The Hit List: New LA Restaurants To Try Right Now - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Squint and you might assume Attagirl follows the same formula as every other clubby new Mediterranean restaurant of the moment: wicker basket lamps, a dash of house music, and a mishmash of mezze that spans (one too many?) cultures. But there’s a crucial difference, and it’s that this spot from the Ryla people next to the Hermosa Pier does it better than everyone else. The smoky kebabs grilled over oak in the parking lot are a highlight—the beef one puts the tender in tenderloin—and great for anchoring a breezy dinner of small plates, like spicy lamb meatballs and phyllo spinach pie with lemony bechamel. Cocktails plus dips plus Whitney Houston remixes equals a fun night. The math checks out." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park, garrett snyder, cathy park, cathy park, cathy park, brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park, brant cox, brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park, brant cox, sylvio martins, brant cox, cathy park, brant cox, brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder, sylvio martins, cathy park
