République in Los Angeles offers a sophisticated dining experience that artfully combines French culinary tradition with modern flair. Housed in a historic 1929 building originally constructed by Charlie Chaplin, the restaurant’s design features soaring ceilings, exposed brick walls, and gothic arches, creating a dramatic and inviting atmosphere. The space is divided into a bustling café and bakery at the front, transitioning into a more formal dining area toward the rear, providing a versatile setting for various dining occasions.

The menu at République, crafted by chefs Walter and Margarita Manzke, showcases a commitment to seasonal, locally sourced ingredients prepared with French technique and global influences. Signature dishes include the kimchi fried rice topped with short rib and a soft fried egg, and the foie gras terrine accompanied by seasonal fruit compote and freshly baked baguette. For dessert, the salted caramel chocolate cake is a standout, offering a rich balance of sweet and salty flavors.
