"A longtime Echo Park restaurant that has anchored the neighborhood’s evolving dining scene is slated to end its run in March; current owner and incoming partners coordinated a planned transition that will close the spot and reopen it under a new name in early summer. The new operators—hospitality consultant Johnny Jeltema (with experience at Covell and Hotel Covell) and Dave Abrams (a partner/operator at a beer-and-chicken spot)—say the relaunch will preserve the neighborhood vibe with reasonable prices and genuine hospitality, especially on Dodger game days." - Farley Elliott
