Thinking of moving to LA? Artists, actors, musicians, and families flock to the east-side neighborhood of Los Feliz. The name literally translates to “happy,” and this quaint, creative area more than lives up to its name. Los Feliz is chic, sophisticated, and artsy, with streets full of bookstores, record stores, galleries, and sidewalk cafes.
Located just south of the Santa Monica Mountains and adjacent to Hollywood, Los Feliz is a hillside neighborhood close to Griffith Park, the LA Zoo, and the Greek Theatre. You can find luxury homes with incredible views and amazing resale value in this popular area.
Things to do
Griffith Park is one of the main attractions in Los Feliz. The 4300-acre natural abyss includes wooded trails, museums, and picnic areas—and the occasional coyote sighting. The Griffith Observatory is nearby, where you can gaze at the stars in the planetarium. There are two old-school movie theaters, the Vista, a single screen theater that shows movies on film, and the Vintage Los Feliz 3. Take a tour through a Frank Lloyd Wright home, check out a show at the Impro Theatre, visit the Barnsdall Art Park, or take advantage of the dozens of other offerings of Los Feliz.
Nightlife and dining
From classic dive bars to chic clubs, Los Feliz is perfect for the night owl. Bar Covell is well-known for its extensive wine list and the Drawing Room is a quiet, casual bar. Tiki Ti and El Chavo are other popular hotspots. The Dresden Room is a Hollywood favorite with fantastic food and strong drinks. Stop by Yuca’s for flavorful Mexican fare. Locals love Messhall’s Kitchen and Little Doms’s as well.
Shopping
Los Feliz is not the kind of place burdened by large chains and big box stores. Here, you’ll find hundreds of locally owned shops with one-of-kind finds. There are record stores, comic book shops, bookstores, and funky clothing shops. Otherwild Goods and Services is a top pick for home goods, while Spitfire Girl is great for creative gifts.
