Visit the cutting edge of LA's art scene. Small galleries and studios along with an excellent culinary scene prove why this is a perfect place for your visit. I recommend Ubering or driving to skip any walking through Skid Row as tents can often take up the side walks.

Warning: A shameless pleasure of DTLA cuisine, this place features fried chicken sandwich and fresh donuts in flavors you're unlikely to find elsewhere. And it 2 blocks away. Dangerous.

Upstairs is the rooftop bar of the Ace Theater. Great music and drinks come along with a great view. Best part, is that you can literally see our place (next door) from the bar.

Walking DTLA at night

Overall DTLA is safe. But as with any large city, I encourage vigilance as rowdy tourists may attract unwanted attention. Since we in close proximity to Skid Row, please keep track of all personal belonging as you travel from place to place. Nothing puts a damper on a trip like a lost wallet. Also, well-lit streets are best in the company of other groups. DTLA has a special non-emergency task-force that assist 24-7. If there is an emergency call 911.
