"Even if you’re someone who doesn’t “get” jazz, give The Baked Potato a shot. This divey, one-room bar in Studio City is one of the strangest and most delightful places to witness a live quartet. It’s an all-ages affair full of couples on dates, burly dudes who have been coming here for 50 years, and Gen Z teens getting their minds blown by the power of musical improvisation. As the name suggests, their menu is composed almost entirely of baked potatoes. There are 24 total varieties, and you should order one—even if it’s just to take a picture of how big it is. Be sure to buy show tickets in advance. " - brant cox, sylvio martins
