Before Philippe's, there was Cole's, the original French Dip. Come here for happy hour and you can enjoy a French dip sandwich at a good price. Random fact: They filmed Mad Men here.

This place is in the outskirts of DTLA but worth a visit. It's the best cup of coffee you can get. Don't expect syrups or frappuccinos. This place is serious about their coffee.

Beautiful restaurant with high ceilings, large windows, and elegant details. Sit down in the main dining room or in the cafe. The macaroons are worth a try and the pastry counter is drool-worthy.
