- JJulieSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food was amazing, from appetizers (FIG AND HONEY BRIE CROSTINI, SMOKED SALMON CUCUMBER WEDGES), through entrees (AUSTRALIAN SEA BASS, SALMON FILET) to dessert (CHOCOLATE MOUSSE, CREME BRÛLÉE). Definitely try the basil mojito. The service was prompt and attentive without being obtrusive. While not inexpensive, it’s not extravagant. We’ll be back.More infoThe Little Gem RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Oak Park•4.6
