This place features healthier food options and because the owner is of Jamaican descent, they also offer an array of Jamaican patties for every taste, including vegetarians. Their freshly made smoothies are wonderful. My favorite is the "banana whip." On the weekends they have live reggae artists in the patio.

Food scene

Pink's Hot Dogs is a landmark hot dog restaurant in the Fairfax District of the city of Los Angeles on North La Brea Avenue. Typically a line! Pink's was founded by Paul and Betty Pink in 1939 as a pushcart near the corner of La Brea and Melrose.[7] The Great Depression was still having an impact on the country, and money was scarce. People could purchase a chili dog made with Betty's own chili recipe accompanied by mustard and onions on a steamed bun for 10 cents each. As business grew, thanks to Betty's chili and the custom-made Hoffy-brand hot dogs with their natural casings, so did Pink's. The family built the current building in 1946 at 709 North La Brea Avenue in the Fairfax District in West Los Angeles across the street from the Hollywood district in Central Los Angeles.
