After decades of urban decay, Downtown Los Angeles is in the middle of a long, slow renaissance. Now, one of the city’s most historic dining institutions has been restored to its former glory.
In its 1940s pomp, Clifton’s served some 15,000 customers every day. Over the years, regulars included filmmakers such as Ray Harryhausen and David Lynch, and writers as varied as Ray Bradbury, Jack Kerouac and L Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology. It was used as a location in multiple movies and TV shows, not least Mad Men.
