Hollywood's oldest restaurant, Musso & Frank Grill, is practically pickled in tobacco and booze from less temperate decades, when F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dashiell Hammett and other disaffected Hollywood writers made Musso's a home away from home. Some of the waiters look as if they go back that far; the youngsters are the ones who have been here only 30 years. While Hollywood business interests are intent on gussying up the famous boulevard with shopping malls, glitzy theaters and restaurants, Musso & Frank carries on much as it has for 84 years.
Musso's is still full of life, frequented by people who have been eating there for decades as well as newly minted hopefuls come to try their luck in Hollywood. So what's new? Nothing under the sun.

Lorenzo made me curious when he wrote twice that Musso's had received a B rating. Was it true? Or did "Lorenzo" have an axe to grind? So I checked and Musso's has received three A ratings in a row from the health department. Look for yourself: http://www.lapublichealth.org/rating/ratedetail.cfm

I have enjoyed musso's for 15 years and a lot of really good times there. Great service at the bar and at the grill. A generous tip or a not so discretely palmed ten dollars will ingratiate you and quickly move you along the ladder of regulars especially if there is a long wait for a table. martinis are the way to go and grilled steak to sober you up. It is a great place to take out of towners for the old time feeling. excellent air conditioning on a hot summer afternoon.
