Julian Cox
Legendary Los Angeles barman Julian Cox is readying his next project, a Hollywood Media District hangout called simply the Hideout. The bar and restaurant resides in the same building as the new Tartine there, and is just steps from Sightglass on the corner, splashy French hangout Gigi’s across the street, and a new Mizlala at the other end of the block.

Reps for the Hideout tell Eater that Cox’s new project will mostly focus on a truncated cocktail menu with eight to 10 rotating drinks at any one time, plus wine and beer. There will be food in the form of Spanish-style bar snacks, though this is decidedly a bar first, at least in terms of feel. Cox has partnered with Alex Marchesini, formerly of Portland and the person behind spots like Thelonious Wines and Arden up in PDX though of late he’s been running the show at Native Wine Company.
