BlackBook Lowdown

Serves late and seats outdoors in a town where, after 10pm, your options are mostly limited to mystery meat and iceberg lettuce wrapped in a flour tortilla. Comfort food like Kobe beef sliders, mussels and thick burgers are creatively complemented by more adventurous sides like sweet potato fries and mango soup, all served by a highly attentive staff that's a welcome change from the usual snarky-ass bar servers.

Bistro? You're missing the point.

These are hamburgers. METAL hamburgers. As in, they're named after bands, and they could kick your ass. This is a metal bar, for real -- not some Hard Rock Cafe concept bar. The staff is metal. There's more beard in this place that Hollywood. They know how to pour a pint and love their microbrews, without being beer snobs. There's something so real about this place, it's almost scary. And, much to the chagrin of the big biker owner, there's vegetarian options for all the burgers. Except for "the Slayer" -- you can't mess with that.
