The LA Link & Dine Restaurants - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Republique needs almost no introduction. Whether you’ve lived in LA your whole life or are just in town for a goat yoga intensive, chances are you’ve at least heard of this French restaurant on La Brea. The massive space looks like the courtyard of a church in the Burgundy countryside, and its varied menus (they’re open for breakfast, weekend brunch, lunch, and dinner) have everything from croque madame to pasta and crudo. But mornings are when Republique is at its best. The bread is hot, the pastries are fresh, and we'll happily wait in a half-hour line to eat plenty of both." - Team Infatuation
