My favorite places to eat and grab drinks in the LA and surrounding areas. I look for quality, service, and ambiance.

This is such a cute rooftop bar, with a DJ and food truck serving tacos. They even have vegetarian options for those who are like myself.

The Edmon is a hotel bar and restaurant but it’s a great local place that I enjoy going. The bartenders are also very friendly and it’s a lively place.
The Edmon
This a more quiet spot, but if you are into sports they have every game on at once on different tvs so you have options. The bartender is very friendly and the vibe is chill
LAces Bar
I love the drinks and potato taquitos from here. During Halloween they have a fun set up.
Pattern Bar
Very cute wine bar with a full menu. The cheese board complimented the wine nicely and the ricotta dumplings im still thinking about them.

Bacari is one of my favorite restaurants. They have multiple locations throughout La and are tapas style so perfect for sharing. The silver lake location is very beautiful and has you feeling like you’re in a forest.
Bacari Silverlake
The food was great, and the ambience was lovely. The trees with the lights made the whole place feel enchanted.
Ysabel
This is another place with multiple locations but nothing beats the DTLA location. The vibes are always on point, with cool music, fashion, and people.
JOEY DTLA
More on the pricey side but if you’re looking celebrate this place will have you feeling like you’re are fine dining. You have to get the squash blossoms, and the drink menu is amazing.
Funke
Love this place for meeting up with friends or family. It’s perfect for sharing, all the sides are enough for multiple people and everyone can order their own tacos. Another honorable mention is their salsa tower with chip.
Casita | Modern Mexican | Sherman Oaks Restaurants
Such delicious and authentic Italian food. Everything I’ve tried from pasta, to pizza, to appetizers did not disappoint.
