Abernethy's

Abernethy’s is a fantastic restaurant with delicious, well-crafted dishes and a welcoming atmosphere. The flavors are rich and satisfying, and the presentation is impressive. The staff is friendly, attentive, and professional, making the entire dining experience enjoyable. Highly recommend for a great meal and excellent service!

Good food but awful service. They did not have some of the food in their short menu. They brought the wrong water, and wrong main course. We almost missed the concert.

Good food and staff, but oof…the interior lighting is terrible! It’s far too bright and poorly placed, casting some very unflattering shadows on the tables and taking away from the entire dining experience. We’d love to return if the ambiance improves, but the 'interrogation room' lighting has got to go! 😩🤦🏻‍♀️

We ended up here after a rather frustrating Vday of parking hunting to eat at a Japanese restaurant (2 attempts). Well what began as a frustrating dining feat quickly turned into an ambient relaxed atmosphere albeit being seated at the bar (no resy) so we were fortunate enough to be seated immediately & did I mention the finger licking steak & the strong cocktails? We loved it & so will you— especially if you’re headed to Mark Taper show this is your Go TO chef centric gastro haven I’d say

Nice time.

A bit overrated. They seemed understaffed and I feel like the price for a pasta dish, basically 'peasant food,' because there was a specific guest chef, wasn't reflected in quality. I think I could have ordered something similar at any local Italian restaurant for less and would have been happier with the flavor. Ambience was nice. Otherwise I would be rating two stars for food and ssrvice.

My wife and I went to Abernethy’s for dinner before the opera, which was scheduled to start at 7:30 PM. We arrived at 5:50 and were seated by 6:00. Wanting to ensure we wouldn’t be late, we immediately ordered a couple of appetizers and two entrées. It took about 30 minutes for the appetizers to arrive. By 6:45, I asked the server whether our entrées would be delayed because we needed to leave for the show. She assured us they were working on it and that the food should be out soon. However, by 7:10, we still had no entrées. At that point, I asked to speak with the manager to cancel our order, as it was already too late. The staff was not apologetic and came across as rude. We also noticed that guests who were seated after us had already been served, yet no explanation was offered. We barely made it to the show, and no complimentary discount or gesture was provided. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience, and we will not be returning.

Dinner and a show stopper! What a lovely restaurant! We came back 5 days later for a 2nd visit and I loved it even more. All of the dishes were worthy. But, my favorite was the charred broccolini and pane. I would eat both as an entree! My husband wouldn't let me take a pic of the broccolini because he was too hungry...Men!

Some of the worst food I have ever eaten. I ordered the clams with linguini. Four little clam pieces. Instead of the usual white wine sauce this was heavy and the pasta was thick and horrible. Someone ordered the mashed potatoes. Inedible. The only good thing was the bread. Service was confusing.

They seated 30 humans and our 10 Service Dogs (SD) and Service Dogs-in-Training who were well behaved trained SD/SDiT with their handlers. The MobilityDog.Org community had a beautiful brunch that was preordered and was presented within 10 minutes of sitting down with the kindest staff. Kirk was fabulous who coordinated witht he Chef creating the most excellent experience for all of us. We highly recommended Abernethy's and look forward to our next meal with them. We traveled by metro-link and metro from Orange and Pasadena arriving at Union Station and then a quick trip on Metro for a short walk and roll to the Jerry Moss Plaza at the Mark Tapper Forum! Living all of life and love the barrier-free user friendly environment that Abernethy's presented us with. Life is sweet, thank you!

Service was terrible. Took forever to get our food and server was scarce. Ordered dessert and 20 minutes later it still hadn't arrived. Super disappointing since they were aware of showtime. Food was mediocre. Nice outdoor seating.

First time dining here, sat at the bar. Service was great, Jason and Will were very attentive and friendly and took great care of me. Tried the agnolotti (stuffed with short rib) and it was delicious. Everyone from the host to the manager were very nice. Food came out quick! 10/10!
