CALIFORNIA CUISINE | INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS | L.A. ATTITUDE
Chef Kim Vu blends technique with a host’s intuition, layering char, sauce, and acid until the flavors lock in. Precision without pretense. For locals, crews, and celebration seekers, not velvet ropes.

Backyard Garden Party × Night Market Energy
A fun-casual brasserie built for the patio, where the grill leads the room and the service wears sneakers, anchored by our coal-fired ribeye cap finished with miso demi, green peppercorn jus, and a marrow-butter add-on you won’t forget, and paired with the Garden Glow Martini, clarified yuzu, butterfly pea gin, cucumber ice, and a citrus-sparkle rim, with an equally photogenic Free Spirit twin.
Big Host Energy, On Call
Date Night
String lights, patio breeze, plates coming hot; and craft cocktails that will make you swear you’re somewhere special
Big Tables & Milestones
From first pours to warm plates, we pace the party so the photos hit and the food eats like a meal.
Private Events & Catering
A 4,000-sq-ft backyard-style patio with fire pits, a cozy indoor lounge, and a street-view front patio give you three ways to gather.

Wings hiss, quesadillas blister, fries crackle, sauce turns to velvet, big-ice stirs in the glass, date-night toasts catch the patio glow.
A year ago, Chef Kim sent an email to The Lab and asked a pretty simple question: What would make you come to Sorry Not Sorry more often?
One member told us she loved salmon — and that if we had more fork-and-knife entrées, instead of so many burgers, tacos and handhelds, she`d have another reason to come in more often.
Fair.
So we listened.
We developed our Miso Glazed Salmon: salmon glazed with white miso, mirin and sake, finished with sesame oil, scallion relish and crispy shallots. Savory, silky, a little sweet, with all that crispy goodness on top.
We developed the Steak Frites around the same time.
And the people you`re looking at in these photos? That`s The Lab gathering at Sorry Not Sorry when we debuted both dishes and asked them what they thought.
And yes — the whole thing was complimentary.
They got a welcome cocktail, free-flowing wine, and full-sized entrées because we genuinely wanted them to come eat, drink, hang out, and tell us what they thought.
That`s what The Lab is supposed to be.
Not just another restaurant email list.
It`s where we ask questions, try things, get your feedback, throw complimentary events, invite members into the restaurant for more personal gatherings with Chef Kim, and occasionally change the menu because one of you had a very good point.
Want in?
Join The Lab and we`ll email you a complimentary drink voucher. We`re also currently doing a drawing for a magnum of wine — and we`ll keep creating more complimentary events and member experiences.
And if you`re wondering whether the salmon made the cut: it did. 😏
It`s on the menu now. Come get it.
We have plenty of room tonight, Friday, Saturday night and Sunday. Grab your people, come hungry, and tell us what you think.

Workin’ 9 to 5? Your boss did all the takin’. We’ll do all the givin’ from 5 to close. 😏
This is your reminder that Sorry Not Sorry doesn’t have to be a special-occasion plan.
Clock out. Text the friend you haven’t seen enough lately. Come grab dinner, split something you swore you weren’t going to share, order the drink you’ve been thinking about since last time, and stay for another round.
Because the best way to become a regular is to stop waiting for a reason.
We’re here Tuesday through Sunday. Come make “after work at Sorry Not Sorry” part of the routine.
And if you’re planning on becoming a regular anyway, join The Lab while you’re here and get a complimentary drink on your first visit as a member.

Everyone knows us for the patio. But on a rainy Sunday, the inside hits different.
It’s cozy, intimate, colorful, and made for settling in with good food, a drink, and people you actually want to spend time with.
We’re open until 10 tonight. Happy Hour is 5–7 PM, and bottles of wine are 25% off all day.
Come spend your Sunday with us.

Kimchi quesadillas are what happen when we stop pretending a quesadilla has to behave.
Spicy fermented kimchi. Melted Jack cheese. Sour cream and guacamole cooling everything back down. House salsa on the side. Then we cut it open while the cheese is still doing its thing.
It’s vegetarian. It’s gluten-free. And it is extremely Sorry Not Sorry: familiar enough to crave immediately, weird enough that you’re probably not making it at home.
Bring the friend you’ve been saying you need to see before summer disappears. Order a table full of things. Stay for another round. Labor Day weekend basically starts now.
We’re serving dinner tonight through Sunday.

Some steak dishes are about the size of the cut.
This one is about the bite.
We take ribeye cap — deeply marbled, ridiculously beefy, and one of the most flavorful parts of the ribeye — and char it hard so the edges get dark and caramelized while the inside stays juicy.
Then we finish it the Sorry Not Sorry way: with our Vietnamese shaking beef sauce. Savory, garlicky, a little sweet, a little tangy — and exactly the kind of sauce you start dragging your fries through once the steak is gone.
Now picture it:
You’re on the patio in West LA. There’s a cold cocktail in front of you. The Steak Frites hits the table still smelling like the grill, and everyone immediately reaches for a fry.
You were meeting for “just one drink.”
Now you’re ordering dinner.
That is exactly the kind of night this dish was made for.

Back to school means everyone is suddenly back on a schedule… which also means it’s time to finally see the people you kept saying you were going to see all summer. 😅
Send the group text. Make the plan. Come do #GirlDinner, Dine LA edition tonight or Sunday.
We’re talking wings, sliders, turmeric garlic fries, nachos, dessert, and the return of some old SNS favorites behind the bar — including Jenny From The Block. Basically: all the things you want, all at once, with people you’ve missed.
We’re closed Saturday for a private event, so this weekend is really Friday + Sunday.
@dinela ends August 28, which means there is officially very little time left to keep saying, “We should go.”
3 courses • $35 • SNS Greatest Hits
Make the reservation. Then send this post to the friend who’s been impossible to pin down all summer.
Coffee after dinner is fine.
Coffee with rum, crème de moka, crème de cacao, sweetened condensed milk, cinnamon and star anise?
That’s more our speed.
Our Spiked Vietnamese Coffee is one of the coffee cocktails waiting for you at Sorry Not Sorry—and Dine LA is a very good excuse to make a night of it.
Come for the $35 three-course Dine LA menu.
Stay for the cocktails.
Order one more than you planned.
Dine LA at Sorry Not Sorry
Tuesday–Friday: 5PM–close
Saturday–Sunday: 12PM–close
Reservations recommended.

Can’t wait for Dine LA?
Good news: the dishes you love are already here.
Come by this weekend for Vietnamese chicken wings, the Shaking Beef Burger, turmeric garlic fries, nachos, signature cocktails, and the patio dinner you have been thinking about all week.
Then come back August 14–28 for **Dine LA: SNS Greatest Hits**.
We are taking some of our most popular dishes and serving them as a three-course experience designed to let you taste more in one meal.
Think of it as a flight of Sorry Not Sorry favorites:
🍗 Vietnamese Chicken Wings
🍔 Shaking Beef Sliders
🍟 Turmeric Garlic Fries
🌮 Nachos
🍪 Dessert
Three courses are **$35**, and your whole table does not have to participate. One person can order Dine LA while everyone else orders from the regular menu.
So the plan is simple:
Come this weekend because waiting is overrated.
Reserve Dine LA because one visit will not be enough.
