Good Selection of Tasty Tapas
Ciudad is a great tapas bar and bar to try whenever you are in downtown LA for work or fun. First of all, the bar is great; second, the food is fantastic. Try to come with some friends so that you have a good excuse to sample a lot of the tapas--you'll do it anyway. Lately, the Portuguese sausage with honey and deviled eggs are my favorite tapas. Desserts are amazing, too. The service has always been good and I have never had a bad meal. I would make reservations to be on the safe side if you are showing up during the prime dinner hours/days. Prices are moderately expensive but worth it--and their wines are great, too.

Ciudad, Spanish for city, is the brainchild of restaurateurs-turned-celebrity-chefs Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken, formerly The Food Network's 'Too Hot Tamales.' Over the years they've holed themselves up in kitchens around the world for a hands-on education in Latin cuisine, and Ciudad is the downtown showroom for the lessons they've learned along the way. A bit more mature than their sister ...

Ordering a selection of appetizers is the way to go here.

The Scene Walls and ceilings are splashed with Miro-like splotches and Picasso-esque scribblings. The playful decor is quirky enough that hipsters won't feel guilty about using their gold cards, yet trendy enough to entice suburban foodies to come downtown. The Food Diners embark on a giddy tour of Latin cuisine. Appetizers are the most seductive--pliant slices of sushi ...

When it comes to food, most people are naturally conservative. They like what they grew up with. Italians get nervous if they miss pasta more than three days in a row, and while they relish pepperoncino in their penne arabbiata , they're wary of the heat in Thai dishes. Indians get homesick for naan and their mother's chutneys, Cubans for ropa vieja and media noche sandwiches. On one of my ...

The Mojitos were perfect and the tequila with mulled limes was unbelievable. Great Bar.!!! The ambiance was interestingly hip without be off-putting or fakely sophisticated. "Little plates" of Thai ...

I know that have a deal for dinner too, but Im not sure on the exact price. I had the Spinach Empanadas, Pollo Ciudad, and Barcelona Chocolate Cake needless to say I was in a food coma for the rest of the work day, but it was well worth it.
