This sultry little tapas bar tucked into a corner on the Miracle Mile has a sexy European feel, with candlelit tables, polished wood, and cigar box covers hammered into the wall. Along the entrance, a polished bar turns out pitchers of sangria and cool mojitos to a crowd of young Hollywood executives and patrons of the adjacent theater. Small dining tables dot the room where modelesque waiters serve small plates of artisanal Spanish cheeses, grilled shrimp, and skirt steak. Cobra Lily is the perfect launching point for a spirited evening or a swinging post-work happy hour.
