The Grove: Where Food Dreams Come True (Or At Least, Don't Become Nightmares)
So, you're in LA, huh? Fancy pants. And you're wondering where to eat at The Grove? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because we're about to embark on a culinary journey that's more exciting than a Kardashian's closet.
The Grove: It's Not Just For Window Shoppers
Let's be real, The Grove is basically a giant, open-air mall with a really good people-watching scene. But don't let that fool you. Hidden amongst the shops and the overpriced sunglasses are some seriously delicious eats.
For the Fancy Pants
If you're feeling bougie and want to impress your date (or yourself), then La Piazza is your spot. It's like Italy had a love child with California, and the result is a menu that's as pretty as the view. Just be prepared to drop some serious dough.
For the Casual Cool Kids
Chill Since '93 is the place to be if you're looking for something a bit more laid-back. They've got everything from pizza to pasta to salads, and their iced coffee is the stuff legends are made of. Plus, their name is awesome.
For a Taste of Mexico
Craving some tacos? Then head over to Alma. Their menu is packed with flavor, and the margaritas are strong enough to make a mariachi band jealous. Just be warned, their chips and salsa are so good, you might accidentally eat the entire basket before your meal arrives.
Tips for Surviving The Grove Food Scene
- Pace yourself. There are so many delicious options, it's easy to go overboard. Trust me, your stomach will thank you later.
- Don't be afraid to share. Most places offer generous portions, so don't be shy about splitting a dish with a friend.
- Save room for dessert. Because let's be honest, no meal is complete without something sweet.
