The Entourage Guide To LA Slideshow

Urth Caffe

The original Melrose Ave location of Urth Caffe is the perfect place to spot actors of all statuses — from A-listers getting their Spanish latte to waiters reading a script on their off hours — and it's one location that Entourage has favored over the years. They were once fond of Toast, but their loyalties have, like those of LA locals, with Urth Caffe. 

Tropicana Bar at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel

The boys of Entourage love the Tropicana Bar at the Roosevelt so much they even held a cast party when a past season wrapped. Where Teddy's was once the bar of choice in the hotel's lobby, scene-sters have now migrated to the Tropicana Bar for its outdoor, poolside location. 

Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf

With cafes on every corner, one Entourage scene pokes fun at one fashionable corner in Beverly Hills that boasts a Starbucks and Coffee Bean on the same intersection. The boys sit in Coffee Bean (undoubtedly the superior choice) waiting for Ari who sits across the street in Starbucks. This Coffee Bean (like a few others in Hollywood and Brentwood) is a surefire celeb-sighting spot. 

Geoffrey's Malibu

For an episode in season eight, we are told the boys trekked out to Malibu to film at Geoffrey's. Famous for their coveted view and delicious food, Geoffrey's has been pivotal to Entourage once before — as the setting of Eric's proposal to Sloan, which makes us that much more curious what will go down there this season.  

Canter's Deli

One of LA's most iconic delicatessen's, Canter's is a staple of Fairfax Ave. Open 24 hours, they serve mouth-watering and classic deli food to everyone from locals in the neighboring Jewish community to celebrities making late-night pilgrimages. Drama's made moves here more than once and it is actually true that at Canter's, you're more likely than not to spot an array of people in "the business." 

Trousdale

When they're not eating a pastrami sandwich, they're imbibing at Trousdale. For a few years now, Trousdale has held its own on LA's nightlife scene, drawing paparazzi to their curb nearly every weekend. In keeping with that reality, Vince and Sasha Grey bounced from Soho House across the street in an attempt to avoid the cameras last season.

 

 

Wolfgang's

Arguably the show's most entertaining character, Ari has one of those fantastically long drinks-dinner-drinks nights with Andrew Klein at Beverly Hill's Wolfgang's. Not to be confused with any Wolfgang Puck establishment, Wolfgang's is a sleek dark wood room serving thick cut steaks and dirty Martinis. 

Pink's Hot Dogs

In season one, Vinny, Drama, Turtle, and Eric are on top of the world, standing in line at Pink's, and bargaining with Ari for better basketball tickets. While your trip to Pink's may have more tourists than stars and conversations will be more about parking than floor seats, the trip is worth it and the scene rings true. For whatever reason, Angelenos are ever loyal to Pink's.   

STK

Eric has been to STK more than once during the eight seasons of Entourage, but perhaps most notably when he breaks it off with Ashley. The type of restaurant that could easily be converted into a nightclub, STK is more about the scene than the food, much like neighboring Koi, where the boys dined in the show's pilot and again in season two.  

SLS Beverly HIlls

Bouchon and The Ivy may be celebrity staples in LA (and both have appeared on the show), but the promise of a scene or two at the flashy, modern SLS Hotel in season eight has us excited. We just wonder what they'll do when they're served José Andrés' innovative plates at The Bazaar.  

Drai's

Spotting the boys at Voyeur has always been easy, but the pool and nightclub at Drai's Hollywood quickly became their new hangout. They started filming there almost immediately after it's opening last season when Maria Meneunos interviews Vince. 

Café 101

A '70s-style café with milkshakes, rock walls, brown leather banquettes, and silver dollar pancakes from the griddle, Café 101 was notably where Turtle's credit card was declined in season seven. It is one of those cafes that locals have latched onto and never let go of. Go for the breakfast.
