More information on Fred 62

Opened in the heart of trendy Los Feliz by chef Fred Eric, this slightly skewed 24-hour coffee shop comes by its retro kitsch honestly. Eric remodeled the tiny corner diner with spiffy 1950s car-culture icons, including hood-ornament sconces and blue service-station smocks for the waitstaff. He then named it after himself (and his birth year, 1962) and peppered the menu with puns and inside jokes. There's a daily "cream of what Fred wants" soup, plus sandwiches (the smoked salmon is great), burgers, salads, tofu scrambles, and a handful of Asian noodle bowls, including "SEOUL-FULL NOO*DELI," a cryptic name for Korean potato-starch noodles, vegetables, and sesame dressing in hot broth. You might feel like you've stepped into a Route 66 beatnik diner in TV land, but the clientele is very real and the food is comforting (slow service, though). Don't miss the house-made potato chips, "punk tarts," and fresh lemonade dispensed from a churning tank on the counter. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
