"The Mid-City West and Beverly Grove neighborhoods surrounding Beverly Boulevard have long been a Jewish-American stronghold, but has often lacked a higher-end Kosher restaurant to meet their cultural needs. Now there is Charcoal Grill & Bar, a full-service restaurant that took over the short-lived Fleishik’s place three months ago. Their impressive wood grill, full bar, and relaxed setting have all built an early local following." - Joshua Lurie
