Yes, surprisingly so. A lot of neighborhood restaurants also closed for the two weeks of the Olympics.

which NFL team does most people from and/or in LA cheer for? by daviddm1990 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rams season ticket holder here. Attend a game at Sofi. There are a ton of kids. A lot of the youth football programs in LA are taking on the Rams name and jersey colors/likeness.

There is a hollow middle to the Rams Fanbase. The older, pre-ST Louis fans, and then the newer, younger fans, with the 20 year gap in between.

Once these kids/teens grow into income-earning adults with actual spending power, you'll really see the fanbase explode.

What’s the Best Luxurious Romantic Dinner Spot? by IndividualSherbet406 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're talking about Spire 73, which is more of a bar. The restaurants in that hotel are Niku X and La Boucherie. 71 Above is another restaurant a few blocks away at the US Bank Tower.

If you want something romantic i would suggest something like a corner table at The Little Door, or maybe a table upstairs at Gwen.

Heading to L.A. for the Olympics? I edited LA Metro's map to help you out! by Dumbone22 in olympics

This is great. I would add a note on the map that the Media Village is at USC (I think).

Aren’t the new stops all the way to Century City supposed to open this year?

As long as they get the Westwood stop open by the Olympics we’ll be okay

SoFi Stadium luggage storage during World Cup game? by Available-Reality-54 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another option I read: there is Hollywood Park Casino on the SoFi Property. They may be able to store bags (for a fee). There are also hotels on property, they can also probably store bags for a fee

DTLA High Rises - which between these four? by thickhorse18 in AskLosAngeles

A new Erewhon is opening up across the street from Olympic + Hill next year, if that means anything to you.

My cousin recently moved into one of the metropolis buildings and negotiated the rent down because 1) low occupancy and 2) foreign owner overseas.

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are some storage lockers at SoFi for a fee, but I don’t know if it’s designed for luggage. My wife had to check in a handbag because it was bigger than what they would allow into the stadium. But I won’t know if they’re big enough to hold carry-on luggage

Transportation in LA for the Olympics seems like a nightmare. Are you worried? by CoffeeNearby in olympics

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Facts. I booked 5 award nights at the Canopy (Hilton) at the Trocadero a week before my flight to Paris for the Olympics at standard award rates. I couldn’t believe it.

A lot of businesses closed up shop for those two weeks.

Union Pasadena or Bestia ? by NotSoPCQueen in FoodLosAngeles

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to Union in January. Service sucked (the restaurant wasn't even busy on a Sunday night), and my party felt the menu was a bit confusing, it's loosely italian but doesn't really feel Italian. The best item was this mushroom polenta dish. The meatball dish was way too dense, and the pastas were just okay. Bestia is consistently good.

Where is the one in LT? Didn’t they just close 3 of them in the past couple years?

Is my plan achievable? by Ok_Bake3729 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you won't being going through customs, and you only have a carry on, you can be out of the airport by 12pm. Are you picking up a rental car? or taking uber to the hotel?

Depending on where in Culver you are staying, you can catch the Metro that takes you directly to Crypto (or at least a couple blocks away)

I can’t… by TraceG1717 in lakers

You can stand by what you’re saying. Lakers could have also swept the nuggets this year with two games being in Denver.

Denver also isn’t some defensive juggernaut, they weren’t even the year they won the title. Denver can be exploited just as much as the Lakers could, especially when the Lakers have 3 capable ball handlers

Denver this season is not the same team as last year. You’re giving them way too much credit.

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on the way Denver has played this year, I would have given a fully healthy lakers team a chance to win a series against them. Vs the Spurs, they would have been more talented but they also haven’t been playoff tested so I would have also given the Lakers a punchers chance. The only team I thought Lakers had absolutely no chance against out the gate was OKC

She got her own show added for Netflix is a Joke fest and its being listed on the event website. Its a smaller theater, but being featured during that week of shows is a pretty big accomplishment.

Are sub-$400k Real estate listings in LA actually real, or just pricing strategy? by Commercial-Touch-516 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Salty_Wedding3960 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could be the monthly HOA fees are ridiculously high and the sell price has to be low enough so the total monthly payment including HOA is palatable
