Dan Tana's

The 20 Best Italian Restaurants In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"When you think of the places in LA that have survived the test of time and more or less become integrated into the fabric of our city, Dan Tana’s is high on the list. You come here to eat classic, no-frills Italian dishes (like their glorious chicken parmesan), drink perfectly made martinis that arrive in the blink of an eye, and experience what’s probably the most quintessential old-school Hollywood vibe in the city. Dan Tana’s is a place where regulars get preferential treatment, which isn't surprising when reservation books date back decades. Calling last minute rarely works. Calling six to ten days in advance will usually result in a table." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore
