A 100-year-old hidden treasure in the "Historic Core" of downtown LA. The french dip sandwiches are delish (I recommend the pastrami and chedder). And the decor is like a brothel from the Wild West. Leggi tutto.

You can't go wrong with the brie grits and white sea bass crudo. This is the best brunch spot in Dtla, hands down. Get their habanero hot sauce too.
Hit LB for its smoked wild boar sausage w/ roasted sweet potato, black kale, pearl onions & beer mustard sauce. Trust us on this one. Leggi tutto.
Sharing is what most makes sense here. Everyone will want to taste everything. Plates fly around the table as someone wants to try the bouillabaisse, which is a kind of miracle. Leggi tutto.
Had the black & white (aka: racial harmony <3 ) yesterday 4 hrs after buying & it was fresh & moist & delish & not too sweet but sweet enough, just like last review. LOVE Big Man!!

A post-modern high-end food court restaurant where different "concepts" merge at your table, from new twists on coffee and donuts, beautiful cocktails, takes on classic deli, and indulgent burgers. Leggi tutto.
Try everything on the specialty cocktail menu at least once. (Start with the French 75.) (Yes, even if you don't usually like gin.)
The kitchen gets the food out fast, which is why the restaurant can feed 800 on a weekend night. Who wouldn't gawk at the sight of so many people eating so much food, trying to shout above the fray? Leggi tutto.
One of the best Korean BBQs in Koreatown. This place is neck-and-neck with Chosun Galbee.
Ray Buhen opened Tiki Ti in 1961. By then he was a veteran bartender of LA’s prolific tropical bar scene. He created the Blood and Sand for actor Tyrone Power while bartending at the Dresden Room.
Yes, the Blood & Sand is their Hollywood classic drink. Yes, it is delicious. Yes, it will get you drunk / give you a brain freeze. HAVE ONE (or 10).
