Wedged between the tidal wave of fully engulfed neighborhoods to its west and an unprecedented revival of downtown Los Angeles, Echo Park is in the midst of a rapid makeover—or more accurately put, gentrification. As of December 2015, Echo Park is a vibrant and diverse neighborhood where you'll find historic houses and low-income developments, 6 dollar designer coffee, dollar stores, hipsters, gangs, bike lanes and free 6-day parking on side-streets. It's where the Dodgers play in their stadium and quinceañeras adorn nearby Elysian Park. It's where some of your favorite hit songs from the 70's were written, and some of your favorite new shops and restaurants are—or will be.
Simple, cozy and delicious american style lunch and dinner
the neighborhood's little green grocer
A must-visit east side women's clothing boutique.
Go-to spot for cactus fiends.
We can't get enough of The Park! They have some of the best salads in the neighborhood, so its definitely one our our go to lunch spots. It's a comfy, neighborhood joint with a talented chef who creates american/bistro style food. Their seasonal menus which include some amazing weekly specials speak to the creativity and talent of chef Josh. Tip: We LOVE the buffalo chicken salad! It's a studio favorite.
