About
Vandell is a stylish neighbourhood cocktail bar on Hillhurst Avenue in Los Feliz, combining the charm of an old-school drinking den with an ambitious, contemporary cocktail programme. The bar is the creation of acclaimed bartenders Shawn Lickliter and Vay Su, working alongside Michael Francesconi and Matthew Glaser of Park Hospitality.
Named after Vandell Griffith, a former curator of nearby Griffith Park, the bar takes inspiration from its surroundings and Los Angeles' history. Inside, dark wood panelling, leather banquettes, a long soapstone bar and softly lit booths create a welcoming, lived-in atmosphere. Local artwork, including murals depicting Griffith Park, adds further character, while a secluded back room offers a more intimate setting.
Cocktails are the main attraction, with a menu that balances inventive seasonal creations and classics.
