I went there first when I lost my way while coming back from hiking Griffith park which was apparently fate as I loved the place. It's got a chill and unofficial and friendly vibe that most LA places are lacking. It's also pet friendly if you're seated on the patio.My first visit there I only went for oysters and bubbles but then discovered a whole new world on the brunch menu. My personal favorites were campfire Benny and smoked brisket hash. They also got nice cocktails or cold pressed juice blends in case you had a big night before.
From the valet parking to the restaurant awesome place to be. Everyone is nice very clean, the waiter and waitress are very friendly and always willing to assist. And you can't beat dollar oysters on Tuesday! Very fresh! Highly recommended!�
Great place for all occasions. The patio is pretty nice and the valet parking is very convenient. The waiters are super friendly, and the food was pretty delicious. I recommend the Smalls and the mess burger 😋
Cool place and trendy environment for a drink or a meal. They have a wide variety of dishes that sounded intriguing so I will come back for sure; this time we tried the barbecue which was great. The cocktail list was especially extensive, and all of us really enjoyed our respective drinks. Great experience!

Amazing 🤩,my husband and I were going to another restaurant saw the parking valet and asked if we can park he said yes it’s $8.00 I asked if it’s only for Messhall Kicthen? He asked were we were going I mentioned Stamp Proper Foods. He said oh no enjoy this place better! We have it a try and we are glad we did! Amazing ambience, we got seated fast they have outside and inside seating. The food was delicious as well as the drinks. Give it a try and ask for any type of alcohol beverage they have a variety of choices.
Starting with parking, there’s plenty of street parking around and they have valet.
Our group had a variety of dishes and they were all very delicious. Tostadas felt so fresh and I would definitely go back to try more things there. For now, I’m giving 5 stars because our whole party was pleased.
The only reason would give it 4.5 because their ice cream to brownie ratio was so off. Hahaha.
The black bean and quinoa tostadas were delicious, got chips for everything that fell off. The fried okra were super crunchy and drinks well done.
The food was well above average! A really great stop, worth your time and energy if you're looking for any of the following:
The Mess Burger was really great! Bun was soft, meat cooked spot on! Condiments and toppings were on point.
The Blackened salmon burger was even better if it was possible.
The sweet potato fries were good but could use some seasoning help and probably better as a double fry.
The chicken wings were, chicken wings. :) Above average dipping sauce.
The banana pudding for dessert was well done and homemade, enjoyed the homemade wafer cookies like Nila's.
Other 2 areas I review but are not part of my overall review:
Atmosphere was nice with the outdoor fire pits and canopy
Service was outstanding and friendly!
Came with my daughter and mama, and let me tell you....they did not disappoint. Wonderful service, great tasting food! My Kom loved the half dozen oysters so much, we ordered a second round. Fantastic wine selection! Their Farro Risotto was delicious and their Spicy Quinoa hit the spot. Their salmon was made to perfection. My daughter loved the kids choices so yes, very kid friendly. Definitely coming back again

Visited here a few weeks ago and enjoyed the meal. Returned because I saw they had Pappy Van Winkle at the bar and treated myself for my birthday. The bartenders were friendly and knowledgeable. Of the four Pappys options, I chose the 10 and 12 year. They also have the 15 and 23. It didn’t not disappoint. And, I they also gave me the apply crumble which had a lovely whipped cream for my birthday, which paired nicely with the Pappys. I’ll certainly ably be back.
Went for brunch. The ambience and the staff are great. The crab cake hash and loz feliz Benny are great as well. The smothered biscuits with fried chicken was tasty and has a smoky taste. It was a little too spicy for my friend (pro tip: ask them to hold the hot sauce if you can’t handle the heat). The pancakes are beautiful but taste wise I would pass.
Came by the other night on a whim for some dinner before an evening out in LA and I was NOT disappointed!
After handing off my car to the valet ($8 BTW) we walked into the Messhall. The outside was very understated but inside had a summer camp cabin vibe and I am all here for it!
After being sat we met our amazing server Gabriel (apologies if I spelled that wrong) who walked us through the menu and the fun drink menu! We picked out some drinks and food at Gabriel’s recommendation and waited…
In a word…wow! The food and drinks came out quickly and were amazing!! The biscuits were flaky and delicious and then there was my FishFry on a massive plate. This is where you get your monies worth when it comes to the amount of food AND quality!
Long story short we were very impressed and will no doubt be back! Can’t wait to try more of their menu!!
