About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
Founded by Fred and Grace Cook back in 1921, the Pacific Dining Car serves quality steaks in the Los Angeles area. It uses only U.S.D.A Prime American beef that is aged and prepared on the premises for ensured freshness. Each steak is cut by Pacific Dining Car's own butcher and is grilled with an open flame to seal in the juices and flavors.The menu at Pacific Dining Car is a harmonious combination of traditional recipes with contemporary flair. Among its many steak choices, each of which feature various herbs, marinades and cuts, Pacific Dining Car serves top hits like the Baseball steak, which is the restaurant's thickest cut top sirloin. Finish off a meal with one of its famous desserts, like the chocolate soufflé, a specialty made with warm chocolate topped with fresh whipped cream.

    Our Pacific Dining Car experience was everything we hoped it would be. We made a reservation for an early dinner after a matinee at the Ahmanson and arrived even earlier. We were seated immediately. The wait staff was right on it with menus, water and pretty quickly, bread and butter. Two of us started with salads, the Dining Car and the Caesar. both were excellent. for entrees, we chose the 8 oz filet, rare, the knife and fork ribs, the chicken Dijon and the Chilean sea bass. The filet was cooked perfectly to rare and tasty. The ribs were Flinstonian, delicious and accompanied by "sidewinder" potatoes, that were marvelous - crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. the chicken received the thumbs up from my wife and the sea bass was outstanding (I know! Don't order seafood at a steak house! But this is the exception.) Served on quinoa with finely minced cucumbers and a delightful sauce, it was juicy and delicious. My wife and I each had a glass of wine, which worked perfectly for this early meal. Fairt prices and portions there. For desert, we shared a chocolate soufflé, which was a great capper to a great meal. The service was outstanding overall. My water glass was never empty (I'm a big water drinker) and we were well attended to by all. They are in their 99th year of business and right on the mark.

    Always such a treat to celebrate at PDC. Service is top notch, food is always excellent, and we always feel special dining here. The steaks are well seasoned and perfectly cooked. Lobster bisque is authentic with large chunks of lobster. We will be back!

    I have never spent over $70, for a basic breakfast, at any five star/ultra luxury restaurant in the world. When the bill came here I told my wife that a police report was the next order. Over $100 for steak and eggs, an omelette and coffee. Oh, and a sub for hash browns of melon assortment. Has to be a front for something illegal.
