Only thing that wasn’t great was our table and one of the chairs was right in the middle of where people were passing by so it felt like we were in the way. Also the chairs were uncomfortable

Everyone who served us that evening were polite and informative about both our drinks and our meals. The only drawback that I would state is that we had a table for two and asked for outside seating. While I know that is not guaranteed, the table they attempted to see us at was all the way in a corner near the servers input station. So basically as you are dining on your meal, there are going to be numerous servers passing you through the night punching in orders and creating tickets. I immediately declined the table and requested another table to which I was giving a table top. I think that placing a two party table within elbows reach of the service station it’s just trying to force room and sometimes it is not a good idea. But other than that it was most enjoyable.

Oh well, guess I should of brought my own cake or something. Other than that food was ok. Neither great nor bad. The selection of proteins is very specific, pork loin, whole branzino, Wagyu beef and lamb. Other than that no other options. Pizza is just pizza. Pasta had good flavor although the selection was very limited. Ambiance is cool. Btw, valet is $10. Definitely feels more like a cocktail kind of spot.

The employees work at impressive speeds and not one detail was missed. The food was unreal - everything was perfectly fresh, simple and perfectly cooked. I will dream about the herb Ceasars and lamb lettuce wraps. Overall amazing experience, highly recommend.

Favorite dish was the bone marrow, but everything we ordered was excellent!! Homemade ricotta was very refreshing, mussels were actually a bit spicy but had an amazing sauce. The Branzino was perfectly cooked with a great mix of spices (though a little bit salty/sour in some parts if there was not enough sweeter spices counteracting it). Would go back again next time I’m in LA!

I always get the classic roasted marrow bone and it is always delicious. Also really recommend the scallop crudo and chicken gizzards!

The branzino is heavily seasoned, might come off to some as too salty. Chicken gizzards as an appetizer is/was the chef favorite. Service at times can be somewhat lacking, long waits in between dishes and difficult to flag someone down.
