Restaurants near Lincoln Heights

“Okay so this place was at one point a bikini bar (and maybe still is?), but was recently taken over by the chef from Il Pastaio. The food is certainly better than one should reasonably expect from a dive bar, although you have to ask for the old menu if you want risotto with scallops, housemade tagliatelli, etc. Personally I find the combination of a white tablecloth and neon lights adds a frisson of dynamic tension to my meal, ymmv”

“FOOD WAS AMAZING!! HAD A BLAST W/FAMILY FROM THE LATIN LEGEND BOAT CRUISE 2.0!! 🚢 SERVICE WAS GREAT N FAST!! I DEFINITELY BE BACK! #CORONA”

“Best ice cream also parking is good in the back a very large parking area. You should order the banana split it let’s you choose the flavors! 😂don’t forget to scan the QR code to get one free Esquite corn”

“Menudo was on point. You can tell that they used the whole tripe, you also get a knee bone. This menudo didn't come out of a can that they sell at a Costco Business center. Most menudos come out of a can that they sell at Costco Business centers.

Getting there was easy on public transit. About 0.8 miles from the A line station on Cypress.

Service was great and staff were friendly.”

“The food was definitely yummy and reminiscent of barbacoa stands in CDMX (where I lived for 2 years). However the prices were not listed. I ordered 2 tacos, consomé, and coffee. $20 for all 4 - it is a nice price but seems steep for just tacos.”

“There food is yummy I love going to eat with my family”

“It was a nice culinary experience. I like to try different things when I travel. This is not what I would have picked, but then again I had the cashier pick it for me. Genuinely enjoyable chicken/beef bowl and the vegetables we a good pairing with the dish - not something I would normally order, but enjoyable.”

“Best Seafood Restaurant in LA”

“Someone recommended this restaurant for me and I was really impressed, it’s a small cozy restaurant but the food was really great and the service was very good. Everything we ordered was really delicious. I highly recommend it.”

“Amazing takeout family meal which features the most flavorful and delicious Char Siu Wagyu Short Rib with fluffy bao. All side dishes are well executed and delectable. One of the best staying at home meals I’ve had! Highly recommend it!”

“One of the most amazing meals I’ve had.”

“Delicious ice cream, with top quality ingredients! Sizes are bigger than other nearby shops and it even includes toppings!”

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?”

“No doubt this is among the best fried chicken in LA!!”

“Excellents croissant français.”

“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.”

“Ordered the off-menu Pomodoro pasta and it did not disappoint. The tomato and petit basil sauce was bright, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The wax beans were a standout - snappy and bright with serrano chile, toasted hazelnuts, and a tangy Frenchie vinaigrette. The garden lettuces were crisp and well dressed with radish vinaigrette, fresh dill, walnuts, and shallots. Good vibe, happy staff, great mix of flavors. The orange wine pairing tied it all together. Highly recommend Updated from previous review on 2026-03-29”

“Kantutan to the max🤣🤣 see photo”

“So good!! We ordered the squash blossom quesadilla and the taco Sonia. They were both really good. The tortillas are especially delicious. We also got the strawberry hibiscus agua Fresca and holy crap.. might be the best drink I’ve ever had 😋”

“Ended up here accidentally on a layover: Hands down, the best ramen I’ve ever had (springy, slurpy perfection), amazing cocktails (if you like gin the Japanese 75 is a must try!), and whatever the whipped cream, creme brûlée’d banana dessert was tasted like heaven. I even ordered another tonkotsu ramen to go (all the way to Florida) to bring back to my fiancé. They separated all of it, packaged it so it wouldn’t leak, and wrote directions on specific timing for heating up each item! Very impressive service. I’ll be back again!”

“The pizza was to die for — we had the margarita pizza — thin crust and sauce delicious. We had the artichoke burrata appetizer which was delicious too. The area where the restaurant is located is very cool. Enjoyable all the way around.”

“Great atmosphere in Barra Santos. Decor is on point and the food is great. We had great service from a bartender called Andrew, who made us great drinks and took care of our group really well. Would recommend!”

“Excellent deep dish style pizza.”

“Was awesome to find a restaurant with my two favorites…GF and Southern!”

“the vibes were perfect. music was awesome. service was absolutely top notch. i just: the steak frite. it tasted fishy. at first i thought it was that the little dollop they provide had some element of fish sauce or roe. but i don’t think that was intentional. fish on the pan/grill? the steak itself was nicely prepared but i found it hard to cut, perhaps due to the type of steak. no expert ! but it didn’t hit. for the price point, it was super tasty and filling and delicious, but it wasn’t what i pictured or exactly wanted. staff, again, were amazing; food, less than; drinks and wine and digestif, incredible. come for the drinks ! the steak frite, skippable.”

“I highly recommend this restaurant. Great food and great service.”

“Visiting LA this week and had a fab time at the Clark Street Diner, excellent food😋”
