Dining in a strip-mall restaurant is a quintessentially L.A. experience, and this Valley spot delivers. As the name suggests, Posto 896 serves two menus — one Italian and one Hungarian — but you might just have more fun exploring the latter. Think sour cherry soup, chicken paprikash, homemade poppyseed noodles, stuffed cabbage, and schnitzel — you’ll be hard-pressed to find such homey-tasting staples elsewhere.
