Looking for a place to eat dinner before the show?
Xiomara, just two doors from the theatre.
Try one of these restaurants within walking distance of our theatre:
Xiomara (located two doors south of the theatre, on the corner of Seward and Melrose)
For a refreshing take on Latin flavors, head over to
this warm, friendly Cuban-driven Nuevo Latino restaurant, where charming chef-owner Xiomara Ardolina whips up wildly creative and adventurous dishes that are particularly lovely with a couple
of the trademark mojitos, for which they grind fresh sugar cane at the bar. Full bar, moderately priced.

A few more places only five-six blocks away, near Highland and Melrose Avenues:
Susan Feniger's Street.
Street
This is the newest restaurant in the hood. Owned by Susan Feniger (of the Too Hot Tamales of Food Network fame) based this restaurant on street vendor food from around the world. This is higher end, but casual. All of the food is delicious and served as small plates, meant to be shared. Prices are moderate, reservations a must.

Raffallo's
At Raffallo's, it's old-style Italian ambiance, from the worn leather
booths and dim stained-glass lamps to the dungeonlike iron
candleholders and wine bottles lining barred windows. Inexpensive. Good for kids.

Pizzeria Mozza
One of the hottest restaurants in LA. Moderately priced, but reservations can be hard to come by, so make them well in advance. Pizza for grown-ups. Beer and wine. Its more pricey sister, Osteria Mozza, is right next door, but you should allow plenty of time if you want to enjoy this high-end eatery from chefs Mario Batali and Nancy Silverton.
