Simple food at amazing prices.
Nicole and I like to eat at Lala's on Melrose before we see a Groundlings show. Each time we've been back we've received the same great service and food. The Argentinians don't waste a lot of time trying to make your food taste like something it's not or distract you from the main dish with frou frou sides. If you get steak, it tastes like steak. If you get chicken, it tastes like chicken. They've got delicious salads, sandwiches and pasta if you're into that but I like to keep it simple. A piece of meat and a side. Bam, that's it, two delicious items on my plate for under $10 (if I go with the chicken). Plus, they've got $3.50 Bud Lights! Delicious.
My other favorite thing about Lala's is the bus staff. I know what you're thinking; if they clear your table promptly how much better can they get? Well, the bussers at Lala's all keep shims in their pockets and are constantly on the lookout for wobbly tables. What's worse than a wobbly table when you have a full beer? Nothing.
Last night we had a drinking party of four and the bill came to $99.00. Suck that New York City!
