Fantastic in every way. It’s an experience to eat here.

Connor, was our server. He provided professional & thoughtful service to us, again. Jemma is an outstanding restaurant w/ excellent food. It allows us to conveniently park next door, & dine there, before attending the Pantages. And storing & refrigerating our leftovers, to be reclaimed after the theater, is sheer genius; along w/ pairing a couple of menu items w/ the current Pantages performance.

Shirley Brasserie was a wonderful dining experience that paired the great atmosphere of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel with great food. The Restaurant occupies a quiet part of the Lobby area and is large enough to find seating but intimate enough to feel separated from other diners. The menu is spartan but focused, as is the wine list. The appetizers we had were first-rate and handsomely presented. I would recommend the chicken liver mousse, as it was special and hadn't seen it elsewhere. I consider myself an expert on duck and generally prefer it roasted, as many restaurants don't really have the expertise to properly sear it. Not true here. The duck was properly spiced and glazed and seared just right. For this style of preparation, I've not had better. The Shirley Brasserie is not inexpensive, but considering the quality of the food and service (which was also outstanding), I would rate it as a good value. Something for a special occasion.
