What People Are Saying About 23Hoyt

This modern tavern’s soaring ficus trees, woodsy antler chandeliers and salon-style wall hangings create an upscale casual ambience befitting its chic clientele. Hip studio dwellers and clusters of well-heeled twenty-somethings snack on bar bites of deviled eggs, fried green beans and onion rings served with a caper and red onion aioli in the posh bar. In the secluded second-floor mezzanine, Northwest neighbors from moneyed West Hills residents to young, twitterpated couples enjoy American classics like iceberg wedge salads, steak and fries and five-layer chocolate cake.
Good Food Fun Time

Liked this place a lot. Good menu and nice waiters. Upscale feel but down to earth everything else.
- Pros: You can get a pitcher of beer!
Sunday Dinner
by MikeyMilf at Citysearch
I love comfort food and the menu was full of my favorites. I settled on the fish and chips which were perfectly cooked and the fries were better than McDonalds! I know, not much of a reference but they really were that satisfying. So many restaurants try to do their own fries and so often you get a limp and greasy mess you have to pick through for some good bites. You have to try the fries. Salty and good! The room was nice and warm as was our waiter. Just a nice solid place. Almost forgot, you can get a huge mug of beer. I couldn't believe the size of it when it came to the table.
- Pros: food
We had a wonderful night..
by ssullen at Citysearch
We sat upstairs with our children who are both toddlers. We were at a perfect table away from other patrons so that the children could be free to express themselves (be loud) without bothering others. We could look down on the restaurant from our table. It was busy and fun to watch people. I had the wedge salad with blue cheese dressing which was delicious and the roasted chicken which was also superb. The kids had pasta. The kitchen made them something specifically to their liking. It was a good night with the family and we had no complaints except for parking. We had to park a block away and walk. It wasn't pouring rain so that was fine. We'll be back in any case.
- Pros: Wedge Salad
- Cons: Parking
