Babita Restaurant

Chef and owner Roberto Berrelleza is proud of his creative, artistic menu and rightly so. He comes out frequently to check on his guests, who enjoy highly personal interaction with this funny, charming man. He told us of several chefs from famous LA eateries who came to try his unique flvors and were quite satisfied. We can see why! We tried a saucy broiled swordfish, and 2 flavors of dense, melt-in-your-mouth flan, so far removed from the usual pale restaurant rendition of this classic that we felt shame for the others! The decor is elegant and tasteful and Roberto makes you feel quite at home. Do try this!

PROS: authentic, unique, delicious flavors, interesting host, good beer list
CONS: Park on the street
