"A widely used online reservation system that has been targeted by bot activity that scoops up desirable booking times; it also participates in partnerships with payment-card companies that can grant certain cardholders exclusive access to high-demand restaurants." - Ashok Selvam
"In addition to an all-day restaurant set inside a greenhouse, the rooftop at The Line Hotel in Koreatown also has a resort-style pool. It’s lined with reclining lounge chairs and big umbrellas where you can order bar snacks and hear live DJ sets on weekends. The breakfast and lunch menus here have a solid mix of omelets, sandwiches, and bowls of granola-topped chia pudding. Most people simply come here for a scenic departure from the chaos that’s always happening down on Wilshire." - nikko duren, kat hong, brant cox
"Koreatown may not be the first place that comes to mind when thinking of dining in a Los Angeles greenhouse, but Openaire proves skeptics wrong. Located on the pool deck at the Line Hotel, the verdant glass hall feels like entering a different world. Plants hang overhead as light shines through the windows during the day, and city lights twinkle at night. If booking for a group larger than 31 people, Openaire offers fully private events. For some post-wedding fun, make sure to ask about the Line’s karaoke room, which is a hotel room equipped with a conversation pit and karaoke machine." - Nicole Adlman
"This restaurant at the Line in Koreatown will have a six-course Christmas Eve dinner ($75) that includes filet mignon and Main lobster thermidor, sunchoke and ham bread pudding, and more. And for New Year’s Eve, they’ve got a family-style meal for two-to-three ($275) or four-to-six ($550), with a caviar and smoked salmon platter, shrimp cocktail, oysters Rockefeller, grilled lobster, and more. Order online." - brett keating
