An old theater on Sunset gives way to a chic restaurant and lounge. Between the duck burgers, vegan pizzas, 70 beer taps and the communal tables, this place is actually designed to keep everyone... read more
Location alone (next to El Prado, across from the Echo) would make this place hot. The food ain't hurtin'. Vietnamese, but beyond the usuals. The owner's favorites from her hometown, Hoi An, are al... read more
Two Boots is New York, but it's wacky too. None of this one-topping-on-thin-crust. They've got Cajun influences. Spicy pizza? Why not. A stromboli or two, some po' boys...whatever meaty/carby feast... read more
Who knew the wilds could host a celeb-attracting coffee shop? Ah yes, it's Echo Park. Not open even a week and already Natalie Portman was stopping in. Probably for the chai: order it from the box ... read more

So this Moroccan spot is cash-only and doesn't serve meat, synthetic meats, or alcohol. YET, it's commonly regarded as one of Echo Park's top restaurants. What's it's secret? It's all in the ingred... read more
A vegan caterer and purveyor of packaged goods has taken the plunge and rented out some brick and mortar space. The idea is a latter-day ice cream parlor with 11 unusual flavors, all of them vegan.... read more
Pumping and pushin' five decades of traditional mexillence, with the time-worn waitresses to prove it. Tasty margarita specials offset demented sized portions of sopes, tamales, huevos rancheros an... read more
We ain't leaving 'til fo' in the mohning! DJ's Weds thru Sun. Servers too jaded for fast service. We're too sexy for tofu scrambles and 'squirrel sautee.' Packed at night with the recently inebriat... read more
