    Fred 62's classic retro vibe is reminiscent of the diners from the 1950s. It's the kind of place where you can grab an old-fashioned milkshake to go along with your breakfast dishes or a burger. Read more

    I love their french fries, which are pipping hot! I ordered the scrambled and hashbrowns with an English muffin. Great servers with friendly personalities. This late night hangout is the place to be!

    This classic spot in Los Feliz is one of the old-time late-night hangouts in the city, with a kooky staff and dark-retro vibe that feels almost too hipster to be true. Read more

    They have the best thai cob salad! * Ask for the dressing on the side! Also their "punk tarts" are bomb!!

    The Bearded Mr. Frenchy is a classic dish to try, but the rest of the food isn't going to blow you away. It's more about the vibe at Fred 62. Read more

    24 hour diner type spot, but with an LA twist on the menu! Chill vibe, lots if healthy (and unhealthy) options, bottled beer and wine...gotta love it :)

    Perfect late night spot for breakfast, especially the pancakes. Love the specials. Actually, a great breakfast spot, anytime of the day or night.

    OUTSIDE SEATING along VERMONT AVE.- Watching the Millions of HUUUUGE ROACHES run'n around at night, on the curb & sidewalk from the man holes & the storm drains, can REALLY Ruin your appetite...

    The menu at Fred 62 is "under construction" - which means they are streamlining their previously over-cluttered menu and focusing on their more popular mainstays! I look forward to the improvements!

    This retro resto was the first LA experience for French actress Elodie Bouchez. She recommends pancakes in the morning sun or the Juicy Lucy burger. Check out her other LA faves at the LV Amble site. Read more

    Punk Tarts! Amazing crust and a flavor for everyone: Apple; Banana/Nutella; or Dark Berries. Yum!

    Since opening in 1997 Fred 62 has become a neighborhood landmark and celeb-spotting hangout. Designer Fred Southerland and chef Fred Eric own and operate the restaurant. They were both born in 1962.

    A great place for breakfast, but stay clear of the Flautas and Fritada. Not at all their best dishes, and left us very unsatisfied. (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

    I'm in love with the hash browns. I always get the Breakfast Enchiladas made with egg whites & splurge 'n' split the dollar pancakes. Oh, and I love their crushed ice. It's the small things.

    Great place to enjoy a dinner with your significant other. The Patty Melt burger is sweeet! If you're near Los Feliz in LA don't hesitate to go to this place.

    I love to eat a hearty breakfast here of flapjacks and bacon, before a full day chopping down trees. Also, there are a lot of keys in the sidewalk. I don't quite grasp the significance.

    Tip- when you order tell them to bring the check asap. Its impossible to get a server over to you and the wait for food is sooooooo long. You''ll want to eat and run.

    Tofu Chilaquiles are to die for! FYI vegans - the guac has sour cream in it (or so I've been told by several waiters.)

    The mashed potatoes, awesome. Mac Daddy 'N' Cheese balls....delish. Great for late for lunch, late night snack and pretty much anytime you are hungry.

    A mini version of the famed "Juicy Lucy" burger is available for those with small appetites—and courage (it's called the "Wimpy Burger").

    Mac Daddy & Cheese Balls are awesome, and the Thai Cobb salad is my favorite in the city. But they need to bring back the "El Dooblay" burger!

    Great outdoor seating. Make sure you're hungry if you order the burger that you're hungry- it's huge.
