    Flourless Chocolate Cake  (V, GF)
    Janelle H.

    Came here for a nice solo date after seeing a show.. and just ended with a poor experience. Upon arrival the host was welcoming. He asked if bar seating was okay and I said yes, however I was seated by the POS which is my least favorite seating but even with the constant waiter traffic, it wasn't too bothersome. I ordered the grilled salmon and the flourless chocolate cake. Both were delicious! HOWEVER, the ratatouille was a pile of slimey gooey mush siting on top of the bed of rice, under the salmon. I tried to eat it, but it just was so off putting I couldn't stomach it and pushed it to the side. Now, the real issue was my bar tender / server. After placing my order (I ordered my entree and dessert at the same time, no drinks), he NEVER came back to me. No one asked how I was doing, if everything was okay, etc. I was there long enough for at least one check in. He walked passed twice I believe, but no eye contact lol. I've never experienced that. I had to ask someone else for my check. I asked the person if I could pay via the inKind app, he said yes, gave me my check number and told me how.. but it looks like they still charged my card! So I'm hoping the pending transaction will be dismissed. Either don't sit at the bar here, or just don't come at all.

    Crispy Brussels Sprouts and short ribs
    Yula K.

    An intimate little French cafe where I enjoyed a nice anniversary dinner. It looks like its part coffee shop, part restaurant, part old-school LA bar, but tonight it was rather hot inside as we're in a bit of a heatwave. That didn't stop us from ordering the steamy provincial short ribs, cooked perfectly and paired with a delicious and crispy potato gratin. These were incredibly tender and savory. The Japanese sweet potato might have been even better though. Not particularly large but packed with flavor. A little yogurt adds even more sweetness. The Brussels sprouts were admittedly not my favorite. A bit too thick for me, which kept them from getting crispy. The pistachio flavor profile isn't really my favorite either. Despite the Brussels I still had a wonderful time here and our server was great. He was very personable and was QUICK to top off our wine. Loved him!

    Tartine Quiche Lorraine

    Had business to do in this area and so happy we chose this cool all day Brunch Spot. That Tartine Loraine was everything brunch is. We set at the bar and could look outside. The food selection is very vast.

    Perfect place to stop before a show in the area. The wait was not long but it was only me. The bar seemed to have spots open in decent time. Located near downtown theaters and shops, this can be a good date night or meeting spot. The music wasn't too loud so you can hold a conversation without yelling. I had the pepperoni flat bread which was perfectly cooked with crust edges. The cocktail was tasty.

    Grilled Salmon Plate (GF)

    Great experience here. Solid place for food and dates The aesthetic is simple and relaxed with district lighting focused at each table. It gives a nice ambiance. Food is great. Salmon was cooked well, as was the rice. Fries were amazing as well. My friend enjoyed the mussels Service was also good. Waiters were really attentive, patient, and gave solid recommendations

    I had family lunch at Zinqué DTLA today. My Mom treated me for my birthday. Everything was delicious! I ordered the Blueberry Pancakes, and they were perfect -- not overly sweet and had a very healthy version of pancakes, wholesome flavor, which I really appreciated. I've recently stopped drinking soda and sugary snacks for my health and have been exercising daily to manage my blood sugar, so it was great to enjoy pancakes that felt light and healthy. My Mom had the Avocado Toast with a Decaf Americano, and I also ordered a Decaf Americano -- it was very good. My brother ordered the Scrambled Eggs and an Espresso, and he said his meal was delicious as well. The servers were very friendly, and the food and atmosphere were wonderful. I had a great experience overall! Cf) Just one thing ; One bite Fritata was $5. Wow. But, all of other food's price was very reasonable.

    Campanelle aux Morilles (V) - DELICIOUS mushroom based pasta sauce
    Erber D.

    This restaurant is conveniently located right next to The United Theater on Broadway in Downtown Los Angeles and provides the perfect ambiance for a pre-show meal. There is cozy seating inside and high top tables outside, which is where I dined. The service was unexpectedly fast, as I got quickly seated within five minutes of speaking with the front of house. I tried the delicious red pepper hummus and cheese dip, which came with delightfully toasted bread. I moved on to the seared cod, which came on a delish carrot based purée and also tried the mushroom pasta (which I added grilled shrimp too). The food came out pretty quickly and tasted phenomenal, each plate with a whirlwind of flavor. I'm very glad everything worked out timing-wise, as dinner did not take long at all before having plenty of time to make it to the comedy show just next door. I am excited to go back and try some of the other delightfully sounding plates on the menu. Needless to say, I will be back in the area and restaurant again ASAP.

    Ratatouille (VG, GF)
    Cecile A.

    Really good, fresh food. Fun setting in the mall. Friendly and quick service. Perfect for a quick lunch over great food.

    Nelson H.

    I came here before my concert next door. I arrived 15 minutes before 6pm and made it for their happy hour menu! Cute ambiance - love the indoor/outdoor feel. The shrimp taco was delicious! Everything that we ordered was actually good. If the fries are good, you know it's a good restaurant. Great place to have a drink and dinner before a show!

    Rose L.

    Would not recommend their charcuterie board, no cheese whatsoever. Came with pate, which was horrific and gross -- salami, mustard and jalapeños. Made for a very salty lunch. The steak was good but the chimmicurie was horrific -- cilantro floating in oil. Fries were okay, but sure they tasted better fresh. For $60, go elsewhere.

    Potato Gratin
    Flora W.

    A beautiful and loved all-day open-concept restaurant in downtown for small plates, meals, craft cocktails, la colombe latte drinks, and more! I went to Zinqué few times now and always have a great time with friends. Their Le Breakfast Bowl is my go-to for lunch because its packed with veggies and just delicious! The bowl includes egg, quinoa, avocado, garbanzo beans, roasted cherry tomatoes, ninja radish, mixed greens, burrata, and is topped with miso-tahini dressing. I've tried their lattes here before as well and can't get enough of their iced Hazelnut Latte. It's perfectly sweet and packs the mid-day caffeine fix for me. A noteworthy fun dish I've had here is their Pork Belly Taco. It's a big-sized taco that is rich and packed with cubes of pork belly, and topped with carrots and cilantro for the perfect bite. I had one of these tacos and was full and satisfied. Everyone is very nice here and happy to get what you need. You pay at the counter first or you can sit at the table and order via the QR code. I'll definitely be returning and recommending Zinqué to many friends and coworkers for a great time!

    Iced americano
    Mel D.

    We decided to stop in for breakfast before heading over to the flower market. I saw several reviews which mentioned that their bacon and crispy potatoes breakfast burritos was good so I went with it. Agreed! It was very good. I also saw positive reviews on their potato gratin which was also very good. The ambiance of the restaurant was gorgeous. It would be a great place for a dinner date or to grab some drinks. A place like this with a big bar will likely have some good cocktails. I took off a star because the service could have been better. I'm not sure if they were short staffed that particular saturday morning but it was really slow for only a few patrons being in the restaurant. It looked like they were still setting up and getting the bar ready. Most restaurants and bars take care of a majority of the setup before they open, this place clearly did not so getting there right when they open might not be the best time. Street parking might be difficult at times and the area is a bit seedy but there are paid lots in the area, I always try to look for street parking which was meters in that area. Morning parking wasn't an issue.

    Smoked Salmon Toast Avocado Toast* (V)
    Bobby W.

    Zinqué DTLA delivered a consistently enjoyable brunch experience with standout drinks and well-executed dishes. Highlights: The Baklava Latte was the clear winner--rich, nutty, and aromatic without being overly sweet. The Hojicha Latte was equally enjoyable: smooth, lightly roasted, and comforting. On the food side, the Smoked Salmon Toast was excellent, especially with the added fried egg, which brought extra richness and balance. The Avocado Toast (V) was generous and thoughtfully prepared, elevated by quality ingredients and great bread. What to note: Portions and pricing lean toward the upscale side, but the quality and execution largely justify it. Overall: Warm, attentive service and Zinqué's signature cozy-chic atmosphere make this a great spot for brunch, coffee, or a relaxed catch-up in DTLA. A place we'd happily return to.

(Counting backwards on my fingers) Oh. My. God, I'm getting old!!!! ---------------------------- Alright now that we got that out of the way.... Listen up, & Listen up Good. Cause Tonight, Tonight, I'm setting the Bar straight! Now,.... Make sure to hang onto your ID, stay plenty hydrated & be ready to pace yourself... Cause we are about to Hit the bar running and go full throttle with some virtual bar hopping. But first, let's see just how many styles of bars there really are. -Ahh the classic, no-frills Dive Bar -The Cocktail Bar/The Martini Bar -The Sports bar, The BeerGarden -The Pub, The Tavern, The Biker Bar (make sure you wear your best leather pants) -The Hotel Bar, The Rooftop Bar, The Lounge -The Night Club, The Comedy Club, The Karaoke Bar -The Tiki Bar, The Wine Bar -The hidden Speakeasy (my personal Fav.) And of course, where even at 8am there's no judgement passed... -The Airport Bar. Speaking of Traveling... Bonus: Consider yourself lucky if your hotel room just happens to have a well-stocked mini bar. (These are getting fewer and fewer as I travel) Yeah, each bar listed above has its own vibe, and depending on your mood, your own individual style or even what kind of night out on the town you are looking to have... The type of bar you choose is important. But sometimes, the Bar Chooses You! Bar Magnolia quietly enters the chat. It was October 11th, 2025 and my wife & I just checked into Hotel Figueroa in DTLA. (EPIC REVIEW Coming Soon!!!) While we were waiting for our room to be ready, we decided to check out the Hotel Bar Lounge... First thought, Color me Impressed! High ceilings, Natural lighting, classy decor, comfy couches... Yeah, take your time with that room, we'll wait! So we plopped down onto their sofa, waited for a cocktail menu, and let the "we left the kids at home with Grandma; let's enjoy being kid-free for the night begin". $18.00 cocktails....Lets Goooo!! Looking back at the Photos, I can't exactly recall what we ordered... Was it a whiskey sour? Was it a paper plane?? Honestly, Who cares! They tasted great. I was sitting across from a beautiful woman. And we were responsibly adulting. What more could a guy ask for?? I'm glad you asked! After a long car ride in, sipping on water, then the first few sips of my cocktail, I suddenly had to go... Luckily, the restrooms are located just adjacent to the bar area and DAMN are they clean!! Hey, if a bar restroom is well taken care of, you know the place has Class.... And Bar Magnolia has the Class to Match! Of course, there is bar stool seating at the bar... (I usually prefer sitting at the bar as there's always some great stories to be heard and when it time to order another round, you can literally just cut out the... Middle Man (Aka waiting for your server to come check back in) In addition to the bar top stools, there are also low top tables, and a few couch-chairs with a low top table for more intimate conversations. Besides those $18 craft cocktails, a short, well Curated list of bubbles, vino and draft beers are all up for grabs. Unfortunately, we had stopped to eat before we arrived (bad move on our part), but next time, and THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME, we will definitely partake in their food menu (cause damn, did it look GOOD!) So whether you are a guest of Hotel Figueroa, you are leaving the Crypto Arena after a concert and want to paint the town red, or you are simply just wanting to sit, relax and enjoy a nice cocktail at a classy, upscale, but not so pretentious Cocktail Lounge... Bar Magnolia is your place! Well, it's almost closing time, they are about to call for Last Call, so order us another round, bottoms up and Cheers to us!!!

Once there, I was told happy hour is only Monday through Thursday. I pulled up their own website and showed it to the server. The response? A shrug. No apology, no explanation, no effort to make it right. This is straight-up false advertising, and the lack of accountability made it worse. If you're going to change your happy hour, update your website and train your staff to handle it professionally. I shouldn't have to argue with a bar over their own posted information. Won't be back.

I finally was able to check it off, thanks to a hotel offer with a dining credit. Dahlia is the gorgeous petite space behind the larger ground floor restaurant space now called Cabrillo (formerly Caldo Verde). Dahlia opened as a bespoke cocktail lounge, then began to offer tea. Now it's just tea. There are five 2-tops and two 4-top tables. All food and beverage venues at the Proper used to be under the auspices of famed chef Suzanne Goin and her business partner/sommelier Caroline Styne. They are no longer affiliated with the Proper, but many of their dishes/contributions remain. The last named vestige of them is on the tea menu, "Suzanne's Deviled-Egg Sandwich". The tea menu has several options: Classic, with a seasonal mocktail, or with different champagnes. I opted for the Classic experience, because the mocktail had mocha, not my fave. Server Lluvia was clearly a Dahlia veteran; she offered a tea-smelling of all the teas that interested me as well as crowd favourites. I ultimately chose one of these faves, Mad Hatter's Tea Party, which had passionfruit and vanilla. I declined milk/cream, but did get lemon. There were rock sugar sticks on the table. It seems the selection of tea sandwiches and sweet treats changes every so often, although the vanilla bean scone, dried currant scone, Devonshire cream and apricot orange jam seem like constants. The sandwich selection at my visit were: cucumber, crab/creme fraiche, beet hummus on pita, smoked salmon and Suzanne's deviled egg. All were delish, the beet, crab and deviled egg especially. The sweet treats were: orange fig butter cookie, spiced apple brown butter crumble, cranberry frangipane hand pie, chocolate mocha macaron, pumpkin madeleine, plus the 2 scones. All were excellent. There were no leftovers. A bit pricey, but a relaxing and lovely experience. The room was not crowded when I visited, adding to the calmness of my visit.

We came early before 8pm during Happy Hour when non-members can enter with a person with a membership which allows 3 additional guests, and all guests are free to enter without a membership until 8pm.

Under advice from Caña member Elite Yelper, Isobel L., who graciously took us under her wing, we ordered a shot of Nicaraguan Flor de Caña Rum aged 12 years that came with a cigarillo. We adjourned from the bar to the patio to smoke our mini-stogies and sipped our rum. We came early when there were very few members so it was the perfect place to talk and mellow out. Those who want a more animated crowd probably should come much later when lively dance music begins, and booties start to swing. Caña Rum Bar: 4 stars
