Zizou

The 25 Best Outdoor Patios In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Zizou’s back patio coolness comes from its surprise factor. This French-Moroccan wine bar in Lincoln Heights has a blank stucco facade and is all but silent from the sidewalk. Then the sound system hits as you move inside. Moroccan funk booms from big retro speakers. Glowing ruby red lights illuminated the gold-tiled bar and spacious back garden. People lounge on plush booths, drink natural wine, and eat moules frites under passion fruit vines, as if they’ve stumbled on an oasis off the 5. Everyone—including the staff—gets into the music here (especially after a few glasses of sancerre), so don’t be shy about making use of the ad hoc dance area." - brant cox, arden shore, sylvio martins, cathy park
