LIR LA STers, Re: This Wednesday night ST meetup with JackDawson. Let's pin down our meetup location.

So far, I have JackDawson, JD, and myself in on this. Come one, come all, you guys. Let me know!

Location: After doing some research and talking to a friend, I concur with JD's idea:

Bottega Louie on Grand @7th
Italian food
Yelp Price Range $$ (e.g. some entrees are ~$20)
Full Bar
Private parking lot, garage, street, validated
Pictures of the food look really good!

I have looked at other restaurants, and I think this one has the right mix of price, location, services, etc.

My distant second fallback suggestion is to meet at LA Live at Olympic and Figueroa, and simply decide what we want to do when we get there. There are several restaurant/bars options in that location. This would allow the group to be spontaneous.

Another option that I don't want to push off the table yet:

Casey's Irish Pub on Grand at 6th
Yelp Price Range: $$ (dinner is much cheaper than Bottega Louie)
Full Bar
Street parking

Hey, maybe we can go to Casey's after Bottega Louie! Just a thought/option.

My friend also likes T.O.T. in Little Tokyo. Personally, LT is a little too close to Skid Row for my comfort to recommend. Oh, and they only serve beer/wine/sake. The place seems fine otherwise.

I looked into Seven, and they seem to serve only appetizers. No entrees on their food list.
