"Sitting on the Red Line reminds me of NYC. No other place comes close to the awesomeness of NYC, but the Red Line tends to have the same smell and awkwardness of some NYC subs!" -- Dustin Ma
"The lobby of the Roosevelt hotel. It has fantastic architecture similar to a great many old and amazing buildings in NYC. I could spend days there." -- Kali Chan
"Bottega Louie reminds me of NYC. It's got such a classy layout but has a melting pot of people that are eating there. Reminds me of being in NY!" -- Michele Serafini Nilsen "Bottega Louie. Total NYC vibe. Almost feels like I'm sitting in Midtown Manhattan." -- Cari Hah
"Definitely Downtown around LA Live. Between the lights, tall buildings and hot dog carts, one might possibly feel for a brief second they are in 'the' city. Can you tell I'm partial to NY? It will always be home to me." -- Jessica Caviness
"The Varnish, since their handmade, artisanal cocktails are created by the same guys behind NY's Milk & Honey. But keep it on the DL. I've already said too much." -- Kika Davis
"To me, The Edison is New York because you would never expect to find what you do on the inside, based on the outer appearance of the spot , as is most of NY." -- Chiara Greene
"Village Pizzeria on Larchmont reminds me of NYC because the owner is from New York and the pizza tastes the closest to New York pizza." -- Stephanie Lynn Erney
