Lifelong friends Natasha Price (chef) and Tatiana Ettensberger (wine) set out to build the kind of place where you could settle in for a long chat, a glass of \u201csomething good,\u201d and food that\u2019s filling and pleasantly low-maintenance. The dining room is small, wood-paneled, and softly lit; the service feels warm in a way that\u2019s increasingly rare in Los Angeles. The whole place already hums with neighborhood-haunt energy despite its newness. It\u2019s a welcome break from the ring-light-influencer parts of Los Angeles\u2019s dining scene \u2014 somewhere you can sip a funky orange wine, eat headcheese, and briefly pretend you\u2019re an ocean away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph n2hx75i _1knl15h1 _1knl15h0 cej01i1\">A wine-fueled dinner with your friend where you can catch up and actually hear each other; an evening of escapism from Los Angeles\u2019s bright-lights vibes; a second date that calls for a romantic, unpretentious setting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph n2hx75i _1knl15h1 _1knl15h0 cej01i1\">Even showing up before the 5:30 p.m. opening can mean a wait of two hours or more. Luckily, you\u2019re right across from Ye Rustic Inn, the divey neighborhood standby (and <a href=\"https:\/\/la.eater.com\/venue\/33474\/ye-rustic-inn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">temple of chicken wings<\/a>), where you can ride out the wait with a beer or cocktail (Wilde\u2019s is beer-and-wine only). The restaurant just began to roll out a daytime caf\u00e9 menu, which means pastries, sausage rolls, and more opportunities for seating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wilde\u2019s \u2014 the intimate new British-inspired spot in Los Feliz \u2014 might be the closest thing Los Angeles&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":51996,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[28829,48,52,51,47,50,49],"class_list":{"0":"post-70964","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-dining-reports","9":"tag-la","10":"tag-la-headlines","11":"tag-la-news","12":"tag-los-angeles","13":"tag-los-angeles-headlines","14":"tag-los-angeles-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70964","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70964"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70964\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51996"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70964"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70964"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70964"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
