Republique

One of the best risotto in LA..

Server Anthony was outstanding. Knew the menu inside and out. Attentive without being obtrusive.
Food was on point. Brussel Sprout bacon app is a must. Huge wine list for every budget. Somm. sold us a red burgundy that didn't break the bank, but paired with the short ribs really well. Manager Melissa also came by and made us feel special. Will be coming back.

The staff is beautiful and amazing, which makes the whole experience so much better. The food is so good, and creative. The care and attention that they pay to their guests is reflected in the food. Fresh ingredients, used to absolute perfection. If you like bourbon, you can’t go wrong with any of their cocktails, utilizing seasonal fruit juices. They have amazing wine as well. Republique is a must try restaurant.

As always, it was amazing. Great food and super friendly and professional service. Thanks!

The restaurant has cool outdoor look. Love the decor and atmosphere. Large waiting area. The service was great, our waiter left in the mid of service and had another waiter take over and it seamless. The food was excellent, what was memorable was the potato leeks beignets, beef tartare, hearts of palm salad and the duck breast. The salad dressing was so delicious and the duck was cook perfectly.

Tres magnifique! The setting reminded me of walking in to the kitchens of a French chateau - complete with people shucking oysters and prepping other delectables. The menu is a series of small, medium and large plates - definitely plan on sharing! We ordered multiple small plates and shared a medium plate, leaving room for dessert and cheese. The highlight was an amazing dish that elevated the humble cauliflower to new heights - the cauliflower was roasted to a nice caramel, and paired with dates, peanuts and yogurt. I wanted to lick the bowl but decided that was a bit gauche. The baguette with Normandy butter was a taste of France, I had a Proustian response immediately upon the first bite.

I have yet to be disappointed with my experience at Republique for brunch or for dinner. Great lively vibe, attentive warm staff, and the food and cocktails creations are all so thoughtful made. Hands down my favorite LA eatery!

Food was delicious. Noise level upstairs was acceptable. Service was great.

The service was outstanding. Friendly and accommodating hostess, waiter, management. Everyone was exceptionally attentive and enthusiastic. Food was good but maybe a bit expensive for what it was.

this is a great restaurant! One of the best in LA, in my opinion. The food, service and wine list are amazing!

I love the food at Republique, but our 915pm reservation was 45 min late. That’s excessive, especially when it’s a $$ bill. In my opinion, completely unacceptable. The bar was two or three people deep. There’s nowhere to stand and wait and there were 20 people ahead of us. It was an absolute mess. The hosts and waiters, along with manager, were lovely, but still something isn’t being done right if that’s the case. Very frustrating.

The food and wine were amazing. We started with burrata toast and ahi toast - both excellent. Then fois gras appetizer with grilled pears. The standout dish was our octopus salad, I loved it and I

Felt like a corporate restaurant machine. Ratio of staff to customers was almost 1:1 which made for beehive feel. Server overly pretentious and condescending. Value of food to price off scale. Wine pours skimpy. Pasta over al denté. But cocktails crafty and delicious. Bread & butter delicious. Sole and black cod very good.

Food was amazing. A bit pricey, I had a salad, scallops that were cut into small pieces it look like 2 scallops. A short rip, Rose Mary chicken and a piece of chocolate cake. No drinks, a $160 plus for 2 people. Over all i would go back again.

My expectations were high; Republique is on so many "it" lists. The service was impeccable from the start; our server was able to recommend an excellent wine based on our description of what we liked, and when the 6-piece appetizer we chose sounded too heavy/much for the meal we were about to eat, he proactively brought out a small sample size of the appetizer, just for us to taste.

Off to a lovely start... then, the food arrived. The Little Gem salad came w/ a green sauce that was delicious, particularly with the avocado, but the salad was packed so tight inside a tall bowl, that a mess was inevitably made as soon as it was served; just getting stuff out of the bowl required some gymnastics. After that, we shared the roasted chicken, which was 1/2 of a very slightly undercooked and entirely tasteless chicken (literally no flavor), and soggy, wet skin. I was shocked they thought to let it out of the kitchen that way. That came w/ a side dish of sliced potatoes with onions that had been carmelized to sogginess as well, and to a point where the "sweet" completely overtook the earthy element that gives onion its culinary currency. A side dish of Brussels sprouts was good - nice chunks of perfectly-cooked bacon always get an A+ from me -- but not exceptional; I cook 'em better at home, myself.

Atmosphere was lovely, service was outstanding, menu is well-balanced and creative, yet somehow, the food -- the very thing we came for -- fell flat. Too expensive and precious to recommend, I'm sad to say.

High quality! Will not disappoint! Very fine quality food, atmosphere and service. Creative, fresh blend of old world and new.

All the food was delicious. The Normandy butter was really good and the bread also. The service was excellent. ,Reservations are highly recommended. The beignets are delish.

Great food. Great service. They messed up our dessert but were very apologetic. A great time all around.

Fantastic restaurant with creative dishes. Excellent for sharing a variety of plates. We has the outstanding spot prawns with cannelini beans. Superb cavatelli and agnolotti and their always amazing chicken. The brussel sprouts with bacon included broccolini and is delicious. We always enjoy the salted caramel cake and apple pancake style cake. Noisy but superb.

Had my birthday dinner here and I'm so happy I did. It's hands down my favorite restaurant in LA. The food, service, and atmosphere is indescribable. Thanks Republique!

My second time here and no disapoinment. Every single plate is so delicious, no comparisson. The caramel chocalate cake is so good, the short rib, the bucatini and the scallops are all a gem

That has got to be one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Thank you!

Great food and service. All aspects of the restaurant working perfectly. Very knowledgeable wait staff. Excellent wine list.. loved the pasta ragu and butter cake for dessert. Fantastic birthday dinner with my wife..

Great environment and solid menu... reliable

Excellent, on of LA’s top restaurants. Serious about wine and food. Fresh oysters. Great wines by the glass and great wine list.

The food was delicious and the service was awesome! They also accommodated my request for a regular table, instead of the other ones. Thank you for a great experience. You guys def made my husband’s bday special!

They wouldn't seat me in till the only other person of my reservation was there... There were plenty of tables open, but they made me wait in the entry area / hectic bar situation. Super awkward, people / waiters bumping in to me constantly, and the hosts were annoying / rude LA wannabee actors who just should have sat me. I don't care if that's your policy, it's a stupid one since you get a bill at the end regardless. Most LA establishments have done away with this.. It's not a law, so to me it's not an excuse to make you awkwardly stand around waiting for a so so aging restaurant.

Everything was amazing! Ariel our server was the best!!

Wonderful!

I love this place . Food is always perfect , but a bit expensive. Wine card is amazing .

Service was at best mediocre but food was amazing.

I highly recommend the Kanpachi Crudo, Heirloom tomato salad, and Pork Loin—they were wonderful.

The space is beautiful as well, just a bit tight quarters and a little noisy.

It was also expensive, but it was a special occasion and the quality of the food was very good.

Didn’t get seated until 45 minutes after our reservation and was not given a heads up there would be any delay, let alone a significant one. Had to follow up multiple times. Was finally given a bad table. Waited for the server to greet us for 10 minutes and asked for a wine list. We waited 15 more minutes to order a bottle of wine and no one came, so we left. Unapologetically bad service and will never be returning.

Outstanding

We requested a stand alone table and Jared made sure we had one. It made for a wonderful evening. We so appreciate him working it out for us and the food was fantastic! Thank you.

All the dishes we ordered were delicious. Fresh and the mix of spices and ingredients balanced every dish. Service was excellent.

Food Delicious! Crowded... but fun. High energy environment. Wine list expensive and complicated. Great service. Great management.
Great night.

Definitely go with a group of friends. There are too many delicious dishes to pass up. The more people, the more options everyone can share.

This is not my first time at Republique and if/when I'm back in LA again, I'll be headed back. Fantastic food in a vibrant atmosphere .

Food was a little overpriced but still so great. Service was awesome as usual. The only thing is it gets too noisy during dinner....
