Beautiful view
This place had changed hands in ownership about three years ago. Last time we went there was a couple of weeks ago. I had a hamburger, which although pricey, but was very delicious! I ate it til the last crumb.
There’s a killer view and of course this is the reason to come to this place to begin with. But it doesn’t meant they can’t make some yummy dishes.
Dishes I tried:
hamburger
Just right and delicious.

Interesing eatery
I was delighted to find this restaurant with Spanish dishes. They have a great selection of cheeses (mind you, my middle name is "cheese"). Anyways, we ate all sorts of tapas, every one of them tasty and just right. It was a good experience, although a rather expensive place. They also have a great selection of wines. A way to go!!!!

Can’t remember what they were, but everything was great. I need to keep a better eye on restaurants and the food next time I will write a review.

Lunch
I’ve been here now for the second time in maybe 15 years. The first time I remember them serving wine in a champagne glass, and that was kind of a turn off for me.
Now I was really hungry and decided to stop by again when in the neighborhood. I filled up quickly on the tasty apetizer: warm pita bread, hummus and pickles.
The hamburger was a mistake to order.
Dishes I tried:
hamburger
Hamburger patty was very dry. I think it had pieces of paper napkin (!?) in it.

Good deli food
It is a big restaurant with many tables. Locals come here for the good food! I mostly eat hamburgers when I go there for lunch. But everything is good.
But why I write this review here? Because of the poppy seed strudel. It is so delicious.

The price depends on the size of course. I think $4.95/Lb. The absolute best! I give it 10 stars. But the website designers didn’t have enough fantasy to allow proper rating for me.

Nice place
I started going to CPK when they opened up in the eighties. I ordered goat cheese pizza and a glass of wine. Since ever I’m ordering the same dish, always.
I like the atmosphere, the open kitchen where you can watch the cooks prepare the food.
Dishes I tried:
Goat cheese pizza
The first dish I’ve ever ordered here. And I always eat the same. It’s removed from the menu long ago but they still make it upon request. Go for it!

Oh so old Los Angeles...
I have to admit I haven’t been to this restaurant in ages. Let me think… it has to be a good ten years if not more by now. (Is it still in business?) I only rememember the place being rather old fashioned in appereance and decor; smelly from the inside (not in a good way). The only food I’ve ever eaten there was the steak bistro style with french fries. I think it is a good medium, as I still remember the food.
If I’m not mistaken the original owners were Basks, and left the place and area a long, long time ago.

German cuisine
I haven’t been in this restaurant for long, too. But I have fond memories of it. As with many restaurants, I have the tendency to order one particular dish over and over. Steak tartare isn’t available in many eateries, so I take advantage of it whenever I’m at Red Lion Tavern. I love this dish from back home (Hungary). Although it might turn a lot of people off… But I ask for lots of extra condiments which doesn’t normally served with it such as ketchup, Worchesteire, mustard. It’s so yummy, I must go there again soon!
Dishes I tried:
Steak tartare
Absolutely delicious! Goes well with beer.
