République, located in Miracle Mile, is owned by Chefs Walter and Margarita Manzke. Centered in the heart of Los Angeles, the historic building in which it resides was originally erected in 1929 by Charlie Chaplin, and later transformed into the iconic La Brea Bakery and Campanile Restaurant. République builds on this storied past, offering a gastronomic environment imbued with history and grandeur. The space features a casual bakery, café, and bar in the front with a more formal dining area located in the rear, serving a French-inspired menu created daily by our chefs.

In 2023, Chef Margarita won a James Beard Award for Outstanding Pastry Chef or Baker for her work at République.

Celebrate Valentine’s Day at République with a seasonal tasting menu from Chefs Walter and Margarita Manzke, our favorite husband-and-wife team, thoughtfully crafted with exceptional ingredients to set the stage for a memorable evening together.

Host an elevated dinner party at one of our Kitchen Tables or in our cozy Alcove, a welcoming setting for groups of 8–16 guests. This experience is designed for guests to relax and enjoy a multi-course, family-style meal served to share, featuring a curated selection of République’s most beloved seasonal dishes. Whether celebrating a milestone, hosting colleagues, or gathering with friends, the evening offers a warm, communal dining experience at $135 per person.
