Drinks & Nightlife

Super beautifully designed, great food and drinks based off hyper-regionalized Mexican American Echo Park-specific culture and cuisine. It's better to sit inside, the parking lot-adjacent seats are a little meh.

Arts & Culture

Iconic marionette puppet place -- adults will still love shows here, they're i-n-c-r-e-d-i-b-l-e and this place has so much charm it might actually kill you. Kids will love this too, and it will not kill them! This spot is moving to Highland Park, so google it before you book tickets.
