DTLA, Los Angeles · bar
A Belle Époque fever dream of a cocktail bar, tucked inside a historic Spring Street building and lit by a salvaged stained-glass ceiling from a vintage train station (yes, really). The drinks? Herbal, high-concept, and often smoked, flamed, or spritzed—crafted in-house with wild local ingredients like oyster-leaf and purple yam. It's all velvet booths, marble tables, and a no-standing policy that keeps the chaos at bay. Head upstairs (if you can snag a res) for Le Néant, the moody speakeasy omakase.
