Very inviting place to hang out. There is a place to play ping pong and lounge. Many tourists have visited here. Bathroom is nice and clean. You are not allowed to bring water inside and no flash photos. Good luck.
The Hammer Museum has a new restaurant opening in early 2019 called Audrey from restaurateur Soa Davies Forrest and chef Lisa Giffen. Taking over a section of the ground floor of the museum, plus the patio, the dinner and daytime destination is the most compelling eatery to come to Westwood in the past year. Lisa Giffen worked at numerous New York City restaurants, including Daniel, Blue Hill, and most recently at Brookyln’s celebrated Maison Premiere as its executive chef and sister restaurant Sauvage
Wow. This new spot is really perfect. Great ambiance and open and breezy and hipster. The brunch was spectacular. The best egg sandwhich I have ever had--avocados and chili butter on the perfect bagel. The grilled cheese sandwich with three types of cheese melted to perfection is over the top.
And the drinks are really creative and fun. I had the rise and shine with coffee and vermouth and bitters. A great mid morning jolt! The staff are also friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back and have dinner.
Fantastic modern restaurant with great service and excellent food. Moderately priced too, considering the quality. The pasta was so full of flavor, we couldn't believe it was vegetarian. The pork porterhouse was perfect, juicy and flavorful and expertly cooked. I liked it even more than the ribeye! Definitely come here for an upscale dinner at an accessible price in a gorgeous setting.
Ok. Let’s get this place off to a good start.
Great service and the herbal tea’s are very good. They will officially open next week on February 26, 2019. So come check them out while they get through their soft opening and enjoy a wide list of options.
I’ll be back with the family. Indoor and outdoor seating. Ambiance is open and contemporary. Lots of cushy seating.
Parking at the Hammer Museum, $7 for the evenings.
Audrey is just the right mix of comfort and modern. Situated in a beautiful setting, away from cars and traffic, you feel special to be in this little oasis of a place. I went with my friend for happy hour to beat some after work traffic and what a great idea it was. The service was friendly and attentive. We enjoyed drinks and two appetizer plates that were well-crafted and delicious. One was a fried artichoke and the other was a beautiful crudo fish dish. All cooking techniques were on point. Audrey has a New York or European feel in it's hyper-attention to details in the food and decor, as well as the sophisticated people it attracts. I will definitely be going back to eat and visit the free museum, which looks awesome. A great find in the middle of Westwood.
The Audrey is an absolute hidden gem. Lovely patio dining in the quiet courtyard of the Hammer Museum. The food is consistently excellent and inventive (the carta di musica)(and stop what you are doing and go try the “Corngee”) with an extremely thoughtful wine selection that always surprises. For a date or dinner with friends always a top choice. (I need to get over there for brunch !)
Say hello to your next food coma hotspot. Decadence and design had a child - come play. Divine inspiration could only explain the menu’s perfection, especially the crab chilaquiles and bread pudding french toast. Unfortunately only the wicked deserve the cinnamon-raisin sticky bun, so abstain from weekly confession.
And you spot that I'm glad is here now I love the selection of herbal tea, so if you're a fan of herbal drinks that's a perfect spot for tea parties did your GFS!
Great spot to hang out and enjoy cocktails and small plates after seeing provocative art. Love the indoor/outdoor space.
