This place holds many details that surprise you. A mini flight museum inside, a nice playground outside and you can watch airplane landing every few minutes across the street. Attended a wedding party, excellent atmosphere, good service, drinks and the "beef brisket" was awesome.

I had an outstanding experience at The Proud Bird and will be returning next time I'm in the LA area. There are food options for everyone provided by 5 unique food stations "restaurants" inside. I really enjoyed the Mile High Bar and Lounge after dinner and had lots of fun. I had the pizza today and it was phenomenal, next time I want to try the Beef Brisket. The staff are very attentive and friendly and want to ensure that you have the best experience. The whole property is an aviaition museum with lots of history so build extra time into your schedule when you visit so you can take in everything! I highly recommend you give them a try, you won't be disappointed and leave with ever lasting memories...I did.

I reported details summary as incorrect as it says this place is a steak house with a brunch. We had layover on Saturday and was looking forward to Sunday brunch, the bartender told me it hasn't been a steak house in 7 years. The food we had was very good, chicken and waffles and a brisket sandwich with Mac and cheese. The planes and aviation history was great, just don't go if expecting steak.

There needs to be more places like this. It’s unique in that kids and parents can equally enjoy themselves. The outdoor space is fully enclosed and there’s constant activity overhead from the flying planes. There’s even a playground for kids and fire pit areas you can sit at with drinks! When I first walked in I was overwhelmed because it felt like a museum but also a cafeteria style restaurant with a bar and dining hall. It’s super simple, you can download an app to order food and drinks from. Or you can find a screen at the counter to order from. We got a burger, some corn bread, and enjoyed a few drinks. Happy hour is from 4-7PM. The prices are very reasonable here, and will definitely be coming back because of the affordability, ease of having children, and fun atmosphere. Plenty of free parking out front!

Great place to hang out, eat, drink, watch airplanes come in up close, and have your kids run around outside. Food is good (mostly American - burger, pizza, bbq, etc), with options for kids. Full bar for adults. There are also happy hour deals for those who work in the area and want to socialize after hours. This is my kids' favorite place, so we come here once-twice a month since the first one was a wee boy. Worth the drive from anywhere around LA. Hope this place stays open forever, so I can take my potential grandkids here many many years in the future! 😆

Went with my two kids ahead of picking up dad at airport and it exceeded my expectations. First atmosphere is super entertaining - walking up there are tons of air craft to get the kids excited, inside is a mini flight museum and outside is amazing play gym with more planes to picnic under. Second food huge variety and my tacos were so good - big healthy portions. Service was confusing for a first time - I ordered at a tablet didn’t get a text receipt but was texted to pick up - wasn’t sure where to go to pick up and there isn’t staff around to help show how to do it. But now that done it once easy to do it again and we’ll definitely be back.

Great food court. Good prices. Easy order process. Attended a birthday party. Nice outdoor patio. Kids enjoyed the playground structure and the planes on display as well as those flying above. Plenty of free parking in the lot.
