About this restaurant

  • Great for brunch
  • Innovative
A downtown Los Angeles favorite, the Nickel Diner is known as one L.A.'s best diners. It has been featured in Elle Magazine, as well as on the Food Network's hit show Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. The Nickel Diner is regarded as the place to get casual favorties such as onion rings and handmade sandwiches.The Nickel Diner boasts a large menu of fan favorites including chili burgers, French toast, and spicy Italian sausage. It's also the only local place that serves a "hangover helper," a platter of breakfast foods topped with pepper jack cheese and avocado. Nickel Diner also offers a variety of vegetarian and vegan-friendly options made with tofu and beans. Emily, the in-house baker, is popular for making most of the delectable desserts that gave the diner its name including cream-filled cupcakes and jam tarts.
