Los Angeles Restaurants

  1. AOC

    Stylish AOC glows like the cozy wine cellar of a very good, very rich friend. With over 50 wines by the glass, a three-page list of savory tapas and a welcoming but discreet vibe, AOC easily remains a consistent favorite of couples, friends and groups alike, not to mention the typically fickle Hollywood hoi polloi. Reservations recommended.

  2. Bar Celona

    Fine diners savor seafood paellas and wine-braised steaks in Bar Celona's candlelit dining room while sangria-sipping hipsters linger in the late-night lounge. Between the two scenes, chefs impress with exotic small-plate specials at the happenin' tapas bar.

  3. Minibar

    The stylishly stressed seek the warm tones and tasty tapas of Minibar after a hard day in the studio mines - under somewhat disconcerting portraits of wide-eyed waifs. The menu, divided into This, That & The Other, offers an eclectic selection of delish small plate specialties. The gouda-stuffed yucca bread is a must. To find the place, look for the Valet of the Dolls stand between Universal Studios Blvd and Barham Blvd.
