LA's Most Exciting Fall Restaurant Openings 2024

"Opening: November During the pandemic, Calabama owner Cara Haltiwange became famous for delivering her Alabama-inspired breakfast sandwiches and hot sauces via rope and bucket from the fourth-floor fire escape of her East Hollywood apartment. We were big fans. Now, after all the ups and downs (get it?), Calabama is opening a full brick-and-mortar space in West Hollywood. The menu will revolve around her signature breakfast grilled cheese sandwich stuffed with things like egg, bacon, and avocado, plus a few new Southern sides." - garrett snyder, sylvio martins

"The famed bucket-drop breakfast sandwich is back in business at Calabama; I need to reserve a sandwich and a time at Hotplate because on-site orders aren’t available, and the address is released upon order." - Rebecca Roland

Calabama Review - East Hollywood - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"For all the terrible things 2020’s given us, at least we can now get breakfast sandwiches dropped to us in buckets from apartment balconies. Seriously. Calabama is a weekend-only pop-up that operates out of an apartment in East Hollywood where the pick-up system literally involves a bucket drop from a top-floor fire escape. It’s a thrillingly hilarious experience, but make no mistake, the reason you’re really here is the tremendous breakfast sandwich. Stuffed with fluffy eggs, bacon, and avocado, it’s basically the world’s greatest breakfast grilled cheese - and that’s a superlative that should get absolutely everyone out of bed on a Sunday morning. Also, the chef makes her own excellent hot sauce that’s available by the bottle as well. Tip: Get some, that and then follow their Instagram for all the latest details." - Brant Cox

Folks this is the place for authentic country cooking with friendly down home country folks taking care of you. If you looking for a good Mom and Pops local restaurant then this is your best pick.

Ok so this place surprised me within the first 30 seconds with a wagyu burger as their special today. Didn't expect a restaurant in Franklin AR. The food was better than most if not all in the area in my opinion. We will definitely be back.

Went with a big group, and got seated immediately, which was nice. Now, I love different, but this girl also loves some nice comfort food, and Calabama doesn't disappoint in that arena The atmosphere inside is laid back, and our waitress was awesome. Like I said, I love me some just good homey food, so I got a grilled ham and cheese sandwich with some sweet potato fries, and my MIL got grilled chicken sandwich and some tots. Casual, clean and fast...

Great local place with yummy breakfast or afternoon meals! We ate there twice while we were in town. Our orders were correct and very tasty! Would visit again if in the area!

Food is on point! My chicken fried steak was probably the best I've ever had. It was hand battered and had no greasy taste. The butterfly shrimp was also pretty good. Sweat potato fries were delicious and the coleslaw was fresh tasting. The waitress was really friendly and the atmosphere was peaceful. They also had fresh homemade desserts. I took home to strawberry rhubarb muffins, they were absolutely delicious. This is a great place to dine, I definitely will be back. Highly recommended!

This little diner had great food options, good service, and decent prices. I ordered the Philly cheese steak and it was delicious. We also ordered the fried pickles as an appetizer and they were delicious as well. If you're ever in the Franklin area I recommend stopping by for a visit!
