Manchego

On our list of the best cozy restaurants in Los Angeles.

This corner of Main Street has served California-Spanish tapas since 2007, with a wine list built from small-production Spanish producers. The dining room is tiny and kept dark, lit by candles against blue-tiled walls, while a back garden seats up to 25 people for private events. Order the crispy mushroom croquettes and pork belly with quince jam, and settle in with a generous pour of rioja. Weekend brunch comes with bottomless mimosas and housemade sangria.
