Vatra
Go here when you are on a date or dinner with friends.
Vatra is a new modernist grillhouse in eastern Arcadia along Indian School in what used to be a gas station. The building has been modernized beautifully and the main eating area, the bar and the patio are well organized.
Update Vatra has closed and re-opened as Kitchen 56.

Patio There is a large patio which borders the bar. The bar runs the length of the building and opens into the patio. It is a nice setting.
