Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Suzanne Goin

  • Award icon
    MICHELIN Plate2022

From the OpenTable editors: AOC isn’t just a classic because of James Beard Award-winning chef Suzanne Goin’s California-French food, it also has one of the most beautiful patios in town. It’s pure romance, outfitted with a wood-fired hearth, trees, and ivy curling up the side of the restaurant. It’s the ideal place to linger over bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with Parmesan and clams sherry with green garlic—as well as a glass from co-owner Caroline Styne’s deep wine list.

    Our feelings overall were that the food was stellar A+++++ but the service was unfortunately not. The host greeting us was friendly and warm, but the actual server was aloof and borderline passive aggressive, leading to some uncomfortable moments. It's sad because both of us that were dining actually work in the service industry, so we ultimately understand the difficulty of sustaining a positive attitude in the 2025 L.A. dining scene and were bummed that we had to experience her failure to cope. We didn't let it ruin our overall experience because the food was truly amazing and the atmosphere was great - nice mood and music. But damn.. would have been nice to have been treated better, or at least as others observed.

    My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here and we couldn’t have picked a better place for it. We arrived early for a pre dinner cocktails and the drinks were delicious. The ambiance is romantic but what had us feeling over the top was the food; the fingerlings, the gnocchi, SABROSO! Everything we ordered came out quickly and honestly, was worth the steep price for small plates. I hen we finished off with desert we were completely satisfied. The wait staff was amazing; picking up empty dishes, asking for any additional food/drinks, just professional. We really enjoyed ourselves and hope to be back soon

    Wow! This is so nice, Alejandra. What a pleasure to take care of you both on a special night. Very much hope we get to see you again before the next anniversary!!

    Great food. Great service. We were still chatting and didn’t realize they were closed and they didnt rush us out. Music was low so you don’t feel like you’re yelling. And the tables are spaced out well so you’re not right on top of other parties. I feel like most tapas style restaurants are very tight and chaotic (ex: Bacari) so this was a very nice surprise. Will absolutely be back. Try the espresso martini. Most balanced cocktail I’ve had, which is hard to do because they make theirs with tequila.

    Wow! So kind of you, Taya. Please come back soon for more Espresso Jaliscos!!

    Ernell is such a great presence at AOC. We love him, the wine and the food. Arroz was a little too loose in texture, but everything else was good. Always love coming back. Vibe was quiet and subdued this evening. Thank you
    AOC - 3rd StreetResponded on June 1, 2025
    This is lovely, Carols. Thanks so much. Sorry the arroz wasn't the way you like it - don't ever hesitate to let us know in the moment. Always happy to to adjust or replace. Appreciate the love for the vibe and will be sure to let Ernell and the team know about the kind shout out.

    Patio was closed , because not busy enough , that was a little disappointing ..
    AOC - 3rd StreetResponded on June 1, 2025
    Thanks for the stars, Xavier! Sorry about the patio. Because we're open seven days, we try to take advantage of the occasional quiet night to get in some repairs and upkeep. Takes a lotta work to maintain that beautiful old courtyard.
