Movie and Dinner- age old question...

I think I like him...I think he likes me...we both LOVE food...west side (Hollywood to the beach) we are game...where should we go. We need to be abe to hol a conversation, so someplace that is not tooo loud. Money not an issue...but it is a casual evening, with the movie preceeding dinner.

    One westside option: check out a movie at the new Landmark flagship theater at Pico and Westwood and then walk next door to Torafuku. You should be able to hold a conversation with no problem there and you have the chance to check out the assigned seating at the Landmark (or cozy up on a couch in their smaller theaters!).

    The only possible problem with my plan is that Torafuku is not a late night place--I think it closes at 10 on weeknights and maybe 10:30 on weekends???--so it would have to be an earlier movie.

      Park at the Arclight. walk to Los Balcones Del Peru. Its peruvian food. SSSOOOO Good. Its on the corner of Vine & De Longpre. Stuff yourselves silly and then walk back to Arclight theatres to see a good movie. Hope this helps. Have fun lovebirds.

        This is exactly what I was about to post! Other option is to eat at Hungry Cat, and then walk back.
