Restaurants near Los Angeles County Museum of Art Lacma

Iconic restaurant with beautiful grand room. Prime rib and all the sides were delicious. At the beginning of the meal, Lawrys offers Warm sourdough bread and butter.The overall ambiance is elegant. I do miss the old/iconic uniform that the servers (waitresses) used to wear. Now, the servers wear a simpler uniform which pales in comparison to the old one.

Descanso was a delight. We opted for regular dining (versus la plancha) and the food was fresh, hot and delicious. It arrived family style, which is what we requested. The plates were much more interesting beyond the usual taquerita offerings. We split two apps, a carnitas entree and a Coco tres leche cake that was amazing! Our waiter (whose name escapes me, but he wore glasses) was attentive, friendly and informative and was right on the ball while we were there. We had told him that we were off to the El Rey to see a show after dinner, and he made sure that we were ready to go in plenty of time without rushing us. Would definitely dine with them again!

Dinner before the show. The weekly routine. Always finding new stuff on the menu at Fanny’s. The cheese board is my new favorite thing. Three cheeses and warm toast, honey and other goodies. Tonight I ordered a side of salmon and it was delicious. We the the s’mores for dessert and it was a lot of fun and yummy. Their desserts are elaborate and beautiful in presentation and taste great!

One of the best culinary values in town, Meyers Manx Cafe in the Peterson Museum offers both incredible tasting food and a diverse menu at great prices. I LOVE the breakfast burrito here. The runny egg and crispy potatoes are what makes this burrito unique and delicious. I also love the chopped Italian and pizza here. Our waiter told us they use a Japanese tapioca flour that produces a New York-styled thin crust taste along with a crispy chewy texture. Incredible!

Wonderful salads, & the staff is nice & most accommodating. I’ve been eating here a long time—glad the pizzas are back! xo
