One of my favorite spots --- Amazing Indonesian food, hardly a wait except on saturday/friday nights. Fancy, pricy but worth it mouth watering food. Recommend the crab dip, the braised beef, and fried egg noodle

Love this lunch spot! the Bahn Mi is exquisite, the owner partially cooks the bread and finishes it when it is ordered so you get a perfect sandwich every time. I recommend eating there so the sandwich isn't soggy. Favorite: pork belly

Vegetarians come here for thai food, more casual, less trendy, but a good restaurant setting that seats quickly. If not vegetarian go to night + market (but possibly long lines there, best thai food in LA)

Healthy fast lunch/breakfast/dinner for the budget conscious. I highly** recommend the street tacos that are set up at night outside of the parking lot on lincoln blvd (look for string lights and a line). Tacos/burritos/quesedillas. The Suadero, Al pastor, and Asada are my favorites in that order Open late till 12pm / 12:30am
