Best Gastro Pubs in Silver Lake

First time for us at Proper, the photos and previous reviews had won us over. Highlights; service was very solid and atmosphere was as the photos led on, very nice. The food; caesar salad, deviled eggs to start - both okay, but lacking any "oh these are good" moments. Entrees - chicken paccata and salmon - too much butter and again, okay, but no, "oh my this is good" bites. The misc; music was in/out and not really heard from our seat making it eerily quiet at times when the music wasn't on. Overall a 3.5 experience.

I always have a good time when it comes to the State Social House. Our server (and her name slipped my mind) is always so kind. The Blackened Salmon & Pepperoni Pizza were delicious. You have to get the Espresso Martini on the menu. Well worth it. It was great to see Kid from Kid and Play there. We watched the bartender do some great tricks with fire and alcohol. Tons of fun. Diverse music. Various sports on the TV's. Great place to smoke and chill.

Great experience, nice ambiance , the staff were so nice and helpful, Great place for the birthday dinner for my girlfriend, everyone had a good time and were very comfortable.

Our server was awesome. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. And the food is always outstanding. Truffle fries, guacamole & pico platter and hummus plate are among my fav starters here. This is becoming one of my favorite places to dine in the Arts District.

The food was great, but the service was poor. It looked like they might have been short-handed and we might have understood if they had shared an explanation. We sat outside and at first received immediate attention from our server when ordering drinks, but then she disappeared for at least 30 minutes. We had to ask 3 times to be able to place our food orders. However, once our orders were placed we received them quickly. We ordered a variety of brunch and lunch items and all 5 members of our party were happy with their choices. I had the Ube Stuffed French Toast and it was a perfect combination of ube cream, brioche french toast and fruit with a sprinkle of pistachios for the perfect amount of crunch. I also had a delicious spicy cucumber cocktail. I asked our server for a recommendation and it was the perfect blend of cucumber and tequila. If the service hadn't been off, I would have given this a 5-star review.
