About
Like the better-known MacArthur Park/Westlake outpost, this Pacific Dining Car specializes in juicy slabs of beef. Order a prime corn-fed U.S.D.A. steak grilled to order over mesquite hardwood charcoal, and savor the taste of a top-notch L.A. steakhouse. 24 hours and a cozy bar with rustic-themed prints on the walls. Seen from Wilshire Boulevard, this place, which opened in 1990, has always seemed so forbidding: a concrete bunker with no way to peer inside. Step up to the entrance, though, and there is a bit of ornament: opaque windows framed in metal to suggest a railroad car. At the original downtown, which opened in 1921, and where the booths are favorites with politicos and stockbrokers, the interior replicates a railroad dining car, but here it's just an exterior suggestion.

There's not a Hummer in sight. No babes in flirty dresses. No phalanx of valets sprinting to get your car. No guy with a clipboard...
