Little Toni's

The red sauce cuisine at Little Toni's is pretty forgettable, but this North Hollywood haunt is worth a visit just for the narrow cocktail bar off the dining room. The drinks were revamped by a craft cocktail guru years back and remain some of the best in the Valley. Little Toni's famously used to have a Happy Hour special that included a free personal pizza with every drink. That deal is gone, but you can still get a $6 pepperoni pie with your amaro-spiked Manhattan from 4-7pm and 10-11:30pm. The dining room was remodeled in the last decade, but the signage and pebbled glass windows are still charmingly vintage.
