Despite their protests, our entire crew had lunch here today. This is a very nicely appointed restaurant. The service is exemplary. It's just unfortunate that the food, for the price point, or even far below their price point, is terrible. Had I paid $3.00 for their philly cheese steak sandwich, I would have been merely disappointed, but to cough up $12 and get about 2 oz. of beef and a sprinkling of cheese over a simple amuse bouche of peppers and onions is patently offensive. Our driver requested fresh ground pepper for his chicken caesar salad, for the reason, he later told me, that that was the only thing he could think of that would give it any flavor. Our decorator's turkey club contained dried-up husks of meat that purported to be turkey (she liked the bacon and avocado, which was the only portion of the sandwich she ate). Their thin crust pizza was inexplicably soggy (my sandwich was so un-satisfying as an entree that I sampled whatever anyone else didn't want to eat), and their onion ring side (5 rings) was soggy and gummy. I can only hope that this place either goes belly-up, and someone worthwhile in the kitchen takes over, or their current chef gets the message and starts producing palatable food. The bar looks nice, and I might stop in for happy hour, because I doubt they could screw up bottled beer. No bets on mixed drinks (go for the mojitos at Broadway Bar:FANTASTIC!)

Was a sharp contrast to Tranquility Base's brunch which is expensive, unexceptional and with terrible service. back to 6th street cafe- i talked to the manager and he explained that they have happy hour every evening (which they'll need to get people all the way out there): Margarita Monday Taco Tuesday Free pizza when you order a pitcher Wednesday Martini Thursdays forgot what Fridays are I would highly recommend their breakfast. Can't wait to check out happy hour.

Great place with good food at very reasonable prices. I'll have to bring my boys back to catch a couple games at the place. We'll be back for sure. I just had breakfast there this morning.

And im downtown LA adjacent by like 8 miles south east ..lol (thats what i tell myself anyways). So the hours Nik stated above are the correct ones?
