- KKristenVIPLos Angeles •42 reviews5.0Dined todayAlways an excellent and delicious experience. Great service in a vintage and historical ambiance. We lucked out on my birthday and it was chicken pot pie night and it was yummy! Have them dish out for you! Sommelier was super helpful and pointed us in a great direction. Of course our martinis to start were perfection. And had a cup of onion soup to start. Loved my birthday card and brownie. They have been around for 105 years and the service and food are exactly why they will be around for 105 more!More infoMusso & Frank GrillPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Hollywood•4.8
