République Los Angeles : Restaurant, brunch et café français

Fondé par Margarita et Walter Manzke, ce lieu mêle tradition française et ambiance californienne moderne, offrant une expérience culinaire unique. Depuis ses débuts, République s'est imposé comme une référence pour les amateurs de gastronomie, notamment pour ses brunchs et ses petits déjeuners copieux, alliant authenticité et créativité.
Le restaurant se distingue par ses spécialités françaises revisitées, notamment ses viennoiseries, ses tartes, ses canelés, et ses plats à partager comme le risotto au crabe Dungeness ou le canard aux betteraves.

101 Best restaurants of Los Angeles

"#2 Luxuriating in seasonality is the great cliché of California dining, but Walter and Margarita Manzke have forged their own singularly appealing place in the genre: They’ve perfected the template for the all-day modern American restaurant. Any talk of République should begin with Margarita’s morning pastry counter, a spectacle of laminated doughs, cakes, canelés, crostatas and tarts (for starters) that ranks among the finest in the country. Arrive soon after 8 a.m. opening or miss out on the raspberry-pistachio kouign-amann and the supreme-for-breakfast fruit pies. Lines start early for a morning menu that will gratify pretty much any appetite; favorites include kimchi fried rice with diced short rib, poached eggs and pickled radish, and a blueberry-studded riff on kaiserschmarrn, the fluffy Austrian pancake that veers into souffle territory. Daylight favors République’s spectacularly baroque space, a castle-like complex built by Charlie Chaplin in 1929. At night the restaurant makes an elegant leap from casual daytime meals to formal dinner service. Start by indulging in Normandy butter and pan drippings (imagine a hallucinatory Thanksgiving gravy) served with a baguette. Farmers market salads, restrained pastas and family-style platters (in summertime look for grilled pork loin, belly and sausages offset with roasted peaches) balance subtlety and full-out hedonism. Need it even be said that Margarita's ever-changing desserts are unmissable? Full bar. Valet parking. Credit cards accepted."

"I loved it! Such a cool place in the inside. Charlie Chaplin’s house. So rustic and very cool architecture. If you have more than 6 people you need to book a pre fix dinner. That was a bit complicated since they charge for no shows so luckily we ended up with 6 people and called ahead the same day and they were able to seat us. We got about 6 or 7 dishes and 3 desserts. Plenty of food and it turned out to be like $80 a person. The baguette was delicious. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I’m not a duck person and that dish had great flavor though I didn’t eat too much of it because it was a little too rare for me. Our favorite was probably the pasta that had squash in it. It was really sweet but delicious. And there was another pasta dish that was good as well. They also served us complimentary soup. The basil was very strong on it. The strawberry tiramisu for dessert was light and delicate and not too sweet. The chocolate torte was good too. Also there were some celebrity sitings during our dining. We did this as an after work event dinner. It’s great for that, taking a client, a date or whatever this place is awesome. Def come here! Staff is super nice and very accommodating."

@alisonchauvin35
"Centered in the heart of Los Angeles, the historic building in which it resides was originally erected in 1929 by Charlie Chaplin, and later transformed into the iconic La Brea Bakery and Campanile Restaurant. République builds on this storied past, offering a gastronomic environment imbued with history and grandeur."
@ladyeleanor
"Cadre du restaurant sympa, mais vraiment bruyant, tres cher et pas spécialement bon… mauvais rapport qualité prix "

"Nytimes Walter and Margarita Manzke run several good restaurants here, but République is inseparable from the city and its rhythms — the efficient breakfast meetings, the working lunches, the birthdays and anniversaries and date nights. An important note: The breads and pastries aren’t just for looking at on the way in, and the baguette is excellent, even at dinnertime, when you can and should order it with both butter and pan drippings to start your meal."

"Michelin Guide mention 2024 #4 Best Restaurant by LA Time in 2023 In some ways, this all-day hit feels like a city of its own. With soaring ceilings, beautiful brickwork and sunny skylights, the cavernous space is a beehive of activity. In the morning, freshly baked pastries and breads draw long lines. Come evening, the open kitchen is in full swing, working quickly to serve wave after wave of diners. The tightly curated menu explores the cuisine of Southern Europe through exceptional ingredients, many of them local. Trays loaded with warm potato and leek beignets or toast points stacked with eggs and uni land on almost every table. Baguettes with superb French butter inevitably follow. Dungeness crab risotto, braised wagyu beef cheek and duck with baby beets round out an experience that never fails to satisfy."

"Hancock Park American $$$ Take out Reservation What makes République an unassailable cornerstone of Los Angeles dining? Margarita and Walter Manzke are equally exceptional talents who gave themselves the format — a bakery plus a restaurant serving three meals daily in a spectacularly baroque Hancock Park building — to succeed at what each of them does best. Together they perfected a blueprint for the all-day modern Californian restaurant. First things first: Margarita and her team lay out one of the country’s finest pastry selections. They fill the counter with cakes, sweet and savory pies, canelés, fruit-filled tarts and laminated doughs so finely structured their layers can be stretched like an accordion. It’s a whirl of gracious plenty. Arrive early and round out the morning with a pale omelet, billowing French toast or the signature kimchi fried rice with short rib and poached eggs. Break away from Zoom for a couple of hours at lunch and meet someone for salads and a dry-aged burger. At night the restaurant transitions elegantly to formal dinner service. Start by indulging in Normandy butter and pan drippings (imagine gravy distilled from a thousand roasting pans at Thanksgiving) served with one of Margarita’s baguettes. Walter uses meticulous technique, grounded in French tradition, to both comfort and startle. His gifts are as evident in a farmers market salad with precisely vinegared dressing as they are in the deft snap of grilled spot prawns and the goodness of roasted duck among a fall collage of squash, apples, onions and drizzles of peppery cider jus. Wine director Sarah Clarke has just the right Burgundy in mind. Need it even be said that dessert is all but mandatory?"
@ashigu
"Outstanding baked goods and dinner. If you’re coming for dinner get the pan drippings. You won’t regret it. Brunch was average but if you get a pastry then it’s well worth it."
@jeaton
"Going to brunch at Republique is like indulging in a little slice of Los Angeles history. Located in the heart of the city in a building originally commissioned by Charlie Chaplin (yes, really) in 1929, this spot is a match made in heaven for foodies and cinephiles alike. When it comes to the menu can’t go wrong…unless, of course, you skip on their house-made bread."

"»Place for a Third Date When things are heating up in a new romance, head to Republique, Hancock Park’s delicious, dimly lit French boîte. The popular spot’s shareable plates encourage intimacy, while communal tables and the well-dressed crowd take the pressure off and provide plenty for you and your date to talk about. Plus the seductive cuisine—iced oysters ($4), the sexiest bread and butter ($8) in L.A.—are certain to get you both in the mood. If you have time for dessert (at the restaurant), don’t miss the passion-inspiring basil panna cotta ($13)."

" There’s a lot of really incredible stuff to eat at Republique - like the brown butter agnolotti, the quail with chantarelles, or the duck breast with porridge. And you could order any of it and be happy. But what we really like to do here is sit at the bar, order a couple cocktails, and eat a massive plate of charcuterie. It comes with an entire loaf of bread and salted butter, in addition to mounds of house-cured salami, prosciutto, and mortadella. Will you walk out with swollen fingers from all the salt? Perhaps. But you won’t care, especially after a couple of their fantastic Fig cocktails."
