Plan Check: Modern American Cusine.

Plan Check Kitchen + Bar has several neighborhood restaurants located in Los Angeles, serving modern American comfort food in small plate format together with unique cocktails, premium whiskeys and craft beers.

The Plan Check name and branding derives from its first location, adjacent to the Building and Safety Department, where hundreds of Architects, Developers, Designers and Engineers congregate daily to review licensing plans.

It embodies the architectural/creative lifestyle and culture that surrounds it, effortlessly blending vintage architectural office elements with industrial cuts, rich materials and a warm atmosphere.

With a new location opening in Downtown Los Angeles, the editors at SOCIAL could not pass up the opportunity to visit one of Los Angeles’ hottest hot spots.

We decided to take a look at their Happy Hour and were pleasantly surprised by the undeniable fact that we had what felt like a full course plus cocktails at Happy Hour prices. Best known for their on-tap S&L Old Fashioned ($6), Plan Check have created their own special cocktail “on request” that’s some of the best we have had in town. With a relaxed atmosphere, TVs for games and a terrace with city views Plan Check is a must-visit for locals and tourists alike. Our editor’s favorites include:

$5 Mushroom Stuffing:

Grilled Portobello, Swiss Cheese Fondue,

Crispy Kale, Grilled Garlic Steak Sauce

French fries $6.66:

Schmaltz Onions, Bacon Spread, Americanized Cheese
