Hollywood and Highland is not exactly known as a gastronomic destination, but that’s changing with the addition of the new Rolling Stone restaurant and bar, and now, Boho, which just made the move over from its previous location next to the ArcLight on Sunset.
For those who remember Wolfgang Puck’s Vert, that’s the spot that Boho now occupies, right next to the Daily Grill on the fourth floor. One of my peeves with the center is there is very poor line of sight in finding your location, and this is exactly what will happen if you’ve not been to the spot before.
But you’ll find it, and you’ll be rewarded with woodfired pizzas as good as Puck used to make– as well as an extensive menu of pub food, including sliders, salads, sandwiches and sides – for lunch and dinner.
We sampled some of the house specialties at a jam-packed opening party, were impressed with the warm, woody ambience and look forward to going back for real meal from executive chef Wes Pumphrey, formerly of SLS’s The Bazaar. Boho, by the way, is derived from combining the words bohemian and Hollywood, and nice alternative to the cookie-cutter sameness of many of the chain stores in the mall.
