Every since they opened last year, Fraîche in Culver City is popular. Some people think it's even one of those "it" spots, winning over the unlikely types who have hardcore Eastside pride or are apt to opt out on spending their paycheck for mid to high priced food experiences. Yet, everyone seems to be going to check it out at least once.

And when you do, make sure to check out their excellent cocktails and remember, you most likely will be needing to make a reservation for a table. It's worth it, though -- as LAist Contributor Jacy Young noted last summer, "I knew it was going to be a good night, when we walked out of the thick twilight and into Fraîche and the Arcade Fire was playing."
