I am a local so i don't think to go ""out on the town"" in my neighborhood very often. I had some friends in town so I wanted to show them a truely LA spot without all of the BS. I hadn't been to the Standard in a long time so I thought it would be fun. I wasn't planning on having dinner but my friends were hungry so we ate in the Restaurant. Now I am not sure why I haven't been eating here more often. The food was amazing! I had the steak frites. The fries aren't like regular fries. They're like a souffle potato! I have never tasted anything so yummy. The server was really attentive and made the experience fun. There was a huge line to get to the Roof so we hung out in the Lobby and had some drinks after dinner. There was a pretty awesome dj and the vibe was fun. When we finally got to the roof we had a pretty good buzz going. The view is just as beautiful as I remembered it. The only thing that has changed was the servers. I remembered them being snotty with tons of attitude. Not at all. Totally cool and fun. Everyone that works there seems to have a blast. We were supposed to do the site seeing thing but ended up staying for hours and having a great time. Definitely worth it!
Pros: great view food and service
Cons: cold on the Roof
