Artisan Kitchen And - Hawthorne

We stumbled upon this little-known gem and can’t recommend it highly enough. The ambiance is lovely, with soothing background music that isn’t too loud. The food exceeded all expectations. Howie, the chef, is truly exceptional, and the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. If you're looking for great food, you have to visit!

This restaurant has it all: a wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff and owners, and, of course, exceptional food. Among the six appetizers and three main dishes we ordered, everything exceeded our expectations. The lobster mac and cheese is a must-try, as is the Margherita pizza. I'm sure I will be returning to this gem in the future!

The food, drinks, and service are fantastic! The menu features a diverse selection of classic dishes, vegan and vegetarian options, as well as gourmet offerings, and there are even choices for kids. Occasionally, they host live music, performances, art events, and character experiences. It's a hidden gem in Hawthorne that has something to offer for everyone.

We were there a few months ago with a big party of good friends, Friday. Dinner was really good, the atmosphere was excellent, and the live contemporary music made for an unforgettable evening. A jewel for Hawthorne and the larger area.

We went on the Friday before the Fourth of July week. It was quiet for most of the night., maybe 6 people besides ourselves came in and sat in the bar area. We had cocktails and appetizers, both were good.
