From EaterLA: Mostly the spread is a mix of tartines, baked goods, pre-made sandwiches, salads, and sides, but the space itself is rather alluring. Housed in the entrance to a former movie theater with plenty of Gothic touches, the wide room opens up for lines of folks to gawk at the spread. It’s sort of Gjusta-like experience overall, with seating outside. Lasagna cupcakes and Detroit style pizza.

Have not been but nearby on Eagle Rock Blvd. From EaterLA:
A cozy new aperitivo bar is stirring things up along Eagle Rock Boulevard this week. The wide stretch east of the Los Angeles River has ebbed and flowed mightily over the decades as neighborhoods like Eagle Rock, Highland Park, and Glassell Park change and fluctuate, but the boulevard has likely never had something quite as distinct as Capri Club before.
So, what to expect inside Capri Club? Deep red leather booths, an arcing wood bar, and a throwback coastal Italian mural that nods to the former tenant, for starters. Owner Robert Fleming, who has spent years working in wine around Los Angeles as well as the music industry, says that he wanted to nod to the timelessness of the place — first opened in 1963 — so expect some lived-in touches like a worn floor and wood paneling, too. There’s room for three dozen people or so at a clip, plus some sidewalk seating out under the preserved neon blade sign.

From Eater: After countless pop-ups and a solid stint at Smorgasburg, B’ivrit opened in Cypress Park from former film production worker Amit Sidi. Sidi set up a cozy outdoor patio lined with wood planks that resemble a Tel Aviv street food stall. It’s here where she prepares meatless shawarma, vegetable-stuffed pitas or arayes, falafel, and more.
