This place is a beautiful, airy space in Silver Lake with a full bar and restaurant. I like to sit at the bar and enjoy a nice rosé. Also if you eat fish their trout salad is delicious!

Pricy but delicious. If you're looking to spoil yourself and a significant other this is the spot. The bar is pretty damn cool too, and the drinks are crafty and good (great wine selection too). Again, this place is not cheap but it's a good time)

OK, this is the SPOT to eat if you are on a budget and want to enjoy a good breakfast (they close at 4). I love the staff because they are super friendly. Ask to sit outside so that you can people watch! Across from the 99 cent store and Yummy, so you can get your budget on!

This place has two sides, a place for dining (which looks like something out of Scarface, really cool for dates); and a bar side that’s literally where they filmed the the bunny scene in Swingers. Look to see if you are here when Marty and Elaine play, you will have a good time for sure.

Hey, I like to pop in here after eating at Millie's and the 99 cent store. You can grab a salad or sandwich from their deli then sit outside to enjoy the weather. On the weekends there is a great flee market with awesome vintage clothing.

Nico and Bulliet not only sell awesome clothing, but 70's vintage jewelry, records, wall hangings, etc...The owner is a pretty woman always dressed to the nines in awesome 70's outfits, I love to go to Andante coffee and the record shop next door. Mohawk Bend is a restaurant a few stores down with a great patio, and directly across the street is Wells Fargo, and ice cream shop, burger place, and a Chipotle.

What a fun place for browsing and gift shopping; this place is so entertaining you might be in there for a while, but thats ok have a veggie burger and a beer after at Unami burger (a few doors down). If you like thrift shops there is a great Goodwill super nearby, and also a vintage shop right next door. Super fun: )

Entertainment & Activities
Best price movie theater just about 10 minutes by car on Vermont (which is just a great street for shopping, eating, and walking around). Los Felix Theater always has 3 of the best movies out, I'm rarely disappointed. Be sure to buy your tickets in person like the old times way, they don't take online reservations.
