DTLA is all about reinvention. Public School 213 is a brilliant exercise in
taking a great idea and making it better in every conceivable way. How
many times in life do you get to not only think of the “if only” of an existing space but execute them? As PS 213, this now fully-configured gastropub features a wrap around bar and dining area, abundant natural light
complemented with butcher block high-boy tables, retro upholstered bar
stools and dark-stained wood plank floors. The feeling is both casual and
upscale. The menu has grown up too. While the previous incarnation (PS
612) was a perfectly enjoyable beer and small plates kind of a spot, but now
you can either order a quick bite or settle in for a real meal. That flexibility
and it’s easily accessible corner location makes it very appealing to both
the financial district lunch and after hours crowd as well as the local loft and
apartment dwellers. Got to love a place with a daily happy hour that runs
from 4 pm – 7 pm.
