The Water Grill is certainly the best place to eat seafood in L.A. Here the mix of tastes is the order of the virtuoso. The dishes are mostly based on seafood. The decor of the restaurant and the service do the rest: It is less easy to digest the addition, which will inevitably be salty.

This Chinese bakery is a real gold mine where you can find typical sweet specialities. Around the moon's feast during the fall, the cakes moon sells to the excavator.

Stout offers gourmet burgers that have nothing to do with those found in fast food restaurants. These refined burgers have been in vogue in Los Angeles for a few years now and combine the hamburger principle with quality products.

With its 20 seats, the Fountain Coffee Room is not only a small typical establishment of the 1950 s. Located inside the Beverly Hills Hotel, it offers a mythical setting for enjoying caviar as well as a simple omelet. However, pancake and coffee are just as good. Milk-shake is also worth a detour.

A nice menu that changes according to the times of the day (breakfast, happy time, dinner). Fresh and simple products and fast service at reasonable rates. In short, a very good address, installed in a simple and class decor.

Here you can enjoy a clin of tomato sauce washed with tomato sauce. We recommend Monday evening menu Monday Night Supper: three dishes at $ 15, while the wine bottle is $ 12. The rest of the week, the prices are higher in this trattoria in the retro look, but we will come for its good pizzas. If you come to many, you can share the dishes and get out at a more reasonable rate. The focaccia bread is appreciated especially since it is enjoyed by two.

Don't forget to book in advance.

Although the prices seem rather affordable, Lebanese food lovers will quickly run up the bill, curious to try several preparations.
