Lemon Grove

“Wonderful rooftop ambience. Enter into The Aster and the attendants will guide you to the Lemon Grove. We don’t like noisy environments. the Lemon Grove blends a bustling environment with a nice, calm outdoor space. I especially love the garden and rooftop view of Hollywood. Kumquat and lime trees surrounded the patio which was a nice touch. Highly recommend the chill rooftop ambience. The food was terrific. Great Caesar (filled with anchovies as it should be), runner beans, and bone marrow. The lamb rigatoni was to die for. The only gripe I’d have is the rigatoni was non-canonical with the pasta being a bit small like macaroni. The shiso pasta was also rich and good. Finally, the dessert was OK. I like cheesecake with crusts but at least they have a basque cheesecake (the worst type of cheesecake but cheesecake nevertheless). Would not recommend the peach cobbler. Overall, highly recommended for a chill, weekend dinner hangout in Hollywood.”

“Great rooftop brunch spot in Hollywood with a relaxed vibe and beautiful views of the Capitol Records Building. The setting feels upscale but still comfortable, perfect for a weekend outing. We enjoyed fresh oysters, a bright kale salad, rich eggs Benedict, and fluffy strawberry pancakes. Everything tasted well prepared and nicely presented. I’d definitely come back”

“What a beautiful restaurant! Came in for brunch to celebrate my birthday and had a lovely experience. Very beautiful decor and comfortable booth seating. Beautiful outdoor patios. Lemon trees are everywhere! Very spacious but still very cozy. And Jessica took care of us and did a fabulous job. Bethany was also very very helpful. She was all smiles. Lovely brunch menu. We started with the crispy brussels sprouts and they were delicious. I had a nice glass of wine then had the French rolled omelette and it was just delicious. The Boursin cheese really kicks it up a notch! Very creamy. I asked for my breakfast potatoes to be a little crispy and they were perfect. He ordered the Croque madame and it was a nice big portion and very tasty. Then I had to have a specialty drink to celebrate so ordered the slightly impeared and not only was it a beautiful presentation but very, very tasty. Beautiful views all around of the Hollywood Hills. Not too expensive, especially for the beauty of the restaurant as well as the views. Well worth it. We’ll definitely be back for happy hour!”

“Ever since Redbury has dissolved and the Aster social club has come to be, The Lemon Grove has been our new rooftop as Hollywood locals. I was on a date night here with my husband This has to be one of the best spaces to not only have Rooftop, but also organically sensitive cooking in one space. Im happy to celebrate this menu and apparently so does Selena Gomez as her show Selena+Chef was such great episode that it reminded me to go to Lemon Grove more. It also was cool to see her meet Chef Marcel Vigneron to learn molecular gastronomy and I would love to meet him one day. We only live 5 blocks away on Whitley. Dinner was amazing, and my husband and I had the best server is named Taylor and she’s been here 2.5 years. We loved her and how she curated our fantastic evening. We recommend the branzino, as well as the impeccable brussel sprouts. Thank you for what you do Lemon Grove, Im glad you have seating at your bar area now and happy to see yoru space with the one and only Jessica Simpson in All’s Fair. You are all doing something very right and this hard work makes me proud to be your Hollywood local neighbor! We love it!”

“The food, vibe and views was top notch. The customer service left something to be desired. We were greeted with an attitude and air of snootiness. Our waiter was slightly better but not up to par for the atmosphere.”
