First of all, a huge shout out and thank you to Christian. He really saved the day at the Dunbar! He is one of the most respectful, attentive, polite, and hardest working young men I have seen in a long while ... and with a smile. My last experience left a poor review about 6 months ago. I returned for a second chance. The atmosphere is lovely with a nice layout of both high and low tables for comfort dining. This time, I was seated immediately after Christian answered a few questions. When he saw the other server had not taken my order, he jumped in and took care of it. He paid attention to all details, even letting me know my order was ready, but missing one piece of breast and asked if he could bring it out hot so I could get started. He went above and beyond. My entire meal was on point! There is plenty of food, great price point, and enough for a second meat in my to go box. I was so full I took Banana pudding home. After I walked around the neighborhood a bit, I returned for a few minutes for the Sunday live Jazz music. What a bonus! I highly recommend Sunday after 12:30 to catch some amazing musicians.

We went for brunch Sunday afternoon, no reservation needed. There were people but not a crowd. The service was good and attentive, if a little slow at times, but very nice and receptive. The food and drinks were delicious. We had the oxtails and short ribs. Limited, but beautiful parking lot. No wheelchair accessible parking but accessible entry and seating. Live music, clean decor historical location I'll recommend and revisit.

My daughter and I were familiar with Delicious on Crenshaw, we did not know this was a family business. It was our first time at the Dunbar, but it will not be the last. The dining room is intimate and the food was really good. I'm looking forward to Sunday brunch, we were told there would be music.

Excellent service. The fried chicken is true to the business name Delicious! Delicious Southern Cuisine at the Dunbar is a classy place. A must try! PS: I'm halfway through my meal. Sorry, forgot to take the photo prior to eating.

The first and older waitress had a sour face and deposition. We were there for good food, historical atmosphere, and service. The second female and younger waitresses was more face friendly...smiled...served with a kinder demeanor.☺☺😊 In the end we Loved our visit.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Delicious at the Dunbar. Their food is so good! I had the meatloaf, with greens and mac&cheese, I could not stop eating even though just half had me full. The wait service is also warm and welcoming. There is no dining in side, but the outside seating is nice, no matter the time of day. I consider this place a diamond in the rough. Mainly because this place celebrates the history of its location. Delicious at the Dunbar is located on central Ave, which is the birthplace to so many legendary jazz musicians. It also embraces social unity, and has a section on its menu dedicated to authentic Mexican cuisine. You can go wrong here, Go check them out, sit out side order a bottle of Moscato and enjoy the chill laid back vibes.

This historical building and the food was awesome for me. If these walls could talk I would be sure to listen. The food had great flavor and the plate was full of food. I had the jambalaya that was cooked perfect for me. Angie is a great mixologist. The chicken was fresh and cooked to perfection. Great taste. They do have live jazz nights. The restaurant is bright and inviting is the decor. This would be a great date spot. Or a great place to meet up with family and friends. The cuisine is Soul food, Mexican, Creole and Cajun. Breakfast is served until 2pm. This restaurant is in a residential area so parking is difficult.

Underrated place. The food was decent and the service was great. But the place was empty. I'm surprised! We stumbled across this place because of Dine LA. HUGE portion sizes for the price. Cute local eatery in south LA. We need more places like this in our area.
