Poncho Sanchez ( New Year’s Eve Celebration )

Before

0.3 mi · 7 min walk - Hollywood

Open on the same stretch of the Boulevard since 1919, with red-jacketed waiters and bartenders who mix the martini in a small shaker and leave the rest of it beside you in a carafe on ice. The counter and the bar take walk-ins. Sand dabs and the chopped salad are what people who eat here order.

After

short ride recommended · 5 min - Franklin Village

Jacqueline Koster opened this on Franklin in 1969 with crepes and omelettes and Edith Piaf on the stereo, and her daughter Francoise runs the kitchen now. It is a full bistro with a long bar that keeps pouring after the kitchen shuts. The back patio is where people end up.
