   The service and ambiance was wonderful for a date night, and it wasn’t too noisy and crowded for a Valentine’s Day evening. There was wonderful music and we could still have a good conversation.

   Came for DineLA. Cute location. Food was fine. Service was friendly, but very slow considering it's a small place and was barely half full on a Thursday. Except when they finally brought dessert, and then the bill came a minute later. It felt like a cute bar that was trying to be a restaurant.

   Dropped in for dinner with some "foodie" friends from out of state. They loved everything about this place. We've been coming here since they opened and they never disappoint. We ordered about 8 different menu items - (some to share), and we each got a crafted cocktail. Service was great, as always.

   The place was so loud and on top of it the table next to us of 3 older men was so loud we left and went next door to the Corner-something. Sat outside but it was quieter and the food was really good too. Detour was a super fail!

   I wanted to love this place, but our order came out wrong and our food was only so-so. (Brussel Sprouts, Shrimp Tacos and Yam & Brie flatbread)

   Everything was great but the French toast was not inventive or exciting. I tend to look for something more than i can get at home. Other than that, everything was inspiring and creative. Loved the Prosecco grapefruit mimosas!

   The banana bread was the bomb, but the rest of the food was just OK. We had the mussels (eh), the bistro burger (eh to good), and the grilled cheese (liked this the least). The service was great, the ambience was chill, so I was hoping to like this spot, but the food just isn’t worth the price IMO.

    never disappoints. not too fancy, vibe is very friendly. never feel rushed. service is always really good. food very good. drinks very good. i like a restaurant that doesn't have attitude, and I've NEVER got that vibe from detour...
