BarToni's took just a few months to make a complete transformation in North Hollywood, and the results are glorious. Helmed by Aidan Demarest, who shuttered his passion project Neat earlier this year, BarToni's is the ideal complement to the iconic late night Little Toni's to which it is attached. Touting a similar Old World aesthetic, but with some shinier bits, it's the ideal kind of place for a night cap. The design comes from Ricki Klein, while owner Mitch Rotner continues to run the operation at Little Toni's as a whole.
As for the drink list, Demarest has a very reasonably priced selection of classics and some originals. Consider a Northside, mixing Broker's gin, lime, cucumber, and fresh basil, or a refreshing Caipirinha with Lebon caçaca, both of which run $10. The Italian-American Reconciliation, which stirs up Old Overholt with two Italian amari, is a more original tipple you can have after a gut-busting pizza. Cocktailians will be happy to see the grasshopper "stolen" from Portland's Jeffrey Morgenthaler, which blends creme de cacao and menthe with fernet branca and Aviation gin. See the full menu below.
Open Monday to Saturday, 5 p.m. to 2 a.m., and Sunday from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m.
