LA’S TOP RESTAURANTS OF 2009

Citysearch’s Mar Yvette reviews her editorial picks for L.A.’s best new restaurants in 2009, with Bottega Louie rounding out the top four:

“Much like the lofts that are popping up all over the Downtown L.A. landscape, this expansive and unpartitioned Italian commissary and gourmet market transports you back to the future when this part of town is once again thriving. The enormous exhibition kitchen cranks out everything from pizza, pasta and salads to parchment-wrapped salmon to the already legendary portobello fries. And don’t forget the bakery/shop, which opens every day at 6:30am. Splendid.”
