    At breakfast I had the best congee I ever had in the United States at San Laurel. The ingredients were spectacular. Home made dried pork hash was made from jamon iberico and their XO sauce was also homemade by the chef. I shall order congee for breakfast every time I stay at Conrad Downtown LA.

    The highlights were the cocktails, and I loved that they had an NA cocktail option for our group. The outdoor patio is right on Hollywood boulevard, but you feel like you are in a private oasis tucked away and surrounded by plants! Would definitely dine again and cannot wait to try their new THERE THERE concept, opening soon.

    My husband and I have been going to Eden for date night about 10 years now and I will say that every single time it has been a wonderful experience! My favorite is the Black Label burger, and it is consistently delicious. I love that the recipe hasn’t changed and it still tastes as it did when I just had it. Staff is friendly and professional. Bartenders make yummy drinks. It’s just a place of great food, music and ambiance. I just love it here! My faves : Black Label Burger Tuna Tartar Truffle fries Shishito peppers
