All-night diner Kitchen 24 opened recently in Hollywood’s Cahuenga corridor. The 3,400-square-foot eatery features booth seating for 100 and 17-foot ceilings. Kristofer Keith from Spacecraft (whose other projects include Goa and Ortalon) is behind the venue’s retro diner look, which includes terrazzo and chrome touches, and a horseshoe-shaped bar. The mezzanine houses a DJ booth in a nod to the venue’s musical tradition—the space was once home to 1960s jazz club Shelly’s Manne-Hole.Executive chef David Rosenberger’s menu of diner cuisine includes savory herb crepes, nicoise salad, and grilled New York strip steak. Breakfast and lunch items are available any time. An extensive cocktail list includes colorfully named drinks like the Cahuenga Morning (champagne, amaretto, raspberry puree, pineapple juice, and orange juice) and the Dark ’n’ Stormy (rum, ginger beer, fresh lime, and elderflower).
