"Otium isn’t the best restaurant in Downtown LA, but it’s very conveniently located near the stretch of Flower Street where so many legal teams are headquartered (which probably explains why everyone in here dresses like an attorney). This massive, art-filled restaurant by The Broad fills up every night, and while the service is a little spotty - make sure you tell the waiter when you’re ready to order, otherwise, you might never get to - the food is generally good. Get the duck confit pot pie and the fish curry, and be sure to take advantage of their huge wine list." - brant cox, brett keating
