Few tapas places in LA have a genuinely Spanish feel, but the simple room, open kitchen and wood-burning oven help Cobras pull off the illusion. The tasty tapas are served fairly quickly; there's no wine licence, so you'll have to bring your own. Warning: later in the evening, the volume skyrockets and the restaurant becomes a party palace, so make an early booking if you'd like conversation with your food.
