanted to go to the bar for service I would've sat there. I'll give it another chance. Hopefully this was just a one off.

It was an interesting experience. I don’t feel like they were well prepared for a brunch event like Mother’s Day. For instance, when asked what kind of drinks we wanted, I ask for coffee, and they “didn’t know if they had any.” Like, what?

Nice spot. Food was great. Only two complaints: they forgot one of our orders and we had the one table that wasn't covered. To be fair, we had the largest party there (8), but it was weird that literally the rest of the restaurant had cover. Those issues aside, it was still a good experience overall.

I have been going to The Den for years! It's hands down my favorite bar in LA. Since the renovations, I have to admit I love this place so much more! I love the new design down to every detail – it’s just stunning! My friends and I came here last night to celebrate my boyfriend's promotion. I have to give a huge shoutout to Dallas & Ruben who made this surprise celebration possible. They went above and beyond to help with the surprise and were so attentive to our needs throughout the night. Thank you for making this day so special and truly unforgettable. I highly recommend checking it out if you are in the area 😊

Nice friendly staff. Messed up wine order, no problem they corrected it. Only took our appetizer order and did not come back for main courses so we went and had dinner nearby. Very limited menu selection. Overall very average and would not come back. Assume the great location and people who only want to have some drinks.

It was my friends birthday. When I walked in I made sure to remind the host and the waiters that we are here for a birthday and to bring a dessert. After our food arrived the waitress never checked back in to see how everything is going and we want more drinks (they also forgot to our mezze, we had to flag her down to remind her). She showed up an hour later and brought us our check (which we never asked for) and the card machine asking us to pay. We asked if they are closing (it was around 9:45p), she stated that they are closing but “bartenders are staying”. I asked her if we can have dessert please since we are celebrating a birthday and she said they are all out of dessert (she also didn’t seem to be apologetic, nor it seemed like she cared). Overall very poor experience, will not go back again.

Our server was unbelievably sweet and attentive. Only reason I gave the stars. The food was extremely average and the fries I ordered were unbearably salty. BUT since they were so darn salty, our server offered to get me a drink, on the house. The bathrooms. I really don’t understand what the point of all gender signs are if you’re just going to put a bouncer outside the bathroom, have him mis-gender you, and then try and point you where you “belong”. Very awkward. Most people, me included, visit WEHO to avoid this awkward encounter. The music. Music was strange, it seemed there was no real DJ, just co workers walking up and plugging in their phones and hitting shuffle. Some of the tracks were oddly emotional or depressing and ultimately the reason we didn’t stick around any longer.

It took us a long time to get checked in because no one was at the greet stand, and once we finally got seated it took almost 30 minutes to be greeted by a server. We didn’t receive food we ordered after waiting for an hour and reminding the server multiple times. By the time she checked on our food, they ran out of what we ordered. We also didn’t get the drinks we ordered and had to order them ourselves at the bar. We were missing silverware and water glasses. When we got the check, it was incorrect. The whole night felt very mismanaged and disorganized.

We sincerely apologize - we were not prepared for the amount of guests for the Superbowl and feel terrible that this happened. This service does not reflect the Den experience we want to provide whatsoever. We would love for you to come back another time for a much better night!

Came here for Super Bowl Sunday and left before the first quarter. Waited 10 minutes at the host stand. Finally got seated at a high top bar table. A few minutes later, a different host came and told us that we couldn’t sit there because she had seated someone else there but the hostess who seated us didn’t know. It was rude. We moved to the empty table next to us that the host very easily could have seated the other guests at. There was no food server in the bar area with the exception of the bartender behind the bar. They appeared to be extremely under staffed on what they could have predicted to be a busy day! My $18 cocktail tasted premixed, and wasn’t worth half that! The ‘handmade’ pretzels and Wagyu sausages were literally frozen food service items you can get at Pavilions and microwave at home, but of course, also extremely over priced for what it was. Left early. Would not recommend. Would not come back.
The Den On SunsetResponded on February 15, 2023
We are so sorry to hear this - we were definitely unprepared for the volume of guests and you should not have been neglected at all. We apologize and want you to know this is absolutely below the standard of service the Den typically provides - we would love for you to come back and have an excellent experience with us!

The service is so great here! Everyone who stopped by the table was helpful and very quick. The cocktails were delicious, and the atmosphere nice and moody. The only reason for not 5 stars is, while the food was all good, it didn't stand out. For instance, the burger, cooked fantastic! But no unique toppings. Or the deviled eggs, they were good, but there was no pop of flavor or something stand outish to them. Overall would definitely visit again, but with those food skills already in place, some extra, new flavors would be fantastic!

Overall experience was not great. I made a reservation for an outdoor table and this reservation was not honored and I had to sit indoors, and shifted the ambiance quite a bit.
The Den On SunsetResponded on February 15, 2023
Hello - sorry to hear about this. We try our best to honor dining area requests, but reservations are seated as they arrive so the patio can become full very early on in the evening. Please feel free to call or email and we will be absolutely sure to seat you outdoors next time! Especially on a weekend as it fills up quickly so we definitely want you to get the patio experience :)
