LA’s New Restaurant Openings - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"It was a bummer when Oriel in Chinatown closed, but its neon-lit building under the metro tracks didn’t sit empty for long. It’s now home to Cafe Tondo, a daytime cafe and wine bar hybrid with a heavy Mexico City influence and sculptural-looking furniture. Mornings feature coffee, matcha, chilaquiles, and conchas, with the menu shifting toward wine, spritzes, and bites like empanadas and tortas in the afternoon. We recently visited Cafe Tondo and added it to our Spots Of The Summer." - cathy park
