Sunset Ranch Hollywood

"For reasons you probably already know about, reservations at Horses are easier to come by than they used to be. But the truth is you never needed one in the first place. Show up to this sceney American restaurant in Hollywood around 9pm, and there's a likely chance you'll snag a seat at the bar. Not only do the bartenders make a fantastic martini, but they double as full-fledged hosts who actually want to hang out with you. There’s no awkwardness or feeling that you’re taking up precious bar space. These bartenders bring the fun chit-chat, ask you if you need a fresh bottle of Heinz with your fries, and keep the drinks coming until they close up at 1am. Forget post-dinner drinks, this is a bar to spend the night at." - nikko duren, sylvio martins, brant cox

"Yes, that Horses. This French-American bistro on Sunset was once the subject of one of the more shocking restaurant controversies in recent history, and if you don’t know what we’re talking about, just Google “horses + cat” (you won’t find cute animal pictures.) Post-drama though, the place is still quite good, and unlike a few years ago, you can actually get in. The dining room buzzes nightly past last call, and if you don’t have time for a full meal, walk into the bar around 9pm. The full menu is available (get the cheeseburger and fries), the drinks arrive quickly, and as the restaurant winds down—and the bartenders become less busy—juicy conversations tend to unfold.

"The Order: Horses Caesar We’ve encountered many (maybe too many) endive caesars over the years, but none are as satisfying as the one at Horses. This sceney Hollywood spot serves the leaves whole, a crucial detail. The endive scoops up the toasty breadcrumbs, anchovy-forward dressing, and parmesan confetti dust like precious canoes, evenly coating each bitter leaf. It’s the kind of punchy, salty thing you want to enjoy with an ice-cold martini, which Horses does very well." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
