Silver Lake

Nestled within hills and only 10 minutes northwest of Downtown LA, Silver Lake has been known to nurture musicians, independent artists, and writers. The neighborhood is peppered with iconic architecture by mid-century modernists such as John Lautner, Rudolph Schindler and Richard Neutra. The reservoir, although currently being drained, is an oasis within the city for people and nature. Alongside the neighborhood staples, Sunset Boulevard continues to flourish as a springboard for new shops and cafés. Although it's just the tip of the iceberg (there's a different experience here for everyone), here's a roundup of some of our favorite spots.

Alimento has been collecting accolades and making critic lists since it's opening in Summer 2014. The Italian cuisine by Zack Pollack (formerly at Sotto) is clever and grounded, and not the usual Italian fare you know. Reservations fill quickly and walk-ins may have to settle for counter seating. The prized dish is the Tortellini in Brodo and our favorite is the Yellowtail Collar Affumicato.
