Craft L.A.

Tom Colicchio’s West Coast outpost of Craft, overseen by talented chef Matthew Accarrino.

El Carmen

A gritty bar beloved for its tequila list, laid-back crowd and posters of Mexican wrestlers on the walls.

Jones

One of Colicchio’s favorite Los Angeles hangouts, with an old-school Italian-American feel, red booths, pizzas and classic drinks.

Ruen Pair

A late-night strip-mall restaurant favored for its authentic Thai dishes, like a salad of braised duck’s feet and wide noodles topped with pork cooked three ways.
