Jazz and Blues Venue · Little Tokyo · 15 tips and reviews
Janet Nami McIntyre: Great acoustics, solid music, down-to-earth vibe, only $10 cover. Can't beat that for live jazz in LA!
Jared Northrop: Hear a musical conversation that is jazz, sip a Japanese single-malt, and lose yourself in a cerebral experience that leaves you yearning for more...
Arnie Panameño: Get the night going with some Tokyo Tea.

Titos Giannakakis: Greek pizza is great! Nice place in general. Pleasant and quick service. Has a Greek menu available also. Niko is a great guy!
Jessica G.: Love "The Mechanic" pizza! Good beer selection for a San Pedro joint. Not a fan of chicken parm sandwich, but everything else seems yummy.
Kurt Miller: I love this restaurant! Terrific atmosphere, plus the pizza is the best I've had in quite some time! I had the small (six serving) pizza, and it was baked to perfection with LOTS of fresh toppings!

Asher Levine: Chickpea wrap. This vegan wrap takes your typical falafel wrap/sammich and ups the ante with avocado. So good. All in, blind. Winning meal every time.
Shaarif Zia: Try the beef and turkey gyro..one of the best authentic Mediterranean restaurant..
Sahag Gureghian: Food was good but pricey for what you get. Nice and relaxing atmosphere but service could have been better. I'll go back.

Chris L: Made from scratch - borekas, delicious puffed-pastry pies filled with 3 kinds of cheese/herbs. Shakshuka, a corn-flake-coated french toast concoction. Benedict w/ crispy duck prosciutto. Patio!
Jen Weintraub: THE FRIES ARE THE SHIT
Tony Biel: Great baked goods. Pan au Chocolat was amazing. Highly recommend Eggs Benedict.
DAN COX: Great Happy Hour! And everyone is happy! A very welcome addition to Hollywood!
LogoTV: Best cocktails (Cucumber Dilettante- my fav.) & sweet potato fries! You'll love everything you put in your mouth! Ask for my husband Jay (he owns it) & tell him I sent you!- Michel, In the Big House
Thrillist: With projections of burlesque dancers, dinner dishes like steak skewers w/ sea-salt garlic oil & coconut ranch + half off all booze from 5-8pm, Felix is your first-class ticket to the confessional. Read more.
