    Everything was perfect- from the greeting at the door to the attentive (but not intrusive) service to the thoughtfully prepared fresh food. Well worth a walk from Disney Hall.

    Loved the parking validation and convenient parking Loved the venue and ambience The food was outstanding The Hostess that greeted us was great. The waiter we had was below par. He seemed very annoyed with our party he did not refill our beverages and did not even check on us or ask if we wanted dessert.

    One of the best meals we have been served in years. Lamb chops and swordfish were exceptional. Service could not have been better. We were welcomed like friends and look forward to returning again soon. This is our "go to" spot in downtown Los Angeles.
