La Fe

Great local energy. Owner Jaime Turrey was the creative behind the legendary Ostrich Farm, formerly in the same space, and all the feels that OF carried with it exist here, but modified by the casual, crash into a deep corner sofa feels that Bar Calo (also a Jaime creation) brought with it. Plenty of mood, an inspired menu with meals and snacks, and a LOCAL feeling. This is a small business, not some corporate investment strategy like a lot of the other places popping up in the area. And I'm all about supporting.I've been by on a few nights lately and it's always a proper vibey scene. Not too busy but elevated and updated.Also they open at 10am and do breakfast and lunch...I'm going to go try soon.

Stopped at Le Fe Saturday morning as they now are open 7am for coffee and breakfast items. If you know the area specifically that block you know it is not common to find breakfast items so this was nice. Ordered the everything bagel with fried egg- don't recall the name but it had crumbled fresh cheese, avocado and green herbs. The bagel was a good size. The service was and is always 10/10. I have stopped by before for a night cap cocktail, I was so hungry that night fortunately they had fries I would recommend for cocktails and weekend AM breakfast & coffee.Daytime has a nice natural lighting with a cozy vibe, in the evening it is very dim but for sure recommend for a date night or any intimate small gathering.

Beautiful bar with a great atmosphere, a perfectly made Old Fashioned, and friendly staff--I have no complaints at all. The only reason I hesitate to leave a review is that I'd love to keep this place my hidden gem... that's how much I enjoyed it! I haven't had the chance to try the food yet, but I'll definitely be coming back soon.

Escape to the heart of Echo Park and indulge in the vibrant energy of La Fe - where handcrafted cocktails meet a cozy ambiance, creating the perfect backdrop.We ordered the Earth Angel (sake, sherry, pineapple & coriander shrub, lemon) and High Lonesome (mezcal, sage, honey, lemon) Not featured are the other two drinks we ordered Dimples (blanca tequila, aloe vera liquor, cucumber, lime, yerba sante) and Body & Soul (reposado tequila, blackstrap rum, espresso [that's that me, espresso ], coconut, and black sesame. If you're a black sesame fan, ORDER THIS!Seating is first come, first serve. Our drinks did take a while to arrive.

Service on a Sunday night was sweet and nice. The drinks are good and heavy handed but yet give a good balance. It's a very nice casual place for a drink, would 100% come back again.

This review is for Nawal, the Syrian food that is served inside La Fe. I swear I saw an IG reel of them serving food out of a window, but that may have changed/too much time passed since the video recording and time of visit. The seating is very comfortable, almost too comfortable. There was this couple lounging in the corner and watching their dog roam around inside. The menu was confusing because it's just a QR code. There are no photos to see what kind of food it was. We had to ask the server soo many questions. Ngl the La Fe server was annoyed that we wanted mostly the food. We ended up ordering a couple cocktails just to make her happy.We decided all the food was good. Cocktails were ok. I'd be back for the vibes.

We recently found this little gem in Echo Park! The atmosphere is really cute, it's like you're at your friends living room with jazz playing in the background. I've been looking for a brunch place with such great atmosphere. The food was really good, it had some Eastern European flavor to it which we loved. Syrniki desert was top notch! They also have great service.All in all 10 out of 10! Definitely recommend!

Newer cocktail spot across from low boy and the others on sunset. I walked in and said wow this looks just like the old Bar Calo vibes...turns out it's the same owner!The bartender Frank fired up some martinis and a dreamy boy...I came for one, and ended up having 3. They are dangerously good. Shaken with a ton of ice, you do NOT taste the alcohol. Super delicious and went down quick.Frank made me laugh and was too fun to deal with. Quite honestly ; this spot will blow up as one of the best cocktail spots within the mile radius...sorry, it's that good. I usually complain about prices but the vibe and taste were too good, it was worth every penny.

I had a very pleasant experience at La Fe. Excellent service and cool vibes. The entire experience from the moment I walked in, was fantastic.

Omgggg the vibe in here is dopeeeee, but I need answers as to where they bought their couch bc I swear it's the softest most comfiest one I've ever sat on!!! Plsss @ the owner I need to know! Sitting here after bar hopping on sunset is dangerous cause I swear I just wanted to hug the pillow and call it a night right there, like the pillows were huge body pillow things ughhhh imma have to go back just for this
