In 1962, Johnny Harlowe made the jump from the silver screen to chef and owner of Dear John’s. Convinced by his pal Frank Sinatra, Johnny opened the iconic spot just a ways down from Sony Studios on Culver Blvd. It became the watering-hole for the Hollywood elite with Sinatra often in the corner playing the piano against the dark brick walls once lined with portraits of famous John’s. Seasoned chefs and entrepreneurs Hans Röckenwagner and Josiah Citrin have teamed up to re-open Dear John’s with an updated classic American menu and old-school cocktail list.

It’s my second time at Sol Mexican Cocina. It’s become my favorite stop on the way down to San Diego and Orange County. I’ve had the privilege of having Emmily as our server each time who’s made our experience exceptional. Love the location, ambiance, music, and definitely the food!
