Check Out These 6 Hancock Park Restaurants

May 9, 2022

Hancock Park is an affluent and sophisticated residential area with its own unique charm. The neighborhood was developed in 1920, but since then, the town has preserved its original state, regardless of being one of the oldest neighborhoods in Los Angeles.
 
If you live in Hancock Park or are exploring this place this weekend, add Hancock Park dining to your to-do list.  A trip to a new place is incomplete without some good food, and these six Hancock Park restaurants will make sure you don’t have regrets!

Great White Restaurant


This fantastic restaurant is a new addition to Hancock Park. Located on Larchmont Boulevard near Hancock Park, Great White Restaurant offers quaint charm with some beautiful homes in the neighborhood that you can explore while enjoying some great dishes at this popular dining spot. Eating here reminds me of when I lived in Melbourne Australia, nearly ten years ago. Great White Restaurant is a Venice Beach original that I’m grateful has traveled east!
 
You will find everything your heart desires at Great White Restaurant, from wood oven pizzas to avocado toasts. If you’re visiting during breakfast, dishes such as banana bread, poached egg on toast, breakfast burrito, and chickpea scramble are worth a try.
 
Other than that, the restaurant offers some tremendous main dishes, such as:

  • Kale pesto pasta
  • Steak and frites
  • Honey ginger chicken
  • And some delicious sandwiches, tacos, and wraps
You’ll find yourself in heaven at the Great White Restaurant if you're a pizza-lover. From truffle fungi to diavola, you’ll be spoiled with choices!
 
The lime panna cotta, chocolate caramel crunch, and sticky date pudding are worth every dollar you spend to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Le Petit Greek


Are you craving authentic Greek food while exploring Hancock Park history during the weekend? Why not visit Le Petit Greek? This place has been a part of Hancock Park for many years, and its food quality and customer service have always been excellent.
 
At Le Petit Greek, you can find dozens of lunch, dinner, and dessert options to satisfy your taste buds. Order the soup of the day or a flatbread pizza for lunch. Featured dinner options include Odyssean, avgolemono, and halloumi.
 
Of course, you can never go wrong with hummus and pita, but my personal favorite at any Greek restaurant is the Moussaka — a casserole of eggplant, zucchini, potatoes, and ground beef, topped with a Bechamel sauce. Divine!
 
Le Petit Greek also offers family meals and provides the facility of ordering online. You can also choose a delivery or pickup option to enjoy your food in the comfort of your new Hancock Park residence.

Osteria La Buca


Los Angeles is home to many fantastic Italian restaurants, and among them, Osteria La Buca is worth your time and money. This place offers both dine-in and take-out, which is a plus for anyone looking to enjoy the best dishes without leaving their Hancock Park luxury home. Candidly, we usually order take-out from here (thanks Covid), and the food always travels very well especially the pasta!
 
So, what’s on the menu? This restaurant will take your tastebuds to Italy without paying for an expensive flight ticket, from divine starters to pizzas and meat dishes. If you’re a pasta person, you can choose between Nero Spaghetti and Tagliatelle. The Scarpinocc pasta is also an excellent choice for butternut squash fans.

One of the best things about Osteria La Buca is that it doesn’t disappoint with unique wines and cocktails. If you love seasonal drinks, the variety is enormous and fulfilling. Similarly, from red to white and bubble wine, you will easily find a perfect drink to complement your main dish.
