About the restaurant
Nestled amidst lush greenery and framed by a serene courtyard, 3 Michelin star-awarded Somni offers an oasis from the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles. Chef Zabala will redefine Somni as a personal, transportive, and emotive experience for guests, reflective of his Catalan heritage and love of Southern California which he now calls home.

Somni features an extensive tasting menu and offers seatings at both the Chef's Counter and private dining room.

Somni's 400-selection wine list highlights top producers from Spain and California as well as some of our favorite bottlings from around the world. Corkage is $150 per 750 ml (limit 2 bottles per party) for bottles not on our list. Contact us at info@somnirestaurant.com to inquire about bringing your own bottle.
Due to Somni's unique menu, we unfortunately cannot accommodate dietary restrictions, including gluten, dairy, egg, gelatin, nut allergies, or vegan, vegetarian, and no meat/seafood diets.

About the restaurant
Two simple wooden doors open up to quite a buzz in an otherwise romantic courtyard, where a colorful crowd hangs at the bar and lingers at coveted patio tables. Inside, seats spread throughout the candlelit house-turned-restaurant with intimate furniture. Organic seasonal ingredients, creatively prepared and impeccably presented, characterize our unique menu. If you do not see a reservation time for the time you would like please also check on Tock at exploretock.com/thelittledoor

A hotel guest had a medical issue that meant they needed to stay in their location occupying a portion of the living room where tea is served. Very sad unusual situation that was beyond anyone’s control. The staff went above and beyond both to make them comfortable and to take care of impacted customers for the tea. It was really impressive to see them treat the hotel guest so kindly and also to make sure that everyone at the tea who was celebrating something still felt special about the day. Hard to overstate how impressed we were with the service.

Now serving alcohol!

Located in the heart of West Hollywood, Irie Lounge and Restaurant offers guests California comfort food with a southern twist. Irie brings all of the farm to table freshness, but with the tanginess and smoked dishes that southern food is celebrated for. Our black-eyed pea hummus, dandelion Caesar salads, and dry-aged New York strip with charred treviso are dishes guests are celebrating us for.
