Food

Bestia Los Angeles

Bestia is one of Los Angeles' most beloved and hardest-to-book restaurants, where chef Ori Menashe's rustic-yet-refined Italian cooking has won a devoted following since opening in 2012. Located in the Arts District, the restaurant occupies a converted warehouse with an industrial aesthetic that contrasts beautifully with the warmth of housemade pastas, wood-fired meats, and an in-house charcuterie program. The pizza, pasta, and offal-forward menu draws equally from Italian tradition and Los Angeles' multicultural pantry, making Bestia one of the defining restaurants of modern LA dining.

Los Angeles Union Station

Los Angeles Union Station is the main railway terminus of the greater Los Angeles area, a National Historic Landmark that opened in 1939 and represents a masterful blend of Spanish Colonial Revival, Mission Revival, and Streamline Moderne architecture. The station serves Amtrak's long-distance Coast Starlight, Pacific Surfliner, and Southwest Chief routes, and is also the hub for LA Metro's subway and light rail network. Union Station's grand waiting hall with its leather seating, marble floors, and wood-beam ceilings has become one of the most photographed interiors in Los Angeles, and it frequently serves as a film and television production location.

The LINE Hotel Los Angeles

The LINE Hotel Los Angeles is a design-forward property in Koreatown that opened in 2014 and played a significant role in revitalizing the neighborhood as a destination. Designed by Omaha-based designer Sean Knibb with interiors by Clive Wilkinson, the hotel's 388 rooms look out over the city skyline from a mid-century building with a dramatically modernized interior. The LINE quickly became a culinary destination through its chef-driven restaurants — including Roy Choi's commissary — and the rooftop bar draws some of the best sunset views in the city. Its location in the heart of Koreatown puts guests within walking distance of exceptional Korean barbecue, spa culture, and night markets.
