Republique

Description

République, located in mid-city, is owned by Chef Walter Manzke and Chef Margarita Manzke. Centered in the heart of Los Angeles, the iconic building was originally erected in 1929 as Charlie Chaplin’s offices, which were then transformed into La Brea Bakery and Campanile. République builds on this storied past with its latest incarnation, offering the public a gastronomic environment of history and grandeur, featuring open kitchens and a bakery, charcuterie counter and raw bar. The space has been restored with original fixtures, period lighting, bar stools and reclaimed wood tables using materials from the same decade that the building was originally erected, while preserving and highlighting the classic architecture from the 1920’s structure.
