I HEART Abbot Kinney

I’m currently obsessed with this restaurant. I seriously want to try 98% of what’s on the menu here. The pizzas, salads, vegetable dishes, etc… are all SUPER fresh and seasonal and just can’t seem to say no to any of them! Not to mention the butterscotch pudding, DEFINITELY can’t say no to that.

This is some of the best ice cream I’ve had of late in Los Angeles. I believe they make everything in house, so it has that tasty homemade thing going on. The salty caramel flavor is AMAZING— as are all of their fruit flavors.

This place is ridiculously cute-looking and the pastries are ridiculously good. Mascarpone Banana? Chocolate Heaven? YES, please.

This is also on my “to try on Abbot Kinney” list. I am VERY intrigued by the whole brown sushi idea, and I just love the design here— it’s so serenely modern and clean. I would love whoever designed this place to design my home!

This is a GREAT bar. Unless you like to drink liquor (which I don’t, really), in that case don’t come here because this place does not have a liquor license and only serves beer and wine (my vices of choice). They have an awesome selection of beer here (both bottled and on tap), and the last time I was here they had red AND white sangria! I also love the music they play here, even if they do turn up a tad loud.

The Brig is another fine choice for drinking in the Abbot Kinney area— not to mention the Kogi Truck regularly makes appearances here! See below…

Whenever I walk down Abbot Kinney I always see people munching on Abbot’s Pizza and I immediately want some (even if I’m not hungry), it just always looks so good! Bianca and BBQ Chicken—YUM.

I’m a big fan of the Primitvo happy hour. They have a pretty good selection of wine here (and sangria!!), and the food is pretty tasty (get the lamb sliders!)

3 Square is a reincarnation of Rockenwagner (which used to be on Main Street, but has now opened up again of off 3rd Street Promenade). I ate here a while back, and I would come back just for the appetizers and sides. Avocado fries with fire-roasted salsa!!!!

I haven’t been here in ages, but this place was always AMAZING whenever I went. It’s pretty pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for (fresh, seasonal California fare).
