1. A gleaming Googie-style landmark from 1958 with a sunken bar and servers who've been pouring drinks since the Carter administration, Bastien's is the kind of mid-century steakhouse where you dress up and the martinis taste like they're mixed with purpose. The sugar steak is famous for a reason, but the real draw is the time-warp atmosphere—a family operation that's been going since the 1930s and shows no signs of trading its neon sign for anything modern.
