The Best Restaurants in Downtown Los Angeles, According to Eater Editors | Eater LA
"A sleek, modern yakitori spot in the heart of Downtown, this subterranean restaurant at the mega retail Bloc Project serves well-grilled skewers with some more modern touches. Menu highlights include the chicken meatball, eggplant, shishito peppers, and chicken hearts. The lamb lollipop, juicy and served with bright, crunchy house pickles, is another must-order. Those looking to add a striking photo to their Instagram should get the squid ink karaage, looking like little stones of charcoal but juicy on the inside from a two-day brine. It’s served with a black ranch sauce that completes the goth approach to fried chicken. With a wide set of cocktails, beer, and wine, Hatch makes for a terrific pre- or post-movie meal for those heading to the Alamo Drafthouse upstairs." - Matthew Kang
