THE GET DOWN
A Hollywood landmark since the 1950’s, this old school steak house/Italian joint should not be missed! The experience at The Dresden outdoes the food, but it’s definitely delicious enough to give it a go.
You’ll appreciate sinking yourself into a high, circular shaped, leather booth while you think to yourself you should have put on your finer threads… until you hear the words “Mama, I need to pee!” and your fantasy becomes reality real quick. Makes for a cheesy date day I must say.
The early hours are more forgiving with the peepsqueaks. If they get out of control, the high booth serves as a place to hide (for you or them) and there’s plenty of pasta to enjoy.
The Dresden has live entertainment 7 days a week starting at 9pm. Jazz musicians Marty and Elayne have been a crowd pleaser for years and years.

For those with little
runners & screamers:
Easily forgiven:
Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.
Not promoted, but you should take the chance:
If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.
Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:
I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.
No contained area:
A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.
Enclosed, but space is tight:
If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
