Food Scene

This place has everything you need. A great seafood restaurant overlooking the ocean, a little cafe with fresh coffee, pastries and homemade ice cream, and a badass whiskey bar in the back.

Sawtelle is full of amazing, authentic Asian cuisine - the best ramen you've ever tasted at Tsujita. Soup dumplings at R.O.C.. There's also a burger joint called Plan Check that will rock your wold.

Drinks & Nightlife

Another gem of a bar and restaurant, run by the same chef at Playa Provisions. Get their namesake burger and one of their craft beers on tap. Thank me later.

If beach bars are your thing, this one has some of the best burgers around. If it's too crowded, which it damn well may be, there are plenty of others within hollering distance.

This is one of those bars you're likely to see any type of person you could think of. They always have live musicans, DJs, comedians, etc.. The downstairs was an old Speak Easy.

Everything Else
