Burbank Bar & Grille

My friend and I went for fun & drinks last Friday night. We had absolutely one of the best times in a long time. In part because we had the most wonderful server. Her name is Katie. She not only was attentive to us but also had the kindest spirit and what a ray of sunshine!

Bad costumer service from out waiter (k). 3 tacos and a sandwich took more then 30 minutes to come out. One star overall compare to the others restaurants nearby.

Loved our waitress she was so funny and friendly not to mention attentive. The food was good. The quesadilla had a load of steak in there which usually other places are stingy with the meat. So that was a big plus. We went to watch the game and I honestly have no complaints. The food was good. Our table was close to the tv. Our waitress was amazing. The ambience was nice. I would recommend it

Live music fun place and great food. Fun place to hang with friends service is on key thanks guys

If you want a cool, chill, relax kinda vibe. Come around 7−10pm at patio area. This is the place for you. I also love going here on a saturday brunch on my day off. Cool staff, loved their food. My favorite is the calamari and pork ribs are the bomb.

Great location. The waitress was great and very attentive. We have a huge group on Friday night and she has been able to get everything right. There was 80s band performing and it was great too. Food was not bad and drinks certainly memorable and with good selection. Overall great experience. Will be back.

I had the pastrami special tonight on Rye bread with fries and a coke and it was great! They always serve great food here everytime I come.

Overall a cool spot to have dinner then listen to music with the option to dance or just hang out.
My husband and I came for a late dinner so got a nice table in front of the band/​Dj. The food was good, the drinks are ok (on the light side), staff was attentive and the music was good. Keep in mind I’m not a huge 80’s fan but the band was good so we did dance. We also watching people get down on the dance floor. Some people go cray cray for 80’s music :)
Would recommend this place for date night or hanging with friends. You can have dinner then burn off the calories by dancing. However for my personal preference it would be nice if they had more variation with the music as I think it’s mainly 80’s music most of the time.

This is one of my favorite live music venues in Burbank. Joe’s Great American Bar is another excellent venue but that’s another review. What makes BBG stand out? The Friday and Saturday bands (Video Star & Decades) that play 80’s hits with pure energy, accuracy and lots of personality. The vocalists sound better than how the original artists sound today. Seriously, it is hard not to sing along. The DJ music and sound are in general is high quality. Having worked with thousands of artists/​groups at top Hollywood venues, I am not easily impressed. I have taken my parents, friends and co-​workers to BBG, and they all give it a big thumbs up. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Appetizers, entrees and desserts are all good but not great, so ordering dinner is a smart option to get your party a nice table near the stage. Is it Friday yet?

One word. KARAOKE!!! Been here several times over the years, specifically for their great karaōke. Have always been with a large group and never walked away disappointed. You HAVE to do karaōke as a birthday party, please put it on your bucket list!
Service was great every time. Our last waitress was fantastic, should’ve gotten her name.
The KJ, Eric, is awesome! Can’t stress it enough. He has a great selection of songs, has a wonderful voice and will even be your backup if you need him. He is fair in his rotation. I’ve been to places where you wait forever and only get one song in. Here, I am always able to sing 2 – 3 songs.
Karaōke starts at 9, so pace yourself until happy hour at 10. I always order wine so I can’t speak on their cocktails. However no one in our group has complained.
Food is hit or miss. So I don’t order too much, which is why I’m only giving it 4 stars.
Nothing left to say but if you happen to be there on a Thursday night, just go ahead and let loose!

The food and service was great! I had nachos and couldn’t stop eating it. Their salmon, chicken and shrimp pasta was pretty good as well. Loved that they had 2 fire places outside. It was romantic!

Came in last night for a get together amongst friends & I had checked out reviews ahead of time to see what would be good to order. We decided to try the rocking ribs which were just mediocre & nothing special, the Mac&cheese wasn’t very good. I felt I could make better from a box! The chicken tenders were good but I guess you can’t go to wrong with that, the carne asada pizza was actually pretty good and I’d say the best from the list. So good wise I’d give it maybe a 2 stars BUT the live band and the ambiance was very cool which bumps it up to a 3 stars… They have TV’s so you can watch different sports events, it has a casual feel and the music was great. I’d recommend it for a place to go hang out with friends but make sure you eat before going.

When Buffalo Wild Wings, Barney’s Beanery, and Fantasia’s turn you away from max capacity due to Kobe’s 20 and an about to be record breaking Golden State Warriors game… count on Burbank Bar and Grille to save the day. This place is an absolute gem. I’m surprised I call myself a Burbankian without even visiting this place. Well lit atmosphere caters comfort in the space, food, and in enjoying a crowd of not so noisy people. Leisure and relaxation accompany a regular Wednesday night topped with enough space to start a party. This one is a hidden treasure for all locals.
My sister and I were warmly welcomed to sit either indoor or outdoor. My first impression was «wow, this place is real clean and cozy!» Initially, we sat outside. It’s spacious, comfortable, and group/​family friendly. Then, we changed our mind to go inside due to construction work. Since, we were here for the basketball games, we were pleased with the amount of TVs from ALL angles.
Considering it was a busy night, I’m glad that our servers were attentive and quick. As for food, I was expecting the flat bread to be thinner. Not bad. not bad. Their carne asada flat bread gots more flavor than their BBQ chicken unless you like caramelized onions. That could be the game changer. Jalapeños is a must on both. Their menu also offers other staples such as wings and more wings and onion rangssss. Haha, I wish I paid attention to what else was on there. but it was game night and that’s all I saw served along with beers and cocktails!
Lastly, what else caught my interest was the stage and musical canvas décor. It makes me wanna come back and listen to some live tunes from their booths.

Came here for a hosted paintnite event and tried some of the food and drinks here. I personally loved the shrimp tacos (3) and ordered a couple of wine glasses to go with my dish. The restaurant is situated on the top level, which has a very nice bar inside. I wouldn’t mind coming here for a quick lunch and drink with some friends. The service was also very catering and nice.

Came here last night with a bunch of friends from work for a birthday/​farewell party. We had a large party of 21 people so we made reservations ahead of time. They set us up with the best table right in front of the stage/​dance floor. Our waitress was very nice and patient with all of our orders. She was a bit slow in bringing out the drinks. Which I guess was a good thing because we would have gotten pretty hammered otherwise. The 80’s cover band took a little long getting ready. Wish they had started sooner but they got up and started jamming promptly at 10 pm and were pretty dang good. Everyone had a blast. If you’re lucky enough to get there early you can catch happy hour prices and turn-​up for half the cost. LoL! Only con is parking. They have no parking lot or valet of their own. Everyone that’s familiar with Burbank knows how crazy parking is in that area on a weekend. So if you do venture this way make sure to plan ahead and come early to scout out good parking.

OK… nothing to write home about. The waitress was nice. And it was entertaining to watch her and a fellow workmate flirt with the same dude. Beers were fine. The food was a’ight; could have been good but was just prepared weirdly. I mean, really… boiling brussels sprouts?! The Mac and cheese looked like it came out of s box even though they had a proper sauce in it (and kinda tasted really plain). But it was all otay… Just unfortunate because it could be good with just a change in how they made it all. Oh — get their spicy bloody mary, though. That is dee-​loschuss!

Ehhhh… I agree with Melissa… It’s ok.
Food was good. Mac n cheese and flat bread pizza. No complaints.
It was so loud that conversation was just about impossible. We were there for an hour before we actually got served. Waitress was sweet but scarce. Second glass of wine? 10 minutes later… Maybe…
Seems to me they are losing an inordinate amount of income by simply not serving alcohol in a reasonable amount of time… just sayin’

My husband and I just walked out of this restaurant. The service was terrible, we walked in, sat at the bar, never got a smile or a hello from the lone bar tender. She never introduced herself. We asked about a beer she had on tap and she said, «it’s an IPA», so we asked how does it taste, she then says «it’s an IPA» in the driest manner she could muster. She didn’t offer us a sample or even seem to be interested in us as customers. So we stood up and left.
Spend your money elsewhere if you want good service. We will not be spending our cash here nor will I recommend any of my business associates to come here. We will just go Gordon Biersch across the street. Servers are happy to see us and there’s always a good time to be had.

Ehh.
That’s my review.
See, i’ve been here more than once.
The 1^st time was on a Tuesday evening for Taco Tuesday. At that time, the steak and chicken were delish & my server was awesome. (Thin, Approx. 5′ 4″, blonde) She was super courteous and attentive.
Today, however, i’m having to say things more than once, and frustratingly loudly– because Chelsey (Or chelsea, the receipt cut off the last initial) has only been by three times, is kind of running around doing her own thing and not really listening.
Also, for a place that serves fish & chips and shrimp tacos amongst other things– you’d think they’d have learned how to control the fishy smell.
it smells terrible in here.
My sister ordered something from the bar & wanted to keep her tab open–
Was not given the option– until SHE asked.
Then, we ordered food and my sister ordered a 2^nd drink– got a check for the 2^nd drink and informed her that she already had a tab open at the bar–
to which she said «oh, okay. i’ll let them know.»
and returned with the check for the drink and the tab for the ONE drink my sister had.
my sister paid both, annoyed and returned to the bar to get another drink and pay for it, right away… again. So annoying.
My check-​in offer took forever to come, btw.
I probably won’t return at this point.
Unless I have time to kill and really want to listen to the ’80’s cover band on Sat. nights.
other than the experience with this evening–
the staff is nice and accommodating (in most cases).
Today

Wednesday night at 8pm, my buddy and i are working our way across Burbank and pop into the the Burbank bar and grill. It’s quiet. We order 2 pints of allagash white.
WHAT THE HELL?! $ 18!!! Even when theres no band and no dancing.
$ 9 a pint of Allagash White?! Even downtown LA isn’t that expensive!
In fact. Lets compare some prices:
6^th Street Tavern DTLA ~ Allagash White $ 6
Slaters ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ Pasadena ~Allagash White $ 6.50
Even The Must DTLA has the ridiculously strong Allagash Curioux for only $ 7
