What a place! Getting a reservation at Dan Tana’s is a challenge for sure, but once you’re in, you’re good! I love that they still use old school reservation book. It’s fun to see. The food is so delicious. The service is friendly and attentive. The place itself is very unique and can’t be found anywhere else.

Tana’s is the place to go for a great dinner, tasty cocktails, and maybe even rub elbows with a Hollywood notable. It’s a small place, so make sure to make a reservation. The prices are a bit on the high-side, but the portions are large (about the size of two entrees). The cocktails are well-made, and delicious as well. I ranked Service 4 stars, since the first night we went was spectacular, but the second night the service was polar opposite, very underwhelming. (Figuring that was an anomoly)

A group of us went to Dan Tana’s before a show. We made reservations the week before. We used the valet parking for convenience and we didn’t see any available street parking. Valet parking was $16, not including tip. The inside of Dan Tana’s has the vibe of a classic Italian restaurant your parents would take you to as a kid. The decor has not changed, nor should it. It’s classic! The restaurant is divided into two rooms. You enter into the bar/dining room. Our table was in the room behind the bar. There is also a small patio for outdoor dining. The maître d’ let us know our table was booked after us so we couldn’t take too long after dinner, which was fine because we had a show to go to anyway. The waiter was wearing a tuxedo, but he kept telling us it wasn’t a fancy place. The waiter was fantastic. He spent a lot of time talking to the group, recommending dishes, and making our experience there enjoyable. First we ordered drinks. The drinks were strong. They were quick to take our orders. I’m not sure if they are always that attentive, or they just wanted us to leave on time. Either way, we loved the service. Every meal came with a side of spaghetti. We ordered the classics: chicken Parmesan, Caesar salad, New York steak, and a few others. Everyone loved their meal. We also ordered a few desserts. Everything was delicious. I did take a peek at the patio before we left. There were a few tables outside but it was a hot summer day so no one was dining out there. If your looking for an old school Italian restaurant, this is your place.

The most important thing to know about this iconic destination in West Hollywood is that has been popular for many years including among celebrities. Al Pacino is a regular. If it had not been famous, DT’s might not have survived, since it appears to have largely maintained the same menu and look and feel for many decades. First-timers might be surprised that it is so small, much the same as a set used in television which is an appropriate analogy. Although it is dated, for many that predictability or consistency is what draws them back. This is old-school Italian American fare, generally speaking and it is done quite well.

Opened in 1964, Dan Tana’s is a LA landmark that has seen countless diners, celebrities, and travelers over its 58 year run. A yellow house on Santa Monica Boulevard it’s hard to miss and really stands out from everything surrounding it. It’s known for it’s classic, old world Italian food in a come as you are casual setting. It feels like you’re being transported back in time to the 1960s or early 70s, but in the good way. Parking options will be valet or metered street parking; there’s no free parking in this part of town or at least nowhere close. It was packed tonight and even though we made reservations a month ago we had to wait a bit to be seated so making reservations ahead of time is suggested. Also important to note it’s VERY loud on the inside so a private chat will be next to impossible.

Seafood pasta and Caesar salad worth the price of admission. Add to that a throwback interior environment and service that’s second to none. A must stop on your list.

Dan Tana’s is a classic Italian restaurant located in West Hollywood, and while the food is undeniably delicious, the overall vibe of the place can be a bit odd at times. The decor is definitely old-school, with red leather booths and walls adorned with photos of Hollywood celebrities from yesteryear.

The pasta was delicious and very savory. My son ordered the lobster tail. Came out burnt and overly dry. My drink was so strong I couldn’t drink it (many might not find that a problem) . Staff never noticed I wasn’t drinking it, nor that my son didn’t eat his lobster. Overall, it was a good dinner for 3 out of the 4 of us. Expected more from wait staff.
