This place reminds me of The Godfather movie. It has a similar feel. Even the staff act like you are in an Italian-American environment. The food is amazing and you get a lot for what you pay.

an iconic place to go and enjoy dinner and some live entertainment. If you've never been your missing out

Hey this place is an old school LA institution. solid bar drinks. great service. Dana is one of the bartenders there and Bonnie is one of the servers and they are always really great.Be sure to check the schedule because they close early on the weeknights.

Delicious food and amazing place, very good service.

Intimate, dimmed lounge with fun bar bites - great for sharing! Cocktails were fantastic and service was good. Lovely place to soak in old Holywood vibes

Such a cool find. Searched for best martinis and found this place. Next time will do dinner with my martini. Very old school cool!

Here’s to you Marty and Elayne!The LA you built was the best version the city has ever had. It’s the character you played a major role in when I think of LA as my “home town”.

Lofty rambles create the sense of limited seating without completely disguising a commodious dining room, and dim lighting over stark contrasts creates an intimacy of islands. The decor is that of another era without using overstatement to awe the untrained eye.Calamari was par for the course, though the marinara was noteworthy.Cauliflower stuffed bell peppers were seared without damaging the crisp texture, as was the mozzarella browned but not burnt. The cauliflower served as a texture appropriate meat substitute, such that I did not feel as if I were eating food other than traditional Italian. Did I mention that the marinara is amazing?

Beautiful old school hollywood establishment. Food was great, service was good and reasonably priced for its charm. The Bar on the side was packed but looked awsome. Worth another trip.

My husband and I were in town for our anniversary. The Dresden was so beyond our expectations. The atmosphere was amazing, food was incredible, and the service was friendly and perfectly attentive. If we ever make it down to LA again from Montana, we’ll definitely be back!
