The Proud Bird | Los Angeles

"One of my family’s favorite places to bring the kids. Easy parking, many food options, nice staff, and a great back yard with views of planes landing at LAX over the playground and the retired military planes the kids can run around."

"I needed a place to grab dinner near the airport. The Proud Bird fit my needs entirely. It wasn't a fast greasy spoon. It was a nice dining hall with kiosks to order from a variety of food places so it could meet most everyone's needs of traveling with lots of people. There is a large parking lot with free parking as well. There was plenty of seating as well as a bar. Outside there were fire pits on a patio overlooking a playground and some model plans. Also got to enjoy watching planes taking off and landing while we were there. The food was yummy, got a half pound of brisket to share so delicious, the waffle fries with the sauce was amazing and the Mac and cheese was homemade seeming, the California salad was fresh and had a good array of things. We were definitely impressed. Food didn't take too long either after ordering. Such a great experience and I highly recommend stopping in."

"Large establishment near LAX and the metro/bus station. Stopped by for a few drinks after a flight, on the way to the bus/metro station. Plenty of parking for those that are driving, but is walking distance from the metro/bus station. Parking has 4 ww fighter planes with accompanying tales. I said establishment as it's a restaurant, as well as somewhat of a history place. You order from the bar and the food is prepared across the bar (see 2 photos). There's a kids play area inside as well. Behind the building is a playground, along with other planes."

"I had been wanting to visit for a long time and finally got to do it. Fell in love with the place right away. As an aviation fan and lover, it is always magical to find places such as this. I brought my camera and was able to take a couple of great pictures and videos. The food is good, but I will come back for the planes haha"

"I loved it, and my kids loved it even more! Great experience in getting up close to the planes at a safe open space, while having great food and drinks. Kids loved the model planes and the playground. A great variety of food is available at a very reasonable price. All burgers could be replaced with beyond meat patty. So happy to have found this new spot."
