Blair's

This is home, but better. If they had a lounge chair and ottoman, I'd never leave. The staff is friendly, kind and patient. The food is so delicious and fresh. Love! If you don't know wines, don't be afraid to ask for help. Check out the back patio for lovely alfresco dining.

Been wanting to go to the Silverlake location but didn't have a reso so we went here. Wasn't a fan of the layout. It's just kinda open. I feel like it has a cafe feel better than restaurant feel. Staff, though friendly, seemed like they were more interested in polishing glasses at the bar that was also the host stand. Could hear their conversation whole meal. Food took a really long time to come out.Nothing on the menu really popped out to me while reading. The pasta I chose, I think it was the gnocchetti with mushrooms, was super yummy! However I think there was anise in the seasonings on the breadcrumbs (I HATE ANISE) and my last bite had a large amount of it -___- BUT, still 5/5.I'd be down to keep trying more from here because my dish was so great! But definitely want to go to the other location at least once.

The rustic feel of the place and a few tables for intimate setting made an impression.And we were not casually dress for the occasion. The fault lies with us as we were looking for dinner within Eagle Rock area.However, it is a bit pricey considering it is the alternative for Tic Tac Toe Pizza whose order were a done deal since 6pm on a Saturday night! No more dough!The pasta is too salty for my taste. Bread with soggy toppings is not what I have in mind. My friend made a comment about his servings.Recommending the calamari for appetizer. Paid the bill with the lady in the counter making unnecessary side remarks.Kinda make you feel afterwards that we are not welcome or not their expected customer traffic.Subliminal messages understood and will try not to bother them no more.

Beautiful place and the food was incredible. Our waiter was super attentive and always made sure we were good. Will definitely be back!

Delicious food, charming ambiance (in particular the patio), and excellent service! Our waiter was attentive without being hovering, and he had such "sense" (knowing that we were sharing our plates, he brought extra silverware and plates, when we asked for a new wine glass because a fruit fly fell in, he replaced the glass with another wine!)We will be back to dine with other friends.

Not sure why my original review didn't show up in Yelp anymore, and it wasn't moved to the "not recommended reviews section" either. It just disappeared. (super sus, Blair's .)** original review continues below **Zero star.Made reservation for an outdoor patio seating at 8:00 p.m. Got there right at 8 p.m. Checked in with the guy who appeared new to the restaurant and a little clueless.After 10 minutes of waiting in front of their cash register area (can't really miss us, we were standing right there), I check again with another individual who appears to be more personable to make sure we were checked us in, and was confirmed that we were and will be seated shortly. Another 25 minutes went by with absolutely no updates at all, meanwhile, others without reservation were already seated, I told the clueless guy please forget about our reservation since they are too busy. The guy acted as he could care less.I understand that restaurants are short staffed and patience is often extended, however, it was incredibly rude to not even update your customer with a simple "we will be you shortly." After 40 minutes of standing in front of the cash register, we left. I took a picture of their front outdoor patio as we were waiting, it was empty.Never get to try anything and not interested in doing so anymore. Very disappointed on how they manage the restaurant.

We love Blair's!My wife and I have been to all the notable Italian restaurants in the area (Union, Marina, Bestia, etc) and Blair's competes with the best of them. The food is always phenomenal clearly made with the highest quality ingredients, the service is incredible yet comfortable, and a wonderful indoor decor. We love it so much we had our wedding reception here last year, and it couldn't have been more perfect. As a result, we've tried just about the whole menu and there isn't a dud on there. The whole menu is our favorite but some notable items we recommend are the funghi pasta, the Pomodoro, shrimp vodka, and bruschetta w/ burrata. Really can't speak highly enough about Blair's. You will not be let down.

Me and my friends came on a Saturday night and it we were seated right away. The server was fast and attentive but my friends didn't feel the friendliness. It was quite relaxing and chic ambiance. We only got pastas here and I got the Radiatore Guancale, which for some reason lacked flavor. Given the price of it, it was so not worth it. I wish I tried more dishes cause it seems like other reviewers liked other dishes. This particular pasta just was not par to other pasta dishes I've tried in other Italian restaurants so far. Parking might be challenging since they only have street parking. I might give this place another try again since other reviews look promising.

Ummmm.... Phenomenal. Found this place on Yelp looking for Italian food. Great location too, easy to find. Didn't really know what to order except for a few items that I saw via pictures however, Costanza suggested that the arugula salad and Bolognese pasta. Start to finish, excellent, excellent!!Her and Nick were both very kind, friendly and attentive. Definitely be coming back. Appreciate you guys !!

We made a reservation and I'm glad we did because it was full by the time we left. Service was amazing, great recommendations, and attentive staff. I will also mention every employee I saw was super attractive and seemed to be in a good mood so that says a lot about a place. Was the food expensive? Yeah. Was it worth it? Absolutely. The food was exceptional with high quality ingredients and recipes made with love.
