Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Universal City

My hostess was AMAZING. Such a sweetheart, thanks girly! and thank you to Josh for the warm welcome, making sure I was attended to, and heartfelt conversation as I am new to the city. Newly vegan as well and the SPICY PASTA + Plant Based Chicken is my all time favorite and exactly why I returned! Great solo date location. Thank you so much, I hope to be back.

Amazing everything Food, drinks, waitress I would clarify a bit more about parking (only confusing thing)

Shirley Brasserie was a wonderful dining experience that paired the great atmosphere of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel with great food. The Restaurant occupies a quiet part of the Lobby area and is large enough to find seating but intimate enough to feel separated from other diners. The menu is spartan but focused, as is the wine list. The appetizers we had were first-rate and handsomely presented. I would recommend the chicken liver mousse, as it was special and hadn't seen it elsewhere. I consider myself an expert on duck and generally prefer it roasted, as many restaurants don't really have the expertise to properly sear it. Not true here. The duck was properly spiced and glazed and seared just right. For this style of preparation, I've not had better. The Shirley Brasserie is not inexpensive, but considering the quality of the food and service (which was also outstanding), I would rate it as a good value. Something for a special occasion.

Food is great. Setting is wonderful. Service is very good. Prices are in line with what one expects for this type of food although $6 for a tea bag felt like a rip off. I do have one complaint. A patron at the table next to us was listening to something on his phone without earbuds and at full volume. He came in after we'd already been seated, so he could have easily chosen a location away from diners as the restaurant was only 20% occupied. I would appreciate if the restaurant would kindly request that patrons wear earbuds or sit away from other diners.

Going to miss this place! Great service and great food. If you can get there on their last day do it!
