Craig's

"Craig’s needs no introduction, but in the event you’re new to LA or Earth, this Weho spot is one of the biggest celebrity restaurants in the city, and a place where movie deals and marriages are broken nightly. It can be a fun place to eat, but no one should arrive expecting great food—save for the table bread. Craig’s version is buttery, cheesy, and just a little sweet (you can thank the honey for that.) It’s so good you don’t need any butter or dips. Normally, we’d offer up a caution of not eating too much of it before the entrees arrive, but at Craig’s, go all out—it’s the best thing you’ll eat all night. " - brant cox

"If you took the most generic restaurant in Downtown Disney, filled it with A-listers, and served American food that hasn’t been seen since a cruise to Myrtle Beach in 1998, you’d get Craig’s. This seminal “hotspot” is arguably the most celebrity-packed place in the city, and yet, a meal here has the energy of an accounting convention. No one’s talking, no one’s even faking enjoyment—it’s just a handful of executives picking at spaghetti squash and chicken piccata hoping their ex’s lawyer doesn’t walk through the door. The best thing here is the free table bread, which is useless in a crowd that’d rather knowingly contract shingles than touch a carbohydrate." - brant cox

"Craig's is definitely a place where I take people when they come from Colombia and they want to feel the Hollywood vibe and they want to see celebrities and they want to see the paparazzi. The food is not the kind of food that I want to eat like every single day, but I love it."—SV "The trick is just to order it for delivery. That's how you navigate the paparazzi at Craig's. Their bread is phenomenal. What I like the most is that they have a large vegan selection, which is surprising. They have vegan pizzas, they have vegan pastas, they've got vegan ice cream. I'm lactose intolerant and I'm allergic to eggs. So sometimes if I want a pizza, Craig's is the place that will give me what I need."—MV" - brennan carley

"Craig’s will always be an ‘it’ spot for celebrity sightings. The dim main dining room acts as a haven for low-key dinners between some of the city’s elite TV and film actors, as well as musicians and the connected Hollywood insiders who love the upscale casual American fare." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff

"Podcaster Jason Stewart gives a personal, highly entertaining view on celebrity restaurant Craig’s, operated by former Dan Tana’s maitre’d Craig Susser." - Matthew Kang
