Chaplin&#8217;s courtyard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Few Los Angeles restaurants carry as much culinary weight per square meter as R\u00e9publique. By day it is arguably the city&#8217;s most serious bakery; by night, a French restaurant of real ambition \u2014 and both live inside a 1929 landmark built for Charlie Chaplin, under soaring brick arches that once housed the legendary Campanile.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_story\"><\/span>The story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Chefs Walter and Margarita Manzke opened R\u00e9publique on La Brea in the Miracle Mile area, layering their own chapter onto a storied address. Walter runs the savory side with classic French technique and Californian produce; Margarita&#8217;s pastry program earned her the James Beard Award for Outstanding Pastry Chef in 2023 after years of consecutive nominations. The result is a rare all-day restaurant where the croissant and the tasting menu are held to the same standard.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_order\"><\/span>What to order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Morning: anything from the pastry case \u2014 butter-lacquered croissants, kouign-amann, seasonal fruit tarts. Brunch has cult status, led by the kimchi fried rice with a fried egg and the shakshouka baked in its skillet. At dinner the menu turns properly French: escargots, handmade pastas, market fish and dry-aged steaks, with Walter&#8217;s multi-course tasting menu appearing on Thursdays. Whatever you do, do not leave without something from Margarita&#8217;s dessert list.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_space\"><\/span>The space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A cathedral-like hall of brick archways, skylights and tiled floors, with the bakery counter and open kitchen up front and a moodier, candlelit dining room in the back. The bones of the 1929 building do half the atmospheric work; the buzz of a full house does the rest.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_its_for\"><\/span>Who it&#8217;s for<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Pastry pilgrims, brunch devotees willing to queue, Francophiles who want technique over trend, and anyone marking an occasion that calls for a serious wine list.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Do I need a reservation?<\/strong> For dinner, yes \u2014 book ahead. Daytime bakery and brunch run on a walk-in basis, so expect a line at weekend peak.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the difference between day and night?<\/strong> Daytime is counter-ordered caf\u00e9 and bakery dining; at night the room converts to full-service French dinner with a different menu.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the one unmissable dish?<\/strong> At brunch, the kimchi fried rice; at dinner, whatever cut is on the dry-aged steak list \u2014 plus a pastry regardless of the hour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there a tasting menu?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 Chef Walter&#8217;s multi-course tasting menu runs on Thursday evenings, built around weekly market finds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it good for vegetarians?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 the menu always carries vegetable-forward plates, pastas and salads, and the bakery is a meat-free feast in itself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Opening_hours\"><\/span>Opening hours<span
