Remember The Dresden from Swingers? Well, Marty and Elayne are still there performing jazz standards Monday through Saturday from 9:00 pm – 1:15 am. There’s no cover to get in and valet parking is available for $2.50. If you want to sit at a table or booth, there’s a two-drink minimum, but it’s totally worth it to check this place out. They also have an Italian restaurant here, so you can have some fettuccine alfredo before you get rocked by the lounge act.

The Alcove is one of the most reviewed L.A. restaurants on Yelp, and for good reason. This converted brick bungalow opened in 2004, and has been a favorite of Los Feliz residents, and those from outside the neighborhood too, ever since. It’s open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but brunch is definitely the meal to get at Alcove. If you’re in the mood for something high-end and decadent, check out the Shrimp and Lobster Omelet or if you’re looking for something simple and delicious, go with the Breakfast Burrito. No matter what time or the day you’re eating, you can’t leave without sampling something from Alcove’s to-die-for bakery. From individual Molten Lava Cakes to Blue Velvet Cupcakes t

It hard to live in (or even visit) Los Feliz without making a stop at Fred 62. It seems to happen no matter what you do. Open 24-hours and boasting an eclectic California diner menu, Fred 62 is the place to go after a long night (or during a long night). The retro kitsch atmosphere has a good dose of attitude (“punk tarts” anyone?) and the service is fast and no-nonsense. Fred 62’s food is exactly what you want from diner food–comforting and satisfying. What more could you ask for?
