This is the eastern-most restaurant in the block east of Vine Street along Sunset Blvd. There are 3 restaurants in a row here and all are within walking distance of the Arclight Cinema (the former Hollywood Pacific Dome Theater). Lots of night-life around here and because it's close to Sunset & Vine, not much in the way of "street people". Bowery & Magnolia, owned by different people, none the less are priced very similarly. Expect to shell out about $30 for a nite-on-the-town. That's dinner and a drink. As for celebrity spotting, that's pretty much hit or miss and if that's your aim, head up Vine Street to nearer Hollywood Blvd., which is less than 1/2 a mile away. Katsuya and Kabuki may be better Hollywood Hangouts. Also, Ivan Kane's Cafe __was (a visual pun - the sign read in broken neon lights - Ivan Kanes's Cafe Always Open) along Vine north of Sunset.

Hollywood's only chicken wing roadhouse style restaurant. Big Wangs is at the corners of Selma Avenue and Cahuenga Blvd. The Rounder can never decide if 'wangs' is a pun-like play on the Chinese name: Wang.
