Entwistle Farms, A Definite Must-Eat!
The cold hard facts are these: people wanna eat at quality, unique restaurants with great food and even greater ambiance. They want to leave said quality establishments with a smile on their face and a few dollars left in their pockets. They want to be able to return at a later date and end up getting the same damn-good experience like the last time they were there.
Enter Entwistle Farms.
Hitting the pavement running just this week, Entwistle Farms is run by none other than Tom Entwistle -- a New York chef whose dreams of opening shop here in Los Angeles were finally realized in Downtown Los Angeles. With unique food creations and the friendliest staff around, getting into Entwistle Farms is already becoming a tough hurdle -- but with a little bit of patience and a lot of persistence, you too can enjoy Entwistle's amazing culinary delights.
Support for LAist comes from
Entwistle, himself, an Italian at heart has fashioned his menu around just that -- his unique Italian creations. Mixing traditional elements like pasta and meats with his unique and fruity hot and cold sauces (can you say melon, strawberry and legume?), Entwistle Farms offers up a wide array of pasta dishes, meat dishes, soups, salads and fishy creations from 5:30pm to 1:00am every evening.
But come the morning, Entwistle Farms embraces the farm culture -- an environment that Entwistle's family immersed him in while living the summer months in Chiusi, Italy. Entwistle has taken some of his favorite dishes and provided them to you, the consumer, starting every day at 7:30am until 3:30pm (they're closed between 3:30pm and 5:30pm to gear up for the dinner rush). Some of the great breakfast fare includes his Chiusi Egg Marmalade (three eggs, bits of chopped up marinated bread and a sweet marmalade sauce), Hot Bread & Egg Pudding (like a soup, but for breakfast) and his trademark Entwistle Scramble (sweet & sour salsa mixed in with eggs, sausage, peppers and croissant flakes).
On the whole, Entwistle Farms is indeed the next best place for your dining experience. Of course, the fact that it's out of the way (Downtown L.A.) and relatively unknown may cause some to scoff at the travel time and the prices (two can eat dinner for about $85.00) -- but when your taste buds have experienced all that is Entwistle, we here at LAist think you'll be happy with the results.
As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
