Pig 'n Whistle
 Reader reviews: Write a review | Read other reviews The pig is back, and he brought his whistle: Chris Breed and Alan Hajjar, who own the Sunset Room in Hollywood, have reopened the old Pig 'n Whistle, which first opened in 1927. English-born Breed has restored the Pig's old ceiling beams, the plaster light sconces, the stained-glass windows and the original marquee showing a pig playing a fife. ("Pig 'n Whistle" is a pun on the medieval English spiced wine drink wassail and the piggin, or cup, it was traditionally served in.)
There is definitely pork on the menu, which offers a glazed roasted young pig at dinner along with osso buco, shepherd's pie and grilled chicken with roasted garlic. At lunch there are lots of salads and sandwiches. It's open for lunch and dinner every day except Sunday. After 10 p.m. it becomes a martini bar by the name of NuBar. — Angela Pettera Reader Reviews

John Williamson Virginia Beach, VA My wife Jan and I went there in 2002 and had a ball. Good food, great atmosphere. The long and winding road to the bathrooms was odd, though. We ran into Harrison Ford out the Boulevard afterwards where he was filming Hollywood Homicide. Quite a memorable evening. May 29, 2007
truereview los angeles, CA Women, take heed and BEWARE! This place is ran by the most belligerent, beguiling management I have ever encountered.If you enjoy being called the “b-word” and your race being belittled (by the staff), then by all means-this is your hangout! But, for all the beautiful women, and men, who are just really looking for a down-to-earth, all around good vibe spot- this is NOT the place to support. This place is a joke! October 11, 2006
