A short walk from Cedar Sinai Medical Center, 3rd Stop is a casual restaurant with florescent lighting and bar food. Small bites include tuna tartare on fried wontons and steak salad. Its bar offers a slew of beers on tap, including the Horny Devil. There's a patio for dining, boozing or escaping hospital food. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.abbeyfoodandbar.com Get on your knees and pray at the Abbey, a sprawling 16,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor drinking establishment that attracts a consistently fierce crowd of choirboys (and the clergymen that love them). Named "Best Gay Bar in the World" by the Logo channel, the Abbey is fun whether you're gay, straight or undecided, a regular jumping-off point for epic nights out in WeHo. Considerably more relaxed during the day, it's one of those rare and treasured L.A. establishments - a place where you can make out in the bathrooms by night, and take your mom for lunch the next day. You'll spot everyone from Perez Hilton to the cast of The L Word in this legendary haunt, and do treat yourself to a martini; the list features every fruit and berry flavor under the LGBTQ rainbow. Owner David Cooley, who founded the Abbey in 1991 as a small coffee shop, frequently hosts star-studded fund-raising galas at the venue, and his Oscar-night party, "The Envelope Please," raises more than $150,000 for AIDS Project L.A. each year. Become a regular, and you might just figure out how to gatecrash. The food goes beyond typical bar fare, with dishes such as an Ahi burger, Atlantic salmon, New York steak and custom omelets. Relax in the tastefully faux-goth environment (votive walls inside, gargoyles outside … and some cabanas) and gawk at the impossibly good-looking bar staff, whose sexual orientation may well depend on the size of the tip you choose to leave them, or which producer you work for.

http://www.committedinc.com A little further west down Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood, in so-called Boys Town, the bars are rowdy, packed affairs that pump up the dance music and pump out the drinks. At eastward-leaning Bar Lubitsch, the vibe is decidedly more casual -- and usually less cramped. Sure, the long wooden bar is never completely empty, and on the weekends the black booths that frame the other edge of the space fill up quickly with young drinkers in search of a stiff mixed drink, but a few large well-placed mirrors make the room seem bigger than it is. Most of the house cocktails -- including the mandatory Moscow Mule -- pack a strong vodka kick, but the full bar offers something for everyone, including those not inclined to do their drinking Russian-style. Drop by on a quieter Thursday night and you might just even find your favorite local stand-up comedian in the back, putting on a free show for anyone who cared to drop by.

http://www.barneysbeanery.com Founded in 1920, the original Beanery (there are now offshoots in Pasadena, Westwood, Burbank and Santa Monica) remains a landmark thanks to its loud and loose vibe and super-gigantic menu (including their famous, self-proclaimed "2nd Best Chili in LA"). Colorful booths, loud rock (heavy on the classic stuff), pool tables, TVs with the must-see game of the moment and karaoke keep the Bean boppin late. The brewskie crowd can get pretty sloppy, especially in the adjacent bar and outdoor areas, perhaps inspired by boozer ghosts of Barney's past including Charles Bukowski, Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin, said to have boozed up here the night she died.

http://www.stkhouse.com Adjacent to the sleek celeb hub STK, Boudoir has done away with Coco Deville's mod-ish mix of Pucci-like prints and swing seating, opting for a new sexy bedroom feel, all blue, gold and white, with billowy curtains, gleaming chandeliers and ample seating for groups. It's a seductive backdrop for the colorful crowds who dance and prance here after indulging in the restaurant's carnivorous delights. Some nights, you'll see starlets on dates, others it's haute gays vogueing on the floor, and still others, tourists who've read about the place in the tabloids. But no matter who enters Boudoir, one thing is for sure, all are expected to be dressed their best. The One Hospitality Group (behind STK and Coco, which also have clubs in Miami and, soon, Vegas) often enforce a dress code that frowns upon jeans and T-shirts. Lingerie-inspired looks are, not surprisingly, just fine. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.crownbarla.com Crown Bar used to be Tempest on Santa Monica Boulevard (fairly easy to get into except for Wednesdays, when The Alliance mans the door). On a recent visit, the floor was on fire thanks to DJ Michelle Pesce and a jovial jock-meets-Hollywood-hottie crowd, all of whom were sloshed by midnight. Though it's better known for the shutterbug hustle it attracts outside on hump night, we're happy to report weekends here are fun and 'tude/TMZ free. Even the door guy and bartenders were nice. The real shocker at this one? The place is completely unrecognizable from its former incarnation, with no traces whatsoever of old fave Tempest - ex-home of Club Underground (now at The Echo) and the short-lived version of Rodney's English Disco (thrown by The remodel (by the same bloke who redid The Abbey for SBE) manages to be tasteful without being stuffy: chandeliers, dark-wood accents, relaxing couches (yes, they were for bottle service, but that can't be avoided on a Friday night).

http://www.dominicksrestaurant.com For most of its existence, Dominick’s was famous as the Hollywood restaurant that never looked open, a weathered, low building, neon permanently unlit, across from the small amusement park that later became the site of the Beverly Center. It was, or at least had a reputation as, the original Rat Pack hangout. And when it finally changed hands, it was made over into a neo–Rat Pack steakhouse, then a neo-neo–Rat Pack fusion place, then a couple of other things I don’t remember until it finally ended up as a pleasant, much-enlarged, neo-neo-neo–Rat Pack restaurant with late hours, a killer recipe for spaghetti and meatballs, a menu equally divided between tough-guy American-Italian cooking and girly, salady stuff, not to mention $15 Sunday dinners that come with the option of a $12 bottle of a house wine with the unfortunate name of Dago Red. Oddly, it is a very pleasant place to be, even when you are not watching young television stars grope one another, which you usually are. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.eleven.la A glossy gay hot spot in the former Larrabee Sound Studios, part night club and part restaurant, Eleven is a two-story, spacious and sleekly designed West Hollywood location with colorful tile-lined walls. The food is primarily of the bar - or American comfort - variety. You'll find items like a hamburger, fish-and-chips, prime rib, nachos and Cobb salad. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.factorynightclub.com Gay, lesbian and polysexual partiers frequent this modern, space age-looking dance hub during popular promotions such as Friday's Popstarz and Saturday's Hard Candy (which features "amateur strip contests" and drag queens onstage). The spacious dance floors fill up fast during these promotions, though many choose to cruise at one of the numerous bars and semisecluded lounge areas. State-of-the-art lighting, video screens, smoke machines and a potent sound system make this gregarious space one of the hottest (literally) in WeHo, though its main draw is the high-energy crowd itself: young/old, alternative/mainstream queer clubsters dancing as one, and seemingly, always up for a new grind, musical or otherwise. Once a month, the club meshes with adjacent lounge Ultra Suede for a mega dance party. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
It's easy to find Fiesta Cantina on Santa Monica Boulevard in the heart of West Hollywood thanks to the tiki-hut like awning overlooking the front patio. This bar and restaurant has the feel of a beach-side bar in a Mexican port town. The menu is mostly Mexican, save for some French fries, jalapeño poppers, and Buffalo wings, and includes tacos, burritos and fajitas. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.fubarla.com This WeHo gay bar may be on the small side, but the parties are big fun thanks to some of L.A.'s hippest promoters. Mondays bring the edgy man candy, Tuesdays karaoke and weekends a mix of drag queens and area bar hoppers. An alternative to the area's "circuit" scene, this is the place where fierce 'n' flaming types and more rugged boy's boys alike let it all hang out to sounds ranging from electro to alternative rock. Often shirtless bartenders and photo booth add to the revelry. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
Gardenia is a restaurant, with dinner service beginning at 7 p.m., but it's really better known as a decades-old locale for cabaret performances. Even if you order from the menu (referred to as "international fusion"), you will still be required to pay a cover charge. Tuesdays are open mic night and perhaps the most popular evenings at Gardenia, when anyone, no matter their skill level, is allowed to perform. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.genghiscohen.com A large restaurant with a full bar and live music, Genghis Cohen is a place to eat New York-style Szechwan food on white tablecloths in big, black booths. One of its best-known dishes is the thick, deep-fried New York-style egg rolls, but its large menu also includes things like sizzling rice soup, Mongolian beef and shrimp with lobster sauce. Since 1990, the cozy adjoining music room, which is decorated with red lanterns and seats 60 about people, has featured singer-songwriters. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.hatfieldsrestaurant.com The main dining room at Citrus lay at the heart of California cooking in the mid-1980s, a clean, white space opening directly onto the restaurant's vast open kitchen, where you imagined you could follow the progress of your appetizer from garde manger to hot line to the spot where Michel Richard sponged a stray bit of sauce off the acre-wide plate. And if you've ever been to Citrus, the new Hatfield's is likely to snap your neck backward: The dining room has been scrubbed to its former glory, and there is a gravity, a sense of occasion about Hatfield's that never quite existed before it was transplanted from its smallish quarters a half-mile west. What used to seem quirky, or even chefly stubbornness - Quinn and Karen Hatfield's unchanging menu of yellowtail croque madame, smoked potatoes and date-crusted lamb - now reads more like an artistic statement. The culture-blending on dishes like seasonal seared prawns coated with Basque pepper and served on a vaguely Asian crab rice with toasted peanuts; or braised short ribs; or charred seasonal Japanese mackerel with avocado, dried pineapple and a salsa that splits the difference between Mexico City and Osaka, is assured. I visited the old Hatfield's at least half a dozen times, and it wasn't until they opened the new restaurant that I realized how well they cooked. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
