Black Market Liquor Bar

A curved brick ceiling arcs over leather booths and low light on Ventura Boulevard, where Antonia Lofaso has cooked since 2011. The menu holds to small plates: fried cauliflower, deviled quail eggs, shishito peppers, short ribs, seafood. Pablo Moix built the cocktail list. On select Sundays through the summer the room books acoustic sets from 9 to 11, with a late-night happy hour.
