Jones in Hollywood isn't too far from the Pantages. It's an excellent Italian-type place with reasonable prices. Reservations are a must and it works best if you have your concierge make the reservation for you. We did this from the W LA and the conceirge arranged for a free bottle of wine for us.

we learned on our arrival when we asked the concierge to call that JONES doesn't take reservations for earlier than 7 PM - I am guesssing that they don;t particularly want the pre theater crowd.

We wound up at CIUDAD which is an EXCELLENT new wave cuban restaurant (that's the only way I can explain it) ...amazing food and friendly hop service.

Yep, Jones is not for pre-theatre. I'd recommend going there at 8:30 or so. But I'll have to try Ciudad. It sounds great.

Just to close the loop - we did go to Laurel and had an AMAZING dinner - gnocchi, chicken,VENISON steak, rich and beautiful desserts and wonderful service. It was worth the trip!! Not how we eat all the time thank goodness or we'd be too big to fit in the door - but a wonderful splurge . Thanks to SanDiego1K and and rfrost for the recommendation!!

Thanks for the follow-up, letting us know you enjoyed the restaurant. And I hope that your friend's play was received well at the Rep!
