4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles - Eater LA
"Burbank’s Inkwell Tavern is built to feel like a writer’s retreat. There are famous authors and pages of books highlighted throughout the warm space, and the leather seats and glassy accents certainly draw people in. But look beyond the low-lit bar to find a neighborhood hangout that offers something more than just a literary tinge. Here the drinks skew classic (yes, there’s a Hemingway daiquiri) and strong, and the wine list is a surprising mix of known Central Coast labels like Fess Parker and brut nature Champagne from 215-year-old French houses. The food is a mix of Brussels sprouts and twice-fried wings and skillet-baked macaroni and cheese, but the beef tallow-cooked waffle fries with roast pork steal the show. There are whiskey flights on Wednesdays and weekly pub trivia nights, a kind of high-low mixture of suburban fun and finesse that feels perfectly Burbank. Stop by the wood-lined getaway soon for a look at what a neighborhood bar can be." - Eater Staff
