6. Lucky's

It's a steakhouse. If you think that constitutes cuisine and you don't mind spending obscene amounts of money for a la carte sides and embarassing slabs of meat, this is your place. Especially good for a taste of LA/Hollywood excess out for an evening being seen.

Everything about Lucky's was exceptional. Two close friends joined me that night, and they both agree. The abalone was perfect, as was Bob, our host. I have witnessed many incarnations of this building, but the best so far is Lucky's, without question.
