Ysabel is a lively cocktail bar with a mixology focus that serves out of a back and front bar, plus an outdoor patio. It’s a little hard to find the restaurant at first because there is no giant sign with the name on it. It is a plain white building. Valet parking is $7.
We had reservations at 8PM (I recommend making a reservation, we went on a Thursday night and it was really packed.) The venue itself is dark, and dimly lit with string lights and candles. The ambiance is romantic. It is a great place for dates with a significant other or your group of friends. It is a little loud but what kind of cocktail bar isn’t?! We had a set menu that came out for my friends and I for we were invited specially by the restaurant.
The servers, general managers, chefs greeted us and also took such great care of us. They asked if we were allergic to any ingredients and kindly did not bring any dishes that contained them. After every course, they took away our dirty plates and replaced them with clean ones.

Overall my favorites were the Avocado Salad (tangy), Bone Marrow (rich and creamy), and the Scallops (fresh and crisp). I felt that they had the most interesting flavors to them. Our dining experience over all was great. What I loved about this restaurant the most was the environment and the people that surrounded us. The food was up to par. Thank you so much Ysabel Hollywood for having us!
Thank You to Ysabel’s Pastry Chef for the invitation and making this amazing food experience happen! We had a blast!
