Negroni Bistro & Bar

When this upscale Argentinian chain restaurant opened up on West Third Street, we were cautiously optimistic about the eclectic, globally inspired mix of sushi, salads and wood-fired seafood and meat dishes being served. Unfortunately, the fare served here is the worst version of global fusion we've yet to encounter in Los Angeles. Even the decent cocktails can't make up for the mealy sushi rice, forgettable entrées and slapdash desserts. The space itself may be pretty, but do yourself a favor and head literally anywhere else—your wallet and tastebuds will thank you.
