"Welcome to 1958 and have a seat at the counter of this little turquoise time capsule of a diner. It’s the real thing and it’s been that way, like, forever. You’ve probably seen Rae’s in movies like Lords of Dogtown and True Romance - just don’t tell anyone. Get there early for some homemade corned beef hash and eggs, biscuits and gravy or Huevos Rancheros. In LA’s youth-obsessed culture, Rae’s reminds us that there’s history here - and it’s tasty. Cash only, baby." - TRÜF
