Botanica: A cozy Silver Lake dining escape

Silver Lake—It was a Saturday night; I was by my lonesome, and I felt a desire for the tasty quirk of Botanica – which is part market, part bar, part intimate indoor restaurant, part sidewalk cafe…and part hidden garden. As a destination for one, the bar felt affable. I like sitting at counters. I feel as if my code of behavior can shift, and I can eat with my elbows on the bar, not concerned that anyone is watching me chew.

With LA’s Bar Scene in Crisis, Everson Royce Bar Announces Last Call

In late October, Downtown’s Everson Royce Bar announced it would close permanently at the end of 2026. Hundreds of comments on its Instagram page lamented the loss of another fundamental Los Angeles bar. In the 11 years it was open, Everson Royce Bar appealed to casual and knowledgeable drinkers alike, serving as a watering hole for the hospitality industry. Cocktail culture writer Esther Tseng recalls the bar’s impact on the region. “It’s a bar that always had seriously good (but not serious) cocktails,” says Tseng. “It was probably one of the first places I knew Downtown that could accommodate small parties in an intimate bar setting, or larger, casual parties on the patio out back. It had great food, too.”
