"Grab a cup of "The Cure" and sit outside with a friend. Amazing beer, cheese, wine and gourmet goody selection. Grilled cheese nights (Wednesday) should not be missed by any GC afficiando."

"Get the Trenne pasta, it's delicious"

"Rattlesnake and rabbit is where it's at..."

"The apps and cocktails are where it's at... The foie gras pate and bacon wrapped bacon are amazing. Place feels like you're on vacation when you're not. Still need to try it for brunch."

"The Facebook show on Wednesdays is a must-see; Get tickets a few days in advance - $5. Line up no later than 30 minutes before the show starts. Bring food, booze, whatever. Always hilarious."

"Gjelina is one of my favorite restaurants in LA; I suggest ordering every damn thing on the menu... Start with a ginger lime pilsner, mmmm."
