Love the atmosphere of this place! It has a cozy, old world meets new world, vibe!!! When I travel, I seek out unique cuisines. This menu delivers for both vegetarians and meat eaters alike with it's Isreal and Cali inspired marriage!!! The servings are an amble amount. The price point is justified with the service, presentation and flavors all being exceptional! The wine selection is fantastic and our server was both knowledgeable and informative about all the dishes. She also helped me pair my lunch perfectly with a white wine! I will be back and marked this as a to go to in my journal!

The exchange had excellent service and good food. A bit pricey, but really courteous staff.

Just tried this place for the first time a few nights ago for a coworkers holiday dinner and had such a wonderful time. At the recommendation of our server, Edwin, we ordered a bunch of different small plates for the table to share. It was the perfect way to sample the menu, and everything was delicious! **personal fave was the butternut squash tahini** Thank you again to Edwin who was lovely and joked/laughed with us the whole night, and thank you to The Exchange for the food and drinks! I'm very glad you guys are open and will definitely come again!

The first time I met bill have surcharge called health tax. Tax should be from government, they use weapons to collect tax! If the restaurant want to have surcharge please use other title.

Great cozy atmosphere. I was welcomed with smiles and great service. However, the food is just OK. Nothing spectacular that would make me dying to come back.

I chose from the DineLA menu. It was an incredible amount of food for the price. Everything I had had a bit of kick to it. My starter was an interesting assortment of pickles and olives with a spicy, crunchy shredded salad, a hummus-like spread and a warm cloud of pita. I loved the exotically spiced grilled lamb kabab with broccoli served in a shallow pot. And the dessert! My mouth had a whole new experience! The malabi was a delightful combination of flavors, textures and temperatures that I cannot describe! You have to try it! Also, the staff was very friendly and attentive. I will definitely go back.

Food was average middle eastern fare, common food you’d find at Mediterranean restaurants. Except the plates were small, the prices were excessive. Hummus was average. Kebab was bland. Given only 2 pitas for the whole table despite having ordered a whole variety of salads. Cocktail was tiny. Only saving grace the the desserts, that were original and interesting. Overall this place needs to improve if they want to market themselves as a culinary experience. Otherwise you’re better off going to any Mediterranean grill for better and better valued food

A really tasty hip place for Mediterranean/Isreali food and awesome cocktails in downtown LA. Cool decorating and nice ambiance, but a bit noisy, if you're looking for elegant privacy.

Normally I'm not a fan of wood paneling, but somehow it works in this vibrant yet cozy space. The music is set at just the right level so you're not yelling at your fellow guests. The staff were a fun and eclectic group who all seemed to work very well together. The food and cocktails were outstanding! We will definitely return.

This was quite an interesting surprise inside a boutique hotel, it is Israeli/Cali based cuisine. Despite having things like kabob, it is also vegetarian friendly too though you can easily request for grilled chicken an such to be added to their salads and quinoa bowl. I loved how fresh yet well flavored everything was.
