"There's one downtown and one in West Hollywood. It's a gourmet restaurant. It has macarons and stuff like that, and I don't wanna say this in a bad way, but it's super Instagrammable. It's like a patisserie. A lot of these places are also gourmet markets. I like when you can go and shop for specialty foods that you can't find at Ralph's or Whole Foods. And Bottega Louie has a really fun cocktail menu too. And they have this drink called La Passion on the drink menu, which has passion fruit—it's just so yummy and delicious. Sometimes you gotta wait for a table. It's that popular, especially the one downtown because it's near the Staples Center and it is a bit of a scene. If you want to be seen, go to Bottega Louie." - brennan carley
