Cafe Figaro?

We used to love to go to Cafe Figaro in West Hollywood, off of Doheny, and they closed several years ago. Did any of the restauranteurs from there go on to form other restaurants, with any of the same menu items? The bread, salad dressing, etc.? Has it emerged anywhere in a new incarnation? Viva le Chef's Salad and Stragiatella!

i know that the guy who used to own the pace opened a chicken place in westwood. it was called chasin's chicken.i used to work for him at the figaro. also his original partner had a place in long beach called the mustard seed.

Cafe Figaro in Los Feliz is owned by the Champagne Bakery folks out of San Marcos in north San Diego County, with units all over the LA area now.

The bread served at Cafe Fig was Roman Meal. They bought it unsliced and cut it thick themselves.

I kid you not.

There is a Cafe Figaro on Vermont in Los Feliz....not sure if it is the same one, but they do make a mean salad and the french bread is some of the best around. Great cheeses and a fine place to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon sipping wine and getting bread crumbs all over your shirt. Right across the street from the much hounded Il Capriccio, which I highly suggest you check out for dinner- try the black (squid ink) pasta with rock shrimp in the tomato sauce...it is unbeatable....do not fear the color- it's amazing!!!

Alas, we tried the one on Vermont thinking it was maybe a new incarnation of our old fave but it's not. Thanks for the tip on the other one, though
