"Part of the historic Normandie hotel, Cassell's is one of the best diners in Los Angeles. Sit at the vintage bar stools or order tableside, and Chef Dante (of Dante Fried Chicken) will grill up a killer burger while you sip thick milkshakes or an egg cream. Cassell's also offers a coffee bar in the mornings to follow their breakfast menu. Ideal if you're hungry for a bite after enjoying cocktails at the Normandie Club just next door, or if old signage takes you back in time and things that are as classic as they are delicious." - The HR Dept
"The enduring reincarnation of this longtime burger restaurant is a reminder that Los Angeles sometimes holds on tightly to its historic past. While takeout is always an option at Cassell’s, the best way to enjoy burgers here is in its retro-style dining room that looks out onto Sixth Street. The restaurant offers breakfast options, evening drinks, slices of pie, and everything in between — and right in the heart of Koreatown. The classic cheeseburger is among the best in LA." - Rebecca Roland
"“If you grew up going to theater camp like I did, Camp was a cultural tentpole and ‘Here’s Where I Stand’ is still a song you scream-sing regularly in the shower. If you weren’t a theater kid, you probably have no idea what I’m talking about. Either way, this is a movie you need to be watching. For one, it boasts a 16-year-old Anna Kendrick literally poisoning another girl to get the lead role in the musical, but most importantly, it’s the perfect excuse to order Cassell’s. The classic Koreatown diner serves some of our favorite burgers and shakes in town, and that’s exactly what you should be eating while soaking in the simple, childhood nostalgia of summer camp.” - BC" - brant cox, kat hong, brett keating, james montgomery
"Joshua Lurie listed this venue among places that are "part of [his] rotation," suggesting it’s a habitual stop for him while exploring the neighborhood." - Eater Staff
"Koreatown burger and patty melt specialist Cassell’s is another spot offering super-affordable cocktails. For $7, you can get a single serving of negroni, Moscow mule, Old Fashioned, or Gold Rush (bourbon and honey) - or larger batches that serve eight. There’s also a Downtown LA location - both are doing pickup and delivery via apps." - brant cox, brett keating
