La Copine

Nikki Hill and Claire Wadsworth started La Copine in 2015. They had just gotten married and wanted to re-create the night they met, so they started this eclectic, casual, IYKYK restaurant, which has since grown in popularity among celebs and California locals alike, and is a pillar of the California queer scene.
