Delilah

Delilah is an upscale restaurant/lounge in West Hollywood that, since opening in 2016, has maintained an impressive air of exclusivity, despite the fact that it’s pretty easy to get a table. The crowd on any given night is a mix of agents, contract Wilhelmina models, and skeezy guys at the bar with one too many buttons undone. All that aside, dinner here is pleasant. The food—including what might be the best chicken tenders in the world—is solid, the waitstaff is genuine and attentive, and there’s a jazz singer crooning in the corner. It’s basically a dimly lit Lawry’s with sex appeal. After 10pm, things turn quickly, so if you don’t consider yourself part of the bottle service and extra-curriculars-in-the-bathroom crowd, it’s probably time to grab the check.
