Great raw bar better, better cocktails

The Hungry Cat is a solid haven in a part of Hollywood where it's tough to make a good meal happen. The raw bar selection is legit-- we had a big sampler the last time there-- good overall with the exception of the Dungeness crab which was partially frozen. The most stand out feature of all though is the house cocktails. Innovative blends, all fresh ingredients. I hate to be so new school but the house margarita is one of the best I've had in LA.

Good bet for mid city.

The strength of Comme Ca is the overall package. It has a solid, clean aesthetic and feels more happening than lucques up the street, which used to be our go to spot in the area. A nice and sunny environment that is at it's best for lunch.

Great hidden spot

Discovered this place a while back after reading a review in the LA Times. This place is classic LA-- a gem hidden in a totally nondescript strip mall next to a laundromat and a fried chicken takeout place. It has a very intimate vibe and you can tell right away they take the food and the wine seriously-- it reminds me of spots like Ino in NYC except the wine list is much deeper and the food is better. They don't take reservations and in prime hours it fills up fast, parking is limited and service can be spotty depending on who serves you-- not a great place to hit at 9pm on a Saturday night if you need an easy low pressure date spot. But overall it's definitely worth a visit.
