3-6 pm for a free tea or soda... Lamest special ever... Step it up 101
best shakes around! get the nut 'n honey, and give their mac 'n cheese a try. IT'S AMAZING.
It's all about the blackened chicken sandwich or the eggwhite scrambled. Acertain you have the mixed sweet potato fries!
F.J. LennonApril 1, 2011Favorite of Kane Pryce, protagonist of the novels Soul Trapper and Devil's Gate.
Thomas ColtonJune 4, 2015Normal portions of solid diner food. If you want to really eat, hit up a Norm's. Still, this place is great for people watching, breakfast desserts, and just a little bit of cool Hollywood history.
The nut and honey shake is soooo good! It tastes like Reece's Pieces
Fu PaulladaMarch 23, 2012Nothing beats that Portobello Mushroom Sandwich. I used to drive 100 miles just to eat that.
Michele WellsFebruary 18, 2013"Currently closed"? No. It's 1:22am on Sunday/Monday and I assure you, it's open.
Joshua SmithMay 16, 2010The BLT is no frills and the best in the city and the soyrizo and eggs is ridonculous.
Meatloaf. Eat it! I hate meatloaf but the 101's is awesome.
eating or not it just feels good in here - it's loud as hell too, like an indoor swimming pool but damn do i like it in here.
Order the Eggs Benedict on the weekends before 3pm. Substitute the ham with bacon. Best dish here.
Swingers was filmed here, and ironically not at "Swingers" on Melrose.
The mac and cheese is AMAZING... And I'm hella picky about my mac and cheese
I add fresh jalapeños to most things. Try some on grilled cheese or in an omelette!
Allison AndersAugust 15, 2010the no huevos rancheros rules and the best mac and cheese on the west coast
