Fodor's Expert Review Gold Dust Meridian
Southeast
On warm evenings, break from the chatter-filled midcentury-modern interior bar—with its teakwood ceiling and deep-booth seating—and snag a sidewalk table, where you can take in the activity of funky Hawthorne Boulevard. This place packs 'em in early, thanks to a generous happy hour that begins daily at 2 and continues until 8 pm—more than enough time to get happy. Wash down a few discounted craft cocktails with an order of steamed clams in lemongrass-coconut broth or marionberry-habanero chicken wings.
